In a press release for the debut album, American Teeth revealed he and producer Colin Brittain (All Time Low, A Day to Remember, ONE OK ROCK) were able to capture bittersweet emotions. They focused on “Kickflip” and how skating became an expressive outlet for the artist during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“I was in a low, and I was looking for things to do to help me get out of the rut I was in post-breakup,” American Teeth says. “I started skating every night around the park in my neighborhood. I was determined to learn to skate, and everything was shut down due to the pandemic.”

“Everything felt vacant. All of the basketball hoops were stripped of their nets so people wouldn’t play,” American Teeth continues. “I felt so much frustration—like we were collectively being told we can’t gather together and can’t have fun. I felt like everyone was feeling this emptiness and decided to write ‘Kickflip’ as a way to project a positive outcome despite being in a rough mental state. ‘We’re still messed up, but we’re all OK.’”
