@@timeking6829 done!
Hero.
Thanks bro 🤘🏻
I remember listening to that on Myspace, saying to myself "damn, too bad that this type of band isn't much more popular". Couldn't believe that Ghost would go as far as it is nowadays, incredible journey.
I wish I heard them in 2010!
Sounding nothing like this so it's not the same thing
Well, they only became popular because they don't sound like that anymore and just focused on the old generic rock formula for posers
Very deep meanings to EVERYTHING Tobias does❤❤
@@AmandarhammosYou realize fans are listening to ALL of their albums, right? Tumblr alone still goes insane for Opus Eponymous.
Holy shit. Tobias brought this power house so fucking far… it’s incredible. A lesson in rock history
Yeah, just wish there could've been even more info or social media interactions from the band and about their growing path...granted that was part of their "mystique" and anonymity back then🤷♂️
I’m so glad that the demo tape is still out there on the internet. I always find it fascinating to listen to how much the songs evolved over time.
after watching the 1 hour long Sweden podcast with Tobias, and knowing his backstory with his brother and how much he fought for, this man is my hero now, thank you for existing Tobias Forge.
Wait which interview?
@@InGhostwetrust666 th-cam.com/video/vB4GLIIrjhA/w-d-xo.html this one
His wife and his late brother are the MVP’s of this group
@@pamelqtaylor8335yesss ❤
These are bloody good for demos, but I cannot for the life of me get over the fact that the cover art looks like Papa if he were a Pokemon ^-^;
Indeed
I was thinking it's more of a child Papa. Like the boy who played the Papa in the Cirice video but younger. Demo=early, early=young.
I’m so unimmersed by this comment
What has been seen...
Papamon
I love how simple and raw this is. Especially that cover. I want it on a shirt. I might do that it's very easy.
@nabokov orbust idk ive never made a shirt
idk why i said very easy
@@zachsmith3 Depending on what state you live in; go to the mall. You'd be amazed how commonly accessible original shirts are now.
Holy shit. Elizabeth is heavy as fuck here
Death Knell sounds so much more minimal and scary as a demo. It gives off scary tape you find in the woods vibes.
It is impecable ❤ I am really impressed
5:27
The way he said bathory... something about that got me. It was beautiful....
god SAME
@nabokov orbust what?
This should be protected in a museum 🖤
How great is his voice back in this time…awesome
Why do I like this so much more? The underproduced sound makes them sound more like an amateur band that every amateur band wants to be.
Link de la foto
They were an amateur band here...
this is one of the best demo albums ive ever heard. i love how clear tobias’s vocals are, and how theyre not overpowered by the instrumentals. thank you for uploading this
tobias’s voice is so beautiful
It’s really amazing how talented Tobias is, first to completely make this demo himself (and basically all of their music) Also how he keeps himself in a lower register for the older Papa I and then continue to shape his voice to sound younger as the characters got younger.
well i mean hed been a musician for like 10 years it would be odd if he didnt know how to make a demo
@@MortanAMrk You would be surprised how many musicians are still inept by the time they've been playing for 10 years.
Actually “Alpha” (Simon Soderberg) recorded, mixed and produced the entire first album and any demos, and a demo version of Infestissumam. He did the guitar parts, he was the lead guitarist since Ghost inception.
@@iblisdiabolus1752 true, I think they just meant he wrote most of it, and also they did say “basically” implying not actually all of it and just most of it if that makes sense.
Merciful Fate
Chorus of Elizabeth is so less processed - you can really hear him say 'Bathory'
How the hell are you verified?
@@gavinkyle9252 right?
Ehm... In the final version you can hear, too xd
@@leonardocaychocasani750 ok - I deeply apologise for not writing 'you can hear him more clearly in the demos'
@@gavinkyle9252 people seem to get really annoyed by this o_O - I'm not sure why it happened, but I believe it might be to do with my old Google + account, when they were trying to force everyone to use their 'real name' I talked to them and said I am me, and showed them my other accounts (soundcloud etc.) - all I wanted was to not have them force me to change my Google + account name, but I believe whatever they did then led to TH-cam being verified (as Google+ and TH-cam were once in some ways the same login accounts I think).
