Ghost Tropic

Vinyl LP

SONGSSubdued and somber, Ghost Tropic could make for the perfect soundtrack to a midnight walk along a deserted street. At its center is Jason Molina's voice, beautiful and frail, surrounded variously (though rarely at the same time) by sparse guitar, keyboards, and percussion. Everything moves as slowly as a three-legged dog, and anyone neither patient enough nor attuned to Molina's style of songcraft (imagine Neil Young doing very mellow gypsy folk music) might very well be put to sleep.
