William Ryan Key - “Everything Except Desire” While the album holds steadfast to the careening, joyous noise the noise-punk quartet staked their name on, the LP was produced by Unknown Mortal Orchestra’s Jake Portrait, making it the first release the band has recorded with a producer in a formal studio. Inspired by the disquieting film scores of “Nosferatu” (1922) and “The Wicker Man” (1973) alongside David Bowie’s “Low” and forever favorites Fleetwood Mac, “Visitor” marks a seismic shift for Philadelphia’s Empath. Ghost’s cover of “Enter Sandman” is on “Side G” and Volbeat’s “Don’t Tread on Me” is on “Side V.” The 7-inch is pressed on crystal clear vinyl and limited to only 3,000 units with 115 copies available at each tour stop on a first-come, first-served basis. Ghost, known for their theatrical performances and catchy metal, are previewing their March release, “Impera.” Volbeat is supporting their own fresh LP, December’s hard-charging “Servant of the Mind.” As a special bonus, on sale at the Camden gig will be a limited-edition double A-side 7-inch featuring each band’s contributions to the “Metallica Blacklist” charity album. It’s a double dose of European hard rock as Sweden’s Ghost and Denmark’s Volbeat have teamed up for a co-headlining tour.
