Baby Teeth
There's plenty to chew on with this assured, albeit slightly predictable debut from the rising Canadian popsters Growing up in the suburbs is really ******g boring. Like, mind-crushingly dull. Suburban kids know the pain of spending the most fun and creative years of your life hunting for inspiration in the most mundane of settings. For many, it creates an innate sense of loathing that lingers until it snaps – and you just leave forever. For others, namely Canadian pop band Dizzy, it’s the driving force behind ‘Baby Teeth’, their lush debut album. The group, comprised of brothers Charlie, Alex and Mackenzie Spencer and their friend Katie Munshaw, all grew up in and around the ‘burbs of Oshawa, a city that backs onto the mammoth Lake Ontario. Speaking to NME earlier this year, Alex said that this environment “does have its beauty and its little moments of innocence – it’s very quiet and secluded, and that helps nurture the sound in some way.”
