There's nothing underground about Subterranean; this popular Wicker Park hang is neither clandestine nor below ground. On the first floor bartenders fuel an urban-outfitted crowd that's more likely to nod a head than shake a groove-thang to beats churned out by various deejays. Music acts of every flavor take the stage in the upstairs "Cabaret Room" where there's a bevy of good sightlines from the back of the room to the balcony above.

I have now seen two hip hop shows upstairs in the subterranean, both were fantastic. Great sound system! The bass does not drown out everything...
