What's Hot

Really enjoying the vocals on this band, some great harmonies.  Don't be put off by the visuals, they're closer to a classic rock band than anything else.

  • Funnily enough I had a guitar student earlier who mentioned this band, as we were talking about certain bands who don't show their faces at gigs until they play, trying to create a "mystery" to their fan base so the topic turned to this band who wear the masks and stuff. Interesting sound as from first impressions I expected screamo drop tuned metalcore type riffs!

  • Yeah from seeing the masks I would've guessed they'd sound a lot heavier than they are.

    I’ve been a fan of these for a while, when I first heard them they struck me as Merciful Fate crossed with Blue Oyster Cult

    Met Tobias a few years back in Madrid. Had a good look at the first mask. I was stood next to James Hetfield who was singing every word.

    I never know quite what to make of them, the image and lyrics are so dark but the vocals and even the melodies are almost poppy.  I do quite like them though.

    The MySpace tracks and singles still sound great. And the song He Is is incredible. It' a tribute to Selim from The Devils Blood and really sounds like them.

  • I'm a fan, Meliora is a brilliant album start to finish. Really looking forward to the next one, I just wonder how the change of band members will affect it.

    I love Meliora. The previous album is certainly heavier, and it sounds like the next one could be too.

    I love this song as well.

    I don't know if this counts but:-




    Not sure if it's a cover or not but it's awesome.

    In my impression of a dope-head taking a deep drag on a roach....  "Wow.. that's some really good shit man!"  :)

    This was supposed to be their debut show but they ended up playing in Germany the night before.

    Absolutely love Ghost, saw them live last year and I'd highly recommend going to see them on the next tour.

    They've dropped the first single off their new album yesterday as well -

    I have to admit I listened to the new song after seeing it listed on Classic Rock Magazine's "Tracks of the Week" feature last week and thought I'd hate it but I actually surprised myself. It's quite cool. It's really not how I imagined it would be based on their image and the cover art etc.

    Have you heard "He Is"? Another great song completely different to what you would expect from their image.

    They really surprised me. When they first came about they were described as death metal (!?) and based on their image i made an assumption. 
    Later actually hearing them, i found i was completely wrong. Lots of great songs.
