Give up the Ghost

My neightbor Justin had showed this band a while ago. We agreed to exchange 3 CDs of music that we thought the other would like. I gave him all death metal, he gave me all hardcore. We're Down til We're Underground was one of those albums; the others I'll mention later.

Give Up the Ghost have this sporatic style that makes listening seem like a controlled demolition. At the beginning of the song when those drum fills seperate the "LOVE!" chants, I jump around my empty house like a player in the band. Usually I pretend my living room is the stage and my coffee table is a monitor I put my foot on to look cool. Hey, its not just because I want to, its because I know I should. You'll see what I mean when you hear it. Little parts like that change the song from sounding good to great in my opinion.

Like some other bands mentioned on the blog, this group is no longer together. They wrote some really good tunes that will last forever and the song American Love is one of them. Take a listen, let me know what you think.
