Since releasing their eponymous debut, Early Ghost could have easily settled in with the Mumford and Sons of this world. Luckily, their new E.P ‘We Crossed the Waves’ shows paths into darker, nu-folk territory. Although some tracks share the style of the first record, it’s the more intense, enigmatic songs that stand out. The slow-burning ‘1914’ the highlight, and the medieval tinged ‘Bernardo’ another strong point. Overall, an improvement from their debut, and hopefully the sound of things to come.
