The Black Ghosts are a United Kingdom-based electronic music duo composed of Theo Keating and Simon William Lord, formed in 2006. They are currently signed to Southern Fried Records in the UK and IAMSOUND Records in North America. Keating and Lord had previously been in the bands The Wiseguys and Simian, respectively. Keating is well known for his other recording synonyms Touche and Fake Blood. ==History== Keating and Lord discovered each other through the Internet and had only physically met after they had worked on a significant amount of material together.〔(Interview: The Black Ghosts - The Black Ghosts features on Clickmusic )〕 The Black Ghosts' style was described as being "perverse, personal pop music",〔(Home - Band )〕 a tendency that has its roots in both Keating and Lord's early childhood. Keating was encouraged by his mother to watch horror movies at a young age; Lord's grandmother was considered psychic.〔 The Black Ghosts released a series of singles followed by the DJ mix titled ''Mixtape'' and the well-received EP ''Anyway You Choose to Give It''.〔(Damon Albarn guests on new Black Ghosts album | News | NME.COM )〕 Their self-titled debut album was released on 8 July 2008.〔(The Black Ghosts Will Release Their Self-Titled Debut On Iamsound 8 July 2008 @ Top40-Charts.com - 40 Top 20 & Top 40 Music Charts from 25 Countries )〕 The lead single "Repetition Kills You" features Damon Albarn as guest vocalist.
