Ghost On TV - "Drained"

The latest from Ghost On TV doesn't sound like it's from a Boston based artist, which is one of the things we love about it. "Drained" lands somewhere between the giant electronica hits of the late 90's and trip hop. It grooves just a little too hard to be trip hop. If you were around thirty years ago, "Drained" is going to give you flashbacks to the music mostly coming out of England like Lionrock, Faithless, and others you all but forgot. It's particularly reminding me of "Battleflag" by Lo-Fi Allstars. Comparisons aside, Ghost On TV's latest is more charmingly lo-fi than these other artists, with just enough of a rock base to not be going full on electronic music.

Paul Depasquale (aka Ghost On TV) says of his latest single:

“‘Drained’ is about being exhausted from all the expectations we put on ourselves, as well as the expectations easily felt by society. And it is questionable how society gets placed with such a burden in the first place. It’s hard to not point the finger at the government, politics, corporations, and media that demand so much of our energy to keep up with the status quo. It’s the hamster wheel sort of life."

You can listen to "Drained" below. Mister Silence is due out February 21 on Swoom Records. For more on Ghost On TV, check out the artist on Instagram and Facebook.

  1. BOOST YOUR CREDIT SCORE FOR A BRIGHTER FINANCIAL FUTURE
    My wife and I were trying to purchase a house after we gave birth to twins. But due to our bad credit score it was not approved. My score was 501, her's was 545. They use the higher of the two scores, so we decided to work on her FICO score. Thanks to Janine who referred me to Synack Hack and their contact details are synackhack{@}tech{-}center{.}com
    They helped remove debt from both credit report, they now appear as paid, the most amazing part is that my FICO score has been raised from 545 to 817 across the three credit bureaus. We were able to buy the house in Sydney and now raising our beautiful children there. Thank you Synack you made all this possible.
