Creepers Want You to Join the ‘Children of the Vortex’

Ever find yourself scrolling through TV channels in the middle of the night, only to stumble upon some weird shit you'd have a hard time explaining to your friends the next day? Keep that in mind as you watch Creepers' new video for "Children of the Vortex."

The San Francisco band (featuring Deafheaven's Shiv Mehra and Dan Tracy) has been running for a few years now, and the band dropped their newest EP, The Lost Transmissions, yesterday. Today, they're premiering their video for "Children of the Vortex," one of the record's most psychedelic tracks. Various computer-generated worlds collide and compress, making for a dizzying experience while the music soaks everything up. The closest thing the song has to a chorus is the band casting a wave of sound over your ears, a massively refreshing stream of guitars. Creepers push beyond shoegaze and into an invigorating, original sound.

Watch the video below, and get The Lost Transmissons from Bandcamp. Catch the band on tour with Alcest and the Body.
