Over the course of 11 songs, Chicago's Baby Teeth skates with you through dark alleys populated with lost lovers, bad memories, fantasy brothels and hopes dashed on the sides of rusty dumpsters. The trick is, Baby Teeth is a keys/bass/drums trio so while the themes are purposely overcooked, the music never is. This is classic pop songwriting; a return to economic pop forms, featuring lush 3-part harmonies, brutal bass playing and skronky electric pianos/organs. The songs themselves are smartly arranged and compact, appealing to both the lovelorn and the punk rock. There's a little something here for everyone...but let the buyer beware! As the Chicago Reader puts it, "you could cut the irony with a cheese knife."
