Stabbing Westward : Chasing Ghosts - CD
Ref: 23015
In 6-panel Digipak ! In 2022 German label Brilljant Records released the comeback album by US-American Alternative/Industrial-Band Stabbing Westward. But no exports ever did place. Stabbing Westward are back with their 5th studio album – their first since 2001!!! To recreate that original chemistry, the band recruited the legendary producer John Fryer, whose production credits include Depeche Mode, Nine Inch Nails, 4AD, Cocteau Twins, and Love and Rockets. He originally worked with Stabbing Westward on their best-selling early releases Ungod (1994) and Wither Blister Burn + Peel (1996). The current lineup includes 4 of the original band-members: Carlton Bost (guitars/programming), Bobby Amaro (drums), Walter Flakus (keyboards) and lead singer Christopher Hall. "It seems like we've been working on this album for a long time, trying to get it just right. With the help of John Fryer and COP International, everything fell into place. We are so excited for the world to finally hear the album", says Flakus. And Christopher adds: "It's great to be back and working with John Fryer and Tom Baker (Mastering legend) again was awesome and felt like making a pure old-school Stabbing Westward album. I was so excited to have the opportunity to go back to the very roots of SW by working with John again. John really helped us develop our sound on our first album and then help us take a huge leap forward with our second album. Even though this is our 5th full-length album, after such a long break it feels like a new beginning and it's very cool to have John at the helm once again." The album is featuring artwork by David Seidman, an artist known for his ethereal and surrealistic imagery Tracks : 01 I am nothing 02 Damaged Goods 03 Cold 04 Push 05 Wasteland 06 Control Z 07 Crawl 08 Dead & Gone 09 Ghost 10 The End
