Celebration, a trio from Baltimore, marries sultry and spacey vocals
to subdued rhythms, flowering guitars, and bright organ
melodies. Their songs range from wide-eyed paeans like “Evergreen” to
the more carnal rites of “Pony.” Kill Me Tomorrow is the
opposite—a trio whose brooding, paranoid art rock is
street-dirty and racked by guitar twitches, broken drums, and menacing
bass. With Seattle’s Dead Science. (Crocodile Cafe, 2200 Second Ave,
441-5611. 9 pm, $8, 21+.)
