Ghost are one of the most popular new metal bands of the last decade. The Grammy-winning, #1 active rock song-having Swedish quintet (that just might have an almost entirely new lineup) have a hell of a summer planned as well, as they’ll be opening for Iron Maiden all summer long. As if opening for one of the most iconic metal bands at arenas for the Summer isn’t enough, the band have added dates around the Maiden show where they’ll be headlining.
The band have apparently been at work on the follow up to Meloria as well, so we might even get to hear some new music, depending on when the album is coming out. Here’s where you’ll be able to get your Ghost on this Summer if you have no interest in seeing them play with Maiden. Then again, if you have no interest in Maiden, you’re no friend of Metal Insider’s:
