notes

MEET THE CREEPING CRUDS... The Cruds are four creepy bastards who are working on a very evil experiment in a cold, creepy laboratory on the seedy side of Nashville, TN. That project, entitled The Incredibly Strange People Who Stopped Living and Became The Creeping Cruds, now completed is finally unleashed on the unsuspecting public. A plague of evil spreads across The South... Teenage Rawk zombies will turn against their parents. Good kids will go bad, bad kids will go even badder. Our faithful following will pen their allegience and sign it in their mother's blood and send it to us with their daddy's wallet. In return, The Creeping Cruds will provide the mightiest Rock 'n Roll ever known to man. Three nasty chords and a cloud of dust that most certainly will topple the tallest buildings.
This ain't your daddy's horror band.. This is Rock & Roll at it finest, paying tribute to the era of Shock that The Cruds were weaned on..

  • Manic Horror Rock Madness
    author: Kody Krud

    This CD was awesome. After hearing the intro guitar riff to I eat the living, I was hooked on the creeping cruds. This CD was the best I have purchased in years.

  • author: James

    This cd will gnaw it's way into your brain faster than a plague of zombies. Imagine Motorhead and old-school Kiss getting together to jam in a Nashville cemetery at midnight, and you'll start to get an idea of what this album entails. This is straight-up, kickass, horror-themed rock n' roll. What could be better? It's Crudtastic!

  • Somehow "F$%#ing Amazing" doesn't quite say it!
    author: Buetros

    I thought that I had died and gone to heaven after hearing this album. The beats are catchy, the lyrics are violent, and the guitars are frickin' sick! A must have for any horror punk fan!

  • Full on Rock!!!!
    author: Don

  • It totally fuckin' rocks and it's all very scary.
    author: Jeff Dahl for Carbon14 Magazine

    The Creeping Cruds- The Incredibly Strange People Who Stopped Living and Became The Creeping Cruds (www.creepingcruds.com) The horror branch of the Punk Rock tree seems to fall into two basic categories: quasi-metal-punk a la Misfits or Cramps style 50's ranting and raving. The Cruds are a bit of both but, genetically, fall closer to the latter. They definitely have some Hasil Adkins and Billy Lee Riley chromosomes floating around the gene pool and I betcha they could even knock out a killer version of "I Put A Spell on You". Let's call it psychobilly with a liberal dose of Ramone/Dead Boy punk. Over a wall of big and nasty guitars, vampires, brains, zombies, werewolves and even good ol' Godzilla are all regaled with heroic tales of their exploits by a voice that's one part Drano, one part broken glass.. it totally fuckin' rocks and it's all very scary. - Jeff Dahl

  • Horror-Punk disc of the year?
    author: UrotSukiDoji CD Reviews

    This is one of those very rare Horror-Punk platters that actually does not sound like a Misfits clone, and yet still manages to kick large amounts of rotted, undead ass! These musically inclined horror movie junkies hail from Nashville Tennessee, and man do they rock. We start things off with a spoken word intro by Nashville TV horror host "Dr. Gangrene". This is pretty amusing, and it reminds me a lot of the crazy rants Kurt Russell's character, "Jack Burton", would go off on in the movie "Big Trouble In Little China". This segues nicely into "All Hail The Horror Host", and things never let up from that point on. Their overall sound on this debut is very hard to pin down, as the vocal delivery changes from track to track, depending on what will work best, and the musical style seems to be pretty damn fluid as well. One song will seem like a straight-up Punk anthem, while the next will reek of Alice Cooper, and 70s Glam-Punk. As you slice and dice your way through the disc, you can expect to encounter; Horror-Punk, Hardcore, Glam-Punk, and the occasional Heavy-Metal riff, not to mention a little bit o' understated western flavouring sprinkled here and there. As well, you can expect lots o' cool, albeit obligatory, horror movie samples. Rest assured however it's always heavy, and always frantic. If I had to compare the Cruds to another band, I would say they fall somewhere in between the sounds of Ghoultown and Eerie Ln.. The songs are all well constructed, and have the wondrous, sought after ability to stick with you long after you've wandered away from the stereo. Trust me, you'll be humming "I Eat The Living" for days afterwards. This thing is almost too much fun. But not everything can be fun and games. Among all the tongue in check songs about zombies and vampires is one about real horror, "The Ghosts of West Memphis", which is about the now infamous "West Memphis 3". This horrific case of small town justice gone wrong, has been brought to light in recent years by the likes of everyone from Henry Rollins, to the creators of South Park (Trey Parker and Matt Stone). So, just like how the campiest of Hollywood's horror flicks always manages to have one little chilling moment, there is a little something here to take that smug smirk off your face, even if it's just for a moment. Horror-Punk disc of the year? We shall see, we shall see... For more info, be sure to drag your rotting, festering corpse over to creepingcruds.com. RATING = 9 Horror-Punk (Released 2005)

  • I CRAPPED MY PANTS!
    author: Crowbar

    Thats right, I crapped my pants the first time I heard this album.....BRILLIANT!!

