Creep On Creepin' On is the fourth studio album by Timber Timbre, released on April 5, 2011 on Arts & Crafts.[6] The album was recorded in a variety of locations, including a converted church.[7]
The album was supported by a variety of concert dates in Ontario, Quebec and New York.[7] It debuted at #21 on the Canadian Albums Chart, and was a shortlisted nominee for the 2011 Polaris Music Prize.[8]
Kirk described the album as "...a certain effort to be obscure and dark and scary and kind of menacing ... and it was almost to the point of kitsch, but not... there was an awareness and irony about it, almost to the point of it being a Halloween doo-wop mix tape or something — Monster Mash kind of shit."[9]
