Hospital Billy
A few months have gone past and my hands are healing themselves slowly. But my assets are not. So in order to help me pay for my hospital bills, I am trying to get folks to commission songs from h,hg.
If you spend $50 or more on any of the hungry, hungry ghost releases on our Bandcamp page, you will get a personalized song on the theme of your choice.
There is one song being made now and I would love some more, not only to help me pay off my hospital bills, but also to make an EP out of it!
So spread the word if you could..

It Rained. I'm Poor. But Not Alone.
H,HG played its first west coast show on Sunday, at the first annual East Bay Mini Maker Faire in Oakland. Complete with brand new Wagemann (now worse for wear from the rain). It was pouring. It was 10:30 in the morning. It was an experience.
In other news, this project will soon be a band again. And work on the album WILL commence. I love you, goodbye.

The Quarter-Centenarian: new single-track release
In a beginning effort not to hold onto music for very long before i send it out the window, a new single-track release from h,hg is available entitled The Quarter-Centenarian which was recorded, mixed and mastered in August and September here in Brooklyn.
You can download a regular-quality version of the track, for free, or choose to download the high-quality version for one dollar. Both are available at our bandcamp site.
Look out for more single-track releases in the future. Thanks, love, alex.

On Tuesday:
-Ukulele being tuned to the wrong key, the first song was abandoned.
-Guitar proved to also be out of tune. Tuner proved to be non-functional.
-Guitar remained shoddily tuned for remainder of show.
-Upon dancing in excitement to the final number, singer landed on a power strip. Subsequent pain in ankle area.
-Two minutes pass.
-Singer, again jumping, lands on digital audio device (see iPod), which effectively turned off in the middle of the song.
See ya Saturday!

montag montag
It's so hard to wake up sometimes. For years I have found myself on "very important missions" right as I probably should be waking up. In my school years once I even yelled at my mother as she was trying to wake me up for what was likely the fourth or fifth time, "I can't, I'm on a mission!"
This morning, I was practicing a non-existant Cat Stevens song in front of a mirror, naked except for a headband. And I was certain that I could not wake up into my actual life until I got that song down.
Maybe it's nervousness.
Come out and see for yourselves, I'm playing another HUNGRY, HUNGRY GHOST PLAYS ALONG WITH SELF-KARAOKE show tonight in Manhattan at The Delancey (168 Delancey St., between Clinton & Attorney).
It is part of some bittersweet irony-themed night called Laid-Off Mondays and apparently if you can prove that you got laid off, you get one free shot of tequila at midnight.. But I am playing at 8 p.m. So.. maybe have a shot before you come.
Probably talking to myself,

self-karaoke
So. Here I am again, frenziedly playing here and there to no one. Working my langsam way up a ladder whose bars are invisible and which undeniably stands upon two levels, encroaching dangerously upon the absolute zero point of must-fall. Is anyone out there? I think I hate the internet. No, I love it...No, I hate it.. No, wait..
The show last week really sent my week into a bitter spiral toward my third sickness within 35 days. A depressing room of relics, empty but for the employers and employees and one of two of the other people who also played. A live webcam, but a terrible feeling of failure. I thank my brother and the sound guy and the one clapping guy on the barstool. I thank you. To top it all off, I accidentally decapitated my newest bandmate, the sweet Else Pappe...
Perhaps it's just the winter doldrums creeping into my skin, but it's starting to make the Germany shows in front of 15-20 people seem like stadium affairs. . . Here I am again!
Aye, but I've chosen it and I will do it. There are things on the horizons, new releases and the such. But as the base ideas for these have been changing rapidly and occasionally, I utter not a word. Except that there is a new song (likely not from an upcoming release) available on our myspace page.
O sweet Earth - usher in the Spring, I beg it of you and with it the conquering feeling of a warm day's work.
Love always,
Alex // hungry, hungry ghost

Arguably cooler than a medicine hat is this new much talked about video.
Actually, why not watch it right here?
Also, thanks everyone who came out to the press screening.
And, there will be more Drama.
After all, we are an Art School project.
Additionally, we like Dance.
Alas, this is the video: Complimentary Maps
Accompanied by the a FREE MP3 of the song for your favorite electronic device.
(Aside the fact that you could stream it to cassette tape for nostalgic crunch n'fuzz.)
Always love

For the past week we have been hiding from friends and family, civilization and internet out in the country making our first music video. It tore us limb from limb, turned us against each other and made us a eensy bit stronger.
View the fruits of our labor in our new video for the song Complimentary Maps from our debut album Sleeping English by clicking on the words "SHIT IS GOLD".
We also have new shows posted and more are on the way.

