The Teeth’s first full-length album, “You’re My Lover Now†(Park the Van), is a population explosion. Songs fling shards of narrative about dozens of characters: lovers, friends, schoolkids, parents, depressives, liars, strivers, even partygoers tootling kazoos. The bits of stories arrive in an even more manic outpouring of tunes: honky-tonk, garage-rock, music-hall Merseybeat, frantic new wave and a final tinkly philosophical ballad with an apt self-diagnosis: “You got too many ideas building up inside of you.†It’s an overload, but an exhilarating one; these songs are worth decompressing.

Here, ["You're My Lover Now"] this Philly quartet manages to blend early garage rock aesthetics with Queen and Bowie's theatrical flare, resulting in ramshackle showtunes that successfully range from soulful ballads ("Ball of the Dead Rat"), to Cake-y swaggers ("Yellow"), to even something acoustic and sentimental ("It's Over and Over"). Never losing that goodtime-y piano bar feel, the songs of You're My Lover Now bounce off the walls with ostentatious crescendos and harmonies, keeping a keen sense of irony for it all. 91%

There’s a screaming procession of carnivalesque lights flying from one ear to the next as if in that split second of pressing play, you’ve unknowingly given yourself over to a different power, one that controls light and sound and an entire textbook of feelings. There’s exuberance and joyousness and piss and vinegar. There is an unconscious outpouring of affinity for all that’s going on and you’re momentarily speechless like you’ve just been dunked into an icy river or been hit from behind.

Sean Moeller on "You're My Lover Now"
When handed an advance copy of The Teeth’s album, You’re My Lover Now, Nancy announced, “This is your new favorite band.â€â€¦ Many of the new songs are immediately likeable, but there’s madness close at hand, and talent. The smart, image-rich, impassioned lyrics are worth paying attention to, though sometimes dark in subject, nothing’s sour--no whining but lots of howls and yelps.

OUR NEW FAVORITE:
You're My Lover Now, The Teeth
(Park the Van Records)
We could give you lots of reasons to listen to Philly's alt-pop band The Teeth-loopy arrangements, tight rhythms, serious-silly lyrics, comparisons to '60s pop and '70s glam rock-but you just need to know one thing: The Teeth are for people who relish music and life.
Marie Claire Magazine
"One of my favorite new bands is Philly's The Teeth; they sound a lot like the early Kinks' records. They have really great chord progressions and vocal harmonies and are one of the few groups that have impressed me with their writing."
RJD2 on The Teeth
XLR8R Magazine
"this band has Official High Pop Harmonies and you actually
should listen to them and make them your new favorite band."
The Fader
Alex Wagner
"The vocals on 'Carry the Wood,' the third recording by Philadelphia-area
rockers the Teeth, suggest what Alex, the protagonist in Stanley
Kubrick's 1971 film, 'A Clockwork Orange,' might have sounded
like had he been a sunny, loopy petty criminal rather than a
vibrantly bitter sociopath."
The Washington Post
Pamela Murray Winters
"The Teeth's EP Carry the Wood (Park the Van) sounds like... well, bassist
Peter MoDavis compares it to the movie Punch Drunk Love.
That's not a bad way to describe songs that twinkle, swoop, sting, and bang.
Other relevant movies: The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Harold
and Maude, Head, and the last 20 minutes or so of Behind the
Green Door."
