Ghost - Hazy Paradise




Ghost has honestly been my favourite trip out and chill out band for years. After hearing the weird champer popsike that was "Snuffbox Immanence" and their cover of the Rolling Stones' "Live With Me" I was immediately hooked. This song brings out their pop sensibilities in the form of a gem throughout an acid drenched free jazz trip. Don't get me wrong, the rest of "Hypnotic Underworld" is amazing, but this song sort of brings you some seriously Sid Barrett Era Pink Floyd styled jam, with some amazing Michio Kurihara guitar playing, definitely to rival that of David Gilmour. Top it off with Ghost standard use of the harpsichord, and you've got "Hazy Paradise."

From the 2007 Album "Hypnotic Underworld"
