"With five green bug hats peeking above the stage, Bug Teeth conjure a world just beyond reach. Oneiric, spellbinding, and insistent, harsh guitars and skittering drum and bass rhythms break through hazy ambient dreamscapes. Lyrics are direct and poetic, each song a slide beneath a microscope, examining the intimate, the infinite, and everything in between. Bug Teeth began as the self-produced electronic bedroom project of front-person PJ Johnson. From these delicate, lo-fi beginnings emerged a raw, celestial sound, drawing listeners into its unique gravity. Fragile and ferocious, a hypnotic push and pull between distortion and stillness. The debut album, Micrographia, bends genre, pulling influences from dream pop, electronic ambience, and breakbeat to craft something that feels both weightless and deeply grounded. Taking its name from an influential 17th century scientific work by Robert Hooke which pioneered the microscope and its use on insects and plants, Bug Teeth’s Micrographia, like its namesake, hones in on the small things, amidst life’s larger struggles. Album opener Tapeworm awakens Micrographia in a childlike state. A deep breath foreshadowing an imminent plunge and the first thread of the intricate world of Micrographia that Bug Teeth have woven. Softness and loss print on the backdrop of percussive whirrs of synthesisers that decorate a tactility in restrained, haunted glockenspiel. Ammonite then flexes the band's muscles. Trademark pulses and control are allowed to be polluted by aggression and the dynamic range of the record. The album feels macro and micro, huge and small all at once. From mountainous beauty in Crunch Went The Snow, to the intimate, nurturing chant of ‘Reflect, repair, replace, remain’ in Warp & Weft II. Shocked by the passing of their mother in 2021, in Micrographia band founder/songwriter PJ Johnson questions how to cope with and heal after the complexity of sudden, tragic loss. Via a pristinely beauteous blend of 90s dream-pop, Hauntological indie, ambient, breakcore and psychedelia; the literary works of H.G Wells or Murakami, and the naturalism of Ivor Abrahams, Bug Teeth translate the most traumatic of human experiences into ephemeral, otherworldly art."
