Ghosts From Horny Past- They're horny, so horny, horny, horny....



For those of you poor suckas who are unfamiliar with Ghosts From Horny Past, they are at once noisy, cool, spooky, and dammmnnnnn sexy! Hailing from somewhere in Briz, they are ensconced in a veil of mystery. Who are they? Where exactly do they come from? And most importantly, how did they get to be so cool? Like the eternal question of whether or not Michael Jackson actually was an emotionally unstable child molester, who the Ghosts really are is a question well worth answering. Ghosts front woman Ignis Fatuus was kind enough to give us a quick phone interview to fill in some of the gaps.....


PGL- First of all, thanks so much for taking the time out of your busy schedule for this interview....
GFHP- No problem sexy! We always have time for Positive Guest List, it's totally the coolest blog around!
PGL- Thanks! So for those of our readers who are unfamiliar with you, tell us a bit about the origins of the band.
GFHP-  Well, basically, our particular style arose because there was an un-tapped hole in the music scene, particularly in Brisbane - there was a lot of great music, be it noise, avant, pop, hip-hop.... but there just wasn't enough horny music. So we got together- myself and Apparitus (keys) Incorporealeus (synth) and Paramnesia (piano) and just started loosely jamming. People related to the idea, and what followed was history! I guess you would describe our sound as being noise with no real direction or purpose, but all tied together with a steady drumbeat. If I could sum it up in a word though, that word would be horny.
PGL- Who is your main inspirational figure?
GFHP- Definitely Hugh Hefner. Or maybe Jordan.
PGL- For newcomers to your gigs, what should they expect?
GFHP- We encourage fans every show to remove their clothing and dance, the premise being that they are, in effect, too sexy for their shirts. We ourselves have sworn a solemn oath to be as sexy and half-naked as possible.
PGL- Do you believe in ghosts yourselves?
GFHP- If you believe in the idea of heaven or any kind of afterlife then it goes hand in hand with that notion that to ascend to a higher plane you have to be willing to let go of any earthly woes or torment. And as perpetual horniness is the most common bane of human existence, it goes without saying that any person who has shed their mortal coil cannot leave this plane until they have accepted that will never again get lucky.

Ghosts From Horny Past's self titled début 7" is out now through secret distribution....If you want to get your hands on a copy, hit us up at the Positive Guest List Facebook and we will let the band know!
