| 5.0 classic | IamNOTninjaNICK | June 7th 22 |
This is my new favorite Stabbing Westward album. It's a great culmination of their past work mixed with the production of The Dreaming making them sound more modern, fresh, and relevant than ever. Repeated listens uncover layers upon layers of hidden depth. 5/5

Really enjoyed this, great to see these guys back after so long, and with such a strong effort.

Extremely underwhelming first go-around. No hooks- like background music. I love S.W.'s earlier stuff- but I'm left puzzled with this latest effort.

Catchy and well composed darkwave with an industrial metal sheen.

It's fine, but I loved the last two the Dreaming albums more.

Chasing Ghosts is a dark, dreary album full of pulsating synths, pounding rhythmic percussion, and aggressive yet accessible riffs, all rounded out by the strong vocals of Christopher Hall. It is the seamless follow-up to Stabbing Westward's seminal peak, Darkest
Days. When Stabbing Westward hit the scene the first time, they quickly drowned in a sea of genre saturation combined with high label expectations that quickly turned to indifference, but they don't have to worry about those things anymore. Hopefully this second era won't end up with the same footnote, -- Wrong Place, Wrong Time -- because Chasing Ghosts is absolutely the right release... hopefully it's finally the right time.

It's a sad fact that Christopher's pencil has gotten progressively more dull ever since The Dreaming's Rise Again, which failed to quite reached the level of Puppet.
