I heard them doing a version of 'Pretty Vacant', and Glen honestly did put the emphasis on PRETTTY

And the title. And the typography.
Looks more 1982ish.

Really odd/bad production.

Reception
A point of criticism for the album was its production.
In its retrospective review, AllMusic wrote that the album "failed to live up to the promise of the single ["Ghosts of Princes in Towers"], in most cases trading punky power-pop in favour of more dirge-like hard rock – muddy sound doesn't help matters either."
Trouser Press wrote that "despite abysmal sound, the band's talent emerges, and Ghosts is an extraordinary album of daring experimental rock/pop".

Sudden, random increase in volume.
