To The Teeth: Fluisteraars, Intronaut, Regarde Les Hommes Tomber, Elder
Hey welcome to the new To The Teeth newsletter! Thanks for trying this out with me. I'll get you up to date with newly released heavy music. This week is great. I wouldn't go as far to say that this is the first really great release week of the year, but it's up there. My favorite is Fluisteraars' new records - Whisperers in Dutch. Fearless black metal, compelling and challenging. But at times as fragile as the humble poppys on the cover.
Listen to everything (well, most of it) on the playlist on Spotify, check out the Facebook page and if you want to support, head over to Patreon.

Next week
I hoped you liked this very first To The Teeth newsletter! I'm already quite happy because it gives me a certain kind of freedom, in comparison with other platforms I frequent - although I can't ninja edit out any mistakes I see after hitting publish. I know some people find the format a bit tiresome, but my feeling is that a long list is even worse. It's just.. a lot. Anyway, let me know what you think!
I'm already looking forward to next week because of: My Dying Bride, Earth Rot and Lurker of Chalice.
Non-metal album of the week: Angelica Garcia - Cha Cha Palace
Have a great weekend! - Peter.
