OLD GHOUL is the new work of the insanely prolific Chad Davis, most renowned for the legendary Hour of 13. And much like that widely celebrated doom vehicle, his new OLD GHOUL sticks to a dark, doomed-out route that's as haunting as it is heavy. With a mere three songs in 15 minutes, the band's self-titled debut EP gets in and gets out, doing its job of spooking the fuck outta you and letting the mystery linger after the record's over...which isn't long, as these three bangers swagger with a slo-burn intensity that just begs for repeat spins! And much like more recent Hour of 13 material, OLD GHOUL definitely bears a distinct deathrock touch along with the tried-and-true doom ones, making Old Ghoul an auspicious start - and one to dig deeper graves!
