A studio diary is available at this location.

THE CHANT's debut album, "Ghostlines", was released in February 2008 the U.K. and Ireland via Shadow World Records / Plastic Head Distribution. "Ghostlines" was described as "a 54-minute emotionally charged rollercoaster ride with morose atmospheres, beautiful melodies and harmonies in the course of KATATONIA, ANATHEMA and HIM."

"Ghostlines" was produced by the MOONSORROW vocalist-bassist Ville Sorvali, and was mastered by Mikko Herranen of Rust and Misery Inc.. The cover booklet was shot by Ville Juurikkala (NIGHTWISH, HIM, AMORPHIS), who was named the "Best Rock Photographer" by the immensely popular City magazine.
