The band, who have already been championed by both the NME and Spin magazine, has also announced an extensive European tour which takes in three UK dates in November on 15th at the London’s Shacklewell Arms, 16th in Manchester at Big Hands and 17th at Nottingham’s Saltbox.
Dead Tooth’s sound brings a welcome discordance to a dystopian landscape. The self-proclaimed “rodeo-core” quintet from Queens NY weaves high energy hooks, brazen lyrics, anddirty sax leads into a refreshingly unhinged live show that’s earned them comparisons to acts like Refused, At the Drive In and The Jesus Lizard. The band have been on the road for most of the past 2 years that has included runs with Bass Drum Of Death, The Bobby Lees, Dino Gala and and two triumphant SXSW performances.
Dead Tooth also release a new single ‘Birthday Boohoo’ on 18th October via Greenway Records. Dead Tooth are Zach Ellis (guitar/vox), James Duncan (bass), Taylor Mitchell (guitar), Ginno Tacsiat (drummer) and John Stanesco (saxophone/EWI).
‘Birthday Boohoo’ is being released on 7” vinyl, has been produced by Tom Beaujour (Nada Surf, Pom Pom Squad, Juliana Hatfield) with a remix by A Place To Bury Strangers vocalist Oliver Ackermann as the B-Side.
"This is our most collaborative piece of music to date. It kind of feels like something we molded out of clay together; each one of our hands shaping it in some way. To have a song so representational of the group being put out on this really unique & beautiful vinyl feels very special. The song itself couldn’t be more a Frankenstein level horror unless of course you gave it to someone like Ollie from A Place to Bury Strangers to really chop and screw. Happy Halloween”.
