Album Notes

The Hungry Ghost (writer, musician, and digital artist Blake Chen) conceived his latest album in the midst of 5 years spent performing in the Detroit area, both as a solo act as well as a member of the band N2 Submission.

Sharing the stage with more experienced musicians in the city's many smoke-filled bars, Chen gradually developed his unique sound, a hybrid of the goth/industrial/trip hop influence prevalent in the scene and his own love of folk/country/blues music that he heard growing up.

Drawing from his experiences in this underground scene, Chen's songs offer glimpses into a world filled with exotic characters and enchanting mysteries... a tantalizing blend of truth and fantasy.


"This music is great and addicting. I love it like a drug!"
- Juvi, Okeechobee, FL

"The Hungry Ghost's self-titled debut LP is sparse and magical. Lyrics tell stories, beats imagine worlds without boundaries, and the words float above it all."
- Kyshah Hell, MorbidOutlook.com

"The lyrics are enchanting and mysterious and dark and just really cleverly crafted. The voices on the actual line "evil never dies" is just awesome, sends shivers down my spine and that's how I always can tell a great song."
- Liana, UK

Hungry Ghost will take away your hunger
author: amy k
This CD is amazing. A few years have passed and I still pull out this disc once a month and go to that other place. The way that the Hungry Ghost captures emotion on this CD is timeless. Beautifully dark and equally enchanting. Fantasy lyrics and soothing vocals. For those who love trip hop as well as goth, it is a perfect blend.

Alluring and hypnotizing
author: Mintykiss
This CD all I can say is one of a kind...you can sit and be in a different world and taken away for a while with his enchanting, hypnotizing and exotically different voice and sounds and beats. It's not a type you've probably evver heard before, and nowadays it's hard to find something different and unique. I know I'm glad I bought it and will definitely make an investment on this CD. What can you say, someone who can find a unique voice out there, and then be BEAUTIFUL and EXCELLENT at it...a talent any eye could catch....give this beautiful icy haunting voice and sounds a chance...;) ;)
