Milk Teeth

Pianos Become the Teeth recently announced a tour, which includes a US leg with TWIABP, Turnover and Take One Car, followed by a European run with the UK’s Milk Teeth. Milk Teeth released their newest EP, Sad Sack, earlier this year via Hopeless Records. It’s another entry into the ’90s rock revival, taking influence from a number of bands that got airtime on MTV in the middle of that decade. (Their videos even include a riff on the MTV logo in the top right corner that spells their band name.) There’s a little Smashing Pumpkins, a little Garbage, a little Hole, and for the last minute of “Melon Blade,” they sound like a more polished Sonic Youth. If you dig that stuff, or other recent bands like Superheaven or Bully, you may dig Milk Teeth too.

Find out for yourself below, where you can listen to an Rdio stream of the EP and watch the videos for “Vitamins” and “No Fun,” the latter of which is premiering here. Tour dates below too.
