Teethe re-emerges with Magic Of The Sale, a soft but steelyfull-length album where the Texas band's four distinctsongwriters, singers, and artists ask a series of interlockedquestions about what it means to build a life in a time of sharedcollapse. The result is a sad and beautiful self-built world ofSouthern slowcore, where four people turn toward one anotherand drift forward, together. Magic Of The Sale follows Teethe's2020 self-titled debut, a loose and warm 12-track collage ofexquisite existential blues and twilit harmonies from which fewearly cassette runs turned into several sold-out vinyl editions,unlikely name-drops from mega-stars, and several tours acrossthe United States and Europe. Magic Of The Sale representsTeethe's natural next step: a second album, a record label, aslew of guest collaborators (Xandy Chelmis of Wednesdayand MJ Lenderman, Charlie Martin of Hovvdy and severalother veteran musicians) who represent their Texas roots andnew friends they've made in recent years. Still, Teethe tookspecial care to preserve the part of the process that madetheir debut so special, now with expanded toolkits. On MagicOf The Sale, they've boosted their gear and home studios anddug into the craft of composition and production. Eliding anoutsider producer or engineer, the band's Boone Patrello spentfour arduous months mixing the record-taking the patchworkof tracks from each member and their collaborators andfunneling several visions into one complete picture. From along-overlooked pocket of Texas' musical wealth, Teethereturns with a deeply layered and collaborative work thatmakes the weight of the world feel a little lighter to lug.
