[youtube]http://youtu.be/_SnIW2KffOQ[/youtube] The last we heard from Ghost, they were wondering if you could tell them about their supposed forthcoming album. And while there’s nothing on their website or social media about it yet, a late night TV ad has begun running that confirms the album name. A Metal Insider reader emailed us some cell phone shot footage […]

[youtube]http://youtu.be/mhqQ6jQ_0PU[/youtube] Last week, Behemoth’s Adam “Nergal” Darski posted a (since deleted) picture of himself and another gentleman with the caption “If you have ghosts… U have everything,” suggesting that it was a picture of Ghost’s frontman, Papa Emeritus II, without makeup. While it’s suggested that Swedish musician Tobias Forge may be the identity behind Papa, this […]

A few years back, speculation began to circulate that Papa Emeritus (and his “replacement” Papa Emeritus II) was actually Tobias Forge. While Ghost has still kept the real identities a secret (at least from the public, that is), it looks like we can thank Adam “Nergal” Darski for essentially confirming the rumors behind Papa’s real […]

Ghost surprised a few people in between their debut Opus Eponymous and their sophomore album, Infestissumam, by replacing singer Papa Emeritus with Papa Emeritus II. Never mind that the voice sounded the same, and the main difference was the color of the singer’s robes. Regardless, Metal Hammer caught up with one of the Nameless Ghouls at Sonisphere, […]

The always-polarizing Revolver Golden Gods Awards Show presented by Epiphone has been announced for Wednesday, April 23 in Los Angeles, and they’ve got some pretty legitimate acts playing this time around. Guns N’ Roses will headline the sixth annual event, with Axl Rose (aka the band’s only original member) receiving the ‘Ronnie James Dio Lifetime Achievement’ Award. […]

[youtube]http://youtu.be/6l2FEHr_Yzg[/youtube] Since they formed six years ago, many have wondered who Swedish occult band Ghost (or Ghost B.C., we don’t wanna get sued) is. And last year, we sort of got our first look via the Noisey documentary Ghost B.C. – The Olde One – Papaganda. It showed frontman Papa Emeritus II without his makeup, also […]

What to make of Ghost B.C – The Olde One – Papaganda, the first episode of a documentary about Ghost that premiered earlier today on Noisey? On the one hand, it’s a pretty entertaining and beautifully shot documentary about the Swedish sextet. On the other, you’re not going to find out all that much about […]

While Ghost B.C. will be touring with Deftones and Avenged Sevenfold in the fall, they have also announced a series of headlining off dates with supporting act Skeletonwitch. If you are around the Wisconsin, Ohio, or Tennessee areas and are upset that you weren’t able to see them the first time, fear not, they will […]
