The lullaby opening line of ‘Avalanche’ presents frontman Jonathan Vigil’s consistent guttural uncleans harmonising with echoing cleans. An 11-track long anthem to the mistakes of yesterday but the defiance of today and the victories of tomorrow, this is the best The Ghost Inside have sounded to date.Ĭrammed full of inspirational lyrics, roof-raising singalongs and face-melting riffs, ‘Dear Youth’ takes one look at the boundaries of metalcore and smashes them effortlessly, adapting their trademark emotion-driven style to a semi-concept record – a brave step in the right direction for a band whose only way is straight to the top. Taking pages from their history and tearing them apart in front of us, their fourth studio album ‘Dear Youth’ is the grittiest yet reflective we’ve seen the LA 5-piece.Ģ years since their last musical foray, The Ghost Inside have bottled all their contagious energy and anger, then spilled it all out into ‘Dear Youth’ to create pure, unadulterated emotional carnage.

We also see a life reclaimed, a business created, and a new love kindled. In these pages, readers see a parent's resilience, the consequences of misdiagnosis, abuse at the hands of cruel caretakers, and the unthinkable duration of Martin's mental alertness betrayed by his lifeless body. 'Ghost Boy' is the heart-wrenching story of one boy's return to life through the power of love and faith. The stress and heartache shook his parents' marriage and their family to the core. Martin was moved to care centers for severely disabled children.

Martin's parents were told an unknown degenerative disease left him with the mind of a baby and less than two years to live. Within eighteen months he was mute and wheelchair-bound. Then he slept constantly and shunned human contact. First he lost his voice and stopped eating. Martin Pistorius, aged twelve, fell inexplicably sick.
