Ashnikko is genre-bending royalty, supercharging their debut album Weedkiller with punchy singles such as “Cheerleader” and the sunny groove “Worms.” Standout single “You Make Me Sick!” kicked off the entire Weedkiller era, and it was unforgettable.

(Dora Jar Remix).” Dora Jar “peeled back the thorny parts of it to show the sad guy behind the screaming and… Read more »

GHØSTKID has announced a new album, Hollywood Suicide, and dropped the first single from the record, “FSU.” The new full-length comes out on March 22 via Century Media Records, ahead of their upcoming spring tour with Black Veil Brides, Creeper, and Dark Divine. The post-hardcore act embodies an edgy and (positively) offensive realness that hasn’t been in the scene for a bit. Dramatic make-up, masks at times, but overall, they appear like varieties of the undead, especially in the music video for the new single. All of which makes GHØSTKID stand out as new proverours in the genre. Vocalist Sebastian… Read more »
