Troublemaker

Brian Reedy - Beneath the Factory (2006)

Baby Teeth - The Simp (mp3): Anthems by Chicago band Baby Teeth are the type that allure recklessly with their perpetually dirty knees, but always manage to get you into trouble and walk away clean. Abe Levitan's full-bodied vibrato could reassure the presence of a party in an empty room. And only when you're flailing like a pasta-stuffed goose, do you remember you're dancing alone. The passion blasting through my headphones today at work knocked the chord right out of its jack and unleashed an aggressive chorus of "NA NA NA NA" on my silently disapproving coworkers. Abe didn't even seem to notice.
