Ghost Wave – Ghost Wave EP
Kiwi fourtet Ghost Wave not only dropped one of our favourite songs this year , Hippy (Gabba Gabba hey…this sounds familiar haha), but have a gnarly lil banger of an eponymous EP on their paws. This EP was recently rlsd and even more recently made it to our desk. This band is currently working on getting a full release together which should be the whip.
Ghost Wave, Ghost Wave, is seven songs in the key of awesome. It is shoegazey, garagey, psychey and whatever tag you want to throw on it.This is a tight, cohesive band that can jam. The track Sunsetter might be the best of breed all around , but Hippy kills it two times and I am lately partial to the psyched out driving jangle of On A Breeze ..tough call! Bottom line these lads are mad talented and unless they really bollocks up the LP it should be one of the better things you hear whatever year it sees the light of day. We dropped Hippy upon a mix yesterday go here to..uh hear haha and spin some of Auckland’s finest below!
