The Savannah-via-Philadelphia band Creepoid offers a dissonant mix of grunge, psychedelia, and shoegaze. Their first two albums revealed a heavy debt to '90s alt-rock, and their new collection, Cemetery Highrise Slum, showcases a devotion to disorientation

"Earlier in the night...Creepoid took the stage. They played as if they were reviving the grunge-filled chaos of Sonic Youth... circa '93, but with the finesse of mid-period Creation Records shoegaze acts like Swervedriver or Slowdive. The sound was full of fury, but the dual vocals of guitarist Sean Miller and bassist Anna Troxell soared like an airy wave that enveloped the listener in a blanket of sweet nothings." - THE DALLAS OBSERVER
"...Creepoid is something altogether novel. The young, co-ed Philadelphia quartet knows full well how to crank up the distortion--but it does so in service of a dreamy, drifting, wistful indie-rock. That said, Creepoid's debut full-length, Horse Heaven, isn't some polished piece of car-commercial fodder; just raw and snaky enough to feel eerily unhinged, the disc simmers like vat of molasses as the vocals of guitarist Sean Miller and bassist Anna Troxell build to a sweet, black oblivion." - AV CLUB
"its a fucked-up record for fucked up- people" - Zoe Camp, Pitchfork, 2015
