A fan project.
Nothing official about it.
Citizens of Ghost Nation is a community site built by fans, for fans. I started it because the internet wasn't saying enough about a band I couldn't stop listening to, and the gap bothered me more than it should have.
What you get here is reviews of the tracks, deep dives into lyrics and production, a rough history of the band as best as I can piece it together from public information, and a Wall where any signed-up citizen can post short takes, links, or whatever else feels relevant. That's the whole thing. Nothing fancy.
The band doesn't run this site. They don't get to approve what goes up. They probably haven't read it. If they ever do and they don't like something, I'll hear about it and we'll figure it out. Until then, fan takes stay fan takes.
The origin story, such as it is
I got hooked sometime in 2023. Discover Weekly served me Unforgiven, I played it four times in a row, looked up the band, realized they were a Stockholm duo with no tour and a catalog of 15+ singles, and spent the next week going through everything in order.
By the second week I'd made a playlist. By the third I'd written three paragraphs about Lost in a notes app and never sent it to anyone. The site is basically what happened when I finally had somewhere to put that energy.
I'm not a journalist. I'm not a critic. I'm a person who listens to the same songs too many times and wants other people to listen to them too.
How to become a citizen
Pick a handle. Make an account. Post on the Wall. That's really it. There's no application, no fee, no gatekeeping. If you like the band and you want to hang out with other people who do, you already qualify.
What this site is not
- Not a merch store. Nothing for sale, nothing ever will be.
- Not a music player. The embeds link out to Spotify.
- Not a news site. If the band announces something, I'll post about it, but I'm not scooping anyone.
- Not a copy of ghostnation.se. That's their thing. This is separate.
