Sanguivore [LP], Creeper, Vinyl

For Sanguivore, Creeper made a blood pact to give full rein to the things that define them; taking a torch to the more dimly lit recesses of frontman Will Gould's ever-fertile mind. The result is 40 plus minutes combining the grandiose and epic with the punk rock spirit that has been a cornerstone of their sound: a ripped leather jacket wrapped in a plush velvet cloak - a cloak lined in red satin, of course. Sanguivore is a hugely ambitious, loosely conceptual journey through the glorious and the graphic.
