THE GHOST IS DANCING
The Ghost is Dancing
Sonic Unyon
· A small EP big on style – band proves that Canada still rocks.
A curious band with a curious sound, combining the jangling guitars and kinetic energy of Hot Hot Heat with the droning cacophony of The Arcade Fire. "People," with its chorus invokes celestial bodies, as languid trumpets add a touch of Neutral Milk Hotel to a wide-eyed sound brimming with cosmic innocence. These five songs, released earlier this year, caught the attention of the fine folk at Sonic Unyon Records. Highly infectious, The Ghost is Dancing hearken back to an earlier garage rock era. A lot is riding on the release of their first full-length this January, so catch them now to get a headstart on all the fuss. Are they merely riding the wave of current Canadian indie-rock success or is there enough magic up their sleeves to make a go of it?
