Ghostemane releases new album ‘AM:FM’
Ghostemane releases his new album “AM:FM” on 23 October 2026 through Blackmage, featuring the singles “Zero Day” and “BucketList.”
US artist Ghostemane released his new album, “AM:FM”, on 23 October 2026 through Blackmage. The record was produced by Eric Ghoste, with contributions from longtime collaborators Kenneth Blume and Arthur Rizk, and includes the previously released singles “Zero Day” and “BucketList.”
Ghostemane’s own press materials list a 12-track sequence: “Alive!,” “Deus Ex Machina,” “Miazma,” “Zero Day,” “BucketList,” “Jupiter,” “Hyperdrive,” “Mean Girls,” “Cyberia,” “Get Gone,” “NSFW” and “Noose Knot.” Spotify and Apple Music both list “AM:FM” as a 13-track release. Both name a closing track, “A Fire in the Skye,” that does not appear in the press release’s own listing.
“AM:FM” is Ghostemane’s first full-length album since “ANTI-ICON” in 2020, following what his press materials describe as a five-year hiatus. “Zero Day,” released as the album’s first single, was produced by Kenneth Blume; Ghostemane produced “BucketList” himself. Quiet Cam filmed both singles’ videos and also documented two surprise shows Ghostemane played in Texas over the summer, at an abandoned tunnel network in Austin and an underground warehouse in Houston. In late September, Ghostemane hosted 75 fans at his FRAME 002 event, the second in a series of album listening and performance events, held at a former prison in central Florida.
Ghostemane marked the album’s release with a sold-out show at Market Hotel in New York City on 22 October 2026, and is scheduled to perform at Milkys in Los Angeles on 25 October.
