Background

Creeper first announced Sounds from the Void on 14 May 2020, at the same time as their second album Sex, Death & the Infinite Void was delayed to July that year.[1] The first track of the series, a cover of King Dude's "Spiders in Her Hair" performed by vocalist Will Gould and guitarist Ian Miles, followed the next day.[2] On 9 July, a cover of Neil Young and Crazy Horse's "My My, Hey Hey (Out of the Blue)" followed, which Gould revealed had been the inspiration for the band's early song "Into the Black", featured on their 2014 self-titled debut EP.[3] The EP was released on streaming platforms on 14 May 2021 with an added cover of the Ramones track "Pet Sematary".[4]