Can’t stop listening to Ghost. TF is a brilliant musician! 🤘
Same here 🤘🏼😎👻🖤
Me neither! Hi from Brazil!
I'm addicted to ghost big time
@@maddyboombaddybaddy6532 hows the addiction? mines just began
@@Giantsxbox I just am so fascinated at all the little sounds and melodies in every song
That Elizabeth is insane
like insainity cluase
I adore how he sings the word 'bathory' in the song 'elizabeth'.
Thank you Tobias! For the best band of 21st century
LMFAOOOO
saw these guys with volbeat a few months ago. didn’t know any songs from them but they put on a good ass show i had to go through some of their albums
I love this version of Elizabeth, so much more aggressive 🤘🏼🤘🏼
I'm the oddball who tends to like the demos more than the final versions, just my punk/garage upbringing I guess. This is no exception.
Same way. And I hate when I can no longer find the demo versions or the more raw alt versions that were on that other releases
As a musician, I enjoy the journey to the final product. I love thinking about how some sat down and said " you know what this needs here". Its almost like this is a different band and Ghost did a badass cover.
Well as far as demo's go this is the clearest and most similar to the official recording of any demo I've ever heard... But that being said the majority of demo's I've heard are from black metal bands where they recorded with a potato and all you can really hear is tons of noise, sounds that sound like people dragging tables along floors above you, or punching things while underwater, because they're so muffled.
So yeah this Is kinda strange for me that it sounds so similar to the songs in the first album. Honestly the really rough demo's are probably more interesting because they're more unique. But this is interesting too!
Prime Mover is amazing! I love hearing his vocals without them being overpowered by the music. Hands down one of my absolute favorites! 🖤👻
Yaaas
Same lol
Prime Mover and Death Knell are SUPER underrated. Pure classics.
2:03 - 2:18 with they'd keep that double bass, sounds sick
that’s… in the album version too?
@aquaticrooster there's no double bass on the album version.
I APSOLUTLEY LOVE HOW ELIZABETH SOUNDS
the 'tism is really goin crazy over this
a year later and this statement till stands im having a ball with this
I don’t think I ever loved a demo more than I love this one. But death knell is by far the best. If he were to sing this again, oh boy.
The OG Ritual hits hard
Wow, Elizabeth sounds awesome. Much more agressive.
I'm weird, but I find these and the acoustic versions I can find better than the versions that come out for release. Wonderful to find these. More please, if available! I love how clear Tobias' voice sounds.
every year, at least once in a few months, i re-listen this album. Stunning mix of garage and cult theme. I will actually believe, that it was an album from some cultist band, that was found deep in burned and sieged by feds house. 10/10
These demos really catch that late 60s metal vibe
Elizabeth is so more agressive, amazing !!!
Damn this is good for a demo I love this raw version. His voice is beautiful clear back then. Thank you for the upload.
This demo album goes beast mode🤘🤘 I first discovered Ghost BC back in 2013 when their 2nd album came out. Saw the thumbnail of Papa Emeritus II for their video of Secular Haze and I fell madly in love with them. The way the video was made to look like an old TV show appearance and the swirling circus sounds od the keyboard blew my mind.
The Mask
That’s how I became a fan! :)
Ghost*
I also became a fan due to Secular Haze!
@@MelioraSR At that particular time (Infestissumam), they had to go by Ghost B.C. in the US because another band held the trademark to the name Ghost at the time. That band allowed Ghost to use the name before they released Meliora, and the rest is history.
@@loganmclarry Yes, I know that.
Thx for these, man. Unlike the majority of demos, that one will listen to in retrospect with a sort of morbid curiosity digging into the past of a band that has become famous, but that are actually too painful to listen to more than once (if we care to be honest and objective), this is great material and very enjoyable. Musically it's very obvious that Tobias has created a totally unique sound and musical landscape.
Why is it that when I find old ghost stuff, I always get nostalgic??? It says this was recorded in 2008, I was 3 years old, yet I’m feeling really nostalgic over this??? Either way, I love these demos. I love Ghost’s sound in general and it’s hard to pick a favorite album, but there’s just something so neat about hearing an unpolished rough draft of a song. These sound so amazing :)
05 gang!! I'd love to have this in a casette or something, it totally has the cover of a niche album you'd find at a flea market or something lol
Oh shit '05 boys. (Or girls, or other!)
