Adore Releases New Song “Show Me Your Teeth”
Irish garage-punk trio Adore, consisting of Lara Minchin (guitar/vocals), Lachlann Ó Fionnáin (bass/vocals) and Naoise Jordan Cavanagh (drums), released the second single of 2025 called “Show Me Your Teeth” on May 8, 2025, following “Stay Free Old Stranger”.
The song fuelled by months of sleep deprivation, recurring nightmares, and the strange clarity that comes from staring fear in the face.
It was written by Lachlann Ó'Fionnáin, Lara Minchin, Lauren McGovern, and Naoise Jordan Cavanagh. Produced by Irish post-punk band Gilla Band's bassist Daniel Fox.
The band lead singer Lara Minchin said of the song, “Show Me Your Teeth was written during a period where I had nightmares every night for 5 months. These nightmares often lead to me waking up several times throughout the night, resulting in several nightmares with different, sometimes interwoven storylines. An ambivalence developed towards these nightmares which then translated into waking life.”- She continued, “It's about wanting to see the imperfections alongside the ideal, about wanting intentions to be revealed; good or bad and the excitement of anticipation of the unknown being revealed.”
She added, “Musically, I'm never quite sure what has inspired a particular song because it's all rather subconscious, but I do remember I was listening to the album Deluxe 85 by Sanity Band and Double Thriller by The Glands on repeat!” -
