crème de la creem
Crushed, Home Front, Avilda, Warmduscher


Crème de la CREEM is supposed to be a bunch of cool young bands, but for this issue we initially let our corporate sponsors do the deep dive in the name of synergy and conserving bandwidth. Now, we all know that corporations will always have great taste when it comes to a positive customer experience, knowing the buyer’s journey, and working toward consumer alignment. But after regrouping, we decided that maybe we should pivot, recalibrating to circle back into a huddle on OUR favorites—you know, for consistency’s sake and the fact that it is, after all, our core competency. And though we started to feel that we were spinning our wheels, we decided in solidarity with our partners to forge ahead as per our initial plan, using our leverage to hoist up creative thought leaders. So in the interest of moving the needle, here lie some of the next generation of human capital that, for the record, have nothing to do with defense contracting, shoe manufacturing, or pain medications. These robust young disrupters are true change agents who think outside the box, avoid all low-hanging fruit, and set the benchmarks for quality entertainment.
