You guys been staying up on these singles? If not, start catching up now. Branden said at the beginning of this 52 Singles in 52 Weeks project that he wanted each single to be just that — a single. And that’s pretty much held true so far. Already a lot of gems among these 12.
Here’s another new twist to the project. Last week’s single (#11 homeiswhereyouare) through #21 is going to be a complete album (which means #12 up there is also track 2). So, keep up with the singles on Donewaiting the next 10 weeks and you’ll have a new Ghost Shirt record. All the tracks run together, and violinist Sam Kim is composing some orchestral breaks, too. Once all 10 tracks are released, it’s going to be mastered and digitally repackaged with artwork and such. The sound is a bit different than the Ghost Shirt you’re used to — as Branden says, it’s more “weird and noisy.”
AND… That’s actually Ghost Shirt’s second album, the first of which, Domestique, will be out on Anyway Records in May or June (with niiice artwork; cover above). You can now stream that album on the band’s Facebook fan page.
Hey, Joel…do you like Ghost Shirt?
i know, weird that i would write about bands that i like, right?
Nonono.
I was just wondering. Cos writing about a band 12 times is kind of like you’re still in decision-mode about them.
13 times would convince me that you really like them. That would do it.
Funny.
Perhaps you should re-read the name of this whole project? And the fact that DW is releasing the single each week? May help put all these confusing puzzle pieces together for you.
ladies and gentlemen, tristannus!
I thought this website was mostly about music and people who play music and people who like to listen to music and write about it and stuff like that. I like Ghost Shirt, too, at least 13 times.
