The duo\u2019s rising potential in music caused the reputable record label Polyvinyl to sign them shortly after the release of their very first single, \u201cTrouble,\u201d which turned heads in the Chicago music scene and garnered over a million streams. Needless to say, the group\u2019s crazy, earworm-esque single releases over the year including, \u201cTrouble,\u201d \u201cViolent,\u201d and \u201cRed Wine,\u201d caused a great degree of fan anticipation for a full Grapetooth album leading up to its release last month on November 9th. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\n          image-block-outer-wrapper\n          layout-caption-below\n          design-layout-inline\n          combination-animation-none\n          individual-animation-none\n          individual-text-animation-none\n        \" data-test=\"image-block-inline-outer-wrapper\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"\n              sqs-block-image-figure\n              intrinsic\n            \" style=\"max-width:2048px\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"image-block-wrapper\" data-animation-role=\"image\">\n<div class=\"sqs-image-shape-container-element\n              \n          \n        \n              has-aspect-ratio\n            \" style=\"position: relative;padding-bottom:184.24658203125%;overflow: hidden\"><\/p>\n<p>                <img decoding=\"async\" data-stretch=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/orgs.emerson.edu\/wecb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/87\/2025\/06\/fullsizeoutput_17e7-scaled-1.jpg\" data-image=\"https:\/\/orgs.emerson.edu\/wecb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/87\/2025\/06\/fullsizeoutput_17e7.jpg\" data-image-dimensions=\"2048x3091\" data-image-focal-point=\"0.5,0.5\" alt=\"fullsizeoutput_17e7.jpeg\" data-load=\"false\" width=\"2048\" height=\"3091\" style=\"object-fit: cover;width: 100%;height: 100%;object-position: 50% 50%\" loading=\"lazy\" data-loader=\"sqs\"><\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/figure><\/div>\n<div class=\"sqs-html-content\">\n<p style=\"white-space: pre-wrap\">Prior to their album release, Grapetooth performed two sold-out shows previewing their new music at Lincoln Hall in Chicago and Baby\u2019s All Right in Brooklyn, in addition to an album release show at Thalia Hall in Chicago. The crazy, enigmatic, high sprung energy that Frankel and Bailoni exude in their live shows include Frankel\u2019s funky hip twisting dance moves and Bailoni\u2019s ability to get the crowd riled up through his keyboard playing. Combined, their liveliness ensures that any Grapetooth concert is a highly memorable dance party. Though the concerts were few in numbers, Grapetooth garnered widespread social media attention from a number of videos showing audiences stampede the stage during \u201cTrouble\u201d. The overflow of fans would harmonize and jump on stage with the duo. However, the fun, party-like, nature of a Grapetooth show would not be complete if it weren\u2019t for the catalyzing songs that ignite the memorable concert experiences for fans. This is precisely why Grapetooth\u2019s debut album is so well crafted in translating the experience their live shows bring. <\/p>\n<p style=\"white-space: pre-wrap\">Grapetooth&#8217;s self-titled debut album consists of 10 songs, including dance-like tracks like \u201cTrouble\u201d and \u201cViolent,\u201d and happy-go-lucky kumbaya tracks like \u201cMile After Mile\u201d and \u201cHangover Sq\u201d. In terms of musical resemblance, Frankel and Bailoni impressively crafted their debut album to be musically reminiscent to the era of the \u201980s. Instrumentally, through their primary use of a cheap digital Yamaha synth board that Bailoni found in an <a href=\"https:\/\/floodmagazine.com\/54937\/grapetooth-built-the-table-theyre-sitting-at\/\">alleyway<\/a>, Grapetooth combines synthesizers and a drum machine commonly used in the top tracks of the \u201980s and adds a personalized twist with their subtle inclusion of the kazoo, acoustic guitar, and harmonica in the album. While listening to the album, one can literally envision what Grapetooth song would go best with a film from the \u201980s or \u201890s. One pictures Uma Thurman dancing with John Travolta to the track \u201cBlood\u201d or the Breakfast Club dancing in the library to \u201cImagine On.\u201d Grapetooth\u2019s album characteristically differs from the majority of mainstream albums that have been released in 2018, in the sense that Grapetooth does not have to rely on making the album thematic or conceptual. Seen in popular thematic albums like The 1975\u2019s latest album \u201cA Brief Inquiry into Online relationships focusing on the flaws of our technology-based modern age, and conceptual albums like Mitski\u2019s \u201cBe the Cowboy\u201d that draws on a fictitious narrative surrounding loneliness, Grapetooth\u2019s debut album is just purely a bundle of fun without any specific metaphoric meaning. The definitive allure that makes Grapetooth\u2019s music so charismatic and unique is how the personalities of Frankel and Bailoni shine best through their lyrics and instrumentation. