3TEETH is an industrial metal band hailing from Los Angeles, California, known for its scathing blend of heavy guitar riffs, abrasive electronic elements, and biting socio-political commentary. Formed in 2013, the band—composed of Alexis Mincolla (vocals), Xavier Swafford (keys), Andrew Means (drum programming, modular synth), and Chase Brawner (guitars)—quickly garnered attention for their dystopian aesthetic and aggressive sound reminiscent of industrial behemoths like Ministry and Nine Inch Nails. The band's live performances, characterized by high-energy shows and striking visual elements, have fortified their reputation as a formidable presence within the genre.

The band's discography showcases a relentless quest to push the boundaries of industrial music, with releases like their self-titled debut album "3TEETH" in 2014 and the politically charged follow-up "shutdown.exe" in 2017. Their 2019 album "METAWAR," produced by Sean Beavan—who has worked with acts like Marilyn Manson and NIN—further cemented their standing with hard-hitting tracks that resonate with the turbulent zeitgeist. The single "PUMPED UP KICKS," a cover of Foster the People's hit song, transformed the pop tune into a dark, punishing industrial anthem, which exemplifies the band's ability to reinterpret existing material through their unique lens. Their latest offerings, such as "EndEx" and "Higher Than Death," continue to solidify 3TEETH's place in the pantheon of industrial metal, combining apocalyptic themes with a visceral sound that commands attention and challenges the status quo.
