The Creeps


An uninhibited, unpretentious garage rock band, The Creeps were formed in Sweden in 1985. Taking as their principal starting point the work of The Animals, Robert Jelinek (vocals, guitar), Hans Ingemansson (Hammond organ), Anders Olsson (bass) and Patrick Olson (drums) have become something of a Scandinavian Hamsters via their hard-gigging schedule. Their second album, 'Now Dig This', was released in 1988. Their most popular song, "Ooh I Like It", became a major Swedish hit two years later, and was eventually voted Best Song Of The Year by MTV viewers in 1990. The parent album, 'Blue Tomato', proved another major success, though The Creeps’ fixation with live performance has never been properly converted to the studio. Such was the scale and intensity of their touring that they were forced to take a career break in the early 90s with various members on the verge of nervous breakdowns. Refreshed, they returned in 1993 with the typically upbeat 'Seriouslessness', a superbly rendered collection of bar-room R&B songs. [SOURCE: ALLMUSIC
