'Bone Garden' is the first single to be lifted from I Am Ghost's new album 'Those We Leave Behind'. 'Bone Garden' is loud, fast and powerful, the kind of song to start a gig off with. It grabs your attention quickly and the tempo keeps you wrapped up in it right until the end. The most notable element for me is the production. Full and clear tones from the guitars are evident in Bone Garden and make it easier to hear every note played with clarity, which in my opinion is vital to this post-hardcore style of music.

The song writing too is well done. It follows a very traditional structure but it's a structure that works well across all genres. The verse is a guitar wielding monster which flows well into a chorus that's quite catchy, mixing singing and screaming to good effect. The breakdown is however just a little too predictable but in no way ruins the overall quality of the song.

Overall I Am Ghost have got themselves a song that will get attention and grow their fan base. With 'Those We Leave Behind' already out and a UK tour in December I think they'll enjoy greater coverage and success in 2009.
