RATING: 4.5 out of 5
Ghostland Observatory’s notoriously infectious live energy might not have been so perfectly captured on record by a less capable producer, but multi-instrumentalist Thomas Turner has packed this record with more banging beats and raw sexual energy than any record so far this year. Ghostland Observatory’s debut LP delete.delete.i.eat.meat… powers through a landscape of effects-laden vocals, warm synths, crunching drums, and ethereal guitars. The frantic pacing and variety of the album make selecting a standout track difficult, but “Shoot ‘Em Down” is one song that certainly must not be missed. Singer/guitarist Aaron Behrens purrs the opening chorus over an isolated, slowly bouncing bass line, breaking into the screaming chorus in a transition that carries the same punch listen after listen.
