History

Formation and Early Years

The band began writing music together in early 2013 and released their first EP, Smiling Politely, independently in August 2013.[6] After signing to Hopeless, the band released their second EP Sad Sack in April 2015.[7] On 5 January 2016, after they finished recording their debut album, founding member and guitarist/primary songwriter and occasional lead vocalist Josh Bannister left the band and was replaced by former Hindsights member Billy Hutton as a touring guitarist.[8] The band then released their debut album, Vile Child, on 29 January 2016, through Hopeless Records.[9] This was the last of the band's releases to feature Bannister. In April 2016 the band toured the US, supporting Sorority Noise, Citizen and Turnover. In 2017 the band signed to Roadrunner Records and announced a new EP titles Be Nice, which was released in July 2017, followed up by Go Away, another EP released in November 2017.

2018 to Present Day

On 26 June 2018 it was announced via the band's Facebook page that guitarist Chris Webb would be leaving the band "with immediate effect" [10] following the band finding out information regarding to a long history of sexual misconduct involving Chris and a minor.[11] Em Foster from Nervus filled in on guitar shortly afterwards. After a number of festival dates, on 19 September 2018, the band announced that Billy Hutton was leaving Milk Teeth and confirmed Foster as a full time member, resulting in the band becoming a three piece.[12] This lineup played the EP's Be Nice and Go Away in full, on a short tour around the UK in November of that year, preceding the release of a new single; Stain,[13] and a run supporting Enter Shikari during their "Stop The Clocks" tour in December.[14]

Milk Teeth began 2019 by supporting PUP, on their "Morbid Stuff Tour-pocalypse" tour in April.[15] Performances at several UK festivals followed, including 2000 Trees, Boomtown Fair, Truck Festival and Camden Rocks. After signing to a new label, Music For Nations, the band performed main stage sets at the Reading and Leeds Festivals.[16] Shortly afterwards, drummer Oli Holbrook left Milk Teeth, being replaced by Nervus drummer Jack Kenny, leaving Blomfield as the sole original member of the lineup.[17] Following this change, Milk Teeth once again embarked on a short UK tour with Cultdreams and Nervus, in support of their latest single, Given Up, which was released on 11 October 2019.[18] The following month, Milk Teeth released another single entitled Destroyer, on 29 November.[19]

On 17 January 2020 Milk Teeth officially announced their self-titled second full length album, which was released on 27 March.[20]

Timeline
gollark: That's why salts are recommended (they're a bit of extra data you store along with the password and feed to the hash function when hashing it in the first place and comparing passwords with the hash).
gollark: The main attack on this is that you can, sometimes even using dedicated ASICs/FPGAs, run hashes *very fast* on a lot of possibilities and figure out what the original password was.
gollark: Yep!
gollark: The point is that for one hashed input you always have the same output, so you can compare values without storing what they originally were.
gollark: Encryption means you can encrypt something with a key then decrypt it with that key (symmetric encryption, anyway), hashing means that you irreversibly convert it to a different value.
