By Chris Bryson<\/strong><\/p>\n Over the years and to the present Animal Teeth have been honing and refining their craft through dedication to an established and flexible sound.<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span>Animal Teeth have always accompanied an underlay of haunted aesthetic with their ever-expanding form of dreamy sadcore indie pop-rock. Like the echoed and churning, bristling and fuzzy cavernous expanse of their cover of Grizzly Bear\u2019s \u201cDeep Sea Diver\u201d from <\/span>Teefe<\/span><\/i>, or the slow progression and smoked-out haze of \u201cDeep Sea Diver\u201d follow-up track, \u201cSleep\/Dream\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n From the glitchy electronics of \u201cSwimming\u201d to the sprawling splendor of <\/span>Happy To See You <\/span><\/i>standout, \u201cTranscendentist\u201d, whose instrumentals give the semblance of early Modest Mouse caught in the fluid and fervid moments before a signature grandstand Isaac Brock freak-out, the band have pronounced their darkened aesthetic in fine and variable ways.<\/span><\/p>\n The three new preview tracks from Animal Teeth\u2019s upcoming release <\/span>A List of Things to Say <\/span><\/i>stay within this realm. The slow folk waltz of \u201cMade My Bed\u201d hosts Stefan Hodges\u2019 low croon amidst subtle and soothing guitars and pattering drums.<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span>\u201cWhen You\u201d features sparse and flowing guitars with Hodges voice fluctuating in punctuation and momentum, emotion sifting through sound, with the lyrics \u201cwhen you come back, I hope it\u2019s the same, because everything has changed, everything is changing\u201d. The song feels whimsical and longing, lustrous yet grayscale, paradoxical in its ascent.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cGone\u201d is a sprightly number that boasts chiming guitars and earworm hooks. The song feels light and airy, spacious yet confined, and around the minute and a half mark the band breaks into a swelling Broken Social Scene-like jam, with dulcet brass billowing atop the mix. The feeling is immediate and serene, subtle, shifting and soaring \u2013 another gorgeous addition to Animal Teeth\u2019s developing catalog.<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span>A List of Things to Say <\/span>comes out on November 4<\/span>th<\/span> through Slow Shine\u00a0<\/span><\/em>Records.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n [bandcamp width=100% height=120 album=3431169546 size=large bgcol=ffffff linkcol=0687f5 tracklist=false artwork=small]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" By Chris Bryson Over the years and to the present Animal Teeth have been honing and refining their craft through dedication to an established and flexible sound. \u00a0Animal Teeth have always accompanied an underlay of haunted aesthetic with their ever-expanding form of dreamy sadcore indie pop-rock.
