Milktooth

This band is awesome and full of hotties!!!!!

I was introduced to Milktooth after working with their producer and engineer Tom Laune. Being a music enthusiast I can be quite critical when sourcing good music. And this is no exception. Milktooth is a band full of raw and unique energy like I've never heard before. Throughout the entire album, the band has plenty of surprises to unfold. Songs are filled with huge dynamics and a soulful analogue feel along with sustain to last a century. With the combination of aggressive instruments and "in your face" vocals, this is one band that definitely sticks out from the crowd. Everything from production, musicianship to engineering is absolutely top-notch. If you are seeking tasteful music to add to your collection or simply need to freshen up your ears, then be sure to check out Milktooth.

I saw them live and was a little disappointed, but i only saw two memebers of the band play. so, i bought the CD and realised that it was very good! im glad that i went on my gut instinct and bought their CD anyway.

Milktooth's debut album is a dynamic inaugural effort; through the use of stark contrast, the band makes a candid record with wide accessibility and appeal. Precise musical arrangements cast the howling vocals in a feral hue lending them a candor which punctuates each song with lyrical depth. The opening track “The Serving Plate” opens with no detectable meter. The result is a near ominous tone which pushes vocalist David Condos’ vocal direction to the forefront. Sonorous guitar tone, percussive whacks, and memorable songwriting combine to make this Nashville band one to keep your finger on. Song writing duties teeter between Condos and the group as a whole. The songs written by the band maintain a richer personality and clearer identity than those written by Condos alone; an issue stemming, no doubt, from the fact that Condos’ has made a name for himself as a Nashville solo artist. The songs written by the band aren’t necessarily better songs, (Condos’ “Such Wondrous Light” is, after all, a highlight of the album,) but rather more collaborative in their tone and find Condos assuming a role within the band as opposed to surrounding himself with a band. Though the more innovative song structures stem from these collaborative efforts, the resulting potpourri keeps the record engaging. “Your Arrows” is a simply magnetic song combining indie-pop sensibility with romantic imagery. Here the band reflects on a lover pursued pining for the piercing arrows of the pursuer; whether the love is idyllic, platonic, or spiritual is left ambiguous. A continuation of the contrast surrounding this record, Milktooth captures beautifully both the exciting appeal and foreboding cost of the chase between lovers; an apt metaphor for a songwriter trying to assume a role within a band. - Trevor Nyman
