Different is heartache, different is pain, but I’d rather be different than be the same

If you have a taste for terror, you have a date with Carrie

CARRIE! One of the best horrors of all time is having a screening out our favourite queer venue of the moment, Dalston Superstore and we, The Creeps will be there – here’s a deets: Second Chance Cinema presents a FREE screening of Brian De Palma’s ‘Carrie’ (1976) to welcome in Halloween on Wednesday, 28 October [...]

Looking over the edge, you could see them coming

♫ Wild Nothing – Cloudbusting (MP3) I’d had Cloudbusting by Kate Bush floating around my head for a few days, when I co-incidentally came across this cover by Wild Nothing. I have to admit generally getting off on cover versions of songs that snobs think are TOO SACRED to touched by anyone. This cover version [...]

Hollow and heavy now it seems

SO! Here’s a list of tracks that I’m currently STOKED on (been watching too much LA Ink). In this mixtape post edition, I’ll be calling forth music of the past and JUXTAPOSING it against some fresh 2009 tracks!

Thanks so much to everyone who came down for CREEP on Thursday! We’re usually in the basement and it’s usually tonnes more [...]

For the time being baby, live by my rules

The original is almost as surreal in that the lyrics sound completely mental in a seemingly normal context! They’re actually both amazing in their own ways! CHECK-IT-OUT: ♫ Lou Christie [...]

Hey sister, go sister, soul sister, flow sister

This lady to me is the STAR of the Beethoven movie!! I remember as a child being furious that she got CUT in the prime of her performance by the stinking child drowning. Cruelly, you can hear wafts of her magical vocal stylings over the splashing and drowning. Worth skipping through the drowning to hear [...]

The night begins to turn your head around

♫ Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons – The Night (MP3) GOD! I can’t tell you how much I’m loving revisiting this track at the moment. I have such a crush on 60s (and early 70s) soul songs that pit powerfully upbeat backing tracks against crushingly dark lyrics. This one is definitely in the top [...]

Oh NO! Someone left the cake out…

I don’t think I can take it! It took so long to bake it! What a creep.

Too many creeps
