MUSIC

Miike Snow The Swedish trio brings its sneakily addictive synth pop to the second show of a sold-out, three-night run in Los Angeles. The two producers of the band, Pontus Winnberg and Christian Karlsson, had a hand in the best Britney Spears song to date, “Toxic” — maybe they’ll wedge a lick or two from that epic jam into their set. The Music Box at Henry Fonda, 6126 Hollywood Blvd. 8 p.m. $23.50. (323) 464-0808.
