Anatomy of a Ghost - Evanesce (Oct 21, 2003)

Evanesce is the only studio album released by Anatomy of a Ghost. Still such a shame (even though a majority of the lyrics are 3x more unrecognizable than the Degausser chorus).

Also, I'm not sure there is an odder sound transition and popularity explosion between AOAG and Portugal, The Man.

 

I loved this band in 2003! Saw them once at a small place, and it was so much fun. It still blows my mind that the vocalist went on to be the frontman for PTM. It's especially surprising to my fiance because she loves PTG and hates it every time I put on AOAG to remind her what the singer used to sing like, haha.

 

Absolutely adore this album.

 

Fun album

 

It’s such an album of that time. I’ve listened to it a couple of times this year.

 

I was digging at my local record store and found a copy of this on Vinyl. I used to listen to this album non-stop. I remember when they broke up and Portugal started. I still really love all those demos Portugal put out before Waiter: You Vultures!

 

Listened to this again yesterday. The Glassjaw > Head Automatica of our generation.

Even though it's the same generation.

 

You got my hopes up for a reunion show or something when I saw this thread got bumped!!! But either way, such a great album and band.

Still insane that the singer dude became Portugal the Man.

 

Guitarist of the band (or bassist?) has a podcast I’ll still listen to occasionally (Peer Pleasure)
