Teeth by Cage The Elephant
“At first glance, this is just a straightforward rock song, engagingly rowdy but familiar and predictable. It's solid stuff in this regard, but stick around past the 2-minute mark and it starts to surprise you. There's this perfect, improv-y grind of a saxophone part that enters the mix and kicks the whole thing into a higher gear with outright distortion and blaring horn section before it spills into its unexpected last leg. This last leg for me is a stroke of genius: a skipping guitar remnant carries over to a sluggish beat with squawky horns, and we're suddenly propelled into outright beat poetry. Gotta love Cage the Elephant.”

3 listens in and already a loved album. My first jam...
@cagetheelephant's new album is SO GOOD (plus they're super fun to watch perform!)
