Pop music: MGMT at the Greek Theatre
POP MUSIC
After delivering a left-field hit with 2008’s “Oracular Spectacular,” MGMT earned its license to dive off the deep end. And lo, did it take its label up on it with “Congratulations,” a sprawling mix of Devo-inspired kitsch-punk, chocolate-fountain yacht rock and intricately screwy psychedelics that could indicate a Pop Art band running on all cylinders — or a fascinating, career-tipping indulgence. Greek Theatre, 2700 N. Vermont Ave., L.A. 7:30 p.m. Fri. $35. (323) 665-5857.
