Vomitface Vomitface . . . huh, reminds me of something familiar, can’t put my fing . . . WAIT! Is this grunge? Let’s dust off the old checklist. Quiet-before-the-storm song structure? Check! From Seattle? Nope, says right here: New York City. No, Vomitface, you’re not grunge. However, like myself, you may have delusions of grungeurR. Either way, these tracks definitely got that Kurt bleach on them. With So Pitted. All ages. WL The Vera Project, 305 Harrison St. (Seattle Center), Seattle, WA 98109 $8 Monday, April 27, 2015, 7pm

Lightning Bolt Legend has it that when Lightning Bolt played No Space (now Cairo) in 2003, they set up in the middle of the steep section of Summit Avenue out front while a writhing mosh-mob all but engulfed them. Police came and calmly observed; everything was cool, yet no face was left unmelted by their signature staccato berserker. To this day, I’m still aghast at how two men can produce such a stampeding barrage of calamity. It’s akin to watching a fireworks factory combust. Sadly, I bet Neumos makes them play on the stage again-which will be a shame, but still totally worth it. With Liturgy. All ages. WL Neumos, 925 E.

Pony Time It only could have been fate that brought us the rocking two-piece Pony Time. Luke Beetham (bass) and Stacy Peck (drums) met in 2009 moving a stereo for a mutual friend. “I saw that Stacy had a strong back, so I was, like, why not offer her a job?” (Beetham owns an electric repair shop). The two became roommates and naturally asked themselves “Why not play music together?” They accidentally became Pony Time. And the rest was disco/garage-rock history. With The Ghost Ease, Mommy Long Legs. 21 and over. DML The Highline, 210 Broadway Ave. E., Seattle, WA 98102 $7 Tuesday, April 28, 2015, 9:30pm
