Far-Out Fangtooth
Pure Evil From Philadelphia
Existing in the musty shadows of the Philly scene, Far-Out Fangtooth have built a most unique foundation of sound, mixing early Cramps swamp / garage blackout, nascent Bauhaus post-punk / quasi-goth bleakness as well as an uncanny nod to the witchy, ethereal leather glam of first-generation Blue Öyster Cult. Their debut LP, Pure & Disinterested (on Siltbreeze Records), follows a limited-edition 7-inch for local label Ian! Records.
The Philly four-piece loves its ambience. Crash cymbals sound like rattling sheet metal, double-tracked guitars rumble like an amp on the fritz, and vocals wander in a nervy, unsteady baritone. Goth is the easy comparison to make — skull and crossbones show fliers and all — Fangtooth's sound hits a raw nerve in a way that surface descriptors can't sum up. Read more on Last.fm.
