Taking its name from an influential 17th century scientific work by Robert Hooke which pioneered the microscope and its use on insects and plants, Bug Teeth’s Micrographia, like its namesake, hones in on the small things, amidst life’s larger struggles.
Shocked by the passing of their mother in 2021, band founder/songwriter PJ Johnson, Micrographia questions how to cope with and heal after the complexity of sudden, tragic loss. Via a pristinely beauteous blend of 90s dream-pop, Hauntological indie, ambient, breakcore and psychedelia; the literary works of H.G Wells or Murakami, and the naturalism of Ivor Abrahams, Bug Teeth translate the most traumatic of human experiences into ephemeral, otherworldly art.
