The Creases – ‘I Won’t Wait’
With a hint of spring currently fleeting across the horizon, with pub gardens beckoning and the unstoppable disappointment of a rain-filled summer looming, we thought it best to keep you nice and relaxed with a haze-filled trip down the beach with Brisbane band The Creases and their track ‘I Won’t Wait’. Its indie charm and childlike delivery, coupled with a sun-shining day, have made it our Track Of The Day.
Over in Austin, Texas, right now, the musical world is gearing up to name you the ‘10,15,20 greatest new bands to come out of SXSW ever!!!’ As the South By South West festival clicks into full swing, we thought we would take a look at one of our favourite bands playing those dusty deserts.
Brisbane-born The Creases, formed of Joe, Jarrod, Aimon, and Gabe, are most fervently one of those favourites.
Flaking indie credentials away in the afternoon sun, these boys have a slightly more angular approach to their lo-fi appointments.
They maintain a laid-back, sun-drenched, and hazy vibe while still seeming art-driven and potently melodic. Taking clear inspiration from UK indie, this track’s far from the pseudo-psyche filtering through from Down Under.
‘I Won’t Wait’ is a clear indication of a fantastic Summer ahead for The Creases. They easily meander through the stoner rock genre, past the haze-filled indie, around the arthouse stylings, and end up with not only a classic track but a clear, competent aesthetic.
But enough of the technicalities for now. Just sit back, drink a beer, and enjoy.
