In stormy nights we live and survive, seeing through the darkness, the wind
and the rain to another dawn and a new day?

Over the hour's-worth of music and sound that makes In Stormy Nights, Ghost
apply their folk sounds, improvisations and avant-garde constructions to a
savage evocation. In the world we live in today, we can only imagine what
this means. And we agree.

Throughout In Stormy Nights there are a variety of sounds and songs, ranging
from pop-folk numbers to hard rock to outre´ concepts held together by
Ghost's diverse musical personality. The essence of Ghost is the epic
?Hemicyclic Anthelion.' Nearly thirty minutes of free improvisation from
several live shows are strung together into a seamless progression. This
piece is a cornerstone of In Stormy Nights and the a representation of
original approach of Ghost pure improvisation. Ghost are forever looking
for themselves in the music they make. To make ordinary beauty is easy, but
Ghost are listening beyond that. Even the acid-folky songs are based in
improvisation.

Over the years, Ghost have never had the same lineup twice on any of their
album sessions until now. The In Stormy Nights Ghost is the same Ghost that
recorded Hypnotic Underworld and the same group that thundered across the US
in 2004. They display intense power on these new recordings, incorporating
frame drums and tympanis and the "springer" (a device made by Batoh that
contains metal springs, a resonance box, plasma ball (light) and rotating
machine to create a heavy yet theremin-like sound) into their
already-diverse orchestra. The center of the album is a series of
tympani-driven songs that rock with a fury, mirroring the martial mood of
our governments a mood that musicians and artists may not share in beyond
reflecting it. This powerful section concludes with an absolutely blasting
cover of Cromagnon's 'Caledonia' a favorite band of Ghost?s that they are
delighted to share with listeners in this fashion.

The CD concludes as it began: Grisalle' and 'Motherly Bluster' form an
eternal loop, rising about the chaos at the center. In Stormy Nights Ghost
survive and flourish.
