Northern Liberties – Ghost Mind Electricity (Valiant Death, 2007)

This is the third full length album by Philadelphia’s own NORTHERN LIBERTIES.

It’s obvious that lots of people can relate the energy of live music to a spiritual experience, but
Northern Liberties are one of the few bands whose music is MEANT to be a spiritual experience.
The brainchild of Valiant Death logo artist Justin Duerr (author of “Decades of Confusion Feed The
Insect” zine), this album is the best recording of Northern LIberties to date (and I’ve loved this band
since I was 16…) – heavy, heavy rhythms and bass driven melodies yet again set the stage for Justin’s
occult themed lyrics.

This isn’t just good music written about weird stuff, this is a tome of belief, a testament to the ideas
behind what Duerr refers to as “Ghost Mind Electricity” and the foundations for what has only come
to be known as “Ghost Punk”.

Beautiful packaging for this CD – a 6 panel full color digipak and a 8 page lyric booklet, in addition
to the long running time of this 12 track album make this a very worthy investment for anyone seeking
something new and different.
