Formed in 2024 in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, TeethOut is a punk band that plays like they’re still 20—fast, loud, and with something to prove. Rooted in the traditions of skatepunk and 90s melodic hardcore, the band blends breakneck speed with introspective lyricism, delivering a sound that’s both nostalgic and urgent. Despite their recent formation, TeethOut has already earned a reputation for raw, high-energy live shows and no-frills punk songwriting.
The project began with a simple idea: reconnect with the cathartic energy of the music they grew up on. Early writing sessions between founding members Jason, Josh, and Ira sparked what would become ‘Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is’, their debut EP released in January 2025 on High End Denim Records. Tracks like ‘Streetlights’ and ‘Down on Queen’ introduced listeners to a band unafraid to mix emotional honesty with punk aggression.
The lineup has since solidified with Josh Lavigne (vocals), Ira Banks (guitar), Brandon Doyle (guitar), Pete MacDonald (bass), and Jason Ezeard (drums). Each member brings decades of experience in East Coast punk and hardcore, but TeethOut is more than a throwback project—it’s a reaction to the chaos of modern life and a commitment to staying loud through it all.
Now, with their second EP ‘Brittle But Elite’ arriving April 25th, 2025, TeethOut continues to push their sound. Featuring a guest spot from Madison Regan (Last Good Thing) on the lead track ‘Lifeline II’, the new record digs deeper into themes of regret, survival, and hope in a collapsing world. From the explosive melancholy of ‘Walking Down’ to the stripped-down vulnerability of ‘Cancel Me (Acoustic)’, the EP balances chaos with clarity—delivered at full speed.
They may not be 20 anymore, but TeethOut is still chasing that same reckless joy, still shouting into the void, and still finding connection in every bar chord.
