The Ghost You Gave To Me is another fantastic album by 3. This band is definitely going to make it into my top picks for 2012. The band's latest album sees them go a little commercial (a small smidgen) with their sound as it's a little bit more Coheed than it was previously. The production here is a lot bigger than on Wake Pig. It might sound odd, but I think this takes makes the album a little less intimate. I liked that Wake Pig sounded so clear and this one is a bit too loud and echoey. Still, an awesome album that I do not hesitate to spin again and again.

Useless Fact: The band was originally going to call this album "React." However, they decided on something that, when googled, would lead directly to them.
