Imagine if Ghost didn't exist - finding this on a random, unmarked VHS tape in a cave or some shit.
BlackSea I’d assume some college kids made this, honestly.
The guitars they are using would give away the date
BlackSea hoping it’s porn. But better
In the basement of a church
I'd be like: "Wtf is this band? I wish it was famous to truly know who they are....."
I will always love Ghost for looking like a Norwegian black metal band, then sounding like something you'd hear in the background of a Scooby-Doo movie. Never, ever change!
Heard that
I didn’t like them at first because of this song but now I totally appreciate it! The weird clash of the look vs the sound works for me.
and then they just sing about rats and sex
@@tomasrutar2092 the perfect band
They sound very 60s. Cool!
Why is no one talking about how amazing the drums are? Seriously, he's tearing them up back there
Yeah their second drummer Aksel Holmgren is truly ambidextrous and a killer drummer all round!
Their keyboardist is tearing it up also
Ong bro
@@karlsmith2570Took the words right out of my mouth! Hell, they keyboarding sounds like that of a circus of the damned!
So true even more on elizabeth
Ha ha! I haven’t seen this video since we made it ten years ago. Just looked it up now to show my girlfriend. Feels awesome to read the comments about the look. I’m the cameraman who made it look so shoddy! Our idea the whole time was to make it look like lost footage from some crappy tv show in the 70s. It was so fun to make!
We love the whole vibe, you did a great job!! Hope you are doing well
Ghost isn't as good as it was back then!
@@a_unknown_ghoul good for you ig? I still like them
I am recently starting to listen to Ghost and I am not lying that when I say that thanks to this video and another one, I really thought they were a super old band,I was really surprised to find out that they are from 2010 hahaha you really did an amazing job selling that illusion of "old band".
@@a_unknown_ghoulthat's the case with every band and that's okay
Either Papa has a seductive voice or I'm just prone to loving the voice of an evil dude from Sweden, I am thinking it is both.
O fato de ser assustador é o que faz a gente gostar no meu caso né rs é intrigante e sexy ao mesmo tempo
You ought to love the voice of Barbara Lerner Spectre 'of' Sweden. She hopes to turn Sweden into Swedenistan and wants native Swedes to die out. Spectre = Ghost, goul...
Hjerte Verke amazing how even mentionig sweden can bring out all the trolls calling it swedistan. Don't you think bringing up completly irrelevant political stuff to a music video is weird?
@@TheI3lackPredator I'm not Hjerte Verke, BUT people are going to do what some people do, we can't stop them, just let them talk I guess. We don't have to agree though.
amazing voice
The shoddy camerawork is what really sells it to me. A lot of music videos use a VHS effect, but don't go all the way, so you end up with something that's arranged, choreographed, lit, shot and cut like a typical 2020 video with a filter slapped on. This one set and two cameras really impress me! They totally created a feel that only the music or the guitars would give it away that it isn't lost footage or something.
I agree, it's amazingly authentic, everything from the unsteady zooming to the shift from one object to the next, like the cameraman suddenly realizes there's something interesting just out of picture. The 70's purple orange colors and the pentagonal prisms from the candlelights just gives me the retrochills⚡🔥
RAHHHH(good)
It's not shoddy IMO, it reminds me of late sixties.
Something you'd see from "Smothers Brothers", it's got that 'recorded live in Burbank feel'. Pretty sure this video was done that way on purpose.
I am convinced they used actual old cameras, I have no evidence but no doubt either.
Same! I liked the camera work too. They need to bring it back.
I love the part at 1:38 when it zooms in on Papa's face and the lighting changes so you can't see his eyes. He looks so badass and creepy
Yes, I love it too
Ghost has been around for centuries, we just didn't know it
One century
They are before chirst 😇
@@alipie1726 Concept behind their image is eternal, that's genius as fuck.
hahahahahahah
The bloodline has not been broken for nine millennia. My father was Papa, his father, his father's father, his father's father's father, his father's father's father's father's father... His father... - Papa Nihil
3:49 Cameraman be like "Fuck I forgot how to zoom in. I'll just run up to him."
