German band Ghøstkid introduces Metalcore with their own dark touch. Trap and numetal influences complement the cold industrial atmosphere, while beautiful melodies bring the listener as a counterweight to the other end of the emotional scale. “HOLLYWOOD SUICIDE” is the band’s second full-length released last March, which deals with the life of an artist, the climb to success and all the difficult and dark things behind it. Besides the great success with the two albums, the band is practically non-stop on tour, making themselves known around Europe and beyond. Our reporter Cristina had the chance to meet the band’s founder, singer Sebastian “Sushi” Biesler, known for his first singer work in Electric Callboy, and talk about the name of the band, their latest album and much more.
