Ghost Towns - Lautrec - split - CD (2009)

Labels: Guesthouse Records – Nihilism Records
Review by: Danny Parsons

Right, just a quick review for this release. Lautrec have conveniently taken my two favorite tracks off of their eight-song demo (see my other review) and plonked them on this 7″. On one hand, I’m quite glad, on the other I feel slightly short-changed as it’s nothing new. Hrmmm. Ghost Towns have two untitled tracks and they are their last before disbanding. I think they may have equalled or topped their s/t 7″ as both tracks are absolutely raging. I really like the way this band does the whole emo/screamo/punk amalgam thing. It’s on green vinyl, is hand-numbered and has a bunch of inserts to sift through.

This is quite a decent release by two quite decent contemporary emo bands.
