The Dentists

The Dentists were an English indie pop band from the Medway area in Kent, active primarily during the 1980s and 1990s. Known for their jangly guitar sound and blend of melodic pop with a raw, garage-influenced edge, they carved out a cult following in the UK indie scene. Their 1985 debut album, Some People Are on the Pitch They Think It's All Over It Is Now, is often celebrated for its catchy hooks and energetic vibe, drawing comparisons to other contemporaries in the C86 and post-punk realm.

The band released several albums and EPs throughout their career, including If All The Flies Were One Fly and Deep Six, showcasing their knack for sharp songwriting and inventive melodies. Despite limited mainstream success, The Dentists earned respect from critics and fellow musicians alike, and their music continues to be appreciated by fans of British indie and alternative rock.