Wade k 21 I'm laughing way too hard at your comment
And yet i love the effect
i Love the VHS effect
I kind of got the impression that they're supposed to look like they're on one of those old variety shows from the 60's. Like Ed Sullivan.
YourGamGam tbh same
I think they pulled it off very well, love the irony
Too bad some people dont see that and are put off by the "bad quality" of the video :-/
I think this might have been filmed on a high end VHS camcorder to be honest with you
There wasn't vhs' in the 70's.
no thanks
I agree. I always thought the way old film looked was much more visually pleasing.

I discovered Ghost a bit more than a week ago and I'm totally obsessed with them
Better late than never! Welcome to the obsessive world of Ghost. Been here for so long (2014) and I’m still hooked
That´s the way it goes for all of us!
I like your name.
@@Felix_Effex thanks I like yours too
@@felixnotacat7687how's it going after all this time?
I like how this is filmed like some weird home video. It's as if someone found this tape in their attic and decided to put it up on TH-cam.
I was thinking like an old church performance tape.
+flamingchicken44 Oh yeah, that works better lol
***** I have no doubt about that lol
Look up Jesus is A Friend of Mine by Sonseed and behold the set.
Looks like the early Sabbath videos.
I remember seeing this for the first time and being THOROUGHLY confused. It just popped up one night when I was watching a bunch of music videos on TV, and I was enthralled from that moment. I looked into the band and found out they were releasing Infestissumam in about a month or so. 7 years later, I am so happy I found this band, they shaped me into the person I am right now.
Holy crap where were you watching music videos on tv?!?!?! I gotta know!!!
@@mattamongtheashes1206 reminds me of watching MTV channel as a kid and them playing full music videos.
@@mangomania7321
Kids..there was pbs ..teletunes
The year is 2022. I am STILL laughing at the fog rolling in and then Papa II just slowly scooting backwards. It just makes me LOSE it!
That being said, this is one of my favourite music videos of all time. It's perfect. I LOVE getting to watch the bassist play the whole time!!
My favorite band either. I guess the Devil really is the master of music.
this is what got me into Ghost. i kinda wish they kept that "band from the 70s that you heard of, but never really listened to yet" theme going.
@@waltermoldren4991 Me too, the entire Nosferatu vibe was nice while it lasted, now it's just a pop band, and the "church" elemental is gone.
@@Beardshire I saw them live on rats tour and the church aesthetic was definitely still present... I'm thinking they'll go back soon
Yeah Linton Rubino was quite the excellent bass-player and son of Mauro on keys ,both of them are very much missed!
This music video is just everything!!
It took me until 2022 to discover this band and I honestly wish I knew them sooner!
Their songs, the band’s lore, the “hidden” identities-
This band is just my pride and joy!
Same for me
Welcome to the cult.... I mean family 😅 heh
What a good find! Enjoy your experience pouring through a treasure trove.
Big fucking goddamn same.
Me too man, only two months ago, and damn i love them
Legit one of the coolest music videos ive ever seen the grainy 70s filming makes it look so old school i fuckin love it this band is just beyond kickass wish i had found them earlier
I actually thought they were a 70's band when I found this video.
Me to
It's definetely never too late to discover them, ive seem them live for the 3th time last week and i did like them the first 2 times, but now they're like one of my favourite bands, the static satanic pope was ok, but the frontman as 'cardinal copia' really does it for me and musically it was also amazing, in overal kickass show 😍. Ghost seems to produce better and better music, i think their latest album is the best and that's very rare for me so i'm looking forward for new music!
It's more an 80s aesthetic than it is 70s.
@@shantheman6879 being an older bloke definitely a 70's vibe almost like 'Hammer Horror' film made in England starring Christopher Lee or ,Blue Oyster Cult vibe which GHOST are fans of btw :)
Whoever made this video spent A LOT of time studying the idiosyncrasies of rock music videos from the 70s. The camera shots and zooms, going in and out of focus. The stage and lighting, etc;
Like a weird dream like version of Don Kirshners Rock Concert.
