[post-rock] (2022) Pianos Become the Teeth - Drift [FLAC] [DarkAngie]

      (2022) Pianos Become the Teeth - Drift

Review:
Baltimore quintet Pianos Become the Teeth have made quite a progression in their 16 years as a band, from humble beginnings cutting teeth in the early aughts post-hardcore scene that birthed bands like La Dispute, Touché Amoré, The Saddest Landscape, and Defeater, among others, to their now polished and matured alt-rock sound. Incredibly influenced by post-rock from the beginning, the band’s new album Drift sees them leaning into that realm more than we’ve seen them do before. Utilizing intense builds and crescendos, dynamic production, and progressive pacing makes for quite a moody, explosive record. A majority of the music within Drift was recorded in analog while being run through a 1960’s Echoplex tape echo, which results in a very pure sonic quality. At the same time, certain aspects of songs are skewed and altered to produce various audial elements. It makes for a unique listening experience and an enjoyable one as well. The drums in “Genevieve” are rapid and fast-paced, which kicks off the song perfectly. They also serve as the foundation from beginning to end with the other instruments feeding off the beats and fills. “Hate Chase” is another intense one that’s probably the closest thing to a punk rock song you’re ever going to hear from this band. Other highlights include “The Tricks”, “Easy”, “Mouth”, and “Skiv”. — northerntransmissions.com
