Philadelphia shoegaze veterans Creepoid are making a long-awaited return. After bidding farewell with a final hometown show at Union Transfer in early 2018, the band is reuniting nearly seven years later for a one-night-only performance at the same venue on February 15, 2025. Joining them on the bill are Full Body 2 and Halloween. Fans can expect an electrifying lineup, with original members Sean Miller (vocals/guitar), Anna Troxell (vocals/bass), and Patrick Troxell (drums) being joined by Andrew Clinco of Drab Majesty on second guitar. Tickets are available now.

For this special event, Creepoid will unveil Gutter Jeweler, a rare collection of lost demos from 2016. This release will be available in cassette format, along with an ultra-limited lathe set—only 50 copies—exclusively at the Union Transfer show. Each lathe set includes two records with four songs in total, making it a must-have for collectors and die-hard fans.

2025 also marks the 10th anniversary of ‘Cemetery Highrise Slum,’ the band’s third and final album, originally released via Collect Records just months before the label’s closure. After nearly a decade, the album is finally available on digital streaming platforms, and Philadelphia-based Abandon Everything Records is set to reissue it on vinyl. Fans can grab a copy at the show or order it by mail.

As a preview of what’s to come, Creepoid has shared the title track from Gutter Jeweler via an exclusive premiere at IDIOTEQ.

This track offers a reimagining of George Washington as a seedy, wood-toothed, wig-wearing recluse suffering an identity crisis while peddling questionable wares to passersby from down in the sewers,” says Miller.

With new music, a long-awaited reunion, and a special anniversary release, Creepoid is ready to make 2025 a year to remember.
