The Casket Lottery- Feel The Teeth

Label: Iodine Recordings

Released 2025

Feel The Teeth captures a band navigating the tension between exhaustion and revelation, pushing through the haze of disillusionment while still searching for meaning. Lyrically, Feel The Teeth reflects the weight of an era that has shifted in unexpected ways—personally, politically, and socially—capturing the complexities of trying to find clarity in a world that often feels out of control. Where their 2020 album Short Songs for End Times felt like a direct confrontation with the chaos of a fractured world, Feel The Teeth dwells in the quieter aftermath, the moments of clarity amidst the noise. The album is soaked in existential fatigue—tracks like "Nightsong" and "Diamonds" bring us to the edge of the abyss, questioning the worth of it all, while grappling with the weight of personal and collective history. As Nathan Ellis explains, "Nightsong" is a reflection of how time and trauma warp the body and mind: "I don't sleep very well anymore... now I just have these moments between being awake and my hypnogogic hallucinations."
