Ghost have been talking about replacing Papa Emeritus II since last May, with word coming earlier this year that the new Papa is, “the three-month-younger brother of GHOST’s previous frontman, Papa Emeritus II.” Whoever the ghoulish figure really is, the band just released a minute-long clip, officially introducing Papa Emeritus III, showcasing his fancy new costume (designed by B.

More details of the new Ghost album have come out – hopefully. The last time information on a new album leaked out (like the Meliora album title, producer Klas Ahlund, mixer Andy Wallace), the Ghost camp sarcastically replied with, “We are apparently releasing an album soon.

After the announcement of the addition of a new Papa Emeritus this summer to front the band, it was clear that info for their upcoming Ghost B.C. album was nearby and it happened unofficially a few days ago when Harddriveradio.com posted a note mentioning details about it, which they ended up deleting but can be read below: […]

According to Sweden Rock Magazine, Ghost B.C. will play the Sweden Rock Festival on June 4th, and will usher in Papa Emeritus III, […]

[youtube]http://youtu.be/d5pTSX8p-6c[/youtube] Fun fact: around the end of the year, the music industry slows down to the point where around December or so, there’s nothing but holiday music. Another fun fact: the news cycle slows down around then too. So we’re going to kill two birds with one stone and bring you “Hail Santa,” a YouTube parody […]
