Editorial Reviews

Product Description
A full-length debut so ambitious and assured, it seems the work of a much more established band. From the baroque Latin chorus that opens the CD to the punishing guitar overdrive of the first video/single "Pretty People Never Lie - Vampires Really Never Die", "Lovers' Requiem will take fans of the first EP's ("We Are Always Searching") haunting melodicism to new symphonic heights. For fans of My Chemical Romance, AFI.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must have in any good CD collection, October 30, 2006

By	Mary Ann F. (Burbank, CA) - See all my reviews

This is the band to watch for in 2007. Their newest release will draw you in from the first note all the way to the very end and will have you coming back for more. The blending of the instruments complimented by the violin is genius. Steve has a powerful voice, with Kerith's soothing tone brings it all together nicely. If you are a fan of A.F.I., HIM, Nightwish or Lacuna Coil then you will definately love I Am Ghost.

4.0 out of 5 stars When From First To Last and Escape The Fate combines.... , February 9, 2007

A Kid's Review

From First To Last and Escape The Fate are both dark music, asnd when combines, it'll make music that is a lot darker and more depressing than ever! I Am Ghost sometimes sounds like Aiden but better vocals and better instruments. And who says that Kerith is a better singer than Steve?! Hell no! Steve is a terrific singer! Everybody shouldtry to listen to this band.

Tracks I love:

"Our Friend Lazarus Sleeps" 11/10- This song had a nice beginning, great chorus and had catchy guitars/opera part around the middle. And watch their music video!

"Killer Likes Candy" 10/10- This had a nice beginning and an addicting chorus for me. But this does have a weird song title.

"Dark Carnival Of The Imaculate" 11/10- A nice beginning, a kick-a**, addicting chorus! Love it!

"Lover's Requiem" 10/10- This song started off with some drumming and had such beautiful chorus, loved how Kerith sang there... but not as good as Steve.

"Ship Of Pills And Needed Things" 12/10- This had a little trumpet in the beginning, this song definetly had the speed and the singing. This is the best of all!!

Those are all the tracks that i think mare the best! "Crossing The River Styx" was like an intro, "The Denouement" was useless, and I don't understand why "This Is Home" is getting really famous of this band?! What's so good about it? But still.... this is a good album! GET THIS!!! And check out the band Escape The Fate!

A Kid's Review

this album is amazing, simply the best CD out of my entire CD collection! And who says that Kerith is a better singer than Steve?!? Hell no! Steve has the best vocals! His singing is so creepy and fast. "Dark Carnival Of The Immaculate", "Our Friend Lazarus Sleeps", and "Ship of Pills And Needed Things" are the best (and I mean BEST) tracks in this kick-a** album! From First To Last and Escape The Fate are both emo and dark music, so when they combine.... it creates music a lot darker.

"Our Friend Lazarus Sleeps" 10/10- A nice beginning, it had a very catchy guitars with opera part around the middle. And nice music video too.

"Killer Likes Candy" 10/10- A weird song title but nice beginning, but nice chorus and fun to listen.

"Dark Carnival Of The Immaculate" 12/10- A great, creepy beginning! Steve sang perfectly in this song, mostly at the chorus! One of my favorites!

"Pretty People Never Lie, Vampires Really Never Die" 9/10- An okay song, nothing special. It can get a little boring in some parts.

"Of Masques And Martyrs" 10/10- Nice beginning, it had a really beautiful chorus. Nothing else special.

"Lover's Requiem" 11/10- A little drumming part in the beginning, but the chorus was well-done. I like how Kerith sings in the chorus, but not as good as Steve!

"Ship of Pills And Needed Pills" 12/10- A creepy, sick song!!! This definetly had the speed and the hype! I really like the lyrics.

This album is the best of 2006! I didn't write a comment about other songs because I didn't know what to say about those songs. I don't know why a lot of people have never heard this band?! GET THIS!!! And check out the band Escape The Fate!
