Since releasing 2009s New Leaves shortly after the birth of his
daughter, Mike Kinsella (American Football, Capn Jazz) has had to
embrace the untraditional role of being a stay-at-home father -- a
situation that has invariably led him to ruminate on the passing
of his own father and their strained relationship.
As such, Ghost Town finds Kinsella ridding his proverbial closet
of lingering presences.
At some point in the process of writing the album, I realized I
had a lot of references to ghosts, says Kinsella. So instead of
trying to hide or downplay the similarity amongst several of the
songs, I decided to highlight it. Make it a theme of sorts.
But as lyrics like You know Im still pissed after a life
tempestuous / Unless you can rise from the dead, Ill die like
this reveal, these are ghosts that wont go away quietly.
Perhaps that is why Ghost Town features some of Owens loudest,
rock-leaning moments to date -- exemplified by the forcefully
crescendoing outro of I Believe and the screeching electric
guitar solo in Everyones Asleep in the House but Me.
And because recording of the album began last summer, its drum
fills and back beats were certainly influenced by Kinsellas time
behind the kit during Capn Jazzs 2010 reunion tour.
As he reveals, I recorded most of the drums last August, right in
the middle of all the Capn Jazz shows, so Im sure I was hitting
the drums a little harder at the time than I have in years.
That Ghost Town proves to be yet another step toward a new musical
direction should come as no surprise to those who have followed
Owens songwriting evolution from sparse acoustic offerings (on
his self-titled debut) to lush, string-filled arrangements (At
Home With Owen, New Leaves).
With production by Brian Deck (Iron Wine) and Neil Strauch
(Bonnie Prince Billy), the songs on Ghost Town become as
beautifully fleshed-out as Kinsella finds the lyrical apparitions
he confronts to be frustratingly lacking substance.
As a result, the record serves to reincarnate the souls haunting
Kinsella -- enabling him to achieve closure and move forward with
the next chapter of his life.
