I am thoroughly relishing every drop of schadenfreude that seeps from this whole situation. ? Never a fan of them?

Yeah Arch has been fairly outspoken over the years about how overrated Ghost is and how there are so many better "retro" style metal bands out there. And I kind of agree tbh.

I saw them way back at Roadburn 2011. I knew there was a buzz about them but didn't really know anything else about them, and I thought they were ok/good. Decent live show, but nothing really remarkable on the songs front. I can understand the hype on the Metallica forum, because y'know, James wore their shirt, but I can't fathom their overall popularity. Whatever, they are catchy and obviously fill a niche that is too small for my tremendous cock. (That's how we forum here, right?) Is Wockanocka says, I much prefer, say, Sabbath Assembly (at least the version with Jex Thoth, who fronted them in a way that was kinda spooky and absolutely compelling, and not just because she's gawgiss, though she did use that to great effect). But I digress. I fairly quickly found Ghost's schtick kinda tiresome, and while it's pointless to begrudge the attention that an (imo) over-rated band gets, as if more (imo) meritorious bands would get that attention if they didn't exist... I kinda do.

New lineup is killing it right now. Recording for the new album starts in exactly one month. Can't wait!

Maiden still putting on a good show + Ghost is a big bonus I was going to go but it was between that and Metallica because of money (thanks Metallica, between tickets/parking/gas I spent close to $300.00) so I chose Metallica. I've seen Ghost a few times on this tour and Maiden is mainly playing a lot of new stuff, which I like but it's not something I need to see. Metallica barely comes here anyway so I had to see them because who knows if they will ever come back.

Book of Souls songs I really enjoyed live though, some mates thought the songs dragged on a bit live but maybe they hadn't absorbed the album fully yet like I had

James couldn't get a better spot? lol. So weird to see him as just some dude at a show, surprised he didn't put on ghost makeup to stay anonymous.

I loved seeing one of my musical heroes air drumming to one of my favourite songs by some other musical heroes of mine. : D

Fucking amazing performance of Square Hammer and Monstrance Clock with a full choir. Also today is the first day of recording for the new album! Very excited.

Yes...boobs. I'm glad I will get to see him one more time (I guess?). Looking forward to Papa IV though! Here's hoping for a sinister dude.

I thought it was alright but the most interesting thing about it was just hearing the song that stripped down and to hear Papa's vocals in a different way. I don't mind her voice in it but what I did mind was the drum beat during parts of the chorus in that version. I love that artwork by the way. I love how it's colored. I'm glad I managed to get myself a copy of the Square hammer/He is picture disc.

If it lost the drums I think it would be a good rendition.

I have to say this is the best band i discovered lately. I have heard this the first time about 6months ago. I have listened to the 3 albums (there are only 3, right?) and i love (almost) every song. Now i listen to the band daily and that is rare for me. I listened to metallica and nirvana for the last 15years daily and now finally something else to listen to. I am very difficult to find something that i like (music). Thank you ghost!
