Album Description Out of the murky graveyards and misty catacombs of Long Beach, California, arise I Am Ghost. Possessing powerful, melodic songwriting chops far beyond their years, these 5 young musicians quickly came to the attention of Epitaph founder Brett Gurewitz after just 4 shows, theatrical, visually compelling shows that have become the talk of Long Beach's thriving post emo/indie rock scene. Intricate and captivating, I Am Ghost moves seamlessly through indie rock, metal and hardcore, while keeping melody at the forefront to tug at the souls of their fans; their female violin player/background singer gives the band a distinctive, haunting beauty. With bands like My Chemical Romance making a huge impact right now, I Am Ghost is a band to watch for in 2006! 9 tracks. 2005. Similarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsWe Are always searching for new bands MPD 360 | Sri Racha, Thailand | 05/30/2006 (4 out of 5 stars) "And I just happened to fall on a great one! This band has a lot of potential and lost sof talents. They are in the vein of My Chemical Romance (but better) and Thrice (but not as good). I thought the doube vocals similar to Lacuna Coil's where a man and a woman are singing are very effective since they can reach a high set of notes. The music is slightly progressive, a bit goth, and quite emo, this is against all expectations a very good mix! The one thing I found annoying though, were the frequent blanks with weird music in it, although these are becoming more common and fit very well in some music, this band sometimes overdoes it.
The pianos and violins blend in very well with the rest of the music and they are what gives it that goth touch. The guitarists are quite talented, and there is a short but sweet solo in kiss me like you wanted. The singer sings pretty well, not great, but he screams a bit too much in this music where there should be long sentimental notes. It also sounds like he is trying to copy Gerard Way from MCR in some songs with the great big gasps and dog barks. The girl sings very well and has a beautiful voice, she is a nice original addition to this band. Overall a very good album which I would rate 4.5 if I could" |
