#teethforteeth

Punk vocals, post-hardcore riffs, and all the feelings of an emo band come together in teethforteeth. The Jersey-based band lays raw aggression over deeply haunting melodies for a sound that drills into your brain, making its presence known.

Brandon Waters -Vocals Anthony Burgos - Guitar, vocals Pat Fonte - Guitar, vocals Derick Rodriguez - Bass, vocals Christopher Kitchen - Drums What's your hometown (or what are your hometowns)? The majority of us live in Hammonton, NJ. Two of us live just outside of it. We all went to the same high school. The scene in Hammonton has really been growing over the last few years thanks to Grandaire Booking and a lot of awesome musicians and friends. It has become a fun place to be a band. How did the band come together? How long has it been? The band was originally Pat and Ant, and then came Brandon and Derick. Then Chris joined after the release of I Felt Like Fire. We have been together for almost three years.  How have you grown since you started? We’ve pretty much shattered most of our original goals as a band. Three years ago, we were ecstatic just to be playing shows and meeting like-minded bands. But now, our home shows are packed full and we have an actual community to call our own. For our music, the more we write, the better we can identify what works well and what our strengths are. We try to use all the tools we have to make the best songs we can. What sets you apart from other bands? I think what sets teethforteeth apart from most other heavy bands are our DIY sensibilities with recording our own music and printing our own merch. We also try to have a lot of variety in our vocal styles. Aside from that, we really shine with writing personal, vulnerable songs. We’re not at all afraid of being ourselves. We’re not hung up on being cool or tough at all.  What's the best part about being in your band? There are no ego problems. All the guys are calm, confident, and supportive. Our lead singer (Brandon) is able to step back and not be in an entire song, as long as the end result is the best song we could’ve done. It’s a stress free approach to writing.

Last month Teethforteeth released my favorite album of the year so far, There is No Separation. You can download this jawn for free on bandcamp, definitely go check it out here.

The band is influenced by a lot of different sounds, the result is some fresh noise in the post hardcore world. Listening to teethforteeth doesn't get old because their songs all have something to different to offer. 

Sounds like: sad, ambience, 90's metal core meets 2010's post hardcore.
