To the Ghosts

To the Ghosts is the fifth studio album by American indie pop band Cults, released on July 26, 2024, through Imperial Records. It was written and recorded during the COVID-19 pandemic and is designed to look back at the band's past. Cults wrote the album at Brian Oblivion's apartment, with over 100 songs being written before narrowing the track listing and produced it along with Shane Stoneback. Primarily a synth-pop and art pop album that takes influences from pop and has been compared to shoegaze, To the Ghosts includes both pessimistic and optimistic themes. To the Ghosts was supported by the singles "Crybaby", "Left My Keys", and "Hung the Moon". Cults also released a music video for "Onions", which won the award for Best Alternative Video – International at the 2025 UK Music Video Awards. To the Ghosts received mostly positive reviews from music critics, who considered the album to be creative and noted its similarities to the band's previous work, although some thought that it left little impression.
