by Loose Tooth
Melbourne three-piece Loose Tooth announce their debut album Keep Up out now via Milk! Records / Remote Control Records.
Keep Up cements the bands ability to create impeccably catchy hooks. The howling guitars off their first EP Saturn Returns are peeled back to foreground the striking to and fro of the band's distinctive vocalists. That's three for three - Etta Curry (drums, vocals), Luc Dawson (bass, vocals, guitar, keys), and Nellie Jackson (guitar, vocals) - long time friends with a democratic approach to both songwriting and influences.
In addition to the opening track 'Keep On' the band have just released the clip for their second single 'All The Colours Gone.' Watch the video below.
Recorded at Head Gap studios in Preston alongside Finn Keane, mixed by Anna Laverty and mastered by Mikey Young, Keep Up sees Loose Tooth open its doors to more textural hues without skimping on the pulp. Teaming garage rock thrills with sublime harmonies caught in the crossfire, Loose Tooth's Keep Up is a self-assured addition to the Melbourne punk canon that could only result from the band's unique chemistry; raw lived-in pop courtesy of countless nights shared at the precipice of a barstool.
