Moon Tooth announce new album ‘Phototroph’
MOON TOOTH have announced a new album!
Titled Phototroph, the upcoming album from the Long Island-based band is the follow-up to 2019’s Crux and is scheduled to be released in May this year, via Pure Noise Records.
The upcoming album was produced by Josh Wilbur [LAMB OF GOD, QUICKSAND, THE DILLINGER ESCAPE PLAN] and speaking about the upcoming album, vocalist John Carbone says, “the theme of plants growing towards the light was just something I kept coming back to in different songs. Our previous record, Crux, was like a crossroads and was dealing with a lot of negative shit. Phototroph is about walking from the middle and picking a road that goes onward and upward on a brighter path.”
Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; Carry Me Home. The new song is the third single to be released from the upcoming album, following on from The Conduit and Nymphaeaceae.
Speaking about the new song, guitarist Nick Lee says, “I really wanted to go all the way ALLMAN BROTHERS or HENDRIX on a MOON TOOTH song. We’ve definitely flirted with those sounds on songs in the past but it felt really good to just go all the way bluesy-country and unabashedly old school rock and roll. I think this song is a testament to the fearlessness with which MOON TOOTH writes music. We will flirt with any genres we want and it will still sound like us.”
