Hailing from Northeast Philadelphia and its surrounding 'burbs, Creepoid has spent 2014 putting out new music at a fervent pace. Releases include Wet, an EP they dropped in April, and their self-titled sophomore LP which was released March 4th. The band will also be releasing a second EP before 2014 is through. This is the first taste of new music that fans have received since the Band’s full-length 2011 debut, Horse’s Heaven.
There’s an excess of ten inches of snow on the ground, more in the process of falling and I am having difficulty getting a phone signal. In the end I am well over a half hour late initiating the scheduled phone interview with Norwegian arms. I am told there are "no worries" as in celebration of being stuck at home due to the sow, Kieth Birthday was making his Jitterbug 7" a free download on his bandcamp just for the day. Keith Birthday is Norwegian Arms: a minimalist "weirdo folk”outfit singing about the human condition and recreational slumming. He accomplishes this armed with only his vocals, a mandolin, synthesizer and occasional drums.
