The Status Quo Song - The New Creation

Vancouver, British Columbia's all-but-forgotten Jesus "outsider" trio, the New Creation was born in 1970 when Chris Towers, an unknown guitarist from Vancouver, decided to form a Christian rock-pop group with Lorna Towers as lead singer and Janet Tiessen on drums. Scared by reports of the hippie excesses of the Manson/Altamont era, Lorna Towers wrote doom-laden, apocalyptic lyrics for the New Creation's aptly titled album, Troubled. The band was unpolished, yet somehow captured a unique lo-fi sound comparable to a hybrid of the Velvet Underground and the Shaggs.
