Islands' album Creeper is a captivating and eclectic blend of indie rock and pop that showcases the band's versatility and creativity. The album features a range of styles and influences, from the upbeat and catchy "Kids Don't Know Shit" to the dreamy and introspective "We Were Alive."

One of the standout tracks on the album is "A Passionate Age," which features a driving rhythm and soaring vocals that build to an explosive chorus. The song is a powerful anthem that speaks to the angst and uncertainty of youth, and it captures the raw energy and emotion of the band's live performances.

Another highlight of Creeper is "Christmas Tree," a haunting and melancholic ballad that showcases Islands' ability to craft deeply emotional and evocative songs. The track features delicate guitar work and haunting vocals that create a sense of longing and nostalgia.
