Creatures of An Hour

It’s fitting that Still Corners would call their major-label debut something as elementarily ghoulish as Creatures of an Hour. The half-American, half-English duo makes seductively eerie electro-pop, with inspiration coming in equal shares from the legendary Euro-centric synthwave movement and heralded Italian horror-flick soundtracks. Like the cinephiles they are, Still Corners emphasis mood and atmosphere as the most important part of their music – with Greg Hughes likening himself to something of a director. It must be working; it got them signed to Sub Pop after all. Creatures of an Hour is set for release on Oct. 11.
