    Hygienic Rock Haus takes place Saturday in NL's Crocker House Ballroom

    Blending the bewitching and disparate sounds of old and new, the Hygienic presents five intoxicating area acts Saturday for the annual Rock Haus concert — and this year's lineup is a classic.

    Dogbite (7 p.m.), Burnouts From Outer Space (9 p.m.) and The Hempsteadys (11:30 p.m.) represent a more recent generation of New London bands, while The Cartoons (8 p.m.) and The New Johnny 5 (10 p.m.) are two of the most iconic groups in the region's music history.

    It's going to be good all night, but pay special attention to the Burnouts' set. After months — even years — of rumors and anticipation, they're readying a spring release of a new album with 10 never-released tracks ranging from balladry and driving rockers to more ethereal cloud-surf extravaganzas.

    Rock Haus, 7 p.m. Saturday, Crocker House Ballroom, 35 Union St., New London; $10; (860) 443-8001, hygienicart.org.
