If it is ever licensed for a commercial, it will be for Nike. As the song starts and the lyrics “I am going out to see what I can sow/And I don’t know where I’ll go/And I don’t know what I’ll see” are spoken, I can’t help but picture a runner shutting his or her front door at dawn, casually getting into stride, and disappearing into the shadows still lining the tired streets. 

Band member Theo Keating was encouraged by his mother to watch horror movies at a young age. He also lived behind a cemetary. Band member Simon Lord’s grandmother was considered psychic. In total, that’s good enough reason for the both of them to consider The Black Ghosts music “perverse” and “personal.”

Coincidentally, that pretty much sums up what you need to be to run 26.2 miles.
