Hospital Ships is a band that conjures so much in my mind, including the idea of a Grey’s Anatomy-style hospital drama on the high seas, but they also make me think of good music. Like my conception, the band started as a bedroom-recording project of Lawrence, Kansas’s Jordan Geiger, and like my birth they’ve prematurely evolved into a full-fledged four-piece. According to their Facebook, they even have a manager named Marshmallow the Cat!
If you like hearing music then you’ll want to check out Hospital Ships’ new album, With Destruction in Yr Soul, out June 18 on the Graveface Records and Curiousities imprint. This third album features fuzzy, gospel-like sounds that will make you feel safe and warm, unlike scary movie Ghost Ship, or depressing Chris Hardwick reality series Shipmates. Hear album track “Come Back to Life” here:
