Creeper

Formed in Southampton, United Kingdom, in 2014, Creeper crafts a brand of rock that blends melodic punk, gothic influences and a strong sense of theatricality. Centered on singer Will Gould and guitarist Ian Miles, the band first made its mark on the British alternative scene with a string of EPs — 'Creeper' (2014), 'The Callous Heart' (2015) and 'The Stranger' (2016) — before releasing its debut album, 'Eternity, in Your Arms', in 2017. That record established a universe of recurring characters, positioned between punk rock, emo and glam touches, which was expanded on 'Sex, Death & the Infinite Void' (2020), a record leaning toward dramatic rock and dark ballads. With 'Sanguivore' (2023), Creeper further intensified the conceptual and cinematic aspects of their songwriting, combining vampiric imagery, pop choruses and guitars rooted in classic hard rock. Their live shows extend this narrative approach through costumes, set design and strong interaction with the rock and punk audience.
