The Bricks, Strange Wool, Wicked Shallows

[DINGY GARAGE] Just when you thought garage rock was a worthless corpse, fleeced too many times to count…well, it still is. But the Bricks pull some moves akin to Clorox Girls, or a stripped down Woolen Men, in that there's just enough punk injected into all that garage to get over. Strange Wool offers up a spacier vibe than the headliners, adding some keyboard to better fill out its reasonably sparse rock action. And opening the evening, Wicked Shallows seems to have picked up on whatever all those Epitaph bands put down when everyone thought that slowing compositions and adding a fiddle made them adroit songwriters. DAVE CANTOR. Kelly's Olympian, 426 SW Washington St. 9 pm. $5. 21+.

Jackson Boone, Souvenir Driver, Boone Howard

[COSMIC ROCK] Jackson Boone's Natural Changes is a formidable local record of the year candidate, built of experimental folk and floating psychedelia. Recorded at the Oregon coast, the album sounds like many of the titles suggest ("Strawberry Vibes," "Secret Capricorn," "Moonbeam"). Pioneering psych-rock acts like the Zombies and Roky Erickson can be heard in Boone's mushy, kaleidoscopic sound. It's a hypnotic, fluid acid-trip of a record late-era Beatles lovers would be wise to procure. MARK STOCK. Mississippi Studios, 3939 N Mississippi Ave. 9 pm. $5. 21+.
