Ghost Stories - Quixoticism

Reviewed by david

Former Fruit Bats, Joggers and Dismemberment Plan collaborator Ron Lewis effortlessly establishes himself as a burgeoning songwriting force with Quixoticism, under the moniker of Ghost Stories. The record flitters between buoyant, transcendent indie pop, eerie lo-fi folk and everything in between, making use of psychedelic-tinged guitars, frail vocals and spacy elements at times. Lewis set the songs to tape in his house over the past couple of years. Suffice to say, it could soon be a bedroom classic. [www.sonicboomrecordings.com]
