Teeth Of The Sea are an English post rock band from London that formed in 2006, and consist of Jimmy Martin (guitar), Mike Bourne (keyboards), Sam Barton (bass, trumpet), and Mat Colegate (drums). They are signed to Rocket Records and have released four albums and a number of singles.

Biography
The band were formed in 2006. Martin previously was a member of Angel Witch. They initially featured John Hirst and Darren Strickland. In 2009 the band released Orphaned By The Ocean. It was followed in 2012 by Your Mercury.

In 2013 the band released the album Master, described as "weird, majestic and abrasive". Martin later noted that "The making of Master was very long, to the point of being slightly frustrating, although we were really happy with the end result".

In 2014 the band performed a live sound track to 'Nineteen Eighty-Four' at CERN as part of the Cineglobe Film Festival.

In November 2015 they released their fourth album, the six track Highly Deadly Black Tarantula. The album included the song "Love Theme for 1984" that had been written for the CERN performance. In reaction to the long recording process of Master the four members took a "very direct and stripped back [approach], with less of the interludes and longueurs we’ve become known for", according to Martin. While the first three albums featured paintings by John Ball, the cover of the fourth album included a photograph by Oli McAvoy.

Style
Teeth of the Sea are an instrumental band who incorporate cinematic elements, citing Ennio Morricone and Goblin as influences. London Stereo described the band as "electronic drone metal for the dancefloor, with trumpets".
