Seattle’s Ghosts In The Graveyard Shares Video for Goth Rock Cover of The Afghan Whigs’ “Debonair”
Seattle-based darkwave outfit Ghosts in the Graveyard has released a goth-rock rendition of The Afghan Whigs’ “Debonair,” transforming the original’s seductive menace into heavier electronic-tinged territory. Fronted by Byron C. Miller and anchored by Paul Morgan’s assertive guitar work, the cover strips away genre boundaries by amplifying the song’s inherent danger through a deathrock lens. The accompanying video, directed by Miller and shot by cinematographer Ryan Purcell, captures the band performing in an intimate club setting, emphasizing raw audience-stage chemistry over conceptual flourish. The track serves as the closing piece for “Monsters for the Masses: Resurrected,” arriving October 2025 via Re:Mission Entertainment—a tenth-anniversary reimagining of the band’s 2016 album that follows their 2025 full-length “Absolute Death.” The current lineup, including keyboardist Kaylie Cortez and vocalist Shelly Smith, delivers the material with dramatic authority while preserving the original’s dangerous edge.
