G9 Interviews Creature Feature

December 4th, 2008 | By NiNi

G9’s posted a great interview with Curtis of Creature Feature at FEARnet.com’s music blog. One of my favorite excerpts:

G9: Speaking of gear… I keep lots of weird toys in my recording studio for inspiration, monsters and robots and stuff. Do you guys do that too, or am I just a big dork?

Curtis: [Laughs] if you’re a dork, then I guess we are too. I’m a huge collector of ‘things,’ especially vintage film posters, so we have some of those framed around our studio, along with some action figures, toy dinosaurs, Halloween decorations, all the amazing fan art we get on tour, and a few actual move props I’ve collected over the years. I also have an extensive collection of movies on Beta, VHS, Laserdisc and DVD, so we also take frequent breaks to watch horror movies. Some people call that “putting off work’, but we like to call it ‘research’. I think having the stuff that inspires you around you at all times when you’re working creatively is a must… it just seems to open up those pathways so strange creations can creep in.
