EPITAPH RECORDS to Donate ALL of THE GHOST INSIDE’s Profits to the Band

by | Dec 14, 2015

Whoa… that’s incredible. In light of The Ghost Inside’s horrific bus crash last month, Epitaph Records announced that they’ll be donating all of The Ghost Inside’s profits to the band themselves.

Label founder and CEO Brett Gurewitz said,

Our hearts go out to our brothers, in the The Ghost Inside, who have endured a catastrophic bus accident, with devastating injuries. In light of this tragedy Epitaph has decided to donate all profits, from the sale of all The Ghost Inside albums worldwide, directly to the band — indefinitely. So, if you want to support The Ghost Inside, in their time of need, you can now do so by buying their music. Epitaph won’t make a profit while the band silently fight to rebuild their lives. We wish them a speedy recovery and return to health.

The Ghost Inside collided with an 18-wheeler outside of El Paso in November, totaling their bus and killing the drivers of both vehicles. The members of the band made it out alive, and are recovering.
