About Me

"Few bands can rightfully claim to be an integral piece of music’s ever-evolving evolutionary puzzle, but even Charles Darwin can’t ignore the pending influence of Arizona’s GHOSTLIFE. With swirling, ambient guitar textures, rocking drums, and emo-laiden vocal shrieks, this experimental quintet is poised to emerge as the next musical “missing link” in the perpetual growth and evolution of rock music. GHOSTLIFE combines influences from such groups as The Cure, Radiohead, Deftones, Tool, A Perfect Circle, Codeseven, Far, and Willhaven along with their own mathematical philosophy on music and the universe to create unforgettable songs within the experimental rock idiom. With opening credits including Vendetta Red, Depswa, Mardo, Vast, and One Block Radius, GHOSTLIFE has already had a taste of the national spotlight and looks forward to a busy tour schedule this spring." (Brandon Martin: Hitt Music Group)...................................................... ............................................................ .............................. "It's pretty goddamn rare that when I get a random local CD with only my name printed on a white slip-sleeve and a flyer for an upcoming show in it that the band's any good. Actually, sometimes it's rare that the disc will get more than thirty seconds of playing time, especially if I haven't heard of the band before. But there are always exceptions to the rule.""I received exactly what I described above at the New Times office, apparently dropped off there because it wasn't in an envelope. Two songs, a preview of an upcoming EP, are all that were on there. The band is called Ghostlife, and out of boredom my brother and I popped it into his car's CD player, and were subsequently (and surprisingly) impressed (my brother is a sound engineer, so I value his opinion professionally). It's definitely got some Cure going on in there, as well as some Radiohead influences, but not so much that it sounds overly derivative. And the drummer kicks ass." ( Brendan Joel Kelley: New Times)
