Ashnikko Releases New Song “Smoochie Girl”
London-based American singer-songwriter Ashnikko released a new song “Smoochie Girl” on September 19, 2025.
The song is the fourth single off of their upcoming sophomore album “Smoochies”, which is set to be released on October 17, 2025 via Parlophone Records.
Ashnikko co-wrote the track with Tove Burman, and producer Slinger, who also produced the album.
Ashnikko said of the song, “I wrap myself up in steel plated bravado sometimes. I wanted to break from that and celebrate the fact that I am a sensitive lover girl. I’m like an open wound. It can be grotesque and painful butI ultimately love that about myself.”
They added, “Wrote this sticky little lover girl song with my faves Slinger and Tove Burman”- The new album comprises 15 tracks, produced by Slinger. It is their first album in two years since the 2023 album “WEEDKILLER”.
But according to Ashnikko, the album is a sequel to their debut mixtape “Demidevil”, which was released in 2021.
Ashnikko said of the album, “Smoochies feels like Demidevil's older sister. It's sexy, playful, and feminine, while toeing the line of grotesque and absurd. I feel like purse sediment so much of the time - like a mess of crumbs and gum in receipts and lipgloss that I've forgotten about - so the album feels like that too. This is the first where I've written very autobiographically, but at the core of it all is personal autonomy and joyful whimsy.” - source : Apple Music
