John Grant and Wrangler detail collaborative album, share first single "Pink Squirrel"

Grant and Wrangler (Stephen Mallinder, Phil Winter, and Benge) came together in 2016 during the Rough Trade birthday celebrations at the Barbican, working on a full set of new material for the performance together instead of relying on previously released music.

"[Creep Show] sprang fully formed a couple of years ago but in truth had been bubbling away for decades in a petri dish containing spores of '70s sci-fi, post-punk electronic music, bad taste, broken synthesizers, luscious film soundtracks, and dubious band T-shirts..." explains Mallinder. "Creep Show is Hydra; a beast with multiple heads and voices, so no one is quite sure who is saying and doing what. Everything is permitted and everything is possible."

"I do like theatre of the absurd and some of it is that, but most of it is just having fun," adds Grant. "We did a lot of laughing and just had a blast doing it."

Mr Dynamite was recorded in Cornwall using Benge's array of synths and drum machines.
