I can't believe I'll be in New Orleans this weekend . I kept saying this to myself again and again in the days leading up to my departure from Chicago. This wasn't exactly said in excitement, either - no, in fact, you could say it was laced with anxiety and stress. I'd be traveling alone to a city I'd never been to and what's worse, I was sick with a diet version of the flu, and couldn't stop sucking down vitamin D capsules and crackling open Sudafed packets. So, on Wednesday night, I paced around my apartment, muttering things to [...]
There are worse things you can spend four minutes watching than Dirty Ghosts 's Allyson Baker rocking out solo on various sunny sidewalks, belting out the band's new single, "Ropes That Way," off their debut album Metal Moon . And hey, whaddaya know? Those minutes exist, thanks to their new video directed by TV Carnage , which you can check out below. The band is currently in the midst of their first major tour (ending with a hometown show here on [...]

From the debut full-length Metal Moon .
A new video from Dirty Ghosts does this way come. For the track "Ropes That Way" it features Allyson Baker minus a guitar wandering the streets promptly rocking out with just a mic. Walking around with a barrage of passing houses and imagery it's pretty cool to see a lady minus a guitar. The track features on Dirty Ghosts' full length, wonderful debut, Metal Moon. Watch the video via CoS at the top and peep the upcoming tour dates after the jump.
Filed under: News Today, Oh Boy! Douglas Mason, Getty Images " The Hunger Games " features a pretty great analog synth track from 1972, and the story behind its origins is incredible. [ Wired ] Green Day post a 30-second clip from the studio. What does it tell us about their new album? Mainly that they're recording it in a really nice studio. [ Antiquiet ] The Shins [...]
Singer/guitarist Allyson Baker made a point of stepping away from her instrument and focusing squarely on mic work for Dirty Ghosts' debut, Metal Moon . In the TV Carnage-directed video for their new single, "Ropes That Way", that's where attention is once again fixed. Mrs. Aesop Rock , holds a mic affixed to, appropriately, a length of rope as she runs down the street singing the tune and rocking out. It's essentially what you do every day with your headphones on, except no one's thinking Baker's a crazy person. Check it out just [...]
Iconic rapper/producer Aesop Rock will return with his first solo LP in five years, Skelethon , on July 10th via Rhymesayers. The follow-up to 20072s None Shall Pass , the 15-track effort "follows in the wake of several deep personal losses and highlights subject matter that deals with the sometimes-futile ways people try to cope with serious issues," according to a press release. The record features cameos from Hanni El Khatib, Kimya Dawson, Rob Sonic, DJ Big Wiz, and Rock's wifey Allyson Baker of Dirty Ghosts (whose latest LP was [...]

Dirty Ghosts - Ropes That Way Dirty Ghosts - Shout It In Surprise, surprise. A few of the things that I've really been enjoying lately include: multiple Jameson/Gingers, Café Pilon espresso (daily), cuban sandwiches, solo night-rides on 20" wheels, almost anything The Bricks has on tap, greasy diner food, heavy-drinking women with a good sense of humor, and toast. I've also really been digging the new Dirty Ghosts release, Metal Moon (co-produced by Aesop Rock, [...]

I am helplessly addicted to London's Chapter 24 . Is it the intense Richard Lloyd guitar work? Is it the mere fact that no one else is making music like this?? Is it the image of melodica on leg?? Choose "D," all of the above. Since my first encounter at last year's SXSW, I've been hooked. They already have nine shows lined up for Austin, so I suppose I's got my work cut out for me. As fun as their recordings are, this is a band to see [...]
San Francisco's Dirty Ghosts is the vehicle of singer and guitarist Allyson Baker, formerly guitarist of the blues-rock unit Parchman Farm. Here, she swaps the guitar for a mic, taking on lead vocalist duties in full. There are several promising songs on the project's debut record, Metal Moon , but the overall incongruity keeps it from landing much more than just above average. Despite being a veteran in the music scene, she's a rookie in this new role, which quickly becomes clear. Dirty Ghosts' producer (and Baker's husband) Aesop Rock does a great job of [...]
