Sharptooth announce new album ‘Transitional Forms’

SHARPTOOTH have announced a new album!

Titled Transitional Forms, the upcoming album from the American hardcore band is their sophomore effort and is scheduled to be released in July this year, via Pure Noise Records.

Speaking about the upcoming album, vocalist Lauren Kashan says, “sonically, if Clever Girl was a Velociraptor, Transitional Forms is a goddamn Tyrannosaurus Rex. This record is so much heavier and darker than its predecessor, and, I think, a significant maturation of our sound. Ultimately, the record is about a paradigm shift, from hopelessness to self compassion, and the fundamental realisation that nothing in this world or in ourselves is ever black and white. It’s the story of my personal struggle with the societal, interpersonal, and internal constructs that have left me feeling small, afraid, broken, and utterly hopeless. It is easily the most intensely personal collection of songs I have ever written, and I am so deeply appreciative of Lance and Keith for trusting me in that, and for creating this incredibly dark and intense sonic space for me to tell this story.”

“This album has many years of hard work put into it that is going to set it apart from our last album by light years. It has a story to tell, it has a life to live, and will share the air we breath with it,” adds guitarist Lance Donati. “Transitional Forms is the perfect name for this event that I will call an album. I can’t wait until it gets unleashed.”

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for the first song to be lifted from the upcoming album; Say Nothing (In The Absence Of Content).
