Ghost of Vroom – the new band comprised of veteran singer-songwriter Mike Doughty (Soul Coughing) and his longtime collaborator, bassist Andrew “Scrap” Livingston – have shared the official music video for their new song “I Hear the Ax Swinging,” directed by Dicktown co-creator and co-star David Rees. The song is from Ghost of Vroom’s debut album, GHOST OF VROOM 1, out via Mod y Vi Records Friday, March 19. Pre-orders are available now. Check it out below…
“I’m a huge David Rees fan — he is a samurai of modern absurdity,” Doughty told FLOOD magazine who premiered the clip earlier today. “I’m aiming for that with the lyrics, which is meant to be a confabulation of verbal sonics, language looping back and glitching on itself. So I think we’re a real love match artistically.”
