Search - I Am Ghost :: Those We Leave Behind

Fine if you like hard emo.

"If you, like I, are a huge fan of their previous work this album will disappoint. Gone are the melodic counter harmonies from the enchanting voice and violin of Kerith Telestai. Not only has she left I AM GHOST, but the band choose not to replace her. On its own this is a fine album for those that like hardcore emo. If you expect this to be like their previous melodic goth rock, well-it most certainly is not."

Quite disappointing

"ive been a ghost fan since the beginning and quite frankly this album is garbage. "Lovers Reqiuem" had parts that i just had to turn up and had to listen to repeatedly. "Those we leave" has none of that and is simply annoying to listen to. I tried like hell to love it but cringed through the entire album. If i had to put my finger on it, id say the chick leaving the band killed it. Her vocals and lyrics added soul to the music and now its just void. If you dont have "lovers reqiuem" go buy it immediately, but leave this one sitting on the shelf."

A M A Z I N G sophomore effort!

"Soaring melodies, dark lyrics, blazing guitar... simply the best CD I've bought in a long time."
