Eight Gigs: Mondo Deco

Thu., Mar. 2, 8 p.m., Press Club, $6-$10

Mondo Deco’s new album Death Rattle Roll drops March 2 and it’s having a release party to celebrate. Ten feverish songs make for a breakneck album that is revved up and bursting with cavalier enthusiasm for all that makes power pop rock. Chunky guitar riffs, in-your-face bass and raucous drums make one think of garage rock that has been spiffed up and spit shined, while the silver-tongued preen of the lead vocals remind us that all garages have a little bit of dirt around the edges. Sun Valley Gun Club and Dog Rifle are also playing. 2030 P Street, www.mondodecomusic.com.