  • A howling rocktail of butched-up Johnny Thunders and Paul Stanley riffs...
    author: Classic Rock Magazine

    A howling rocktail of butched-up Johnny Thunders and Paul Stanley riffs, hairy, hoary, Swede-style motorsleaze, late-night fright-show snippets and pure high-flying rock energy. Beyond the Z-movie goofiness, thss there’s some seriously bad-ass rock ‘n’ roll here.

  • Florida loves The CREEPING CRUDS
    author: Tom Tom

    Hey Jeano!! I found this cd while looking for various Roidz/Shrill music online and discovered that Jeano Roid had actually moved away from Florida & started this band. As usual it's totally BAD-ASS ROCK & ROLL in the style of Jeano's other projex. You cannot mistake THAT guitar style. Truthfully this is some of the best stuff I've purchased in the last couple of years. I hope you guys make it down to Miami soon! Tommy

  • I love it, I love it, I love it
    author: Beekee

    What else is there to say? I love it. It is perfection in horror rock. Can't wait until the Cruds put out something else! I only wish I could see the Cruds live!

  • Creeping Cruds of Americas are largest and most important rock and roll volume.
    author: Freidrich Roth

    Creeping Cruds of Americas are largest and most important rock and roll volume. They are retarded and of Nashville, are very loud and very large.. If the tear of Creeping Cruds in Grausigkeitwirt, which all hell breaks loosely. Their nut/mother shits indeed into it to trousers, when the Cruds draws and rolls their death-provocative mark of the Grausigkeitfelsens left. If you did not know, swings the unbelievably strange people, which stopped to live and creeping Cruds became, pants of your grandmother to the dirty floor mostly filled with shit.

  • Rue Morgue's HIGHEST Rating!
    author: Rue Morgue Magazine

    A cool campy intro by Tennessee horror host Dr. Gangrene and beautiful flesh-rotting artwork by Stephen Blickenstaff greet the listener before The Creeping Cruds tear into ten tracks of badass rawk ‘n’ roll fused with a dangerously geeky obsession with old school horror flicks, monsters and gore. A messed up mutation of AC/DC power riffs, Ramones three-chord catchiness and dark Southern rock, these grown up monster kids don’t just pay tribute to the horrors of their youth, they become them. Only the most B-movie-soaked brain could come up with lyrics as inspired as “M-U-R-D-E-R means your fuckin bloodon the bannsiters” or song titles in the vein of Driving Miss Zombie. Why can’t every horror punk band be this much fun? -AL XXXXX (Five Skulls – Rue-Morgue’s highest rating!)

  • Get it!
    author: The G-Man

    Great horror rock! I've almost worn out my CD already!

  • Oh my it tastes like soot and poo... keep it rockin' Cruds...
    author: Salad Fingers

    This cd is a jem... Rockin' riffs, sweet solo's... And the movie samples so tastefully strewn about like a disemboweled hooker... You guys are twisted, keep it real...

  • I was singing along on the first listen!
    author: James

    Damn the Creeping Cruds.. I can't listen to anything else anymore. The following classification is usually reserved for movies, but this CD is an instant cult classic. 10 tunes of horror greatness. I can't find anything else by these guys but I'm looking.. LOOK OUT!!!!

  • The cruds turn this obsession into 34 minutes of blood, brains & monsters.
    author: Dr. Gangrene, Horror Host from TV's Chiller Cinema

