The artists formerly known as The Ghosts..

Another musical post....Yes I know, next time I'll bring you a post that has nothing to do with music.. promise. And I just want to mention that we're happy that the blog is getting a lot of hits. Keep coming back, this is just starting. Thanks for the support!

One of the best Indie labels out there is Modular Records, with bands like Van She, The Whitest Boy Alive, Soulwax, Cut Copy, The Presets, just to mention a few, they keep bringing more talent to us. Their new band is called "Ghostwood".




Formed in Sydney, Australia in 2006, they quickly established themselves on the Sydney Indie scene, and signed to Modular for 1 EP in late 2006. Ghostwood's first release is their eponymous EP, with tracks Red Version, Blue Version, Ghost, Run and Pencils. The single Red Version was iTunes single of the week in late August 2006.

They've toured with Maximo Park and the Silversun Pickups. These lads are pretty young, but they have a very mature and very evolved sound, or they just sound very clean and tight. There is some "the Cure" influence in their sound, or like my girlfriend likes to say: "morbid sound" or "Mew in depression". So if you're into that, check them out, you might like them.

Here is the video of their "Red Version" single I hope you like it. Enjoy!
