New Song From I Am Ghost

Posted by pixie | Filed under Uncategorized

Considering everything I have been dealing with lately, I take my happiness where I can get it. In this case, it’s in the form of a new song from I Am Ghost on myspace. It’s called “Bone Garden,” and makes me not want to wait until October for the whole album, because this is awesome. I think this will probably take the award for 2008 “Album of the Year” [Jamies Elsewhere is still holding strong at #1 at this point] if this is indicative of what we can expect from the whole album, which will be titled Those We Leave Behind.

The band’s MySpace has also been revamped with a ton of European tour dates, for some reason or another. It looks like after the current West Coast run, there’s nothing happening in the US until next year. Strange… but maybe they do better over there. A lot of bands do, unfortunately. [Well, unfortunately for me, since I like seeing live bands.]

And as for this new photo of them? I just want to touch them all. A lot. Damn. Those are some nice-looking boys. Obviously, music is the most important thing to me, but if the visuals are nice as well, I’m certainly not going to complain.

I Am Ghost Announces Summer Tour

Posted by pixie | Filed under Uncategorized

If you live on the West coast or the South, you’re set. If you don’t, you’re not. Yes, this means I am having massive amounts of angst over not being able to see them and likely hear the new songs any time soon, but I am sure videos will get out there to hold me over until they get their butts to the East coast.

The band is currently in Baltimore, MD recording the new album, due this October. It looks like they’ll be hitting the touring circuit as soon as they’re done with the recording. They’re taking a bunch of different bands with them on different dates, but Eyes Set to Kill will be doing the whole tour with them.

If you’re lucky enough to get to go to one of the dates, do let me know how it went. This is one of my favorite bands — both musically and as people. I’ve never seen a band quite as interested in, and as cool with, their fans as these guys are.

Here’s hoping this is the year they break big, because they deserve it.
