Having recently returned Down Under from recording in London and Los Angeles, Australian rockers Ghostwood are back on the indie scene with their new single, Sunset Mirage. It was penned in LA while working with Dave Cooley of Dappled Citied and Dangermouse mastering fame. Although their new material has matured a great deal since Red Version days, they still bear the same old hazy, raw and nostalgic sound that we love.

Sydney’s indie music scene is peaking right now and one noteworthy band is Ghostwood. Their latest record, Rest My Soul [listen below], is just as ace as Red Version (the Pokémon-aluding hit from 2006). The melodic single bears elements of shoegaze, skilfully layering intricate guitar patterns with sultry bass, solid drumming and haunting vocals to create an ethereal ambiance. Fans can reserve an exclusive 7″ Rest My Soul vinyl this month via their Myspace page.
