Ra Ra Riot – Ghost Under Rocks

This song became popular in indie cultures right around Halloween when they started playing every song they could find that had anything to do with Halloween, in this case ghosts. Tegan and Sarah’s Ghost song also got a lot of play as well as a song called Halloween Head which was kind of funny, because i have no idea how you could come up with such a word. “Ghost Under Rocks” starts out slowly introducing each instrument guitar, violin plucking, drums & vocals. That’s one of the main things i like about this band is they use so many different sources to create a fun song. Their new album Rhumb Line has just been released go get that shit!

Ra Ra Riot Last.FM blurb:
Formed at Syracuse University in January 2006, Ra Ra Riot is an amorphous blob (read as: band) that consists of seven highly dedicated individuals, each bringing her/his own experiences as both people and musicians to the metaphorical table. Their most recent indie pop recording is The Rhumb Line on Barsuk records for which the band received a 4 star review in Rolling Stone and is on tour across the U.S beginning in the fall of 2008.
