That Ghost


Bastardingly young Ryan Schmale takes DIY to a land of sunny sun sun dark surburbia trippin' home to the haunted house in his one man effort, That Ghost. 'Open Windows' especially sounds like a reflection on a perfect date, with images of summer and freaking out on the newly-cut grass for hours. He has a gift for harmony without any particular sentimentality - just honest polaroids of memorable times. 'Going Out When It's Warm at Night' is a particular french fancy of nice musical space, with cool, momentary vibes of Deerhoof's 'Dinner for Two' and wine bottles with candles in. 'Never Have Fun' is a particular staple of tightly shambolic groove smash on the decent drums and hot school hall guitar tones. One to drink orange squash thru a straw to.
