POST-HARDCORE
Kane Hodder
The last time Tacoma got a chance to see Kane Hodder was April 13 at Supernova Hair and Tattoo. The Bremerton scream rockers were shooting a video for the song “Siberia 1908,” which will show up on a soon to be released digital EP Kane Hodder is currently preparing for, though no official announcement has been made from the band about a possible release date, title, or track listing.

Tonight, Tacoma will get its next chance to see Kane Hodder, this time at the up and coming all-ages venue the Viaduct. Joined by Rough Chukar, Dressed to Kill and As Far as Foxes Go, this is just another in a growing list of shows that proves the Viaduct is for real. â€" Matt Driscoll

POP
Debra Arlyn
OK, kiddies.  Enough of that rock stuff.  Organized noise, that’s all it is.  It’s not even that organized.  Noise, that’s all it is.  Pop music, man, the music of sex and love and sex â€" that’s where it’s at.  Don’t hate, man, don’t hate.  It’s all about love.  Love!  Are you against love?  Peace, love and happiness.  If you come to see Debra Arlyn, you’ll get to hear some great Portland pop (with a little disco, actually) music. OK, I’ll come clean … she adds a little heartache. But it’s because of love. Now all we need is some love ... love ... hmm ... all we need is love … â€" Suzy Stump
