Returning with an emphatic blend of rock, alternative and hip hop – one of the most ambitious new artists of this summer C4RPOOL share their new album CREATURE MODE: VELOCITY.
The sophomore release builds upon their debut with even more ambition, delivering a bold mix of sounds that defy categorisation. This is an album that showcases C4RPOOL’s skill in blending diverse genres into a cohesive and dynamic listening experience.
Tracks like "Doom Impending" kick off with an explosive energy that feels both nostalgic and fresh, echoing the intensity of 2000s alternative rock while layering modern production techniques. Featuring verses from Renzo Starr, MICHAELTHEVILLAIN, and producer Kent Danger, the song plunges the listener into a thrilling blend of chaos and catharsis.
"Stank Face" takes a different approach, highlighting the group's versatility with its genre-bending production. Co-produced by Renzo Starr and Kent Danger, the track transitions from a high-energy opening to a more introspective, smooth finish, capped by a stunning outro from Loraiya. Each song on the album feels like a new chapter in C4RPOOL's ongoing musical evolution. This is something truly unique and we struggle to put into words the artists approach and innovation. Get on this one! - EARMILK
Continuously unpredictable and ever-evolving, C4RP00L's second album, 'Creature Mode: Velocity', fuses the past and present.
Rock, alternative, and electronic hip hop can be found across the eight-track record. Eclectic production will keep you on the edge of your seat, as C4RP00L switch between slightly off-kilter singing and rapping.
The album's lead singles 'Doom Impending' and 'Stank Face' set the tone for the project. On the former, contemporary alt-rock vocal trends get a douse of nostalgia with early 2000s alternative rock melody, with production by Kent Danger. On 'Stank Face', which features Arleena and Loraiya, begins with an ominous, cinematic melody, and morphs into a feeling of urgency.
'Creature Mode: Velocity' truly shows the range of C4RP00L's ability. A group completely unafraid of limits, it's an exhibition in embracing experimentation. - DMY
C4RP00L’s TANGA, the standout lead single from CREATURE MODE: VULNERABLE, is a bold statement of intent.
Anchored in a sample-based boom bap beat, the track pairs gritty, braggadocious verses from
MICHAELTHEVILLAIN and Renzo Starr with Kent Danger’s smooth, Pharrell-inspired hook, creating a captivating
balance between raw lyricism and melodic finesse. With its infectious energy and face-scrunching swagger, TANGA
solidifies C4RP00L as boundary-pushers in modern hip-hop, seamlessly merging classic influences with a fresh,
innovative edge.
An explosive anthem that demands attention and confirms their place in the genre’s evolution. - Last Day Deaf
