Showing Teeth Unveils Bad Exchanges Video Ahead of September EP Release and Fall Tour
Showing Teeth has dropped a fresh music video for its single “Bad Exchanges,” setting the tone for the band’s upcoming EP and a fall tour. The clip, uploaded to YouTube on July 23, 2026, follows the track’s premiere a month earlier and serves as a visual teaser for the project slated to hit shelves on September 4.
The seven‑song EP, A Fate Worse Than Loneliness, will feature “Bad Exchanges” alongside six other tracks—“Labyrinth,” “Make It Out,” “Rip,” “Shallow Grave,” “A&Ox1,” and “Paradigm.” The release marks the first joint effort between Showing Teeth and Spinefarm and Republic Records, a partnership announced in late July that will see both labels handle the EP’s digital and physical distribution.
In tandem with the EP’s launch, the band will open for President on the North American leg of their tour, sharing the bill with Cenobia. The tour kicks off on September 4 in Nashville and wraps on October 14 in Dallas, with Showing Teeth performing at 18 venues across the United States and Canada: - September 4 – Nashville, TN – Brooklyn Bowl - September 5 – St. Louis, MO – Delmar Hall - September 8 – Chicago, IL – Riviera Theatre - September 10 – Brooklyn, NY – Brooklyn Paramount - September 11 – Toronto, ON – Danforth Music Hall - September 12 – Montreal, QC – MTELUS - September 13 – Boston, MA – Big Night Live - September 15 – Philadelphia, PA – Theatre of Living Arts - September 16 – Silver Spring, MD – The Fillmore Silver Spring - September 19 – Huntsville, AL – Mars Music Hall - September 20 – Charlotte, NC – The Underground (Showing Teeth not scheduled) - September 22 – Buena Vista, FL – House of Blues - September 23 – Atlanta, GA – Buckhead Theatre - September 25 – Kansas City, MO – Warehouse On Broadway - September 26 – Denver, CO – Summit Music Hall - September 28 – Salt Lake City, UT – The Depot - September 29 – Las Vegas, NV – Brooklyn Bowl - October 1 – Garden City, ID – Revolution Concert House and Event Center - October 2 – Seattle, WA – Neptune Theatre - October 6 – Berkeley, CA – UC Theatre - October 7 – Los Angeles, CA – The Wiltern - October 9 – San Diego, CA – House of Blues - October 10 – Phoenix, AZ – The Van Buren - October 12 – San Antonio, TX – Aztec Theatre - October 13 – Houston, TX – House of Blues - October 14 – Dallas, TX – House of Blues
The tour’s mix of mid‑size venues and larger theaters offers the band a broad audience reach across the continent. Showing Teeth’s appearance follows their recent signing with Spinefarm and Republic, two labels with extensive distribution networks in the heavy‑metal sphere.
Addison, the Nashville‑based vocalist and songwriter behind Showing Teeth, blends melodic deathcore with atmospheric flourishes. The EP’s title, A Fate Worse Than Loneliness, signals a thematic focus on isolation and personal struggle that the new material explores.
Spinefarm Records, founded in Finland in 1990 and acquired by Universal Music Group in 2002, has a long history of championing metal acts. Republic Records, an American imprint of Universal that launched in 1995 and re‑branded in 2012, complements Spinefarm’s roster with a broad pop‑to‑rock reach.
The “Bad Exchanges” video showcases the artist’s signature visual style, pairing stark imagery with dynamic performance footage. While the clip does not present new chart data or sales figures, it functions as a promotional tool ahead of the EP’s release.
Fans can look forward to the full EP dropping on September 4, followed by a series of live performances that will span the remainder of the year. The tour’s final stop in Dallas on October 14 marks the end of the North American run, after which the band’s next public appearances remain unannounced.
With a new EP, a high‑profile tour partnership, and major label backing, Showing Teeth is poised for increased visibility within the heavy‑metal community. Industry observers and fans alike will be watching the upcoming releases and performances closely.
