Raime<\/strong>\u2019s second album, “Tooth”<\/strong>, arrived June 10, 2016 on 2xLP, CD and digital formats. The widescreen melancholia of their 2012 debut, “Quarter Turns Over A Living Line”, gives way to an urgent and focussed futurism, in the shape of eight fiercely uptempo, minimal, meticulously crafted electro-acoustic rhythm tracks. The DNA of dub-techno, garage\/grime and post-hardcore rock music spliced into sleek and predatory new forms.<\/p>\n

No let-up, no hesitation. Needlepoint guitar, deftly junglist drum programming, brooding synths and lethal sub-bass drive the engine. The production is immaculate, high definition. No hiss, no obscuring drones or extraneous noise: the music of “Tooth”<\/strong> is wide-open and exposed. The seeds of its supple dancehall biomechanics can be found in the self-titled 2013 EP by Raime<\/strong> side-project Moin, an ahead-of-its-time synthesis of art-rock and soundsystem sensibilities, but “Tooth”<\/strong> pushes the template further, binding the disparate elements together so tightly that they become indistinguishable from one another.<\/p>\n

If “Quarter Turns” was an album that confronted total loss and self-destruction, even longed for it, then “Tooth”<\/strong> is the sound of resistance and counter-attack: cunning, quick, resolute; calling upon stealth as much as brute-force. At a time when so many pay lip service to experimentation without ever fully committing themselves or their work to it, Raime<\/strong> return from three years of deep, dedicated studio research with a bold and original new music: staunch, rude, and way out in front.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
