Just recently, GHØSTKID gave fans a new standalone single, ahead of their SOLD-OUT European trek supporting Bad Omens that kicks off this week. Listen to “HOLLYWOOD SUICIDE” now here.
GHØSTKID founder Sebastian “Sushi” Biesler comments: “
Being an artist always means to give everything you have and go beyond your limits, to become successful – and the life that you live is controlled by that dream. You’re driven by the motivation to let it become reality, and at a certain point, you have to face a lot of obstacles, temptations; you can easily get lost if you don’t keep yourself focused on passion and identity. Being in the showbusiness is like swimming in a tank full of sharks and surviving…
‘HOLLYWOOD SUICIDE’ describes the state of mind to dedicate your whole life to your dream and your art – you metaphorically kill yourself, for something that starts as an idea in your mind. Work hard, play hard – this is Hollywood suicide.”
“Ugly… people are ugly because society only accepts you if you fit into the mold and they will always try to shape you if you don‘t fit the standard”, says GHØSTKID about the brand new track “Ugly” that is now available on all digital platforms.
The band comments:
“Nowadays it‘s hard to be different… and it‘s even harder to feel happy and free. People will always try to shape you in order to make them feel superior but nobody can tell you what is wrong and what is right when it comes down to your own individuality. This track is dealing with the struggle of being an outsider. You‘ll always be manipulated by others, you will never be accepted the way you are, so just don‘t give a f**k and never let them change you…”
The visualizer video that is going along with the release was created by GHØSTKID himself and is visible HERE.
For the digital release of “GHØSTKID (THE COMMENTARY ALBUM)” GHØSTKID teamed up with Nik Nocturnal and TankTheTech, two renowned content creators, to provide an in depth insight into the self-titled debut album that was released at the end of last year.
GHØSTKID on the idea: “An album commentary version is a great possibility to give the people some insights into the album and the message behind every single track. A little while ago I got in touch with Nik Nocturnal and TankTheTech, because I was always in love with their reactions. We became really good friends and it was a lot of fun to create this commentary version together. They did an awesome job and I‘m super happy to share this really personal experience with all of you.”
Nik Nocturnal comments: “It was an absolute pleasure being able to talk further in depth with Sushi regarding the new GHØSTKID album. Every song has its own unique identity and story. Hearing Sushi’s perspective on each track and how they were conceptualized brought a whole new meaning to the album which makes it just that much more enjoyable to listen to.”
TankTheTech adds the following: “When I was originally asked to do this, I was extremely excited and also surprised that they wanted to involve content creators from YouTube on a project like this. But knowing what I knew about Nik, and already having a relationship with GHØSTKID, it was clear the moment we all got together that this was going to work very well. Being able to sit with two other musical minds from different perspectives and really talk to GHØSTKID about his album, how he wrote it, and even bring up the stuff that we heard and noticed from our viewpoint was such a wild experience. I am super humbled that they asked me to be a part of this, and have to applaud GHØSTKID and his team for thinking outside the box and trying something new when it comes to a commentary album.”
Just recently GHØSTKID released a cooperation with the the mysterious artist IMHUMAN for “FØØL (INHUMAN Remix)”: https://youtu.be/X_n75XbA2jk
GHØSTKID’s music is a headlong dive into darkness and aggression. It aligns on new paradigms: baring its teeth while keeping a sense for catchy melodies. GHØSTKID is the new namesake of Sebastian “Sushi“ Biesler and a conspiracy of friends and likeminded allies who have come to a riot of their own.
In November of last year the band released their self-titled debut album to international acclaim and was nominated for “Best International Breakthrough Band” for the Heavy Music Awards (UK).

The only thing missing in their agenda were live shows to introduce the band to their new fans – until now. The band is currently playing selected shows and festivals:
Kingstar presents: GHØSTKID
Social Distance Shows 2021 Presented by Fuze, More Core
26.08.21 (DE) München – Backstage 27.08.21 (DE) Würzburg – Posthalle 28.08.21 (DE) Siegen – Bluestock Festival 29.08.21 (DE) Dortmund – Junkyard Open Air
Since GHØSTKID aren’t shy of exploring creative limits they are excited to release a very special co-operation with the overseer of a futuristic dystopian word: IMHUMAN. While “FØØL (INHUMAN Remix)” is available on all digital platforms already the matching video clip.
GHØSTKID himself comments: “A little while ago INHUMAN and I got in contact via Instagram and I directly fell in love with the dark and atmospheric sound. We had planned to re-release a track of my album as a remix for a while and he was the perfect choice for the job. The FØØL remix is a great symbiosis between our two worlds and I’m pretty sure that there will be some more projects in the future.”

GHØSTKID comments: “What we miss the most is playing live! Even if a social distance show has a different kind of energy this set of shows will be a reminder of how it feels to be on stage again. They are a great opportunity to give a little bit of support to those who struggle due to the pandemic such as clubs, crew and artists. We‘re really looking forward to this little tour and we will give our very best to make it unforgettable for you guys and girls!”
After successfully releasing his debut album on Century Media Records, GHØSTKID announces the re-scheduled dates for his first European Headline Tour in November & December 2021!
GHØSTKID comments:
Hey friends, i got some bad news…with a heavy heart i have to announce that i have to postpone my tour to the end of 2021. I really thought that we could keep the dates and as an artist you write a record to be on tour…i can‘t explain with words how frustrating this is for me but i try to stay positive. I will use the time to write new music for you and to make the live show even bigger and better!!! Don‘t let it bring us down ! We‘re already discussing some concepts for some live alternatives and hopefully we can play a few festivals in summer. We all miss it so much to be on stage…
All the tickets remain valid !!!! Love you all and hope to see you in 2021
