Let's Try The Otherside
"PepperDome’s Let’s Try the Otherside is a blast of unrelenting social-activist hard rock that doesn’t really care what you think about it."

"...PepperDome has created a hard rock sound here that is edgy, but all the while the songs pump nothing but positive messages. So, the world of hard rock can unite with positivity....I do give props to PepperDome for killer guitar, drum and bass parts. I also give major props for this artist to come up with a genius idea of blending hard rock/alternative/progressive/new-wave with lyrics of ongoing dilemmas but performed in a light-hearted-kind-of fashion."

"…what John Tokarczyk does here is make a groove-laden disc that stands out head and shoulders above what other contemporary bands are creating…Few rock bands really exciting me now, but I feel as if Pepperdome has lit a fire underneath me. The unconventional way that they come forth on “Let’s Try The Otherside” will likely be seen as revolutionary 10 or 15 years down the road. If you like any iteration of rock, be it hard rock, metal, or anything similar, search out Pepperdome’s “Let’s Try The Otherside”."

That Little Man
"...Tokarczyk blends such things as prog scale acrobatics, double-bass drumming, a few uncommon chord progressions, and the occasional math frenzy into his hard-rock stew for sound that's not quite like anything else."

"PepperDome is one of the most infectious and groundbreaking music projects in popular music today. Do yourself a favor and take a listen...then buy the CD...then wear the T-shirt...then put PepperDome stickers all over your parent's car!"
