Teen Creeps drop indie-rock banger ‘No-Show’
Four years after their album “FOREVER”, Belgian indie rockers TEEN CREEPS are back with a new single. The gruff “NO-SHOW” is a return to form: fuzzy guitar riffs, energetic drums and a dash of melancholy immediately make it clear that the band is still hungry after more than 10 years. A ripping guitar solo is the cherry on the cake. You could call it DINOSAUR JR on speed or a distillate of the best of the FOO FIGHTERS. But equally, you can discern the influence of indie hero SPARKLEHORSE. So, as always, TEEN CREEPS eagerly harks back to the nineties. “That’s in our DNA. But we’re not a retro band. We just want to carry the torch. Or at least keep the fire burning,” says Joram De Bock (guitar).
‘NO-SHOW’ is the first single from the new album “TODAY IS THE DAY”, which will be released on 5 September via [PIAS] Recordings
Dios Negasi and Tone Fultz say “Turn Off All That Weak S@#t.” New single from the lethal team of Dios Negasi (of Reagan Era Records) on the mic and Tone Fultz (aka Messiah Of Madness) on production pulls no punches. Hard-hitting, hard-body lyricism and smackin’ samples are in full effect.
Listen to “Turn Off All That Weak S@#t”:
This single from the newly released Iron Angeles LP (out now via all streaming services) is a welcome return to the rugged n’ real hip-hop of the golden age. Another single from the album “What It Is” also features a verse from Reagan Era’s Skrillz Dior).

A cross-country link-up as Tone Fultz left his lab in Pittsburgh to record in Reagan Era’s home turf of Los Angeles. As the producer states “though the Steel City is a cloudy and dark place and Los Angeles is known for its sunny weather, the two have a long history of creating legendary music together including Mel-Man and Sam Sneed’s work with Dr. Dre and Bud’Da’s producing ‘Bow Down’ for Westside Connection.” This extends to the album voice-over which makes the project feel like a long-lost blaxploitation action flick of the grimiest proportions.
While Dios Negasi is known for producing his own tracks (including the recent single “Domingre Gang” featuring Young Zee) and Tone Fultz also rocks the mic in his alter-ego Messiah Of Madness, both artists stick to one role here. As Tone relates, “Dios and I have been like brothers over the past few years. I come to Los Angeles regularly to dig records, and he mentioned he was slowing down on production to focus more on rhyming. Meanwhile I was in a producer zone so I started cooking up beats specifically for this project. I came to visit when a bunch of tracks and as we cooked up in the studio, members of Reagan Era came through and it was a totally organic process.”