Well done!
director Amir Chamdin
Next act up: The Sweet!
Baantu Sikorski They really did, & it was probably Tobias tbh. & Idk if it’s just me, but the layout of the separate raised platforms & stuff behind them & the general feel of this video reminds me ALOT of The Doors’ video for Touch Me.
My thoughts exactly
It reminded me of Sabbath on TOTP
i remember being a kid and seeing Ghost by the first time on RockInRIo years ago and getting scared seeing Emeritus II.Who knows years later i would be addicted to it....
Is Papa Nihil actually gone?
@@re7alia7or sadly (or thankfully,since he killed the other papas) hes gone.
@@re7alia7or I think so, but I think he's still gonna be part of the chapters in a way, maybe his funeral and then yeah I don't know lol😂
@@harbinger7115 wait he didn't though lol it's his own children, the nameless ghoul killed them
I just love how he looks like he was plucked out of a different realm, like from the film reel of an old horror movie for example, and was dropped into the middle of a rock concert deciding to look around saying, "fuck it", immediately dominating his new domain
i really dont understand why Ghost are hated by alot of people. from a musical and visual standpoint, they are one of the most important bands of the 21st century.
It was the same for Lordi, it is a gimmick but there's nothing wrong with that, as long as the music comes first the look adds to it, ABBA, David Bowie, KISS and many others.
I think the 80's and early 90's proved that Kiss is more than just a gimmick band.
I think It's for the following (but don't quote me on that):
1: Metal elitist/snobs hate it, cause It's DIFFERENT (like, BABYMETAL).
2: It's a "gimmick" (like, KISS).
something like: whaaa i cant put a label on it
+Pucho_23Paradox Or because they're Satanic and satanists have an image of sacrificing shit. It's truly a disgrace. Satanism isn't as bad as modern people make it seem. It's no different than Christianity.
the cheap public service quality works beautifully! i could imagine seeing this on the telly in the middle of the night as a kid and be genuinely terrified.
@Cult Mechanicus i expected at least one wanker with a comment like that. 'terrified' doesn't mean i'd be put off by it. i grew up on troma flicks, all things splatter and horror, but non-graphic and often psychological stuff would give me nightmares. if i happen to catch a video like this at night i'd probably think i was being introduced to an actual cult, i'd be terrified but deeply intrigued.
ALL MAKT ÅT TENGIL!!!
*VÅR BEFRIARE*
Damn my man. That is Probably the best way of putting this video into words. And personally I most likely wouldn't get nightmares per say, but It would sure as hell give me a chill down the spine as a young lad.
@@Soggyliquid Exactly! I'd end up obsessing, and trying to learn as much about it as I could, and probably end up hooked for life. In the best way possible.
He has the most beautiful voice I’ve ever heard
Ghost is so ahead of their time, this will be popular in the 60's
They have their own style, I respect that.
You should stfu :).*****
***** Why the hell would you come to a video just to comment hate about it, smh...
***** Oh sorry, the op complimented this band and then you told them to stfu so I thought you were complaining about what lloyd said but I guess someone deleted some of their comments. pardon my foul language and false accusations.
Lloyd Nix I don't
MayhemThrashDeath Why not
Ghost is more addictive than cocaine
Cocaine is a hell of a drug - Rick James
#Facts! I recently discovered the band and now I simply cannot get enough.
Sure is not
Are they more addictive than opiates?
@@craigbrock847 I think so, yes!

That's a good one haha
That’s not a bad idea
The Bass player is phenomenal.

you're welcome, but I'm a woman - craving for Papa, hahaha :P
That was Simon Söderberg, now he isn't in the band.
Jorge Adrián Simon was Alpha not Water
Ghost is way more evil, and haunting sounding than a giant majority of black metal bands.
***** That is a valid statement if you only ever listened too the mainstream black metal bands.
Besides, how do you decide on how evil a band is?
JohnDiabol International Evil Determinant (IED) - how unreadable their logo is. With this measure they are quite good fellas
***** I would say they are more doom metal with lyrics similar to black metal
Right and these six guys are musically inclined and are doing what they want to do musically I'm. A fan of these guys and so are a lot of metal bands!
