No Teeth - The New Nuisance EP review

 A detective soundtrack plucked from the depths of hell.



No Teeth’s disjointed post-punk madness returns with their most confident and uncompromising release to date. The New Nuisance demonstrates and commemorates everything you need to know about Newcastle’s noisiest six-piece.


No Teeth have come a long way since songs like ‘Mother’, with this release surpassing any of their previous work by far. The band’s six-man lineup comes together to add layer upon layer to their continuously developing fury of sound. The EP’s mix allows the band’s nuances to filter through in a way that represents their musicianship much clearer than any past recording as the band indulges in juxtaposing it’s jolly melodies with an off-kilter mood. Tonally, the New Nuisance always feels like it’s on the brink of collapse.


The EP’s opener, Failing at DE, takes you on an unknowing car journey road trip that threatens you with the possibility of a fiery crash at every turn. Whilst the EP’s closer, Everything’s Better Than Meat Night, welcomes you onto it’s carousel of bouncing melodies and obscure lyrics that refuses you to gain a sense of normality. Each recording taps into the band member’s child-like sense of play with their writing and instrumentation, something seldom seen in local scenes.


The New Nuisance is now available to stream on Spotify
