listen to Left For Dead by The Ghost Of A Thousand, as a preview to this record
The Ghost Of A Thousand (myspace) was a post-hardcore band that probably paid close attention to bands like Refused ,The Bronx or the garage punk/rock (think early The Hives) genre, with highly energetic rock’n roll groove seeping from every song. The shouted vocals sound on the verge of breaking down and add to the raw energy pumping up any listener. You can just imagine ballroom dancing to the catchy rythms, as well as jumping on a pile-on to scream along with the lyrics. A very innovative take that blends in with a lot of (otherwise stale) hardcore/punk variants. too hard to be just punk-rock, but too versatile to be just hardcore.