Brittney Stone they have a bit of mystery with the lead singer changing each time.....it might be a bad idea if they can't keep the line going or worse we end up with much to young lead singers....
This is the best song on the album. Kinda sounds like creepy carnival music.
This song makes me feel an emotion that isn’t real.
I'm a 42 year old dude and I'm truly digging these guys! They have a very unique sound that I like very much! They have a Sabbath, Danzig, Maiden, Gorgoroth, the Doors etc..... Type fucking sound! wTf!
+Spyder Fweek I'm 40 and agree...never been into black metal, but really do liek their sound. They are gonna be at rock on the range in columbus ohio in the spring...might have to check em out live.
+Spyder Fweek I´m 50 and have been listening to metal all my life. I love this band! I´ll be seeing them next week live. I am REALLY looking forwrd to it!
+Spyder Fweek 43 year old male old school metalhead here. Just discovered yesterday and can't stop listening. They offer every single sound I have enjoyed in my life to date. I can't get over it!
+Mike Carter , I understand dude! These guys are truly unique!
+joseph ruzomberka They are really, really not black metal.
I am just discovering them and I love black metal, just pointing out though whatever genre these guys are (such unique sound/music!) they're not black metal.

You know that the fog is here omnipresent
When the diseases sees no cure
You know that the fog is here omnipresent
When the intents remain obscure
Forevermore
Weave us a mist
Fog weaver
Hide us in shadows
Unfathomable wall-less maze
A secular haze
You know that his son is near omnipotent
When she sees eye to eye with spears
You know that his son is near omnipotent
When youth and innocence disappear
Forever lost
Weave us a mist
Fog weaver
Hide us in shadows
Unfathomable, wall-less maze
A secular haze
He is divinity omniscient
Seeing the world revolve with spite
The surge of humanity oblivious
To the divine whom bringeth light

Come, mist eternal

Come, secular haze

They ARE real metal, just a smooth sounding metal. I LOVE GHOST anyway, who cares IF someone else doesn't get it?
See you're awesome for saying that
Ghost is amazing, and they are my favorite band........but they are not metal. I am a metal-head, and ghost fits the genre in as far as the lyrics, but they are not a metal BAND. Their first album was metal, and there were a few metal tracks on Infestissumam, as well as Meloria and Prequelle. That said, they are far too diverse and complex to give a label like “metal” to. Just look at songs like “missionary man”, “if you have ghost”, “he is”, “See the light”, and “dance macabre”, just to name a few. They are all decidedly not metal, but more of an alternative rock. That’s why I tend not to say anything along the lines of “ghost is a/an _________ band”. That said, if I HAD to give them a genre-specific title, I would say that they are black heavy alternative rock.
If only they only had black metal vocals
@@regancorbett1562 metal doesn't have to be screaming and growling and blast beats for the whole album. It involves many different subgenres.
They're metal in the same tone musically that Black Sabbath is.
i miss this style of ghost :( even the outfits :(
you said it...
me too,II was the best,year zero and secular haze are my favorites,both protrayed by Emeritus II,also yeah,the outfits and his facepaint were ''scarier''.
apparently, the album coming out in 2021 is supposed to be a lot heavier and darker than what they've done recently
Papa II certainly looked the scariest, but I think the Meliora Ghoul outfits were a big upgrade
Bent7793 I agree
he has whole choreography for his hands
Beztak :D
Oh shit! Českej Ghoul! ČUS! :D
Aeronaut CZ Nazdár!!! jsem ráda, že tu potkávám lidi xD Taky by k nám mohli kluci zajet (ale s Omegou :/ ) :D

I was thinking early 80s
@@Davepool-hs7vr Nah mate this is 1973 all over again trust me I was there :)
@@batphink2655 okay 👍🏻
It is more 70s reminds me of movies like The sentínel
I was thinking 60s like late night show when bands would play
0:39 A master class in how to make something look and feel heavy as shit while not using any of the modern crutches (Screams/growls, blast beats, drop tuned guitars, etc.)