@@mknacho4187 Hello fellow uncle jobel fan.
im right there w u
i was BORN in '08 and this feels nostalgic, probably because it reminds me of how far ghost has come since then. ive been a fan for just over a year now and its INSANE how much they have grown over the span of 12 months, and looking back over recording of era 1 & 2 and seeing how small their crows were compared to now is just breathtaking.
Holy shit, crazy to think this existed when I was still in highschool. I'm 26 now and barely found out about these guys right before popestar came out
I went to their second Swedish show ever at a small club in the city of Visby back in 2011. VERY minimalistic and Amazing.
Almost makes you wish you’d discover them when in high school. Same age as you
I was 5 when this was released, wish I found them sooner than a month ago! Amazing, talented band!
I kick myself for not sticking with them from the start. I first heard them through That Metal Show when Opus was one of the guys album if the week or something. I liked it but I was like 17 and still naive and the whole satanic thing deterred me. Wasn’t until I heard Cirice on the radio when Meliora came out and now they are probably my favorite band now.
@Megan don't feel bad a co worker introduced me to them when infestiatum was out. I was hooked on secular haze. I was 40 something then 49 now and have the collection on cd and vinyl! These guys rock!🤘
Compositionally and sonically, the shadow of Blue Oyster Cult looms large in the Ghost sound.
Hm, in comparison with newest Ghost's songs it sounds much more atmospheric and even "unholier"
Hauntingly beautiful! 👻🖤
Its because opus fit more in the metal genre while prequelle is a classic rock album.
The band is kinda Bowiesh, I love how each phase/album has a different taste
@@meatz666 Fr!
I think that’s mostly personal preference/bias speaking. Even now as of Impera Ghost retains its atmosphere. What changed was what time period of music is being paid homage to. You probably just prefer early heavy metal to 80s arena rock.
Elizabeth definitely has that King Diamond vocal thing going on.
Thankfully not as screechy and corny though.
@@T-roccBABY it's an aquired taste but King Diamond has some tracks with good vocals, a dangerous meeting by mercyful fate is a classic for instance
@@AgentLemmon I've tried so many times but it just doesn't do it for me, no matter how many attempts I just can't haha. Live show might be fun though
@@T-roccBABY same, I've gone back and visited king diamond so many times but something about it is just off-putting, I can't really explain it
Oh. we're all gonna trash King Diamond on this reply thread. Huh?
Shame on you.
Love this band. The more I hear the more I like. Awesome.
I feel "Black Sabbath" over here
I thought that cool huh
i'm only halfway through Ritual, but OH this is filthy, so good!! has a vibe i can't describe, but i think everyone feels :) absolute joy to listen to, köszi!!
Ghost my Drug 😍😍😍😍😍😍
If in a bad mood, blast up some Ghost! 👻🖤
Amazing for demos. ❤️😀❤️ Thank you so much for uploading these sending much love ❤️
elizabeth sounds almost like a black metal track ILOVEIT
I love elizabeth but I gotta admit the demo version here sounds soo danm epic than the one we have
It's almost a mercyful Fate clone band
Tobias is a Unholy Gifted Master of Music.. I fucking love Ghøst Ω
How have i never heard these?!?!
Love this demo so much! Long live Ghost
Oh how far we have come Tobe
He deserves it
How did i not find this before?! I love the sound,Elizabeth sounds better than the cd version! And his vocals sound really good.Impressive that he did all that himself!!
he didn't do it all himself.
@@cyberbug800 he did
@@matmatmatamatvsjdjfh no, he was working with his friends
@@cyberbug800 he wrote and recorded the album by himself
@@matmatmatamatvsjdjfh no he didn't.
This was the first recording I'd ever heard of theirs back when they were just getting mentioned in magazines, I thought the vocals on the first track sounded like a mini version of King Diamonds style at a lower octave. And that's a good thing for me. Overall they actually remind me of Arthur Brown. Also good.
