Montreal three-piece Ghost Love remembers and reflects on people after they’re gone in emotional track “Iconic,” leading with their signature electro-tinged dark-pop melodies and brooding vibes. Drawing inspiration from the dreamsvocalist David Rancourt had of his mother after her passing, the track comes to life as a raw yet cathartic meditation of how far off yet close to our hearts someone feels after their passing.
With poignant lyrics that explore Rancourt’s intense emotions about his mother, the healing number is an ode that assures she’ll never be forgotten – sure to remind anyone listening of precious people who are no longer with them.
Managing to find a sound that’s decadent and ethereal all at once, Ghost Love’s captivating ebb and flow between pop and experimental leaves us feeling hopeful yet vulnerable. With the track offering a glimpse of their upcoming album Mourners Disco, we’re given a luscious sonic treat with subtle undercurrents of grieving to touch every emotion within us.
