Shy Tooth Covers Teenage Fanclub

Image
Normally when a band releases a new single from their upcoming album, that's the focus. But, if they also release a cover of a 90's alternative classic, and you're reading If It's Too Loud..., the focus will be on the cover. Shy Tooth just released the single "No Closer To," which is great and we should be writing about that (and you should check it out here ), but they also released a cover of Teenage Fanclub's "Everything Flows" from their 1990 debut album A Catholic Education. It's basically a perfect version of the original, just with more standard/pleasant sounding vocals. It's bouncy 90's style indie rock/pop, although we never would have dared call it pop back then. It's the kind of cover that will have you falling into a Teenage Fanclub and Shy Tooth wormhole, which means it's basically perfect. You can watch the video for Shy Tooth's version of "Everything Flows" below. Ultrasuede is due out March 26 on ...

Shy Tooth - "Too Kind"

Image
Shy Tooth is a new band comprised of members of hardcore and punk bands out of Rochester, NY (Polar Bear Club, Coming Down, Green Dreams, etc). While their new single, "Too Kind," does have a punk edge, it's far more melodic than their previous bands. Instead, you get the huge anthemic sound of Bruce Springsteen, the Americana rock meets New Wave of early Tom Petty, and a little bit of Ben Kweller and Frank Turner thrown in. It's a huge rock song with a little folk mixed in. There's a ton to love in this song as it encompasses so many rock and folk tropes that it already feels like so many of your lifelong favorite songs. You can listen to "Too Kind" below. Ultrasuede is due out March 26 on Dadstache Records. You can pre-order your copy in some pretty sweet bundles here . For more on Shy Tooth, check out the band's Bandcamp . Ultrasuede by Shy Tooth
