Vic Bondi - Ghost Dance

Vic Bondi was the singer and occasional guitarist of Chicago hardcore legends Articles of Faith. AoF were some of the best songwriters in the early hardcore scene and this skill carries through into this solo acoustic album. Bondi has this to say about the album; "This record was probably the first acoustic record to come out of the hardcore scene, and the most difficult record I ever recorded. Most of it was written during a very hard winter, 1985-86."

Bondi's day jobs have included teaching history at the University of Massachusetts and working on Microsoft Encarta.

The record itself is more downbeat and personal than AoF's political punk but is one of the best solo albums to come out of any band ever.
