GHOSTIGITAL ANNOUNCES NEW EP ‘DON’T PUSH ME’ TO BE RELEASED ON INTERNATIONAL RECORD STORE DAY 21ST APRIL

“What a pleasant note they play them guys in Ghostigital he said and sneezed…”

Six full years after bombarding the world with their second album; the teutonic and brilliantly chaotic In Cod We Trust, Ghostigital are well and truly back. Comprised of “art of noise” blood brothers, Einar Örn Benediktsson and Curver Thoroddsen, the time has been well spent in various sonically challenging projects but first and foremost recording their third album, Division of Culture & Tourism, which will be released on the 21st of April 2012. Here, the dynamic duo take their genre-bending, visionary noise-maelstrom to yet another level, assisted by a potpourri of “cultural tourists” including rappers (Dälek, Sensational), guitar gods (King Buzzo from noise-rock legends Melvins), art punks (David Byrne , Alan Vega from seminal 70’s band Suicide) an alt-rock sideman extraordinaire (Nick Zinner from The Yeah Yeah Yeahs) and a brit pop maestro (Damon Albarn).

A teaser from the album will be released on 12” format on International Record Store Day on the 21st of April. Einar’s surrealistic poetry flows relentlessly on the title track, with just the right amount of helping from cult rapper Sensational and New York guitarslinger Zinner. As a bonus we get another LP track. “Scary Scary”, touched by the hand of Vega, an outtake (“Elastic Tongue”) and a remix of the title track by the mighty Gluteus Maximus

As the man said: “Poetry and Spoken Word is ok. Melody and Harmony are for TV talent shows, therefore optional.”