BLESS YOU FOR POSTING THIS 🙏🏻
Fckn AWESOME as usual with this band..
and noooooobody believed me in 2010 in the 10th grade when i told my friends, watch this is gonna be one of the biggest bands in the world in 10 years. Impera was 2022 so i was CLOSE lol
Thank you for sharing this!
This is raw. Loved it
Holy shit. That Elizabeth is so fucking good!
Uff sus inicios
Prime mover and death knell are my favorite songs of all time and I like the ones on here btter.
the riff on ritual during the nemesis bit is way more crazy
Yes!! The double bass makes it hit harder.
They have to back to this style...
Some day I hope to find a recorded version of "Satans Natt" which was the first working title for "Stand By Him". Judging by the name it's probably got Swedish lyrics and I'd love to hear those.
Yes, the lyrics were originally written in Swedish. I’m not sure if a recording was ever released though.
Like Stand by Him was originally going to be called "Stand by Her."
@@PapaEmeritus_4evrno that’s He Is. It was going to be She Is or Lieh
@@ellabella6099 Also Stand by Him was going to be Stand by Her
@@PapaEmeritus_4evrahhh now that I didn’t know thank you ☺️
This demo is everything.
Perfection 😁
Amazing, mesmerizing!
this is so awesome
essas versões demos são muito boas
tranqui comenzó su carrera...ppffftt¡¡¡grososs
Elizabeth sounds almost like the album version pitched up. It's not, but it's very very close to that
I imagine how Tobias recorded this at “home studio” with Simon (alpha)
Love the so much!
I really love the demo it’s really fantastic 😍😍😍😍😍
this is better ... I can understand every word
This band sounds great! I hope they did well, they look very promising.
😂😂
As versões demo são tão boas quanto as de álbum. A voz do Tobias é linda demais.
Isso pq os haters dizem que ele não sabe cantar 🙄
dá uma atmosfera melhor nessa versão.
Em alguns momentos nem parece que é o tobias que ta no vocal, sei não hein... mas de qualquer forma. PUTA DEMO LINDA KRL!
Verdade!!
Elizabeth demo version is better than released
It's really interesting to hear the demos and the released songs overlapping each other.. its amazing to hear them together! ( I'm using this video and Spotify to do this ) But they play out so well! I recommend trying this if you can!
Love the double on the kick drum
Listening to this on Halloween & an ad for the bible pops up!!! 🤘😜😁
Death Knell, I can feel EzDrummer here :D
Holy shit, I never had realized that...
I think that at least the basskick of the Ritual song maybe from a pack of EzDrummer called Vintage Rock. But I am not sure.
Damn it. Prime Mover is so good..
Perfect
yess ghost i love ghost
It sounds like a mix between Mercyful Fate and Blue Oyster Cult. I love it!
So for Ritual, I think the vocals are better but I think the official instrumental is way better
Ritual ♥️♥️♥️ love his vocals
This feels pretty much like the Ghost ensence compared to the newest albums, i mean , they are absolutly great, but i feel like this is the real Ghost concept
much , much better than his very first demo , which was not convincing at all !!! these tunes sounds even heavier and crushier than the first lp versions ...
I listen to this album almost every week or a while. It sounds so good and complete. Earlier, i was angry, that Ghost never will do something similar. But today i have understood, how good this thing in its certain status. It shows all the beauty of this band. Also, i have made a copy of this beauty for my walkman - works 100% better then digital listening.
Hell Ghost [: 🤘
Sou fã da banda desde 2013 e nunca parei pra escutar essa demo. Eu acho as musicas aqui bem mais agressivas que na versão final. Esse cru da demo da uma cara ainda mais sombria pra banda
what it feels listening to the finished product: opus eponymous released art cover
what it feels to listen to the demo tapes: this image on this video
honestly it feels so weird listening to these demo tapes cause i constantly feel like somethings missing it feels like amnesia or if i just lost a limb but i can still feel that its there like a... "GHOST" limb
This Shost band rips!!!! New fan over here
Shost☠️
their guitar tones are better than on the final tracks
Merciful Fate. I like how he even looks like King Diamond on Prequelle. That said…..i love Ghost. Always will
