Scary Scary At Donau Festival

Now we have finished our 2 concerts here at the Donau Festival. The first gig was our first one since October, and being the old dogs we are, we have lost none of our charm and godliness.
Our second concert was with Finnbogi. It was aswell amazing.
We are heading back home, delayed a little by the Eyjafjallaj�kull eruption.

The song here is Scary Electric Tongue, which will be on our next record, and will feature Alan Vega from Suicide.

The Good Phase of Ghostigital

Is seen in this photo. This nice photo is actually of the crater in Eyjafjallaj�kull and is taken by the Landhelgisg�slan on 15th of April.

Next move of Ghostigital is doing two concerts in at the Donau Festival Krems in Austria. One with Finnbogi and the other one as core Ghostigital.

Also in May we will be performing in Istanbul at The Morning Line, as specially composed piece. This will be on the 22nd of May. The piece is called Cannibal In Tuxedo [internal-external]

We are going to the Donau Festival

We are going to the Donau Festival in the beginning of May. On the 6th we will be playing the festival on the same bill as m�m and dinosaur jr among other great artistst.

The day after we do a set with Finnbogi P�tursson. Yes this is magnificent. And we are looking forward to dusting out our gear.

Happy Birthday Nylo

The birthday song for Nylo, the Living Arts Museum, in Reykjavik, as performed on their Birthday tonight in Reykjavik.

The song is done by Ghostigital and Finnbogi P�tursson.

Loading the Agenda

For this year we might be going to Krems! in May 2010. We will be doing a concert at the Donau Festival. This we will confirm in the very near future.

We will go to Ethiopia for a musical excursion. Some tweets and ramblings can be expected from that next week.

Continued work on our 3rd studio album. Yes, work has commenced and we are hoping to finish in May.

Mr E work on the new Gorillaz album will not see the light of day. His contribution did not make the final cut. C'est la vie, and he ain't sorry at all. Just one of those things. The greatest song he was not on! :) Will he get interviews out of this, media coverage for NOT being on the record?

upwards and onwards!

A Quiet Afternoon is now out and loud

The concert we done with Finnbogi P�tursson on A Quiet Afternooon at the Icelandairwaves Festival 2009 is now out, but only as a digital release.
The concert is edited and remastered by Curver.

The concert was rather unique, but of course, due to the fact we used unlimited amount of smoke and noise.
It is avialble at the Smekkleysa online store.

The release date is 31. december 2009 for A Quiet Afternoon!

And We Returned With ...

This fragment from our Monkey Town concert on the 11 of November. Ofcourse we enjoyed it very much and especially to have Casper Electronics there in person. The room had 4 screens and Curver made visuals the night before our concert.

This is from our morning rehearsal of Intonarumori.

Expect the release of A Quiet Afternoon to hit the shelves very soon as a fantastic new release.

New York Here We Come

We are coming to New York for 2 performances next week...

Ghostigital and Casper Electronic
11. Nov 2009
20:30 - 22:00
Monkey Town
58 N 3rd St (btw. Kent & Wythe) - Williamsburg
Brooklyn, NY

Weird, noisey and surreal, Ghostigital, play their first NY concert in three years, then supporting The Melvins.
Frontman Einar �rn (of The Sugacubes / KUKL / Purrkur Pillnik) is widely known for his energetic performance and annoying dadaist vocals about everyday stuff. The cats are in town because they got commissioned by Performa 09 to play the Intonarumori noise-intoners instruments and decided to ad a "normal" concert to their visit here. Confusion is the message. Ghostigital are on Ipecac Recordings.

Casper Electronics
NY's circuit bending maestro Casper Electronics supports Ghostigital and plays his amazing instuments.
