The Ghosts That Haunt Me, the 1991 debut from Winnipeg's Crash Test Dummies, is a folk-rock record that lives on Brad Roberts's voice, a deep bass-baritone that gives every line the weight of a sermon. Its big moment is "Superman's Song", the band's first single and a top ten hit at home in Canada.

The packaging is as bookish as the music: the cover and liner notes use Gustav Doré's illustrations for Samuel Taylor Coleridge's The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, with more art taken from Restif de la Bretonne's 1781 tale The Discovery of the Austral Continent by a Flying Man.
