‘EMPTY’ follows previously released singles ‘LETHAL‘ ‘CAR CRASH‘ and ‘SWOLLENTEETH‘, which was released back in January to much acclaim and fan fervor. Revolver Magazine called the track “brutal as hell”, with Metal Hammer enthusing that “there’s an air of grotesque nu metal nastiness that feels like a re-vamped take on the misanthropic nihilism of Iowa’s finest.” and Kerrang! musing “What’s really heavy, masked, mysterious, sounds like it was made by complete lunatics, and involves Slipknot DJ Sid Wilson and producer Ross Robinson?”.
Since their release, the tracks have clocked up nearly 200,000 Spotify streams and 140,000 YouTube views and have been included on Spotify’s All New Metal and New Blood Playlists, Apple’s Breaking Hard Rock, Fresh Blood and Breaking Metal Playlists and Deezer’s Metal Radar playlist.
The collective will release their debut, self-titled EP, a brutal, visceral, roundhouse kick to the gut of the modern heavy music landscape, produced by Slipknot’s Sid Wilson, on Wednesday, May 9th. It will be the first release to come out on Blowed Out Records, the new label venture between legendary producer, Ross Robinson (Korn, The Cure, Slipknot, Glassjaw, At The Drive In and countless others), artist Ghostemane and Bill Armstrong (SideOneDummy).
Commenting on his excitement about the project, Sid Wilson shares
“After all these years, when I thought I’d never find another group of humans outside of Slipknot that knew the formula to transparency thru frequencies, and not thru appearance, I discovered Swollen Teeth. This is trü-Metal!”
Ross Robinson adds
“Sid and I listening to roughs in Iowa, emotions ran high – I found myself getting chills throughout my body to that familiar molten metal pulse I love so much – this time that force is known as “Swollen Teeth” – hunger + talent have that vibration I can’t ignore – Bill, Eric, and I (“Blowed Out Records”) are totally committed to rip it out there for the long haul.. “
