The undead march of materialism eventually renders the human subject an automaton, desperately grasping for the ephemeral junk 2.0 to fill the abyss of existential emptiness. The self devolves into a mere echo, a ghostly specter caught in the whirlwind of techno-capital acceleration, the very essence of its being devoured by the machinery of its own weaponized desires. If the future eludes your vision, fear not, The Merchant of The Void is standing by and eager to sell it to you. Welcome to the cold descent into the black hole of total absolute commodification.&nbsp; In the words of William S. Burrough &#8216;The junk merchant doesn&#8217;t sell his product to the consumer, he sells the consumer to his product. He does not improve and simplify his merchandise. He degrades and simplifies the client.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\u201c<\/strong><strong>Merchant of The Void\u201d&nbsp;<\/strong>follows previously released track&nbsp;<strong>\u201c<\/strong><strong>Paralyze\u201d (featuring Ho99o9)<\/strong>, both of which hail from&nbsp;<strong>3TEETH\u2019s&nbsp;<\/strong>much-anticipated fourth album, forthcoming via Century Media Records (more details to be announced soon).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To lay the foundation for the new material,<strong>&nbsp;3TEETH&nbsp;<\/strong>migrated to the deserted quiet of Joshua Tree, escaping from the palpable anxiety of their hometown of Los Angeles for fresh new perspective. The material is currently being wrapped up with a solid extended team including the accomplished sound designer&nbsp;<strong>Mick Gordon<\/strong>&nbsp;(best known for his work on the gaming phenomenon&nbsp;<strong>DOOM<\/strong>) who produced several of the tracks along with producer&nbsp;<strong>Nick Rowe<\/strong>&nbsp;and mixer&nbsp;<strong>Sean Beavan (NIN)<\/strong>, bringing in another dimension to the band\u2019s unmistakable sound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Says Gordon,&nbsp;\u201c<strong>3TEETH<\/strong>&nbsp;are one of my favorite acts. They proudly fly their own unique flag. The new album charts course through the next stage of our vanity-led evolution as a species, and by that I mean the album is a world unto itself. I\u2019m just stoked that these guys have allowed me along for the ride.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>ABOUT 3TEETH<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>3TEETH&nbsp;<\/strong>first manifested their cybersocial intentions as early as 2013: a musical entity born out of Mincolla\u2019s Downtown L.A. weekly gatherings known as \u201cLil\u2019 Death\u201d With Xavier Swafford (keys, synth), Chase Brawner (guitars) and Andrew Means (bass, synth) joining Mincolla.<strong>&nbsp;3TEETH&nbsp;<\/strong>released their first self-titled album the following year. Alliances with the likes of TOOL and Rammstein resulted in the collective\u2019s first live performances and a rise to further notoriety with the release of 2017\u2019s album&nbsp;<em>shutdown.exe.<\/em>&nbsp;which took 3TEETH to global stages. Working alongside producer and mixer Sean Beavan (NIN) at new label home, Century Media, 3TEETH upped their own sonic arms race with&nbsp;<em>Metawar&nbsp;<\/em>(2019) and entered a new echelon of cultural consciousness with a collection of tracks including the biting \u201cPresident X\u201d and their haunting take on Foster the People\u2019s \u201cPumped Up Kicks.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/mkultramagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/unnamed-1-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3298\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mkultramagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/unnamed-1-1.png 600w, https:\/\/mkultramagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/unnamed-1-1-300x200.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em><strong>(Photo credit: Jim Louvau)<\/strong><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>&#8220;The modern carriers of the industrial rock torch&#8221; \u2014&nbsp;<\/em><\/strong><strong><em>Revolver<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>&#8220;State-of-the-art sensory overload with take-no-prisoners level of aggression&#8221; \u2014 Rolling Stone<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>\u201c3TEETH&nbsp;bring the aggression with aplomb\u201d \u2014 Loudwire<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>3TEETH<\/strong>&nbsp;is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Alexis Mincolla \u2013 vocals<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Chase Brawner \u2013 guitars<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Xavier Swafford \u2013 keyboards and synthesizer<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Andrew Means \u2013 bass<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Nick Rossi&nbsp;\u2013 drums<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Find 3TEETH Online<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Website:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/ymlpcl9.com\/9b438jeqwaxaewwjuaoawwhaxahmju\/click.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/3teeth.org\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Facebook:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/ymlpcl9.com\/30833jeqqagaewwjuarawwhaoahmju\/click.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/3Teeth<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Twitter:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/ymlpcl9.com\/895d6jeqyazaewwjuacawwhakahmju\/click.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/twitter.com\/threeteeth<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Instagram:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/ymlpcl9.com\/0228fjeysafaewwjuazawwhatahmju\/click.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/3teeth\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">YouTube:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/ymlpcl9.com\/9c26bjeyuafaewwjuaxawwhaoahmju\/click.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCdUZ81wDL5GF_v0XUOyJRSg<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Modern industrial act&nbsp;3TEETH&nbsp;have re-entered the conversation of our tortured reality with&nbsp;\u201cMerchant Of The Void.\u201d&nbsp;Released today, the band\u2019s brand-new single is the first in a series of monthly teases leading up to their anticipated new album coming soon via&nbsp;Century Media Records.
