Our Take

British supergroup Creep Show unleash their latest sonic concoction, "Yawning Abyss," and it's a wild ride from start to finish. The album kicks things off with the infectious track "Sugarbeat," a hypnotic blend of pulsating synths and haunting vocals that will have you grooving in no time.

As the album unfolds, Creep Show effortlessly weaves together elements of electronic, pop, and even a hint of psychedelia to create a sound that is entirely their own. Tracks like "Uneasy," with its dark and brooding atmosphere, showcase the band's mastery of creating tension and suspense through their music.

Lead vocalist John Grant shines on tracks like "Modulator," his deep, velvety voice perfectly complementing the band's otherworldly sounds. Meanwhile, the instrumentation on tracks like "Hush" is intricate and layered, inviting the listener to get lost in a sea of synths and beats.

But perhaps the true standout of "Yawning Abyss" is the title track itself. Clocking in at over eight minutes, this epic masterpiece takes the listener on a journey through a sonic landscape that is dark, mysterious, and ultimately cathartic.

In conclusion, Creep Show's "Yawning Abyss" is a triumph of genre-blurring experimentation and sonic exploration. This album is a must-listen for anyone looking to be transported to a new musical dimension. Trust me, you won't be yawning through this one.

About the artist

Creep Show

CREEP SHOW, the dynamic duo of John Grant and Wrangler (Stephen Mallinder, Phil Winter, and Benge), have managed to create a sound that is as infectious as it is baffling. With their debut album, "Mr Dynamite", they've concocted a strange brew of electronic beats, 80s synthpop, and Grant's signature baritone vocals that make you want to dance and scratch your head at the same time. Grant, known for his introspective and often humorous lyrics, brings a unique perspective to the table, while Wrangler's pulsating rhythms and experimental sonic textures add a whole new dimension to the music. The result is a sound that is both familiar and utterly alien, like stumbling upon a long-lost cassette tape from the future. Tracks like "Tokyo Metro" and "Modern Parenting" showcase the band's ability to seamlessly blend the danceable with the cerebral, creating a listening experience that is both a party and a mind-bending journey. Grant's lyrics are as sharp and witty as ever, touching on themes of love, technology, and the absurdity of modern life. In a world where music often feels formulaic and predictable, CREEP SHOW dares to be different. They push boundaries, challenge conventions, and always keep the listener on their toes. With "Mr Dynamite", they have proven once again that they are a force to be reckoned with in the world of electronic music. So put on your dancing shoes, open your mind, and prepare to be dazzled by the enigmatic sounds of CREEP SHOW.
