It is growing more and more uncommon in today's world of instant information and constant second guessing to find someone who knows their strengths and abilities and has the confidence to explore and display them. Few and far between are artists of all mediums and genres who can muster the bravery to say "I love this and I am good at it, so I will do the hell out of it!". The boys of Ghost of Chance, led by local wizard Jayson Munro have the courage.
Leap-years only come once every four years, and to celebrate this leap-year Ghost of Chance and 1974 are playing Cafe 9 in New Haven! I know its a Wednesday but its also a 4 year rarity, so you really have no choice but to attend.
Ghost of Chance are an experimental rock band based in New Haven, Connecticut. The group’s distinctive style is characterized by subtle time signature changes and sonically open experimentation set to surrealist lyrics. Ghost of Chance’s sound takes its influence from 1960s psychedelica, math rock and post punk while maintaining the shimmer of classic pop sensibilities.
Broadcast Hearts is a four-piece, alternative rock band from Trumbull, Connecticut. Formed in 2009, the group comprises Avery Bazan (lead vocals, piano), Chris Parian (synth, backing vocals), Justin Molfese (bass guitar, backing vocals), and Ted Ferik (drums).
Noted for their guitar-less set, the keys-based group engages a dynamic sound and style, drawing influence from acts such as Coldplay, Keane, Jack's Mannequin, and Ben Folds. Contrasted by leading piano and synths, the band presents a wide range of music from anthems to ballads. While still young, the band has enjoyed early success in various venues across Connecticut, Pennsylvania, and New York.
A Simple Beast is the sophomore effort from Ghost of Chance, hailing from New Haven. GOC creates a minimalistic atmosphere from the start with the song Carthage.The mellow vocals deliver narrative-style lyrics, over electronic drums, acoustic guitar, and dreamy organs (sounds like a Mellotron throughout the record, I could be wrong). The record has a carefully crafted atmospheric layer of instruments with steady reverb. It seems like a lot of care went to producing here. All the guitar effects are tasteful and purposeful. The recording itself sounds great. The arrangement of tracks works, which can make or break a record of this melodic, poppy and experimental style.
GOC really harness a mix of sounds on this record. Track three, Trident, has a feel of Sparkle Horse, but is followed by Lend Me a Dollar, giving an awesome Yo La Tengo feeling, without sounding derived. Every track is pretty unique. GOC gives the album a punch with the distorted chorus of Pilot. Again, the record surprises with Pipe, giving out an instrumental that is somewhere between the atmosphere of bands like Joan of Arc or Explosions in the Sky.
I can’t wait to see these guys live and see how they deal with the instrumental intricacies. I don’t know if they have any shows planned for the near future, as no shows are listed on their website. Check it out anyway. http://ghostofchance.com/

Tyburn Saints don't sound anything like saints, that's for sure. They actually sound quite like the opposite: maudit artists. Johnny Gimenez's deep, tenebrous tenor knows how to scream at us ("oh Sable"), but also how to lure us with vicious whispers or charming dark ballads ("Bells"). This is well executed dark rock that will find fans among those who revere Mr. Nick Cave's musical output.
