"Screaming In Digital: Ghost Electric! When I boarded my flight to SXSW this year, the plan was to shut it down and zone out for three hours before four days of insanity. As I settled into my window seat, a longhair joined me on the aisle. His name was Mark Abbruzzese - a professor of anthropology and the lead singer of the Orange County band GHOST ELECTRIC. There's always musicians on that flight to Austin. But I wasn't prepared for this guy to tell me that one of his primary influences is Geoff Tate. You probably won't find Rage For Order on the iPods of too many SXSW hipsters. Since then, GHOST ELECTRIC have been finishing up their debut album, To Be Announced, which will be released this summer. More hard rock than metal, the music is progressive and stylistically diverse. But the vocals stand out, and they immediately bring Tate and his impressive pipes to mind. "

You probably won't find Rage For Order on the iPods of too many SXSW hipsters. And truth be told, QUEENSRYCHE has so far been overlooked by the recent 80s metal revival.

Bio
Ghost Electric formed in 2009 members include; David Shanley (guitar and keyboards), Clint Brown (bass), Mark Abbruzzese (vocals) and Lyle Michael Derby (drums and shakers). Ghost Electric's musical mind is moody/eclectic and syncretic, some kind of haunting-hopeful AlternativeMetal. Our art is to seek each song’s inner bits, colors, textures, swells, sweetness, and thunder, wie Leben. We are familiar yet confusing, we are the mirror to the face, chilling and admirable. The band has just recorded their first album “To Be Announced” which will be released by late 2010. The band has an intergalactic thought to be known to the Universe is it expands, tears, snaps back to singularity or something completely different. If there is a you, an us, or ends?
