Feet Teeth
Aphthae Epizooticae [CS; HellosQuare]

When a band like Feet Teeth dances into your life it’s easy to glom onto the initial presentation and then 10 minutes later HOLD ON — they’ve lost me. It’s one thing to employ a unique form of presentation, it’s another entirely to expand that form into results sturdy enough to support a full-length recording. Aphthae Epizooticae manages this feat and then some via a meager store of instruments including percussion, marimba, Commodore 64, and trumpet. While that arimba-may (if you’re into pig latin) is a little oying-clay, as it’s totally front-and-center almost all of the time, a few of the diversions taken by the trio hold onto the mind like a freshly spat-upon suction cup. Torngat sounded a bit like this, and not just because they also owned a trumpet; that’s all I got for precedents, sorry. Amiina, where art thou?
