Portland’s Meth Teeth recently released their full length record Everything Went Wrong. Surprisingly enough, Mattey Hubele and company found time to release the record despite MTV’s Portland invasion and a handful of other musical projects. Hubele is a busy dude these days, acknowledging however that Meth Teeth has been taking up most of his time.
The band’s playfully dirty aesthetic is heard throughout the record, a sort of stylistic trademark I come to think of when listening to up and comers from the Pacific Northwest. Huebele’s folk roots can be heard from time to time, mangled beautifully by truckloads of lo-fi distortion. Honesty seems to permeate throughout; the amalgam of blues, folk, garage rock and pop melodies are all managed and intertwined cleverly. Comparisons to Eat Skull seem to be spot on, especially in tracks like “Never Been to Church” and “I Was Wrong,” both of which happen to be two of the better tracks on the album. Be sure to check out Portland’s latest gem ASAP via Woodsist (home of the beloved Fuck It Tapes).
