Glass Ghost - Idol Omen

Glass Ghost

Had they been birthed 33 years ago, Glass Ghost could’ve scored Eraserhead. Their listless, dreamlike beats are ineffably haunting, coaxing the listener into a postindustrial wasteland ruled by rusted machinery. There is, however a Masochistic beauty to be found in the audio horror of the Brooklyn duo. The inverted vocals of Eliot Krimsky violently gasp for air, as if trapped in the nightmarish world you had always hoped for only to reach the promised land and yearn for a single sign of life. Synthesizers have never sounded so daunting and undanceable. – Izzy Cihak
