Providence, Rhode Island's Tinsel Teeth are one of the few bands whose live performance has been tuned to match the intensity of their music - bludgeoning you with thick noise-rock and bizarre female vocals while throwing themselves into the crowd, soaking themselves in fake blood, props, skin, mayhem... all in the hope of entertaining YOU the fuck out. Bubba Crumrine catches up with Will for the story. Their new official video for 'Stock Footage of Stuntmen' is at the bottom!
IU: Hey Will, you and Brandon were the founding members of the band, correct? How did Dave come into the picture and where the hell did you find such an amazing front woman like Stephanie?
W: Brandon and I met at work and started playing music together. He and Dave had been in a band together called "Spheres" that broke up. Dave was also Brandon's roommate at the time, so when he heard us playing in the basement and was into it, he just came down the stairs. That part was pretty easy. As for Steph... the first time we met her she was easily and instantly drawn into our web of spells and magic. She has never been the same since.
IU: Did any of the blood, props, and nudity come first or did your live shows start out of the gate at the extreme level they're known and loved for now?
W: We did talk a lot at an early point in the band about what we wanted to see in a live show. We were all bored with going to shows and not being entertained. Not seeing the package of killer music and rocking the fuck out. So it definitely became a focus for a Tinsel Teeth show to be a party. Once we started playing out, the actual progression show to show to what you see now came pretty naturally. I can say that one of the first 2-3 shows we ever played was at "summercamp" in Providence. After we set up our gear we ran downstairs, took off all our clothes and covered each other in shaving cream. That was a shocked crowd when we came back up and one hell of a show. It's what I believe set the tone for Tinsel Teeth.
IU: How much fake blood do you go through in an average year?
W: Too much, someone sponsor us. I dare you.
IU: Have members of the band (or gear) ever been subject to injury at the hand of the live show?

Location: Cleveland, Ohio
Formed: On a sunny Tuesday afternoon in April, 4 years ago. Just about the time Jovana came back from Bosnia all depressed.
Members: Mandy Aramouni (guitar), Jovana Batkovic (spazz and vocals), Greg Gebhard (bass and booty), Roseanna Safos (drummmmzzzz)
Releases:
Rifle, I knew you when you were just a pistol EP
The Worlds Hardest Working Telescope and The Violent Birth of Stars LP
Fantastic Static EP
Tell us about yourselves!
HotChaCha was formed 4 years ago by Mandy and Jovana who remain the only original members of Hotchacha because they ate the other two. Than they got a new drummer and a new bass player who actually have time and desire to give up everything else and be in a band and make no money. HotChaCha sounds like this: AWESOME. Every release so far has been quite different. 'Rifle' was a reverbed grrl riot number, while 'telescope' is dancy. 'Fantastic Static' is definitely heavier and was getting closer to what could be referred to as the final HCC sound. HotChaCha is recording another full length in July, and will be performing these songs for the upcoming tours. We have 3 shorter tours coming up, one of which is with Summer People. Than we have a really long one coming up end of august till beginning of October. We will either kill each other by the end of this year, OR all carry Gregs babies. The purpose of this band is to make you laugh and cry and mastrubate at the same time.
