In early 2020, Brighton’s alt-rock/punk band Creature Creature was primed for success.

However, the COVID pandemic brought their momentum to an abrupt halt, leading to a string of show cancellations and a lukewarm reception for their album in a world overshadowed by the pandemic.

Undeterred, Creature Creature saw this period as an opportunity for introspection and strategic planning. They emerged more resilient, ready for a comeback with their new EP, symbolizing their journey of persistence and renewal. Their music, inspired by the likes of Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes, Royal Blood, IDLES, and Dinosaur Pile-Up, showcases a diverse blend of rock and punk, evident in singles like “Video Nasty,” “Mean Streets (Reprise),” and “Broken Windows.”

As 2020 dawned, Brighton-based alt-rock/alt-punk band Creature Creature was riding a wave of momentum. Fresh from recording their first full-length album, they were poised for a year of extensive touring and a major publicity push. A group of dedicated musicians – Scully as the lyricist/frontman, Zeus on guitar, Seb Cole handling keyboard/keytar/backing vocals, Dave Cobley on bass, and Matt Hill on drums – the band was ready to show the world what they were made of, both on the charts and on the road. 

You already know what happens next: enter COVID. And with that, the band’s ascending trajectory was abruptly halted. The ensuing months saw a cascade of cancellations and disappointments: live shows were axed, the publicity machine ground to a halt, and the much-anticipated release of their debut album, Two Finger Tantrum, was mired in uncertainty, eventually finding a modest reception in a landscape reshaped by the global pandemic.

In the shadow of these setbacks, Creature Creature refused to succumb to disillusionment. Instead, they embraced this period as a time for deep introspection and strategic planning. This challenging phase became a crucible for growth, out of which emerged a revitalized and more resilient band. Now, with their new EP on the horizon, Creature Creature is poised for a monumental comeback, armed with hard-earned lessons and a renewed fervor.

This eclectic mix is evident in their discography, which includes the impactful singles “Video Nasty,” “Mean Streets (Reprise),” and “Broken Windows,” as well as the deeply personal and reflective “Saturday Night Slaughter,” a track inspired by the legacy of Robert Miles.

Their journey, marked by its highs and lows, has been observed and celebrated by the music press. Rocklifestyle Magazine recognized the band’s inherent star quality, giving a perfect score and proclaiming, “Creature Creature are ready to take the journey into becoming rockstars in their own right…10/10.” This sentiment The Brighton Magazine took this sentiment a step further, going as far as naming Creature Creature “the new flag bearers of rock,” a title that speaks to the band’s undeniable presence and in their iron resolve in setting a new standard for what rock can be.

A pivotal moment came in the summer of 2022 when Billy Lunn from The Subways took the band under his wing to record the EP.
