Additional information
Obaro Ejimiwe is still sleepless and sounds every bit the part on the fifth Ghostpoet album, his first since 2017's Dark Days + Canapés. Lethargy and lack of projection notwithstanding, he's cognizant enough to transmit his ever-harrowing thoughts, wishing for death, quoting pro-Brexit demonstrators, and acknowledging "I was once your Superman, now I'm just bones" with mystifying impassivity. Sour paralysis is conveyed in almost every track, whether the target is narcissism, materialism, or racism. The energy increases only when Ejimiwe is at his most defiant on "Nowhere to Hide Now" (with the returning Delilah Holliday providing whispered background vocals) and the title song, the only cut that could be termed a rocker, as all else crawls and slinks. Even with its uneasy strings and variety of keyboards, the sound is starker in comparison to the previous Ghostpoet LP. It's less reliant upon electronics with a stronger emphasis on the razor-sharp interplay between drummer Fabian Prynn and bassist Tom Herbert -- both holdovers from the previous album -- and guitarist Benjamin Markham, who breaks occasionally from circular and shadowy supporting rhythms to deal out liberally reverbed lashings. While the album's cover deliberately recalls Henry Fuseli's The Nightmare, it wouldn't look out of place between copies of Joy Division's Closer and Associates' Sulk. Like those two post-punk touchstones, I Grow Tired But Dare Not Fall Asleep has a despairing seductive power. ~ Andy Kellman
Reviews
NME (Magazine) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "Ghostpoet is his quintessential languid self here. The album is soulful, melancholic with bursts of urgent sonics -- a suitable accompaniment to the sense of burden in the lyrics." Clash (Magazine) - "Ghostpoet doesn't shy away from pressing issues -- he tackles them head on. As ever, he does so with brilliance and genre-defying sounds, fusing elements of alt-rock and electronica."

The three disc Whitesnake album was a very good price, exactly as described and in perfect condition. It was well packaged to protect it on its journey to me, free postage, very quickly dispatched and arrived ahead of time. There was excellent communication every step of the way. An absolutely outstanding seller, who I’ve bought from previously and would have no hesitation in buying from again ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The seller was really patient and helpful during the whole buying process and when opening an eBay request. As of today I received my order and I feel extremely happy and grateful to the seller for all their hard work and help with investigating where the package was. The local delivery office felt a little more pressured to complete the delivery sooner and hence I received it, I am really grateful, thank you so much. I totally recommend buying with "smarttimes", such a pleasant experience.
