This appropriately named Atlanta trio sounds like a College Rock compendium: The pop muscle of Teenage Fanclub, some Replacements’ rawk, some bittersweet Matthew Sweet, some Hüsker Dü propulsion. For fans of that — and if you’re not, lay down your glow-sticks and grow a pair — the band’s latest full-length, A Man, Not a Biography, may induce 120 Minutes of flannel flashbacks. A bit derivative, perhaps, but doesn’t it seem like much is in these post-everything days? With Transmission Fields and Matt MacDonald. $6-$7. The Milestone. www.themilestoneclub.com.
