Bio:: To Book PepperDome: info@pepperdomeband.com.

After being behind the drums for 14 years, a point came where John Tokarczyk decided to explore his own musical ideas. So in the fall of 2005 after playing with several bands and musicians, he decided to take destiny into his own hands and started to build the foundation that would lead to the birth of PepperDome. With a vast interest in many musical styles, it was quickly apparent that this project would be very different than anything else John was involved in. Although most would categorize the music as rock, there are so many influences taken from around the world it is near impossible to categorize the sound created. “Chaos Point”, the third installment in PepperDome’s journey, marks a stronger, more passionate, and an unmatched intensity than any of it’s predecessors. A chaos point can be seen as a point in one’s life to ponder, decide, and move forward in a new and different direction. This album has done just that. Be assured, the solid song writing, in your face lyrics, intensity, quirk, and power that was PepperDome is still here. “Chaos Point” takes that knowledge and reincarnates it into a newer stronger self. The song writing process is modified. The strength to say what needs to be said is larger. The musical strokes are broader. The entire presentation is brought to an entire new level. “This is PepperDome’s chaos point”, John explains. “Everything we do in life eventually hits a point where things have to change or else there is a potential of becoming old and stale. All change creates new opportunities.” This music is the product of that opportunity. The music is lethal. It’s passion catches you right at your core and demands attention. Still riding at a faster tempo, the forceful dynamics are clear and fluent. The phrasing is new and exciting. What you hear will without a doubt get your attention. Powerful messages will always be a part of every PepperDome installment. This one is no different. Although a short six song EP, “Chaos Point” touches on our abuse of sexuality with the media and our corrupt political system. There are also messages about taking a stand in your life, personal expression, and how someone else controlling your life can affect not only you, but also the people around you. “Chaos Point” is not for the lighthearted shallow souls. It is for the people that are tired of today’s society and are ready for change. In our current music environment PepperDome’s “Chaos Point” pushes the limits of what we are used to hearing. With passion and a clear message, “Chaos Point” will make you stop, listen, and think.

"I hear the music and imagine clowns, jesters, and jugglers with dark garments and evil grins bouncing about a sawdust circle."

"It just has a rock solid, full tilt indie rock groove to it that is highly original & unpredictable in nature."
- January 30, 2011, Cyrus Rhodes, Indie Music Digest

"They are way to bizarre not to like."
