The Lonely Martian

Tash must've shit all kinds of bricks when Ghost Stories was announced as the title! :lol:

Somebody mentioned in another thread that Ghost Stories may be a love story about someone who has died. Maybe they're dressed in black as in the attire of a funeral?

Don't know about you guys, but I honestly don't see any tracks on the album being heavy or "exploding" like they do on Mylo or any previous albums. It just doesn't seem to be the right thing to do with the Ghost Stories concept and all. :/

Hospice Part II? :P

Who still censors the word "sex" anymore? :lol:

But they were just Live at Glastonbury tracks weren't they?

That's exactly what i was trying to say earlier! :lol:

I just don't know what goes on in these artworks anymore. There's a raindeer with a Double Bass, an angel holding a coathanger, what seems to be a diagram of a vagina, a tree knocking at a door, a door with DNA flowing out of it and a bicycle with a birdhouse on it! My head hurts SO BAD.

I'm pretty hopeful the three tracks will be new songs as well. If that doesn't happen, an EP later in the year will become more probable.

I don't know what's so unsatisfying about a nine track album. It can easily be a 45 minute album with 5-minute tracks! Unless 45 minutes is not enough for you guys! :lol:

Yeah, they're all wearing black. That's a common wardrobe theme for sure.

Yep. And the other two tracks will be up on their respective release dates as well.

Chris' depiction of a ghost is pretty cute! :P

Nah, just haven't seen it being discussed before until now. Also, apart from having the name of a color in the title, why is it a thing, exactly?

German CD is probably as far as we can expect to go nowadays in terms of a single, but hey, Record Store Day's next month! "Magic" vinyl for RSD maybe?

Yeah, I've never heard of "color songs" before. probably not that important! :lol:

Haunted ghosts and demons? I'm in! :laugh3:

It'll be really funny if it turns out none of our theories are correct! :lol:

Thank you for sharing! The artist behind these artworks has really outdone herself!

Considering that these same three tracks are the only tracks on the album with a placeholder track time (4:45, to be exact), it's certain they'll be up on iTunes as well.

Good thing they didn't invent another font this time around! I have to admit, the fan-made Every Truetype is a Wisefont was a bit annoying with the gaps between certain characters and whatnot.

Booklets should only be for liner notes and the occasional awesome artwork! But yeah; a guy like me likes to know who worked on the album and on which tracks. Don't care much for lyrics, since I usually can understand lyrics pretty well, and yeah, like the guy above me said, it's no use wasting paper when you can post lyrics online!

Don't know why it's surprising that the album isn't eponymous. Albums and EPs don't have to be named after tracks, you know! :P
