Ghost Patterns

Ghost Patterns are a psychedelic shoegaze band from London. They have shared stages with the likes of Helicon, Cult Of Dom Keller, Daiistar, Magic Shoppe, New Candys, Ceremony East Coast, Tremours, The Dharma Chain and most recently Pink Breath Of Heaven, which has seen them garner further support across the modern psych and shoegaze communities. Inspired by 60's psychedelia, the late 70’s/ 80’s independent scene and the early UK shoegazing era, their songwriting captures a range of energies; at times delivering a certain directness and intensity and at other times invoke wider, more expansive lush cinematic type arrangements.Their live performances often go beyond the confines and discipline of the recording environment, leading to freer improvisations reminiscent of the modern psych scene. Expect washed-out guitars and effects including a cacophony of delays, reverbs, fuzz and feedback, complimented by an array of analogue synth sounds. ‘Silhouette’ -TUTV ‘..titanic, psychedelic wall of blistering guitars. Mind bending and hypnotic. The non-stop jamming tension of The Brian Jonestown Massacre springs to mind. Stupefying. 'Prize' - Backseat Mafia ‘Prize’ is a cataclysmic onslaught of jangling, scything guitars.While it is easy to compare to Ride, Slowdive or a less brutal My Bloody Valentine, there is an added pop sensibility of The Cure or The Stone Roses as well as a laced veil of goth…a sixties jingle jangle sound that recalls The Brian Jonestown Massacre.
