Test Plan: “My Teeth”

Tracks
Written By Michael Gutierrez

This song rips live. Saw this trio test plan at New Colossus Fest. As soon as the main riff kicked off, the guitarist and bassist gave the drummer a big toothy grin, and for the next three minutes or so the room convulsed in time to a short narrative about dental trauma. Loud, fast, hard post punk that always knows where the hidden panic button is located. Strap in.
