RxGhost’s “Candles:” A Defiant Anthem Against a Rigged System ( Moosic Entertainment )
Musically, “Candles” is a tour de force. The passionate vocals convey a deep sense of urgency, cutting through the dreamy haze of ambient guitars that swirl and build, creating a soundscape that feels both expansive and intimate. The rhythm section deserves special mention for its ability to ground the track, providing a steady pulse that drives the song forward, even as the guitars and vocals soar.
In “Candles,” RxGhost has crafted a powerful anthem for our times—one that resonates with anyone feeling the weight of a broken system but still holding onto the hope of creating something beautiful in the midst of it all.
A sold-out RecordBar showed up to bask in the glow of Shiner, RxGhost, & Lafayette. ( Too Much Rock )
Describing the quintet's sound is a lofty undertaking. Elements of brit pop and shoegaze combine with off-kilter alt rock to create songs that are both heady and heartfelt. Big hooks dominate the songs and seem simplistic from a distance, but like a Paul Signac painting, step a bit closer and you see RxGhost's art is actually the culmination of a million little choices. The band features four guitars, each working in a different register and leaving space for the next. This allowed songs to feel big without being oppressive. Even when the band opted for density (in a song like "Over and Over the Same Things"), the result was a comforting weighted blanket, not a noise rock pummeling. If there were a band you needed to hear to understand, this would be it. I prescribe listening to the band's just-released album Scaffolding on vinyl to feel all that analog glow, and then catching the act live 1-2 times a month until hooked.
