Creature Comfort, unlike their name may suggest, are no slackers. Pavement songs may have entered their playlist by accident, but this group has more in common with the world-conquering ambitions of bands like indie-pop stars like Arcade Fire (whom they mythologize on a recent single).
If you’ve been looking to trace back the recent history of indie rock, Creature Comfort is a good place to start.
From their haircuts, their well-groomed bears, to their confident songwriting skills, these lads are going places.
