"In the world of rock music, innovation and creativity have often been beaten mercilessly into submission and crammed into a nice easy box that is generic enough for fits the tsates of 90% of the audience. Thankfully Creature Feature is something creatively and completely different. This duo from the Los Angeles area wonderfully drags you into the realms of many classic horror movies, and then twists the stories into a dark, mischieveous rock tracks. Not since the days that Danny Elfman led (the Mystic Knights of) Oingo Boingo, has an act tooken such a darkly humorous and rocking auditory excursion.



Creature Feature sings about the circuses that exist in the Twilight Zone, the living dead, monsters, murder and mayhem. As a bonus, children can even learn their ABC's the Edward Gorey way. In an era where a CD is disposable after listening to a couple of tracks, "The Greatest Show Unearthed" is great listening from start to finish."

Finally something different...

"After hearing mostly the same types of music over and over in the so-called "mainstream," finally there is a breather. Here we have something different and VERY Halloween. Think of every old-school horror movie you've seen, and I guarantee this music will remind you of them. I love this soundtrack and almost every song on it. Everything about it is very fun--from the lyrics and the music itself. Can't wait for a second album."

Move over, Monster Mash! There's a new show in town, and it

"I purchased this album before it was picked up and released by Sumerian Records. It is absolutely delightful! With its spooky techno-rock sound, the Vincent Price/Edgar Allan Poe/Edward Gorey (among others) inspired atmosphere and macabre tongue-in-cheek humor, this is a favorite for Halloween and beyond the grave. I encourage everybody to buy themselves a copy to enjoy for themselves...especially late at night when the moon is full, the fog is thick and you've had your fill of horror movies. My personal favorite tracks are "Buried Alive", "Such Horrible Things" and "A Gorey Demise"."
