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!

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best releases of 2006, December 23, 2006

By	Amanda Huffman "daylightdancer89" (North Carolina) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I Am Ghost is probably one of the most underrated bands out there today. It's a pity, because good music is what the industry needs these days. With their debut album, I Am Ghost shows that they are quite unique compared to the large number of other emo/punk bands out there. Stand out tracks are "Killer Likes Candy," "Pretty People Never Lie, Vampires Never Really Die," "This Is Home," and "Beyond the Hourglass." Every song is 5 star, but these, especially "This Is Home" are the best of the best. I like the direction they're going in, and look forward to more music from them.

I'd recommend this band for anyone who likes My Chemical Romance, AFI, Lacuna Coil, Evanescence or HIM.
