Dead Tooth
Down the lost highway of damning self-indictments and apocalypse paralysis, there’s a party happening. That party is the eponymous debut full-length from NYC’s premier rodeo-core outfit, Dead Tooth.
This album fearlessly plays out like a 90s blockbuster, replete with grandiose melodrama, black humor and larger-than-life character arcs. As near atonal hooks escape from frontman Zach Ellis’s taut vocal cords, they echo a world where global and personal crises collide. Like that chalk-white iceberg into the belly of the RMS Titanic. With mother nature on the skids and humanity floundering in desperation, Dead Tooth sets the scene in a medium of heart pounding, menacing rock music.
Dead Tooth began as a collaboration between Ellis and DIIV guitarist Andrew Bailey when both worked at the same diner in Brooklyn NY. The project soon built into a four-piece that released the EPs Still Beats (2018, Five Kill Records) and Pig Pile (2022, Trash Casual) earning acclaim from NME, Spin, New Noise and more. Since then, a handful of different iterations and players have cycled through the project with Ellis always at the helm. This record features Ellis (vocals/rhythm guitar),Taylor Mitchell (lead guitar), John Stanesco (EWI/saxophone), James Duncan (bass) Ginno Tacsiat (drums) and harnesses an irrepressible, pell-mell sense of urgency one could only find in New York's underbelly.
