El-Creepo! is the debut solo record from singer songwriter Todd Edward Smith. Over the past decade Smith has been the voice and chief songwriter for Dog fashion Disco, The Alter Boys and current band Polkadot Cadaver. El-Creepo finds Smith taking a stylistic detour from his past efforts into more acoustic based mellow and sometimes hauntingly meditative musical passages. El-Creepo! is best experienced on mind altering substances while sitting in a dark room. Smith sings of all things sadistic morbid disturbing and unsettling (what's new?)! If you're looking for a record to drive around in your Iroc-1 with the t-tops off this is not the one!

Hoorah for Todd Smith!
This album was a grower, I wasn't too impressed on first listen, but I've really begun to dig it. My favorite tracks are "Wtich Hunt," "Hitman," "El-Creepo!", and "Hot Little Temper," (I LOVE those four, for the record) these are also the four most dissimilar songs, the rest are pretty chill acoustic pieces. I can't give this album five stars when thinking of Dog Fashion Disco's "Adultery," it just isn't that good. Also, almost of all of his songs are about murder in some way, and it's a little monotonous. That said, I also have to disagree with Eerie in that these are not his best lyrics, the whole of "Adultery" deserves that title, when his murder cliche's are put in a well thought out, controlled, conceptualized album- that is essential Smith. Ultimately though, I'm glad that he put this out because I was starving for another long strange trip to paradise.

I love this album
At first I was upset because when I went to listen to my favorite track, "Witch Hunt," it was actually "Bloody Mary." Once I figured out the mix up all was well. However, to avoid future issues for other people who buy the album I would suggest fixing the labeling error. Also, if you go to purchase a song separately it is also mislabeled. So if you buy "Witch Hunt" without previeweing it you will be surprised to have gotten "Bloody Mary."Other than that I love the album and after my physical copy got scratched beyond repair this was a nice replacement.

what more is ther to say
TODD IS A MUSICAL GOD. THE MIDAS OF SIN. This is a slower paced album that is to me the epitome of a listening album expertly crafted with a magnitude of unique instruments and exquisitely formed lyrics playing of dark histories.

The Cd starts off strong but the last few songs didn't really feel as great as the first half of the album
if youre a fan of Dog Fashion, Disco, or Polkadot Cadaver, Todd Smith's El Creepo is right up your alley. The Cd starts off strong but the last few songs didn't really feel as great as the first half of the album. Still love the cd.

Really Good
I bought Aloha first, so I kinda went in comparing them. Thats why it doesn't get 5 stars. I really like most of the songs. they're really nice sounding with off-color lyrics. I like it.

Fantastic
If you enjoy the work of Todd Smith (Dog Fashion Disco, Polkadot Cadaver) but are wanting a more laid back version, then this is the album for you. A little slower to get into but once your in, your hooked and wanting more.
