Teenanger

"Negative Zeros"

BY Gregory AdamsPublished Sep 4, 2014

Just to be clear, nothing lasts forever. With that in mind, Toronto's Teenanger are apparently living it up while they can, announcing that they're "gonna drink till the money's all gone" in the latest wiry preview from their E P L P, "Negative Zeros."

The tension mounts on the track, with a steady metronome's clack of drums, heavily caffeinated bass lines and scattershot six-string gelling together like the second coming of Joy Division's "Transmission." Instead of the nervous baritone boom of Ian Curtis, though, we get smarm-slathered lines about making much less than minimum wage and dealing with the potentially metaphorical sting of sub-zero weather.

You'll find the single down below, while E P L P arrives September 9 through Telephone Explosion.
