| I Am Ghost have to be one of the best new bands and this debut has to be one of the best and underrated.
You start off with a full orchestra transporting you to some meuseum or elevator (Either works). After that the first stomp off of the drums and guitars bring you back to reality on 'Our Friend Lazarus Sleeps' with Steve Juliano spitting out lyrics like there's no tomorrow. Then onto the brilliant 'Killer Like Candy' which could be the only song that could haunt the Royal Albert Hall one night and rock out Download Festival the next. A few tracks on and the wildly operatic Title Track comes into play and you can't help miming a violin or singing along even if you've never heard this song before! Then comes the song that could be a screenplay to a vampire movie 'We Are Always Searching' that almost tells you a story about a girl that's been abducted. The next 2 tracks (A Ship of Pills and Needed Things, The Denouement(Den-oo-ment)) are forgettable compared to the ones before. But then appears the heavy, Top-Of-The-Pops-esque rock ballad 'This is Home' that makes you forget that you slept through the previous two tracks. Addmittedly the album dosn't have a decent ending. Perhaps is 'Beyond the Hourglass' swapped places with 'This is Home' then the album would be more or less perfected. In contrast, this is a great album! | ||
