Creature announce new EP ‘Haunt’
CREATURE have announced a new EP!
Titled Haunt, the upcoming EP from the Birmingham-based alternative band is the final chapter in their trilogy of EPs (following Hex and Hound), and is scheduled to be released in June this year, via Grey Ghost Records.
After locking themselves away, the band are back with a fistful of riffs and instilled with a renewed sense of purpose. The upcoming EP was recorded by UK producer/engineer Steve Sears [GALLOWS, GOLD KEY, ROLO TOMASSI].
“It’s so easy to fixate on things out of your control,” vocalist/guitarist James Thompson remarks. “it creates a heightened sense of self-awareness, making you think there’s something wrong with you. Doubt creeps up and it can become all-consuming. You can easily fixate on the delusion of death, thinking that something is killing you and the certainty of it happening.”
Alongside the announcement of the new EP, CREATURE have released a new music video for the first song lifted from the upcoming EP; All. Speaking on their latest single, Thompson comments, “the state of inequality in the world inspired me to write All. We were more than a decade into austerity in the UK at the time of my writing it, and yet the Government was still spending ridiculous sums on War and conflict. It’s taken something as serious as an ongoing pandemic for us to see how fragile a society we truly are.
I’m angry, but the message of the song is a positive one. We are all in this together. We all have value to add to this planet, we can prosper if we organise and help each other. This is very much how we see CREATURE as a band, it’s not about us and them with our fans – we are all part of the movement. This is an important ethic to us. There is no divide.”