Absolutely agree.
look heavy? wat.
Oh the opening is menacing as hell
They're playing in D Standard lol brainlet
CRUTCHES. You called those things crutches! That's ballsy - I know metal fans that would get really mad at that.
I respect your balls.
This video has yet to be topped. Still my favorite.
Not generally the type of rock and mental I listen to, but I'm falling in love with them VERY quickly!
It's just simply haunting, somewhat chilling and AMAZING!!

This song is like climbing back into the womb. This was my first ghost song ever. I'm nearly in tears listening to it just for the love of it.
Same here. (As in this was my first Ghost song)
My crush: Idk what you did but i'm crazy for you
Me last night:
💀😂 I love this comment lol
I discovered them two months ago and now I think thats the best band in the world.
+BurningPyramid Discovered them last October and was fortunate enough to get to see them live last month. They were amazing. If you get the chance to see them live, do it :)
That's why he said, and I quote, "I think"...
+BurningPyramid Avenged Sevenfold mentioned these guys as "best album of 2015"..... Totally correct A7X.
I say megadeth is best
+Jeffp NM they opened for a7x in 2014 and I was like who the hell are these guys. now they're Grammy winners. how they beat Custer I don't know, but congrats none the less
Satanists arguing in comments over who's more Satanic is pretty hell-arious.
Mark Richardson I get it!
I think Richard Ramirez pretty much wins that prize.
Yup
Eye roll ~
Satanism does not exist
I wholeheartedly miss this version of “Ghost”😢.
Oh shut up I miss repugnant and crash ..... They had to evolve just like any artist does or the become stale ...... I've been here since repugnant and I'm not going anywhere.....
Yeah.. me too
me too man :( the dark sinister look/sound vibe
Yeah, I do too. But I get that they can't keep doing the exact same thing over and over again. Oh well. At least we can always go back to the old albums whenever we want.
Dont get me wrong, I love IMPERA, but it really has made me appreciate Infestisumam in particular.
These ghoul costumes are way cooler than the ones they have now I think.
It looks so much scarier yeah ur right!
To all the people claiming that they came into this expecting it to be super gritty black metal with blastbeats and screaming and such, and then saying these guys aren't metal because they aren't like that... you say that as if being unexpected is a bad thing. You know what I say IS metal? Anything that is rebelllious, unusual, anything that goes against the grain. And these guys definitely do, dressing like a hybrid of Immortal and Sunn0))), but sounding unexpectedly more like Blue Oyster Cult or early Black Sabbath. They are making a name for themselves and becoming famous by being unusual and interesting and going against expectations, while dozens of black metal bands are falling by the wayside into obscurity because they are generic, run-of-the-mill, same-old-same-old corpsepainted blastbeat screaming black metal, bringing nothing new or interesting to the genre.
If you want to get ahead in the metal world, you have to be different and interesting and bring something unexpected to the genre, and Ghost sure as hell does that. So if you're angry at them for not being black metal, or accusing them of being not 'true' metal because they're not what you expected... why do you want Ghost to be exactly what you expect? Why do you want them to be generic and boring?
not that i disagree with you but what you are describing could easily be mistaken for punk rather than metal. Thats probably what draws me to those genres so much though and one could make many arguments that they are one in the same.
Michael Goelz Certainly there's a good measure of punk influence in metal, just like rock, blues, jazz, etc, but bands like Ghost, Black Sabbath, Blue Oyster Cult, King Diamond, Mercyful Fate, etc, aren't punk bands, they are metal to the core. Metal dates back from the late 60s, way before Metallica, Meshuggah, or other bands that you would deem metal. Just because metal evolved agressivelly in sound that does not mean the old, original sound is not metal; maybe it's the other way around.
Michael Welshim not hating on them i think there pretty cool dont know much about them but i really dont think there metal more like old school rock thats all ... and how could you compare them to Oyster or Sabbath?? lol
Josh Parker well, then lol at yourself for not knowing at you're talking about. :)
You can explain yourself all you want, but this group is a joke. I would of enjoyed it but the beat annoys my ears and the lead singers voice sucks.
he truly does have a beautiful voice
Can't deny that.
