Creature Creature marked their return to Brighton’s music scene with their anthemic single, “The Noise” featuring Billy Lunn of The Subways.
From their forthcoming EP of the same name,“The Noise” is not only a defiant stand for Creature Creature, a band that refuses to be silenced by the trials and tribulations they’ve faced, but also a high-octane force to be reckoned with.
The band found themselves like others grappling with the global pandemic. As it stopped life for many, it also turned off the spotlight that the band was beginning to step into. Instead of succumbing to the loss, Creature Creature found respite and then renewal in Billy Lunn from The Subways.
Billy says this of the band, the single, and upcoming EP,
“This band are, more than anything, brimming with fun and energy – even as they tackle social matters in their songs. Fantastic musicians, and everyone should check out this banging EP. ‘The Noise’ is a great example of what’s in store.”
Creature Creature drew on their inner strength and with Billy by their side, put themselves back in the game, or should I say music scene. Exuding a spirit of defiance, the band polished their sound and the result is “The Noise.”
“The Noise” is proof of the band’s commitment to themselves and to music. But it’s also proof that DIY artists can make magic happen when hard work, talent, and skillmanship are the foundation. Perhaps that’s what drew Billy Lunn to Creature Creature.
What draws me to Creature Creature and “The Noise” is that it’s damn infectious. It’s filled with driving drums, rumbling bass, and wailing guitars. Zeus (guitars), Seb Cole (keyboards), Dave Cobley (bass) and Matt Hill (drummer) are fierce and furious in sound and tempo. Then there are the vocals. Charming and irresistible, there’s a biting grit to Scully’s vocals but there’s also this wonderful intonation that’s angry and angst filled that sets souls on fire.
“The Noise” is a fist raising, sing-a-long anthem that needs to be turned up to eleven. It proves the resiliency of Creature Creature and it proves that “The Noise” is perfectly punk.
