Genesis Owusu Unveils Fresh Track ‘DEATH CULT ZOMBIE’
Fresh Release: "DEATH CULT ZOMBIE" by Genesis Owusu
Genesis Owusu has just dropped his latest single, “DEATH CULT ZOMBIE,” following an electrifying performance at Adelaide’s Harvest Rock festival. Available through Ourness, the new track features a powerful bass line that merges with Brit rock-inspired guitar riffs and intense drumming.
Thematic Exploration
With a distinctive sense of madness, the Ghanian-Australian artist delves into the dangers of rigid mindset indoctrination. His lyrics, released on Halloween, cleverly touch on relevant global issues, capturing the eerie essence of modern zombification in society.
In Owusu’s words, “For most people, the shaking up of what they consider to be true is too scary and inconvenient… Pride won’t let you be wrong, fear won’t let you be free." He articulates a warning about complacency: "The longer you sit in that delusion, the faster the zombification spreads through your body like a plague."
Unique Artistic Vision
This release highlights why Owusu, born Kofi Owusu-Ansah, is recognized as one of Australia’s most innovative artists. His raw energy and ventures into different styles shine through in his music.
“DEATH CULT ZOMBIE” diverges from the electronic-punk vibe of his earlier single, “PIRATE RADIO,” which marked his return after a two-year hiatus. “PIRATE RADIO” combines punk production with hard-hitting rap, offering a disturbing reflection of current societal fractures.
Accolades and Achievements
Throughout his career, Genesis Owusu has garnered significant acclaim, including seven ARIA Awards, two of which were for Album of the Year.