Kind of reminds me of what's his chops from Interpol.... Love it
Indeed it is amazing
I don't know why but they remind of me of like a heavy new age Rush. love it
+Epitaph its awful
This is my favorite Ghost music video. It's so hypnotic.
3:55 Sounds like he says holy shit LOL
lol
Papa/Tobias has one of the best voices I've ever heard 😍
Sarah Quince his voice on the Bible cover is fucking stunning (it always is but especially there)
Papa has so much control over his voice, it's honestly outstanding.
With autotune everybody sounds good. Good studio band
Bilal Can i saw him live and he definitely doesnt need auto tune. Obviously studio will have some touch ups but his voice is amazing and honestly better live
@@bilalcan2366 You CAN'T mean that THIS singer uses autotune, do you? IF you do, have a listen to Ghost LIVE, listen to "Year zero" Live at Hellfest, that'll teach you about a great singer singing LIVE. THAT performance will knock you on your ass.
Omg 5 ghosts caught on camera. :D
Lmao
Somebody call faze rug
lmfaoo
,
5spooky
I love when the camera zooms in close to Papa’s face and there are dark shadows in his already blacked out eyes/eye sockets. Hands down the best music video
If my kids aren’t gonna listen to this band when they grow up, i don’t want them.
Give them to me. I'd love them
Two days ago I listened to Ghost for the first time, I had seen some photos of the band but I was "closed minded" haha and I felt intimidated but curious at the same time...
And finally I listened to this song and I fall in love with the sound, the visual part and that voice...what a beautiful voice!!! and what a dark-magnetic presence...I´m glad that I discovered such an amazing and hypnotic band...
Hail satan, sheep!
does anybody else think the beginning of Secular Haze sounds like it would be played at a carnival
A PRETTY DARK ONE
Maybe at the silent hill circus
yea lol
reminds me of the beginning of Majesty by blind guardian tbh
yes!!!! It the evil marionette music into at the freak show.. Thais how it makes my body want to move.. Lol , i'm glad to see other hear that :-)
That's the way you tune a snare. A perfect snare sound, not tuned too high, fits the tune perfectly.
His voice really doesn’t fit him, I love it
you should see what he looks like out of costume haha
Right? He sounds 15 years younger than he actually is
That's Ghost for you, Papa looks like a demon but sings like an angel
@@greenghoul157 Very eloquently put
@@greenghoul157 no, he has the voice of a demon when demons do clean vocals
the bass in this gives me life
The bass at the beginning of From the Pinnacle To the Pit tho
This really does look like the 70's , love Ghost!
This song must be brought back to the set list for the next tour-- it's sorely missed!
Very much Agreed
this era of ghost blows the new popstar papa away...papa2 rules
I forget that they are humans sometimes..
Celestial Cult They seem too much like gods.
Ghost Writer i dont think gods would be underworld leaders
Ghost Writer unless hades
LuminZz isn't hades satan?
Papa Alfons no
they may both rule what is technically the "Underworld", but their mythology is completely different in the fact that we know more about Hades then we do Satan
Hades is also actually a god, as he's the god of the underworld
Satan is considered a heathen, and didnt start out as evil or ruling anything
if I'm correct, Satan started out as an angel named Lucifer, but got sent down to Hell because he did wrong, so he was a fallen angel
Hades and Satan are two completely different beings, but considered the same because they both technically rule the Underworld
I really miss the way ghost presented themselves around when this came out. This song is a good representation of the mysterious and trance like vibe they had with infestissiumam
But in contrast, I think that their best album, and by far, is Meliora.
It is mind boggling that there could be so many exceptional songs in a single album, all their albums are great and have great songs but this one just buries all the others in terms of the music itself
I completely agree with you that musically Meliora is their best album, and by far, love nearly every song on it; I think it’s their best produced album as well but I agree with the OP, Issiah, that papa 2 and his ghouls were my favorite look for the band, didn’t like Papa 3 losing the hat and not crazy about the Cardinal’s look either, if he were just some creepy old dude then it’d be fine but considering he’s supposed to be a cardinal from the same satanic clergy that brought us the papas and he’s dressing in snazzy suits, it just takes away from the cult element IMO
Idk who people love Meliora,for me it was really weak at all.
