The Ghost List is an EP by American post-hardcore band Girls Against Boys which was released independently on September 24, 2013. The EP was recorded in New York and was released eleven years after their previous album from 2002.
The inspiration for the EP was some song ideas from 2003, from just after the group's final album, You Can't Fight What You Can't See, that Eli Janney rediscovered. [3]
Stuart Berman of Pitchfork describes The Ghost List as "a successful reboot for a mothballed machine whose core components-- brawn, dissonance, and groove-- are shown to be still in fine working order. Sure, we’ve seen this movie before, but Girls Against Boys haven't forgotten the good parts." [4]
All tracks are written by Girls Against Boys.
