Gum Takes Tooth
Mirrors Fold
London-based Gum Takes Tooth's second album sees the forward-thinking duo delve deeper into exotic drum explorations, vibrant electronic sound shapes and whispering psychedelia. It is a sonic leap forward from the out and out metal flavoured barrage of debut album "Silent Cenotaph" into more controlled and deeper, denser rhythmic soundscapes and fully-formed song structures. Gum Takes Tooth are a two man everything machine endlessly seeking what-the-fuck aural mesmerism in a maze like arrangement of physically overwhelming rituals of dance music, sound system culture and doom. Each member focusing intently on unmediated rhythmic interaction between crowd and performer, directing the energy towards unexplored altered states. Dark primal frequencies are felt and not heard, unremitting circular drums shatter and rebirth whilst a cast of vocal characters provide an astral guide through these dizzying manipulations
