      @@madontherun Genres such as new wave, post-punk and gothic rock come from the influences of bands and artists, not only from Suicide, but also from Television, Pere Ubu, Sparks, The Velvet Underground, Kraftwerk, La Monte Young, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Iggy Pop, David Bowie, Lou Reed, Neu and Can.

      Well i wouldn't say its because of suicide. I view suicide as more of an intermediate things, a middle between known music and little known music scene like the kitchen society and other shit from 60s

    I first heard this song on WPRB‘s “Crest of the New Wave” weekly radio show. I would listen with headphones and I’d have a pen and legal paper and take notes about the songs, the artists and the styles I heard. This song really grabbed me!
    Other songs I heard from that radio show included Jacko Homo by Devo, the original boojie boy recording of it (different from the Eno produced album version.) I also remember “Little Johnny Jewel” by Television from those intense listening sessions!
    This is the first I’ve come across this video of “Ghostwriter” by Suicide, and it is awesome!

    I played this LP constantly back in the day. I knew my love for records like this when I was a lad made me different from other kids in some fundamental way. On an intellectual level I didn't understand why this was the case one bit, but felt quite deeply on an intuitive one. That's the power of music.

    You can clearly tell it's a no-wave 70s band from New York, by the Lou Reed influence on the vocalist's voice. Since Lou Reed in the 70s was a bit like "the poet of the NY underworld" who influenced most of the great bands there (even in later years) such as Blondie, Television, Suicide, Talking Heads, The Strokes, LCD Soundsystem, etc.
