The long-delayed full-length debut by Liverpool-based producer GhostChant sounds appropriately haunted, with echo-shrouded vocals and ominous synth-strings and pianos, along with crackling noises and rain sounds. Add in snapping U.K. garage beats, and it's not hard to think of Burial while listening to this guy's music, but he seems to have more of a pop slant to his work, cutting down a bit on the abstract elements and putting vocals closer to the center. The album's first few tracks use disembodied vocal samples, and much of the remainder features guest vocalists, including singers FiFi Rong and Anthony Kastelanides as well as American rapper SpaceGhostPurrp. GhostChant's tracks typically have a dejected feel to them, and seem to express a disconnect or alienation from club culture, as well as society as a whole. Even the songs with lyrics that reference doing drugs and having sex (such as "Habituary") seem dazed and disaffected, rather than reveling in or celebrating those activities. Sophia Ben-Yousef's vocals on "Siren's Song" bring to mind Everything But the Girl's Tracey Thorn, and the song has a similarly wistful quality to it. The album's constant sense of longing and desperation can make it a heavy listen, but GhostChant is adept at crafting rich, tense atmospheres and backing them up with crisp, knocking beats, resulting in relatably sad late-night odes.
