Nexus of Teeth is every bit as vomit inducing as the oral nightmare that is its highly memorable cover art yet once you go past the fetid bacteria-ridden tissue into the bile-filled organs within, more than mere disgust awaits. This all-star collaboration of Danish, Turkish, and Polish musicians combines their experiences from all variety of extremity into a coherent vessel; a strong example of a “supergroup” that truly lives up to the expectations of all the talent involved. It’s one of the most idiosyncratically ordered metal releases of this year, defying expectations of what classic style death metal is supposed to sound like while simultaneously sounding like a more authentic take on the so-called golden age than every other band slapping together some d-beats over leftover punk riffs draped in overblown distortion. What was once ordinary, mundane even, has been transformed from the comfortably everyday to the perverse and the sickening in a compact and efficient debut. Along with Phrenelith, Undergang, Chaotian, and even the legendary Iniquity, Hyperdontia are crafting a distinct sound, one that I hope to see them enshrined as one of the pioneers. It’s every bit as distinctive as any American, Finnish, Swedish, or even Chilean band and here’s hoping to a new generation of unclean death free from run-down tropes and weaksauce tribute acts.
