Grapetooth’s debut album is dancing towards us at a rapid pace. Their self-titled full length will be released next Friday, November 9th. To satisfy your spooky cravings the band dropped the official music video for "Blood" today, alongside a Noisey Next profile which heralds great new artists or "the last fun band standing."
Here's a selection of the some great quotes from said feature –
"If you aren’t smiling by the time the sing-shouted chorus hits— “I don’t mind livin’! I don’t mind givin’ it up!”—there’s a decent chance you suck."
"Grapetooth’s music is the perfect soundtrack for splitting a jug of Carlo Rossi, dancing til 5AM, and waking up on your friend’s couch clutching a half-eaten burrito and cursing whichever deity invented sunlight."
"A contender for one of the best Chicago releases of the year. Party anthems sit alongside doomy synth ballads about death."
Their latest video for "Blood" captures the intensity of the band’s sold out, raucous live shows which are quickly becoming legend. Yet again, Noisey said it best – "it’s pure new wave bliss, the kind of song that could soundtrack a prom scene in an 80s coming-of-age drama. Pop a bottle of your finest Sutter Home, have your roommate bust out the clippers for a DIY Hat Nine, and get ready to dance your ass off."
Catch Grapetooth at their hometown record release show at Thalia Hall in Chicago on 11/11. Tickets onsale now and going FAST.
