"Unlike their glossy novelty prankster contemporaries, Baby Teeth know great midwestern anthems need at least a little midwestern heart..." - PITCHFORK ULTIMATE MIXTAPE #54 - THE SIMP - click link to read entire 12/06 review

"We've never played with a band that sounded so much like Queen." - Eleanor Friedberger, The Fiery Furnaces

"FOR THE HEATHERS" EP

"To create this EP, Baby Teeth's three members dared each other to write and home-record a song named "Heather"...Each track is hilarious and haunting-- and could be about the same girl, only she's moot: by working apart, these guys proved they belong together." - HARP MAGAZINE - click link for entire review

"The members of Chicago's Baby Teeth dared each other to write and home-record a song each in total seclusion, the only rule being that the song must be called "Heather." The result is a joyous mix of roller-derby-themed dance funk, MIDI-enhanced 80's pop and twangy disco rock." - PASTE MAGAZINE, 5/06

"Each song on their new EP is upbeat, catchy, and skillfully crafted down to the last flouish of backing vocals and melodic modulation; another one of this band's strengths is that each member is not only a talented musician, but a crafty songwriter." - INVISIBLE LIMB - click link for entire review

NEW CITY (CHICAGO) REVIEW

"THE BABY TEETH ALBUM"

“The members of Baby Teeth are longtime Chicago scene makers, playing in various incarnations on bills with the likes of Yo La Tengo and Fiery Furnaces, and their material shows a marked self-assurance: Imagine swampy blues-funk with a little Elton John swagger and a whole lot of ‘70s AM-radio shazam, and you’ll pretty much be there.”
-- TIME OUT NEW YORK

"Pearly [Sweets] croons, snarls and drawls with a sleazy quiver that's so foxy it makes my uterus ache. The tone recalls Hall and Oates's sunshiny faux melodies, the delivery Manfred Mann's melodramatic gusto-- in short, you could cut the irony with a cheese knife."
-CHICAGO READER

“Baby Teeth are a Chicago-based ensemble that -- without shame -- create seventies-inspired pop complete with heavenly harmonies, charming melodies, and droplets of blue-eyed soul. The amazing thing is that in their collective hands, the sappy Top 40 of yesteryear sounds endearing instead of rusty, and occasionally – amid the love and heartbreak -- has a shadowy underbelly in the lyrics that would send Richard
Carpenter into shock.”
