Our Take
Our Take
Toothgrinder's latest offering, "Phantom Amour," is a whirlwind of sonic eclecticism that will leave listeners both headbanging and scratching their heads in confusion. The New Jersey-based band throws everything but the kitchen sink into this album, blending elements of metal, hardcore, prog-rock, and even a touch of pop sensibility.
From the atmospheric intro of "HVY" to the closing track "Futile," Toothgrinder takes us on a rollercoaster ride through their musical universe, with vocalist Justin Matthews guiding us through his fierce growls and melodic croons. The band's tight musicianship shines through on tracks like "Let It Ride" and "Jubilee," showcasing their technical prowess and ability to seamlessly weave complex rhythms and intricate guitar work.
However, this musical kaleidoscope may not be everyone's cup of tea. Some listeners may find themselves overwhelmed by the constant genre-hopping and the seemingly disjointed nature of the album. But for those willing to strap in and go along for the ride, "Phantom Amour" offers a unique and exhilarating musical experience.
So, whether you're a hardcore Toothgrinder fan or just looking for something new and exciting to sink your teeth into, "Phantom Amour" is definitely worth a listen. Just be prepared for a wild and unpredictable journey that will leave you both exhilarated and slightly confused – in the best possible way.

About the artist
Toothgrinder
TOOTHGRINDER: The Jersey Rockers Shaking Up the Metal Scene Hailing from Asbury Park, New Jersey, TOOTHGRINDER are a band with a mission: to inject a hefty dose of energy and innovation into the metal scene. Combining blistering guitar riffs, pounding drums, and guttural vocals, these guys are not afraid to push boundaries and defy genre conventions. Formed in 2010, TOOTHGRINDER have been making waves with their unique blend of metalcore, progressive metal, and post-hardcore. Their sound is aggressive, yet melodic, with intricate arrangements and thought-provoking lyrics that will keep you hooked from start to finish. They have toured relentlessly, sharing the stage with heavyweights like The Dillinger Escape Plan, Periphery, and Killswitch Engage. Their live shows are a sight to behold, with frontman Justin Matthews commanding the stage like a madman possessed, while the rest of the band deliver tight, intense performances that will have you headbanging until your neck hurts. But TOOTHGRINDER are not just about shredding guitars and brutal breakdowns. With their latest album, "I AM," they have proven that they are capable of creating music that is not only heavy, but also deeply introspective and emotionally resonant. Songs like "The Silence of a Sleeping WASP" and "My Favorite Hurt" showcase a band that is unafraid to wear their hearts on their sleeves, while still delivering the kind of sonic devastation that will leave you begging for more. In a world where metal music can sometimes feel stale and derivative, TOOTHGRINDER are a breath of fresh air. With their fearless approach to songwriting and their electrifying live performances, this is a band that is destined for greatness. Keep an eye on these guys - they're going to blow your mind.
