KEEP YER EYES PEELED: Phantom Party

Phantom Party is a little poppy, surf/garage rock band with just over 250 likes on their Facebook page. I found them when they followed me on Tumblr. I checked out their recently released EP, Stellar, and was instantly hooked.  Despite hailing from the landlocked Arizona, the band still manages to nail the surf-rock, west-coast vibe. The lo-fi recordings, combined with the lead singer’s style, immediately brought California garage punk twins, The Garden, to mind.  However, I must note that Phantom Party’s music is perhaps a bit more accessible. The songs themselves are very catchy; I found myself humming the lead track, “Catholic School,” to myself a couple days later after my first listen.  The band only seems to be doing local tours right now, but I’d love to see them come to the east coast soon!

Rebuilding from the ashes of dead local Arizona bands comes Phantom Party. Born in the spring of 2015 by vocalist and guitarist Joshua Capati and bassist Matthew Slusser, they roared out of the garage with indie and surf punk songs taking influence from Wavves and The Libertines. Gabriel Hernandez and Austin Cooper round out the current lineup on guitar and drums respectively. The distinctive voice of Capati, as well as the clean guitar tones energized by bass and pounding drums helped to make the band easily discernible among their musical contemporaries. The following month, they released their debut EP, Stellar, for free on their Bandcamp, produced and mixed by the band themselves. It was recorded in multiple bedrooms around the band's hometown of Chandler, Arizona.
