Hungry Ghosts - Eponymous 4 track EP

http://rapidshare.com/files/48993350...hosts.rar.html

My version seems to have a different cover to the one shown elsewhere and is number 284 of an edition of 500.

Hungry Ghosts were 'discovered' by Steve Shelley on SY's 1998 tour of Australia, and he helped them release an album called 'Alone Alone'. This EP pre-dates their 'discovery' by about a year.

Review from terrascope.org:-

"Hungry Ghosts' eponymous EP starts off with 'Three Sisters.' A violin runs through some Morrocan sounding scales, squeeze box and xylophone adds to the sawing sound until it's like a Tom Waits funeral dirge. The band are Australian, and this is produced by ex-Birthday Party member Roland S. Howard. 'Africa' is a clanging metaphor for disturbing incidents which go unreported amongst the pipes at the backs of factories. 'Fly' adds acoustic guitar to the recipe, which perversely recommends that this hot spicy dish be served cold: Freezing tombstone elegies delivered by people with life and fire in their veins. 'Love Song' lifts the heavy atmosphere at the end with a lovely workout sounding like Simon Jeffes of the Penguin Cafe Orchestra forced to busk with Spanish street musicians for his air fare home."
