Description
*Diagonal unveil the first of two EP’s from Bronze Teeth, a new project from Dominic Butler of Factory Floor and Richard Smith of Optimo Music’s L/F/D/M. First pressing comes in a limited spot gloss jacket designed by Guy Featherstone. Mastered and cut by Matt Colton** Dom Butler (Factory Floor) and Richard Smith (L/F/D/M) debut their fierce Bronze Teeth sound on the first of two hard-ass 12″s for Diagonal. Sustaining the momentum of Powell’s crackshot ‘Club Music’ EP, recently issued on Diagonal, the ‘O Unilaterals’ 12″ yields a trio of modular hardware-honed bangers belying the ongoing significance of steel and flesh. On the A-side they yoke rampant, fleshly pulses to a roiling industrial techno rhythm for 13 minutes of locked-in, foaming acid with little let-up. B-side, the spark-spitting machine funk of ‘Acetone’ gets off somewhere between Dom’s Factory Floor style and an acid-curdled version of Regis’s killer remix for Ike Yard, whilst ‘Glass Tooth’ steps lively with flailing electric blue fuzz and diamond-cut momentum. Crafty DJs will be in their element with these beasts – top stuff from Diagonal once again.
