CLEANTEETH Confirms May Tour In Advance Of Debut LP


Brooklyn-based CLEANTEETH this week confirms the band’s most intensive tour to date this May, in advance of their pending debut LP.

CLEANTEETH's highly-anticipated first album Pushing Rope demands attention, with forty-two minutes of sinister doom metal combined with bruising rhythms and raucous swells played on four stacks higher than the tallest band member. Within the first ten seconds of Pushing Rope, thunderous riffs echo out of three guitars while ominous licks force heads to bang with rhythmic precision. Fans will recognize influences ranging from Will Haven, KEN Mode, Harkonen and Harvey Milk to Breather Resist, Gaza, and Godflesh, yet CLEANTEETH's sound is uniquely its own; a crushingly beautiful array of electric noise and soul-punching drum beats that will make you want to break something and come back frothing at the mouth for more. Pushing Rope will be available on vinyl from Dullest Records in the coming weeks; stay tuned for further details.

Formed in 2008, CLEANTEETH is a massive sonic quintet comprised of veterans in the New York metal scene, featuring members of Goes Cube, Hull, Destructo Swarmbots, Godmaker, and White Widows. You can catch these auditory titans out on the road when they embark on the ten-day Crush Your Teeth Tour this May, alongside city/scene mates Meek Is Murder on select dates.

CLEANTEETH: Thunderous Brooklyn Quintet Preparing For 2013 Takeover


Be prepared to have your face peeled back by Brooklyn-based quintet CLEANTEETH; a collective of veteran musicians with previous attachments to notable acts Destructo Swarmbots, Hull and more, as well as current members of Goes Cube and White Widows.

Formed in early 2008 as an experimental noise project, CLEANTEETH has since evolved into a crushing array of loud rock, doom metal and electronic noise, influenced by the likes of Karp, Butthole Surfers, Godflesh and My Bloody Valentine, yet with a crushing, sinister, post-hardcore edge fans of Kiss It Goodbye, Breach and Will Haven can get down with. Following a three-song demo recorded with Brendan Tobin (Made Out Of Babies, Red Sparowes) on Halloween of 2009, the outfit’s underwent several personnel expansions, the current lineup just one member short of a six-pack now complete.

Now, bringing forth their triple-guitarist attack boasting more full-stacks than band members, CLEANTEETH takes a wall-of-sound approach to creating its own bastard blend of thunderous riffage. With this ruthless faction continually raiding clubs throughout the NYC area and beyond, the band has shared beer-soaked stages with Eyehategod, Kylesa, Priestess, Saviours, Harvey Milk, All Pigs Must Die, Narrows, Trap Them and many others, and will continue to bleed ears dry as new gigs are being devised for the coming months and through 2013.

CLEANTEETH recently recorded their debut LP which will be released in early 2013 on a label to be confirmed in the near future. Stay tuned. In the meantime check out newly acquired live footage of the unit destroying Saint Vitus Bar as direct support for Eyehategod at the end of November via Metal Injection.

CLEANTEETH lineup:

James O'Brien - guitar
John McKinney - guitar and throat
Pete Ross - guitar and throat
Drew Mack - bass and throat
Kenny Appell - drums and beard
