Electro with soul...,
By
This review is from: Black Ghosts (Audio CD)
The Black Ghosts are a British Electro duo, and if you like LCD Soundsystem or Calvin Harris, chances are you'll like this."Any way you choose to give it" and "I want nothing" are bouncy dance songs with buzzing 80s sounding synths, while "It's your touch" is more chilled with an almost Jazzy/ambient vibe. "Repetition kills you" is a droning synth dance number (with guest vocals by Damon Albarn), while the groovy "Until it comes again" has intermittent bursts of guitar giving it a rock edge. Giving a different feel is the almost Simon & Garfunkel-sounding acoustic ballad "Full moon" (with lovely ethereal harmonies). Other standouts are the piano driven groovy number "Something new", the ballad "Don't cry", the bouncy "Face", and the sparse despondent sounding "Some way through this" with slowed down beats and synth strings pushed to the fore, giving a haunting R&B/Techno feel (much like something Justin Timberlake/Timbaland would do). Brilliant!! Electro with soul!!

By Adam Selene (Nanuet, New York) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Black Ghosts (Audio CD)
Fans of catchy electro (as the title says) rejoice you have another album to add to the collection. If you like LCD Soundsystem, Digitalism, Simian Mobile Disco, Felix Da Housecat and others; you will love this album. Best song: Repetition Kills You.

The wait is finally over - Black Ghosts sublime electro/rock debut is here! Simian V.2,
By
This review is from: Black Ghosts (Audio CD)
After two years of occasional underground club singles, the long wait is over - and the BLACK GHOSTS' sublime, stunning debut is finally out in the U.S. - featuring all the club hits like FACE, SOMETHING NEW, and more. If you like a perfectly pitched sonic mix of electro, rock, pop, and dance, you came to the right place. With vocals from SIMIAN's ex-lead singer, SIMON LORD, this is really the "third" Simian album, but why quibble with perfection? WE ARE YOUR FRIENDS, indeed.
