3Teeth (stylized as 3TEETH or 3T3ETH) is an American industrial metal band from Los Angeles, California. Formed in 2013, the band consists of Alexis Mincolla (vocals), Chase Brawner (guitars), Xavier Swafford (keyboards and synthesizers), Andrew Means (modular synth and bass), and Nick Rossi (drums). They have released four studio albums: their self-titled debut in 2014, shutdown.exe in 2017, Metawar in 2019, and EndEx in 2023.
The group initially formed as a fun passion-project between Mincolla and Swafford, who lived down the street from each other in Los Angeles. Mincolla did not have a musical background but had experience in visual arts and promotion. Mincolla and Swafford met at a weekly party called Lil Death, which was hosted by Mincolla, where they began discussing some ideas for a multi-media mix of visuals and music. The two soon met Andrew Means after being impressed by an online video he sent the pair which Mincolla described as looking "like a computer virus".
After some of their music was hosted online and began to gain traction, the three sought out a guitarist for the project. Guitar work had initially been outsourced but the turnaround time was slow. Means had grown up with Brawner and suggested that the trio audition him, and after a successful audition Chase joined and 3Teeth had officially formed.
The band took the name 3Teeth from the concepts of Odontomancy, which Mincolla described as an ancient form of divination where "the seer would read prophecies in the teeth like rune stones." as well as the word trident, which comes from Latin for "three teeth". Mincolla said of the trident: "...this divine weapon of God that brings destruction. It's what Marduk killed Tiamat with -- this caught thunderbolt or trident."
The band was formed by Alexis Mincolla (vocals) and Xavier Swafford (keyboards, synthesizers), with Chase Brawner (guitar) and Andrew Means (bass & modular synth) joining shortly after. Means performed live drums on an electric kit. Andrew Melendez joined as then drummer in 2017 before Justin Hanson joined the group in the fall of 2017. The band signed to Century Media Records in April 2018, with Hanson being announced as the official fifth member of the band. In June 2020, the band announced that they had mutually parted ways with Hanson and that Rossi would be joining them as the new drummer to commence recording on the band's fourth album.
Their self-titled debut album was released in 2014. The album contained the singles: "Pearls 2 Swine", "Master of Decay", and "Nihil". The album took six months to complete and half of the music written was cut from the album. The band was also unsure about how the album would be received. The album reached the number eight spot on iTunes Electronic Music Chart, and number two on iTunes industrial charts. A remix album titled Remixed followed in October 2014, featuring remixes by other prominent industrial artists such as KANGA and Aesthetic Perfection.
The band started working on their second album in 2015 when "Sell Your Face" and "Slavegod" were released online. The band was originally going to spend late 2015 and early 2016 working on the album, but held off writing and recording when the band was hand-selected as the opener's for Tool's 2016 North American tour, along with Primus. In June 2016, the album's lead single, "Degrade" was released. The album's second single, "Atrophy", was released in August 2016. In March 2017, the band announced their second album, <shutdown.exe>, which wad released on May 19, 2017. The album spawned two more singles: "Shutdown", and "Away from Me". The album was self-produced by the band and mixed by Sean Beavan, who is best known for working with other prominent industrial artists Nine Inch Nails and Marilyn Manson. The album reached No. 23 on Billboard the following month. In February 2018, the band released the first of two collaboration tracks, "Light's Out", with hip-hop/punk artists Ho99o9. A second track, "Time's Up", was released in March 2018, and both tracks were later released on a limited edition 7" vinyl following a co-headlining tour titled Lights Out North America. The tour included multiple dates opening for Rammstein on their limited U.S. tour.
The band began working on their third album in early 2018, Instead of being self-produced, the album was produced by Sean Beavan. The title for the third album, Metawar, was announced on April 5, 2019, alongside the release of the debut single "American Landfill". The music video for American Landfill debuted on April 15, 2019. The video was directed by Matthew Santoro, longtime-friend of Alexis Mincolla and Hollywood director and visual effects artist whose credits include X-Men Origins: Wolverine and 300.
