Goth-punkers I Am Ghost may be the only hardcore band in recent memory to have a full-time violinist and guest-starring vocal choir, but that's their way: shattering expectations along with eardrums. For their second album, the Long Beach band has written an epic rock opera, boldly tackling Grand Guignol themes in songs like the cathartic "Our Friend Lazarus," and the prog-rockin' "Pretty People Never Lie, Vampires Never Die."

Professional Reviews

Q (p.136) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[T]he band's sound is impressively cinematic, building from lush choral passages to frenetic, breakneck riffing."

Kerrang (Magazine) (p.48) - "Chugging guitars and whipcrack drums are all present in abundance and there's raw-throated fury aplenty."
