Hungry Ghost is the third studio album by Australian alternative rock band Violent Soho. It was released on I Oh You Records in September 2013.
See also: Hungry ghost. According to the band's frontman Luke Beardham, the title of the album and the song of the same name, originally referring to Chinese Buddhism, was taken from the book Culture Jam by Canadian civil activist Kalle Lasna and allegorically implies a person who, in an effort to fulfill his desire, loses himself. Boredam has also said Hungry Ghost "dealt with the spiritual skeleton we've become from this spoon-fed reality."[1]
