Ghosts (Sleeping at Last album)
''Ghosts'' is the second studio album, and major label debut of the alternative rock band Sleeping at Last. It was released on October 7, 2003 on Interscope Records. The band found some success with their single "Say".
==Background and recording==
The band initially received major record label attention after providing Smashing Pumpkins frontman Billy Corgan a copy of their self-released debut album, ''Capture'' in March 2001.〔http://www.allmusic.com/artist/sleeping-at-last-mn0000027221/biography〕〔 While not credited as a producer, he did help the band shape the album:
"We've had so many conversations with (). He never interfered with what we wanted to do, but he'd tell us what he thought was really strong. He'd say, 'That's a great direction. You can tap into more of that, if you want.' He taught us a lot about song arrangement. And he always said he really believes in what we're doing."〔http://www.one21music.com/sleeping-at-last/〕
Frontman Ryan O'Neal would spend the following two years writing the album, including writing out the lyrics on an old typewriter, without composing any of the music in mind during the sessions.〔 With all of the lyrics written out, he then began working on applying the lyrics to musical compositions; some went effortlessly, while others took extensive reworking.〔 Corgan, impressed with the work, helped them secure a record deal with Interscope Records in late 2002.〔 The band cancelled plans to record an EP in order to focus their efforts on their major record label debut.〔http://www.decapolis.com/cgi-bin/music/viewnews.cgi?newsid1025313601,86991,〕 The band initially planned on starting the recording sessions in 2002 and then releasing the album in early 2003,〔 though the recording sessions ended up not starting up until the beginning of 2003, and took six months to complete.〔 The band recorded in music producer Steve Albini's Electrical Audio studio,〔 and per the studio's recommendation, worked with Susan Voelz on the album's orchestral arrangements, as the band generally knew the sounds they wanted to make, but did not necessarily have the means to convey it on paper.〔http://stereosubversion.com/interviews/sleeping-at-last〕 Corgan also helped get them in contact with a number of people in the music industry he had previously worked with, including producer Bjorn Thorsrud, who Corgan had then recently collaborated with on his ''Adore'' and ''Machina/The Machines of God'' albums with the Smashing Pumpkins,〔http://www.melodic.net/?page=review&id=1696〕 and mixer Alan Moulder, who had also worked on the ''Machina'' sessions.〔