@@harbinger7115 it has everything Ghost is combined into one album basically imo, I also think it's their best so far!
Last true Ghost album . This was the line up which understood good old school hard progressive rock / heavy Metal . Was all downhill from here .
He has the most unique and beautiful voice! I’m OBSESSED ❤
God I miss this Papa. He looks permanently grumpy ... its cute to me! IDK why
Anyone who says this band has weak vocals needs to get a life. Every band is different, maybe they don't want to do the traditional screaming in most doom metal bands. In fact I like how they take their music onto the melodic side. Don't like it? Don't comment, don't listen, and go listen to another band.
I think if he was screaming it would take away from the band and just turn them into a generic death/screamo/whateversubgenre band.
Exactly, that's why I like how they make it more different sounding. It's creative and I like it. It's not your traditional sound but it's still good music. People just get the wrong idea because first they look at the image and think "oh this'll be brutal" but it turns out to not be and they hate because they're upset. Idiots.
i like how melodic it is and that you can understand what he is saying. metal bands that have screaming singers is a turn off to listening to their music
True. There are some metal bands I listen to that have more brutal vocals but not too brutal so you can't understand what they're saying when they sing. Most of the metal I listen to has melodic vocals, some of them brutal and distorted but not over the top brutal like metalcore. With Ghost I think the vocals suit the band.
You should try The Devil's Blood if you like Ghost.
For the most part, there seems to be an inverse correlation between popularity and quality in metal. But I'll be damned if Ghost doesn't deserve all 6 million of those views. One of the best bands out today.
I love the setting like an old variety show from the 60's/70's. Tobias knows what he's doing.
This song kills it. Classic GHOST. I love the Infest era.
Lyrics:
You know that the fog is here omnipresent
When the diseaser sees no cure
You know that the fog is here omnipresent
When the intents remain obscure
Forevermore
Weave us of mist
Fog weaver
Hide us in shadows
Unfathomable wall-less maze
A secular haze
You know that his son is near omnipotent
When she sees eye to eye with spears
You know that his son is near omnipotent
When youth and innocence disappear
Forever lost
Weave us of mist
Fog weaver
Hide us in shadows
Unfathomable, wall-less maze
A secular haze
He is divinity omniscient
Seeing the world revolve with spite
The surge of humanity oblivious
To the divine bringingeth light
Let there be night
Weave us of mist
Fog weaver
Hide us in shadows
Fog weaver
🎼👍
Found the nice guy that posted the lyrics... lol...
I heard "he is divinity , holy shit ! 🤣 Thanks for the lyrics or I would have been singing it wrong all my life!
Thanks)
SATANIC GARBAGE
I'm in love with their simply awesome music and album covers, and lyrics, and remarkable and unique performance at Rock In Rio 2013. I'm in love, this is just perfect
I like the instrumentals,guitars solos,and others,I am not part of any religion but some letters of them are very exaggerated in Satanism,but in Rock In Rio 2013 they have not been good and even was booed.
Your comment is 7 years old!!! Happy August 29, 2021!!!
I miss that ghost era. That's what the band was when it captivated me deeply
Even the way Papa (Tobias) moves his arms is so elegant and beautiful and mesmerizing...
Im 54 years old and listen to jazz, deep purple, yes and Genesis... but i really like these guys!
Ulla Norrby Your selection sounds excellent! I'm in my mid 30's & also listen to similar amongst a wider variety of genres & musicians. 🎶 💞
I agree.
People, join in on this three man circle jerk!
I find it interesting we older people often use qualifiers to give more credence to certain bands. Ghost is certainly deserved of justification.
No one cares how old you are dude
Yeah don't let the Satanic imagery thing put you off, I don't think they're actually Satanic. Ghost takes a lot of inspiration from that era of music you're talking about. Like the 70s, hard rock and acid rock, even some elements of heavy metal a la Black Sabbath.
