Ghost Spirit is an American DIY screamo band from Los Angeles, California, consisting of vocalist Alex Bigman, guitarists Niko Zaglaras & Nikolas Soelter, bassist Evan Henkel and drummer Taylor Jewell. There is something about this screamo outfit that will instantly grab you. Perhaps it’s their lo-fi DIY sound, their tangible crunch and fuzz reminiscent of the bands losing their minds at local basement shows that most music fans grew up on. Or maybe it’s the way they mix parts of black metal’s tremolo-picked franticness and hardcore’s insistence into their vulnerable and off-kilter songs. Whatever the reason, the band — featuring members of punk acts like Lord Snow, Nuvuloscura, and Elle, as well as former members of Fight Fair and Calculator — just pop to the ear, crackling with both an honesty and a darkness that fans of all forms of sincere, tortured music fans will recognize and appreciate. The band, having just come off of a West Coast tour with The Fall Of Troy, is now preparing to drop the follow-up to their 2017 self-titled debut. Their sophomore LP, Hourglass, immerses itself in Ghost Spirit’s unique brand of deep, despondent darkness. It includes members of Seeing Means More, Fight Fair, Lord Snow, and Nuvolascura. Members: Alex Bigman - vocals Niko Zaglaras - guitar Nikolas Soelter - guitar Evan Herkel - bass Taylor Jewell - drums