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\n          image-block-outer-wrapper\n          layout-caption-below\n          design-layout-inline\n          combination-animation-none\n          individual-animation-none\n          individual-text-animation-none\n        \" data-test=\"image-block-inline-outer-wrapper\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"\n              sqs-block-image-figure\n              intrinsic\n            \" style=\"max-width:2048px\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"image-block-wrapper\" data-animation-role=\"image\">\n<div class=\"sqs-image-shape-container-element\n              \n          \n        \n              has-aspect-ratio\n            \" style=\"position: relative;padding-bottom:186.98629760742188%;overflow: hidden\"><\/p>\n<p>                <img decoding=\"async\" data-stretch=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/orgs.emerson.edu\/wecb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/87\/2025\/06\/fullsizeoutput_17e9-scaled-1.jpg\" data-image=\"https:\/\/orgs.emerson.edu\/wecb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/87\/2025\/06\/fullsizeoutput_17e9.jpg\" data-image-dimensions=\"2048x3091\" data-image-focal-point=\"0.5,0.5\" alt=\"fullsizeoutput_17e9.jpeg\" data-load=\"false\" width=\"2048\" height=\"3091\" style=\"object-fit: cover;width: 100%;height: 100%;object-position: 50% 50%\" loading=\"lazy\" data-loader=\"sqs\"><\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/figure><\/div>\n<div class=\"sqs-html-content\">\n<p style=\"white-space: pre-wrap\">In terms of musical rating, the majority of Grapetooth fans reacted positively to Grapetooth\u2019s debut album, while in contrast, prominent publications like Pitchfork gave more critical responses. The foundational component of Grapetooth\u2019s debut album exhibiting their personalities is exactly what <a href=\"https:\/\/pitchfork.com\/reviews\/albums\/grapetooth-grapetooth\/\">Pitchfork<\/a> found unalluring about their debut album. Rating the album an inadequate 5.9, the reviewer, in summary, acknowledged the catchy appeal of Grapetooth, but found that the duo fell short due to how \u201cthey trade in cheap fun not deep reflection\u201d and \u201cthey keep their words brief, as if trying to hide the fact that they\u2019re short on compelling ideas and honest effort.\u201d I acknowledge the perception that lyrically Grapetooth may seem to fall short with their hit songs revolving around a repetitive chorus with \u201cTrouble\u201d and \u201cViolent,\u201d literally repeating the same two sentences in conjunction to the instrumental loop. However, I believe that the eight other tracks on the album prove otherwise with a variation of lyrical structure and instrumental usage beyond just Grapetooth\u2019s signature synth beat. <\/p>\n<p style=\"white-space: pre-wrap\">Upon closer inspection of songs like \u201cHallelujah,\u201d one of the slower tracks on the album, Frankel reveals he isn\u2019t just lyrically delivering another silly, earworm, dance track. The song exhibits a sense of loneliness and self-reflectivity with the lyrics \u201ccause no one likes being alone\/ and no one likes working too hard\u201d. &nbsp;In addition, the track subtly displays a hint of a religious connotation to it with \u201cI said to myself, Lord\/ I can feel you moving by my side.\u201d Correlative to another slow track on the album, \u201cMile After Mile,\u201d the song is suggestive of a post break up song that lyrically gives off a sense of self doubt and personal solitude in the repeating chorus of Frankel softly singing \u201cOh was it on me at all?\u201d and \u201cOh won&#8217;t you call anymore?\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"white-space: pre-wrap\">Despite the criticism, Grapetooth\u2019s debut album genuinely fosters some of the best bops of 2018. My personal favorite off of the album is the track, \u201cDeath,\u201d conveys the synthwave genre, making it truly infectious to listen to. Whilst listening to the track, you can envision how fun dancing to the song in person would be with its fast paced instrumentation accompanied by Frankel\u2019s claps and \u201chey hey\u2019s\u201d. Additionally, the track \u201cImagine On\u201d sounds like the perfect song to accompany Rainbow Road course in Mario Kart with its funky, energetic beat, that inevitably will make one want to bop their head or do a death drop. <\/p>\n<p style=\"white-space: pre-wrap\">Overall, Grapetooth\u2019s album proves the revival of the 80\u2019s fundamental sound is plausible in today\u2019s music. The band\u2019s popularity is only going to exponentially rise with the release of their debut album. There are currently no 2018 tour announcements for their debut album, but it is safe to assume a 2019 Grapetooth tour is possible. Though a bigger stage for a 2019 tour will be needed in order to accommodate for the crowd stampede during \u201cTrouble,\u201d fans can expect to walk out of a Grapetooth show with one of the most unique concert experiences of their lives. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\n          image-block-outer-wrapper\n          layout-caption-below\n          design-layout-inline\n
