Eight Gigs: Sneeze Attack
Fri., July 31, Naked Lounge, $5
This pop-punk band featuring Hans White and Dino is like candy for the ears—the kind of sweet stuff that goes down sugary but sticks to your teeth and probably keeps you amped for hours on end. Think Jesus and Mary Chain or Dum Dum Girls-styled reverb and fuzz layered with charmingly off-kilter melodies and vocals that ricochet from totally chill to totally angst-ridden. Basket House and Nicholas Sanders are also on the bill. 1111 H Street, http://sneezeattack.bandcamp.com.
