Beartooth

Beartooth began as Caleb Shomo's one-man studio project in Columbus, Ohio, and grew into a full band built on his blunt, personal writing about depression and anxiety. Their records mix metalcore heaviness with punk speed and big singalong choruses, a sound that has carried songs like "In Between" and "The Past Is Dead" onto rock radio without sanding down the aggression.

Disgusting (2014). Their debut is where the whole sound is laid out, with Shomo handling nearly every instrument. "In Between," "Beaten in Lips," and "The Lines" are all here, and it is still the record most fans point new listeners to first.

Biography

Beartooth is an American rock band founded by vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Caleb Shomo in Columbus, Ohio, in 2012. Originally, Beartooth was a studio project with Shomo performing all instruments, before expanding to a group with four or five members over their existence. They are known for relatively more conventional songwriting than some of Shomo's other work, with an emphasis on melodic hooks and catchy choruses. Beartooth has been signed to Red Bull Records since 2013; their debut EP Sick was released on July 26, 2013, followed by the debut full-length album Disgusting on June 10, 2014. Since then, Shomo has released a further five studio albums under the Beartooth moniker: Aggressive (2016), Disease (2018), Below (2021), The Surface (2023), and Pure Ecstasy (2026).
