With the release of Baring Teeth's blistering
Ghost Chorus Among Old
Ruins full-length now less than one week away, today Revolver Magazine offers up a
Stream of the release in its entirety.
Hailing from Dallas,
Texas, BARING TEETH spews forth an immersive, compelling, and wholly haunting brand of audio
Sickness fusing seemingly conflicting attributes -- streamlined songwriting and dizzying technicality, ambience and
Brute Force, density and angularity, order and chaos -- into a fully realized, cohesive listening excursion. Recently designated one of the
best Metal bands in North
Texas by The Dallas
Observer, the band's forthcoming
Ghost Chorus Among Old
Ruins long player is a
True genre-bending masterwork sure to
Floor metallers of all walks. No Clean Singing notes, "Ghost Chorus Among Old
Ruins does more than throw a fresh coat of paint on an old style; it seeks to question and re-define the
Depths and mission of death metal. In the
Process, the album submerges you in a haunting
Despair that brings a
Cold clinical chill to your bones and its mesmerizing effect lingers long after the music ends.
Feeding you
Misanthropy that blooms kaleidoscopically, it teaches that walls exist only to be mutated and destroyed until the newly
Scarred forms resemble
Nothing the mind can grasp with comfort." Elsewhere Gear Gods gushes, "BARING TEETH's sophmore slump-defier is
Ghost Chorus Among Old Ruins. It builds upon the Gorguts-inspired fractured take on
Extreme Metal that the trio executed on so well with their initial release, but adds to it a much more oppressive atmosphere not unlike Deathspell Omega's busier moments. But in contrast with many of the band's peers,
Baring Teeth have been sonically captured with a big, roomy, natural tone that makes the haunting moments gel in a way that scares the bejesus out of me when I listen with the lights off. The sound is
Akin to what you'd get if a couple seasoned jazz cats struck up an impromptu jam, and were then promptly
Possessed by the tainted soul of Lucifer, the rebel
King of Hell."
Elaborates guitarist/vocalist Andrew Hawkins of the recording, "This album was a really difficult one to make. We pushed ourselves as songwriters and as musicians, but I think the extra focus we placed on crafting a complete, focused album really paid off. Every song plays into the larger whole while still being
Brutal and catchy, and we wrote much more concertedly this time around. Our goal was to make an album that pushes the extremes of [debut full-length]
Atrophy as
Far as possible, and we're really happy with the result."
