5 Seconds of Summer have returned with a new BOP, and it gave me the chills – in a good way, of course!
“Teeth” is explosive track that ventures deeper into the dark sonic territory that 5SOS explored on their summer hit “Easier”. It has a darker vibe than “Easier”, and it’s sooo satisfying!
Along with the track, 5SOS also dropped the music video, directed by Thibaut Duverneix! The music video is a little grim, but very interesting. It starts with the guys getting ready for a consciousness-altering experiment.
I’m not a wuss. I’m THE wuss. I’m in a constant state of
when it comes to medical procedures or the related. At 0:21 seconds in the video, it’s safe to say I almost rolled off my bed.
Once you get past that, the video features some pretty interesting imagery. Check it out below!
“‘Teeth’ came about after a month or two long blur of writing and pushing ourselves to go a step further than Youngblood,” says Luke Hemmings. “It was a tumultuous time in my life and the lyrics in the song definitely reflect that. It speaks lyrically about a trying time in my current relationship. Musically it’s another step forward from ‘Easier’ and really embraces industrial sounds and rhythms. Collaborating with Ryan Tedder was incredible as was Andrew Watt, Ali Tamposi & Lou Bell. ‘Teeth’ captures the soul of 5 Seconds of Summer and I truly believe it is a unique song to us as a band and doesn’t sound like anything out at the moment. It’s my favorite song we’ve released ever and I can’t wait for people to hear it.”
It’s safe to say I LOVE this track, and I’m hoping you’ll agree with me too! Give “Teeth” a listen below.