Just Like Starting Over
Or keeping going.
Happy new year to you. We are beginning the big new one with another review of our debut album and a show tonight at the old stomping ground Schokoladen with Alina Simone from Brooklyn.
We will be playing as a four-piece tonight with a different set-up so do come see us if you're in the area.
Only love,
Alex

We on the Radio!
Hello, good december to you, lovely heart-owners.
Tomorrow (Sunday, 9. December), we will be playing a very special three-song live set on Fritz Radio RBB here in Berlin and Brandenburg.
GMT+1: 18:00-20:00. EST: 12:00-14:00.
If you are in the area, the radio frequence is 102,6.
If you are not, then you should be able to hear the live stream from this link.
Then two days later, we'll be trudging our way to Hamburg to play aboard the MS Stubnitz, which we hear is some sort of insane musical party cruiser. That shall yet be seen, comrades. Anyway, if yr in Hambürsch, then come give a hoot. And perhaps a holler.
All the love I can scrounge out of the corners of my eyes,
Alex C.H.

Rezension // Auftritte
click here to read another glowing review of the album.
Also, there are currently two more opportunities to see us live this year, just waiting for you to grasp them and use them up. On 22. November, we'll playing in NBI here in Berlin and aboard the MS Stubnitz next month in Hamburg on 11. December.
We will then continue along with the months in January and hopefully start work on the next album.
Current versions of some of the newer songs can be heard at the aforementioned shows.
That's all for now.
KRAM!

Sleeping English: review
Here is the first review for our new album from the lovely people at Kabelblume.

US orders
hey if you live in the US and have been thinking or contemplating about or pondering to purchase our album you should order it from CD Baby at http://cdbaby.com/cd/hungryhungryghost! it's easy and they are very friendly and helpful there. you can of course also still buy it from our website. even if you live in the US. or buy it from their store even if you live outside the US.
if you really can't decide, come to our SHOW on the 25th at the infamous Schokoladen. which would be a little too much to ask if you live in the US, then you should buy the album from their website. or our website. which doesn't mean that you per se can't come out to the SHOW.

live love
we were strolling down to the river to see the boats colliding and then we thought, wait, the show this thursday should be FREE. when we saw this majesty of nautical engineering we were so humbled and frankly had no choice. so come out and bathe in the sound and loving warmth of our new monstrous 15 inch amp.

bang bang we're dead 60s
the show tonight is canceled due to serious illness. we apologize. all presale tickets can be returned. but on the lighter side you could use that time and do something really special. like learn the charts of the night sky to impress your lover on your next date beneath the stars. or your science teacher. now carry on. -sven

bang bang youre dead 60s
yesterday i couldnt move for 10 minutes because the dentist was working inside my mouth. so i stared at the wall covered in child crafted miniature paintings and my gaze fell upon a truely somewhat gruesome depiction of a man in red with a zappa mustache lined by big black letter that read: "Huuuuu Huuuuu Geist". what do you know. point is: apparently we're playing the BANG BANG CLUB at Hackescher Markt on Thursday at 10! come out and witness the wildness! first to show up gets a free song request. cmon, ANY song! -sven

THIS IS THE ONE
Good day. Our new album is currently being manufactured and will finally see release on 5. October 2007 on Widerheim. The album is called "Sleeping English" and has eleven tracks, which we have semi-tediously been working on for more than a year now. The tracklisting is as follows:
1. Hundred Yard Reach 2. Seldom Am I 3. Complimentary Maps
4. Golden Boy 5. Sleeping English 6. Blind 7. Escape to Witch Mtn.
8. Bonhauser Allee (Don't Know the Words) 9. Exploder
10. The Magpie 11. We Are Melting!
The album was recorded in Moabit between June 2006 and April 2007 and was mastered by Tom Müller in May of 2007. The album artwork (which is beautifully extended in actual format) was made by the gracious Elizabeth Sargent.
More info about that soon! xoxoxo aleks!
