BROKEN TEETH, the Austin-based hard rock quintet featuring
DANGEROUS TOYS/
WATCHTOWER vocalist
Jason McMaster, will release its new album,
"Viva La Rock, Fantastico!", on January 26 via
Perris Records.
Featuring 13 all-new tracks and cameo vocals by Canadian compadre
Danko Jones,
"Viva La Rock, Fantastico!" was written on the road during
BROKEN TEETH's 2008-2009
"Blood on the Road Tour". As expected, the fifth release from the hard-bitten Texas head-knockers is torn from the same hellraiser's hymnal that gave us the likes of
MOTÖRHEAD,
AC/DC,
RHINO BUCKET and other wheels-of-steel rockers.
"Some of these songs were written in the back of the bus, some were written in hotel rooms and others were written in the darker corners of life on the road," said
McMaster. "Inspiration is at its finest when it's covered in grease, sweat and blood."
"Viva La Rock, Fantastico!" is another evil sermon of devilish delights and rock-altar anthems. From the torch-fire, rat-a-tat blast of
"Blackheart" and the frantic missile-scream of
"Dressin' Up in Flames" to the nervous shakedown of
"Break the Spell", and the aptly titled
"Exploder",
"Viva La Rock, Fantastico!" finds
BROKEN TEETH's six-string pitchfork attack taking equal jabs at feverish fun (
"Twister" and
"Bullet") and pleasurable pain (
"Spitting Nails" and
"Get Outta Here Alive").
"This is the first
BROKEN TEETH album written by the band's current lineup,"
McMaster said. "In a sense, it marks a new beginning while still maintaining our signature sound. We definitely get the fists in the air, but we also like to give the girls a little something to grind to. If it ain't down-and-dirty, it ain't rock and roll."
Helping
BROKEN TEETH fan the
"Fantastico!" flames is blood-sweating Canadian rocker
Danko Jones. The rock and roll outlaw from the Great White North lends backup vocals to the album's tequila-spiked title track as well as the shout-along stormer
"Big Spender".
"I met a
BROKEN TEETH fan from Scotland online and she sent me some CDs of upcoming new music,"
McMaster explained. "One of the CDs was
DANKO JONES. I shit myself! I knew there was real rock and roll out there somewhere and I had finally found it. A few years later,
Danko was coming through Austin with
TURBONEGRO. I went to the show, introduced myself, gave
Danko some CDs and stayed in touch. A few years later, he's singing on my music."
BROKEN TEETH formed in Austin, Texas, in 1999 when
McMaster recruited former members of
DANGEROUS TOYS,
DIRTY LOOKS and
PARIAH for a side project that allowed band members to have some fun indulging their dirty rock influences, including
AC/DC,
ROSE TATTOO,
CIRCUS OF POWER and
THE FOUR HORSEMEN. More than a decade later,
BROKEN TEETH has firmly established its own tattered and frayed identity with a discography that includes the self-titled debut,
"Guilty Pleasure",
"Blood On The Radio" and
"Electric".
