Simon Joyner’s thirteenth studio album is Ghosts (or sixteenth or so if you count the early tapes) and it’s release marks 20 years that Joyner has been making music. He funded the project with a Kickstarter campaign, in which he outlined some big ambitions for the double album that he called “experimental and sprawling, featuring some avant/psych/noise damage and songs wrestling with the ghosts of Alex Chilton, Skip Spence, and Jackson C. Frank, among other persistent influences.” The entire recording process was analog, with no digital technology used at all and it was released on Joyner’s own revived record label, Sing, Eunuchs! The result is a collection of songs that are filled with flavors, decorations, and experimentations that are unique to Joyner’s catalog, while still capturing the same old Joyner spirit.
