Static Phantoms Storm In with "Ghostwalk"; Premiering via The Big Takeover

Things are moving quickly for Static Phantoms, the newly formed outfit led by Kansas City musicians Dedric Moore and Krysztof Nemeth.

The duo recently announced their debut album, Bathed In a Blue Light, and shared its title track last month — and today they've reappeared with the band's latest single, premiering at The Big Takeover.

A supernatural flash of new wave and dream pop, "Ghostwalk" takes the torch from genre titans Tears For Fears and New Order, or perhaps their more contemporary counterparts like Small Black, DIIV, and The Horrors. While introductions aren't always easy, listening to Static Phantoms feels like meeting an old friend for the first time.

Nemeth and Moore's contributions to the Missouri music scene probably has something to do with that — as they've become familiar faces over the years in The Republic Tigers, Monta at Odds, and Emmaline Twist. But the new project offers something different, pairing Moore's production prowess with the exciting debut of Nemeth on lead vocals.

Streaming down below, take “Ghostwalk” for a spin — and stay tuned for more from Static Phantoms in 2022.
