Welcome to the To The Teeth newsletter! Your weekly update of new heavy music. You can listen to (most) everything in the playlist on Spotify. If you like what you read, go to Patreon (receive a patch!) & Bandcamp (buy a patch!). Peppers are hot 🌶️!

I’m out for vacation for a few weeks. I won’t be sending out a newsletter and no updates to the playlist - vacation is vacation. But I’ll be back in the last quarter of august with a huge update of new stuff!

New Albums

🌶️ Phantom Spell

Prog/heavy, Spain (Wizard Tower Recordings/Cruz del Sur)

FFO: Tarot, Uriah Heep, Freeways

The second album from one-man-heavy metal machine Phantom Spell is here, and it’s as sharp as an ancient sword, drenched in the blood of the foes of the citadel.

🌶️ Stangarigel

Black, Slovakia (Medieval Prophecy Records)

FFO: Malokarpatan, old Ulver, Satyricon

Insanely riffy black metal from the dude behind Malokarpatan. There’s folky stuff, heavy metally stuff and lots and lots of riffy stuff. I know I’m being lazy here, but it’s really all you need to know going into this.

🌶️ Entrails

Death, Sweden (Hammerheart Records)

FFO: Entombed, Grave, Repugnant

If you like Swedish buzzsawing, there’s a zero percent chance you’ll dislike this. But don’t sleep on new Clairvoyance, Filth and Eternal Darkness, either.

There’s more: Clairvoyance (🌶️ death, Poland), Eternal Darkness (🌶️ death/doom, Sweden), Ba’al (black/sludge/post, UK), Oskoreien (melodic black, USA), Dephosphorus (death/black/grind, Greece), Filth (death, Sweden), Mawiza (groove/metalcore, Chile) and a split from Haunter & Cape of Bats (both black/punk, USA). The rest is in the playlist!