    The Incredibly Strange Creatures who Stopped Living and Became . . .The Creeping Cruds The Creeping Cruds have been a horror staple in Nashville, TN for several years now. They have been at the forefront of the horror movement in Nashville, helping organize horror rock benefits, horror host events, and general mayhem across Middle Tennessee. Now they have released their new feature-fringht CD "The Incredibly Strange Creatures who Stopped Living and Became . . .The Creeping Cruds" This cd is, in my opinion, long overdue. It captures the energetic frenzy of the Cruds live shows while showcasing the vocals of lead guitarist and now lead singer Jeano Crud, who replaces former singer Travis Crud on vocals. Jeano's vocals are, honestly, much better suited for this style of music. Jeano has a big, powerful voice with just the right amount of gravel to deliver the gore. Scattered throughout the disc are audio clips and sounds from horror movies that compliment each song. It is obvious that the Creeping Cruds are, as the name suggests, obsessed with horror and gore. Jeano is the ghoul who leads this charge, and the cruds turn this obsession into 34 minutes of blood, brains and monsters. There are 10 horror-filled songs on this disc, and it's all kicked off with a spoken intro by Nashville's horror host Dr, Gangrene. This leads directly into "All Hail the horror Host," a fast paced tribute to late night movie hosts everywhere. Zacherly and Elvira would be proud, as this song praises the ghouls and goblins who've delivered the creepy content of Creature Features all across the country since the 1950's. It once again features a spoken bit by Jeano's home town host Dr. Gangrene in the middle of the tune. This is one kick ass tune and gets the cd rolling with a bang! The next song is Blood on the Bannisters, a rocking tune that has been on the Cruds playlist for years. It's all about just what the song suggests, violent murder! "M-U-R-D-E-R means blood on the banister." "I Sold My Brain" is a new tune, and one of my favorites. It starts with a clip of Boris Karloff from "House of Frankenstein" telling his poor victim he is going to put his brain in the skull of the Frankenstein Monster! It then cranks into a song all about brain transplants. "Transplant - all I really wanted was a: Transplant - But I couldn't raise the money so I sold my brain, alright!" Next up is a fan favorite from live shows - "I eat the Living." It's zombie brain-munching at it's best! Jeano sings a line and fans shout back "I wanna eat the living." This is one song where you can just tell the live version is even better than the studio version. I'd love to hear a live version included on a future cd. It has a driving guitar riff that sticks with you long after hearing the cd. The song is prefaced with, appropriately, a clip from the original "Night of the Living Dead," a news report describing the dead walking the earth. "Driving Miss Zombie" is a fun song with that same great sense of dark humor that permeates the entire album. "Sleep all day, Driving all night, Driving Miss Zombie to her meal tonight..." There are more zombies per square inch on this cd than you can shake a bloody limb at. There is a hilarious rap in the middle of this tune, introducing the undead dancer Miss Zombie and her driver at Cooter Brown's Barnyard Dance Contest, the biggest squaredance hootenanny contest in 14 counties, including contestants from the four corners of the United States of Appalachia. "The Ghosts of West Memphis" is the one serious song on the cd. It tells a tale of real-life terror and mis-justice. Three small children were killed in Memphis in the 1980s, and the courts sentenced 3 teenagers despite overwhelming evidence pointing to their innocence. These teens were convenient targets because they listened to heavy metal music and wore black clothing. Totally unsubstantiated rumors abounded of their devil worshiping ways. They have spent their entire lives in prison. The Memphis courts refuse to re-hear the trial, and rock benefits are regularly held to raise awareness of the West Memphis 3. "There's a story so profound that you can't believe it, Justice so perverted that you just can't conceive it, A tale of murder, panic and satanic possession, Police corruption, terror and a shotgun confession." "Stomp Tokyo" is a tribute to everyone's favorite 50 foot fire breathing atomically radiated lizard, GODZILLA! The song starts with a helicopter flying in, a roar, and a Japanese voice shouting "it's Godzilla!" Then the Cruds take over! "T-O-K-Y-O: Let's Go!" This is the shortest track on the cd, with catchy lyrics and smoking guitar, very Ramones-esque. Blood Moon is the song of Lawrence Talbot, The Wolfman. "Even a Man who is pure at heart . . ." Begins with that classic line from the Universal films and quickly kicks into overdrive. Beware listening to this one under the full moon. The last tune on the cd is "I, Vampire." This is another song the Cruds have had in their arsenal for a while, and it sounds great here. "I'm coming through your window, I'm knocking at your door, I come into your bedroom, green mist along your floor." The CD sports a terrific cover by Stephen Blickenstaff, a closeup of a rotting zombie. The back cover is a great cartoon of the Creeping Cruds that was done by Jeano himself. The interior is beautifully laid out, resembling an old monster magazine. There are small cartoon images of corpses and monsters, along with full lyrics from all the songs. This CD is highly recommended. The Creeping Cruds are: Manthon on Bass, Phil Crud on drums, Ziggy McNasty on guitar, and Jeano Roid on lead vocals and lead guitar. Their website is www.creepingcruds.com, and you can reach them at creepingcruds@jeanoroid.com Tell em' Dr. Gangrene sent ya!
