I CREEPING NOBODIES sono una band storica della vivace scena
di Toronto. La loro attuale line up comprende membri di diverse
bands canadesi: Sick Lipstick, Currently in These United States,Parts
Unknown, Martyrs, e condivide un membro con la Memory Forever,
team di art-fantasy di Boston. Ispirati da bands come the EX,
Pere Ubu e The Fall, i Creeping Nobodies producono una musica
intrigante che non rinuncia ad esplorare nuovi territori.
Conosciuti come una delle più enigmatiche, incendiarie
ed eccitanti bands di Toronto, tra il 2006 ed il 2007 hanno
suonato numerosi concerti tra Canada e USA. A maggio 2006 hanno
prodotto il loro secondo disco Sound of Joy per la Blocks recording
club. L’album è stato prodotto da Wharton Tiers
(Theoretical Girls) e è stato promosso in tour con i
Wharton Tiers Ensemble. Nell’autunno del 2006 la band
ha fatto il suo più lungo tour coast to coast degli usa,
da san Diego a New Orleans passando per NYC e Monreal. Al tour
è seguita l'uscita di un secondo 12” prodotto dalla
blocks e della dead astronaut. Nei mesi più recenti i
creeping nobodies hanno suonato ancora tra USA e Canada.
Al momento la band sta per esportare la propria musica in Europa.
L’autunno del 2007 vedrà, infatti, l’uscita
di due produzioni europee. La prima sarà un vinile per
l’etichetta svedese Deleted Art intitolato Augurs &
Auspices che conterrà due precedenti ep e nuovo materiale.
L’altra uscita sarà lo split cd con la band italiana
Miranda per la fromSCRATCHrecords. Alla fine di settembre la
band sarà in Finlandia da dove partirà per un
lungo tour europeo.
THE
CREEPING NOBODIES are one of the longest running bands in Toronto’s
constantly evolving music community. Their current line-up encompasses
a broad spectrum of the Toronto scene, with ex-members of the
Sick Lipstick, Currently in These United States, Parts Unknown,
Martyrs, as well as sharing a member with Memories Forever,
the art-fantasy team from Boston. Inspired by such bands as
The Ex, Pere Ubu, and The Fall, The Creeping Nobodies seek to
produce challenging music and are never afraid to explore new
territory or re-invent themselves.
Long known as one of the most enigmatic, incendiary and exciting
bands in Toronto’s underground music scene, The Creeping
Nobodies spent 2006 and 2007 making their presence known throughout
Canada and the United States. In May 2006 they released their
second full-length album Sound of Joy on Blocks Recording Club.
The album was produced by Wharton Tiers (Theoretical
Girls). In support of this release, the band toured with the
Wharton Tiers Ensemble through several cities in the Northeastern
U.S. and Canada. In Fall 2006, the band undertook their largest
tour to date, spanning both sides of the continent, from San
Diego to New Orleans and through to NYC & Montreal. Since
then they have also released a second vinyl recording, a split
12” with
Toronto’s Anagram that was released as a collaboration
between both Blocks and Dead Astronaut. In recent months, The
Creeping Nobodies have toured extensively throughout eastern
Canada and the United states.
Currently, the band is eager to unleash their music on more
distant terrain. Fall 2007 will see the release of two Creeping
Nobodies recordings in Europe. The first will be a full length
vinyl LP on Sweden’s Deleted Art entitled Augurs &
Auspices. This recording compiles two previously released E.P.s,
and also includes newly recorded material. The other recording
will be a split CD with Italian band Miranda on the label fromScratchrecords.
In late September the band will fly to Finland to begin a month
long tour throughout the continent.
