Ghost bride Brocarde launches debut album with jaw-dropping spit‑roast wedding‑dress stunt
Brocarde has announced her debut album Good Attendance At Sunday School with a dramatic visual reveal and the release of her fierce new single F.E.M.I.N.I.S.T.
Brocarde has never been one for subtlety, but her announcement for debut album Good Attendance At Sunday School may be her boldest statement yet.
The haunted rock provocateur unveiled the project with a jaw‑dropping image of herself spit‑roasted over open flames in a wedding dress. This symbolic rebirth sets the tone for the record’s raw, gothic intensity.
Arriving alongside the reveal is her explosive new single F.E.M.I.N.I.S.T., out March 24.
One of the heaviest tracks on the album, the song dives into the contradictions and pressures surrounding modern feminism.
Its video, filmed in the dungeon of Chillingham Castle — widely regarded as the UK’s most haunted fortress — amplifies the track’s dark, confrontational spirit.
Brocarde said: “I find elements of confusion and contradiction lay within the debate of feminism.
“Empowerment means different things to different people, and some use feminism as a way to assert their own beliefs. It’s the song I struggle with the most because it’s me trying to be someone I’m not — putting on a powerful front when inside I was crumbling.”
She added that the single’s cover art captures a moment of painful vulnerability, adding: “It was a moment of sheer pain in my life, again trying to portray the image of something that I’m not. You can see the sadness in my eyes.”
The album, out May 29 and available to pre‑order now, boasts serious rock credentials. Korn drummer Ray Luzier features on the record, with production from Chris Collier (Korn, Whitesnake, Mick Mars).
Vinyl editions are also available.
Described by Brocarde as the soundtrack to her life so far, the nine‑track collection charts her journey from confusion to self‑realisation.
The now‑infamous artwork — showing her pierced by a metal pole and suspended above fire — represents a symbolic shedding of her former self.
She said: “The imagery symbolises me crucifying a version of myself that I’m evolving from.
“Ten years ago I was lost. These songs became my outlet and shaped the woman I am today.”
The album digs deep into her mythology, including Haunted, the song she walked down the aisle to when she famously married the ghost of Victorian soldier Edwardo, and the blistering F*** You Anthem, written to banish him after their supernatural divorce.
Brocarde’s world has always blurred the line between performance art, paranormal storytelling, and rock theatre.
Since debuting with Last Supper in 2019, she's earned wide acclaim from fans and critics alike, with Whitesnake’s David Coverdale praising her electrifying presence.
Her ghost‑marriage saga — from Halloween wedding to spectral split — made national headlines and led to appearances on This Morning, Say Yes to the Dress, First Dates, and a string of paranormal features.
More recently, she conducted a ghost hunt at Download Festival and hosted a séance at Wacken Open Air in honour of Motörhead’s Lemmy.
With flames beneath her and phantoms behind her, Brocarde isn’t just releasing an album — she’s staging a resurrection.
