Tinsel Teeth - 10/4

Great female-fronted band out of Providence on Load Records - TINSEL TEETH. They have an insane live show and blew us away last time they were here opening for White Mice.

“Like a few Providence bands before them, Lightning Bolt & Drop Dead, Tinsel Teeth put on a real ‘hands on’ live show. Typically performing on the floor rather than a stage. The band is in your face, sitting on your chest, and probably covering you in what you hope is FAKE blood and has you tripping over what you think may have been a dildo that had just flown off the singers’ mostly nude body. It is a rarity to see a female perform with such abandon, no fear, no hang-ups, just going for it. Haters be fucked. The band’s music is full-on sludgy, noise, evoking comparisons to Jesus Lizard, The Birthday Party, Rapeman, and Shellac but with an element of fright that these male fronted bands lack. I don’t know why, but the sight of a young, attractive woman seemingly abusing herself with no shame or self awareness is so much more jarring and affecting.” - skinpoison.com review

Also playing will be Daniel Francis Doyle (Austin), Short Dark Strangers (Pittsburgh w/ Jimmy Rose), Dianne Arbus (freak out grind blast band w/members of Roue, Freedom, & Jerk) and Dreaded.
