Fleurs

VINYL FORMAT. Former Ghosts is the synth-pop inspired band formed and led by Freddy Ruppert (of This Song Is A Mess But So Am I), and consisting of Jamie Stewart (of Xiu Xiu) and Nika Roza (of Zola Jesus). The album sweeps through you with its sweet melodic side, sprinkling in sharp, chaotic, discordant moments - as if to punish you for having enjoyed yourself, for having let your guard down. Love is the most emotionally tangible embodiment of all things delicate; love is confusing and violent. The multitude of voices from these three unique musicians is both a reflection of and a creation of the themes of loss, confusion, and unexpected joy; they are sensations as disjointed, multi-vocal and diverse as the emotional experiences offered here.
