    Biography

    Moody Bay Area punk quartet Creative Adult came together in 2012 as an amalgam of players from other local bands such as No Sir, All Teeth, and Life Long Tragedy. The newly reconfigured band -- Scott Phillips, Michael Fenton, James Rogers, Ian Simpson, and Michael Bingham -- quickly set about creating a sound that owed much to goth punk legends like Bauhaus and Joy Division, but leaned toward far more aggressive post-hardcore attitudes in line with contemporaries like Pissed Jeans or the Men. Little time was wasted, and before the end of 2012, the band issued its debut EP, Dead Air, on the Broke Hatre label. They followed it up the next year with a series of releases on cassette and 7", as well as the Bulls in the Yard EP. The band toured the country and by 2014 had released their first full-length offering with the angsty Psychic Mess, this time working with Run for Cover Records. For 2016's Fear of Life, the group opted for a more jangly, melodic approach informed by the Smiths and Oasis. ~ Fred Thomas, Rovi
