 | | Description: | Kentucky Rock Nâ?? Roll truth teller S.G. Goodman has announced the release of her forthcoming sophomore album Teeth Marks.
Set to be released June 3 via Verve Forecast, the album is steeped in her signature caustic wit and social commentary, specifically exploring the various and often painful indelible marks that love can leave behind.
Mining garage rock, Appalachian folk and post-punk influence, the album finds Goodmanâ??s stirring vocals draped in a sonic patchwork of southern indie rock. Goodman will be performing at SXSW as well as touring across the US, opening for Jason Isbell and more, plus a number of headlining dates.
The title track, which recounts dating as a queer woman and facing the jarring reality of unrequited love over a swirling guitar lick, was debuted via Rolling Stone, who stated, â??Goodman launches a wounded plea at an unavailable lover. Verses and choruses collide with instrumental passages of ethereal beauty, the clouds of ringing feedback calling to mind the mellower side of Yo La Tengoâ?¦ Her voice glasslike and flecked with pain.â?ť
Goodman explained, â??This is a song about the phantom limb of love: a condition in which a loverâ??s mind is deluded and we make the mistake of taking a step forward, only to fall face first into the reality of anotherâ??s heart. A reality we are unwilling to accept â?? a land of false promise we find ourselves not equipped to walk in.â?ť
Raised in Western Kentucky on the Mississippi River Delta, in a strict church going family, Goodman went from singing in church three times a week to a prominent, politically active member of the Murray, KY indie rock scene.
The album is available in the following configurations:
- LP
- CD - Vinyl LP pressing. 2022 release. On her sophomore album, S.G. Goodman brings a series of powerful vignettes to life, with a sound that builds off her Southern roots but ventures deeper into indie rock and punk. Teeth Marks is about what love actually is: it's psychological and physical imprint, it's light and it's darkness."Teeth Marks" on LP is an evocative, emotionally rich album by singer-songwriter S.G. Goodman, released on the renowned jazz and modern music label Verve. Across this long-playing record, Goodman weaves intimate storytelling with a raw, roots-infused sound that draws on Americana, folk and alternative country. Her warm, husky voice and unvarnished lyrics explore themes of desire, memory, trauma and resilience, capturing the "bite marks" that life leaves on us. Carefully sequenced for the vinyl format, the LP invites listeners to sit through the full arc of the record: subdued, haunting ballads stand next to more driving, guitar-based songs, creating a dynamic yet cohesive listening experience with spacious arrangements and an organic, analog feel that particularly shines on turntables.
As an artist, S.G. Goodman is known for her perspective as a queer woman from rural Kentucky, whose songs often touch on social tensions, small-town life and personal vulnerability without lapsing into clichés. Her previous work has earned strong critical acclaim in the indie and Americana scenes, with critics praising her vivid storytelling, striking vocal timbre and a sound that is both timeless and contemporary. "Teeth Marks" continues this trajectory, solidifying her reputation as one of the most compelling narrative voices in modern roots music and confirming her status as a must-listen artist for fans of authentic songwriting.
The LP's production puts Goodman's voice front and center, supported by subtle guitars, atmospheric pedal steel and a rhythm section that leaves plenty of room for silence and nuance. The result is a record that rewards attentive, repeated listening: you can drop the needle and let side A and side B unfold like chapters of a novel, each song adding detail to a larger emotional picture. Audiophiles and collectors will appreciate the classic LP presentation and the way the mastering preserves depth, warmth and dynamic range, making "Teeth Marks" a standout addition to any vinyl collection.
