Love Ghost has always understood the creative power of collaboration, and to this end has sought out like minds and similarly smart cookies from across the musical landscape, both sonically similar and musically far removed. The results have always been fantastic.
This third collaboration with The Skinner Brothers (following “Freedom in a Padded Cell” and “Scrapbook”) sees Finnegan Bell and his musical posse return to what you might regard as Love Ghosts’ sonic origins and formative signature sound.
“Worth It” is an explosive slice of incendiary rock and roll, a blend of ferocious energy and alt-rock weight, emotive vibes, and more technical classic rock riffs that roar through the song.
As always, we find Bell’s heart bleeding out into the music, a soul searching self-reflection on the age-old question, “Why wasn’t I enough for them?” Lyrically vulnerable, sonically anthemic, it is the perfect blend of the insular and the intimate, the powerful and the punchy. And as personal as the song is, there isn’t a single listener who isn’t nodding their head and saying to themself…“I’ve been there.” (Hey, don’t beat yourself up over it, we all have, and maybe we will be again.)
I love everything that Love Ghost does. I love the adventure, the ability to push their own boundaries, to embrace sounds that might seem miles away from what you thought they were all about. But I love them most when they are cranking up the big guitars, the pummeling beats, the soaring vocals and punching a sky searing sound into the ether.
This is glorious stuff; it’s as simple as that?
