Cherry Glazerr released their explosive full-length album "Apocalipstick" on Inauguration Day in 2017.

You might think the two tumultuous years since would have driven the band toward even more explicitly topical commentary.

But as singer/guitarist/founder Clementine Creevy began writing the first of some thirty songs that would make up the new "Stuffed & Ready", she found unexpected inspiration by turning inward.

That meant leading her band somewhere new and writing songs that would reveal aspects of herself she realized she'd once concealed.

"Apocalipstick" sizzled with Creevy's confidence, vision and fiercely idiosyncratic personality.

"Stuffed & Ready" announces Creevy as a songwriter newly tempered and strengthened by coming to terms with her own uncertainty confusion and anger.

It's her go-for-broke honesty that gives "Stuffed & Ready" its power and gravity. Now a three-piece with drummer Tabor Allen and bassist Devin O'Brien, synth player Sasami Ashworth has moved on to her own solo work.

Again with Producer Carlos de la Garza, who co-produced "Apocalipstick", for six full months, they'd be at the studio by 9:01am, ready to write and record all day and sometimes into the night.

She made the album the same way, eliminating anything that couldn't answer a single simple question: is this really me? It was exhausting, but somehow joyful, too, and the result is Cherry Glazerr's most daring and intimate music yet.

"Stuffed & Ready" is a raw and resonant listen and Creevy has never sounded more powerful.
