It should be pointed for those wot don't know that the new album 
"You Guys Kill Me" sounds very different from "Ghost". 

"Ghost" is dark, screeching, crushing, oppressive, industrial, intense and
so on. "You Guys Kill Me" is much lighter, more open and way more 
friendly. The out of tune sampled guitar screeches are tuned way down.
A much more pleasant (and IDM friendly) listen.

But, yeah, if you want a record to clear out the stubborn hangers-on at 
your party, "Ghost" would be way up the list.

(i.e. I like "You Guys Kill Me". A lot. And Ghost)

Cheers
