Ghost In The Water ‘Clean Sinks And Folded Laundry’ – Losing Today

June 4th, 2009

Excerpt: “a delicately caressing slice of willowy starry eyed pop that’s seductively primed and framed with a wonderfully hollowed weeping string arrangement and serenaded by a glassy cortege of twinkling celestial keys over which the hushed intimacy of Mandy’s forlorn and faraway wounded vocals trace their hurtful detail, sweetly sombre stuff that to these ears sounds not unlike some tear evoking sparsely drawn farewell embrace hatched between a stripped and frail Cranberries and Sundays.”

Ghost In The Water “Tooth” – Rift

March 26th, 2009

Excerpt: “quite beautiful. Underneath many of these songs you’re likely to hear daydream-like chimes dancing around like children on a playground… Message to female vocalist: Dear Mandy, your voice is really nice… really innocent and beautiful… Message to male vocalist: Dear Nathan, you’ve got a great voice too! You really do a really swell job at harmonizing… It’s really clear that the two of you work together nicely… Mandy’s vocals are so gentle and comforting that more than once I thought about taking a nap during it. Seriously, I did, and I would have gotten away with it too, if it weren’t for those pesky dynamics you two so wittingly make the most of.”

Ghost In The Water “Tooth” – Foxy Digitalis

January 22nd, 2009

Excerpt: “an engaging brew of sputtering electronic pop with touches of strings, keys, and acoustic guitar providing a serene melodic counterpoint. While the song arrangements are complex in places, the vocals, whether sung by each individually or in harmony, are delivered with a sense of earnestness and are steeped in matters of the heart. Some of Bjork’s work comes to mind here, both sonically and vocally, particularly when Mandy approaches her breathy expressionism on ‘A Nightmare’.”

Ghost In The Water “Tooth” – Cosmos Gaming

November 4th, 2008

Excerpt: “definitely a sign of great things to come from this group… listeners will be putting this album on repeat due to how addictive the instrumental work is… the group’s ability to merge two distinct styles of the same genre into one are sure to impress listeners and raise awareness of this band’s existence to quite a few people… Tooth showcases a group that already has some new and exciting ideas.”