My top 5 ghost songs
1.Secular haze
2.Elizabeth
3. He is
4. Spirit
5.Depth Of Satan Eyes

i miss this ghost
My favourite looking papa, his makeup is the best, to me.
reminds me a lot of ghost
This is Ghost...
Someone didn't get the joke
yeah, I hear the ghost in it as well
first álbum great but next there trash as Hell haha
they are
Did you guys actually sell your souls to the Devil? I ask because I've never heard a band where I like every single song they make. Normally you hear an album, pick the 1 or 2 good songs from it, and listen to them over and over. But I listen to every single Ghost album indefinitely.
+Saboth Same here!
+Saboth Exactly my words to my husband when i introduce him to Ghost
I've known Ghost for almost 2 years and barely this September I got SO into them. it's ridiculous. I knew they were coming. I skipped other bands because "well in really want to see Ghost" lol their show was insane. I haven't stopped listening to them and I fall in love deeper and deeper.. I have a theory. Maybe Ghost actually did sell their soul to Satan to make us believe they make amazing music just so Satan can gain more followers :D
Well, it's a theory! XD I think the same thing too sometimes tbh
+Cynthia Venegas in the infernal pits well still have ghost, and ghost is everything!
Think this my favorite Ghost song, just love that soaring bass line. That and it's just so crunchy and tight
*The Darkness at the Heart of my Love.. ugh! I'm torn!! Ghost is amazing!
I miss Papa II sometimes, he was just so stiff and serious lol.
way more musical, interesting, enthralling, cooler, and creepier than the average fizzy, blasty, screechy, overproduced black metal poser band.
***** THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If u arr searching for a very dark black metal song check out darkthrones album panzerfaust. The best song on it IMO is en vind av sorg
This is way darker than any other Black Metal
Jon Kopp LoL. No...Don't get me wrong, this is ok. But Darkthrone is way darker then Ghost.
Jesus AntiChrist
No they aren't. Look at the lyrics.
Ghost has a unique clean and precise sound, when I first heard their music I didn't liked it, but after a few songs I couldn't stop listening and now absolutely love them.
It looks like the set of a 60’s era pop rock performance in front of a live studio audience.
Rad
I miss this era of ghost.
The first time I watched this, I remember feeling like something had been missing from my life for the longest time, and that it was this amazing music.
Wait, there are people out there who really think Ghost is satanic or trying to promote satanism? It's a schtick... a fun, effective schtick. You could subtract the visuals and make the lyrics about almost anything, and the music would still be awesome.
There theme and lyrics are definitely a mix of Satanic and Gothic influenced.
ipatchi002 I know. They aren't actually satanic or trying to get people into satanism though. It's a fun theatrical thing.
Isn't Satanism more about individualism and rejection of dogma than actual devil worship? Either way, I love this music. Nothing beats an organ through a Marshal stack.
People will never figure this out. They've been being tricked over and over since the 60s/70s and apparently they'll never grasp what an 'act' is.
Chuck Schable The satanic philosophy goes allot deeper than that but yes, satanists don't actually worship satan as an actually deity.
I love that my first introduction to Papa is also the most viewed moment of this video. A bunch of those views are legit from me, lol. He just comes in, takes it all in like "yes, this is as it should be", and starts kicking ass. I love it.
The early 80's public television televangelic setting makes this video terrific!
"I fell on my balls." - Papa Emeritus
1:56
I'm 11 and Ghost is my favorite band ever! Yes I'm quiet small in age but these guys are seriously my life!
Satan has blessed you with Ghost, child. His music is great!
Basing me into the publication date of this comment, I am currently the same age as you and Ghost is my favorite band too.
@@tac2coolslayer791 Satan bless your sweet little dark heart gothling. Enjoy the dark side, young one. Check out Nightwish too 😊
Yeah...that how rock works sometimes in life.
Now this is wholesome right here.
The key change so early at 0:24 really sets this whole song up for feeling as weird as it does. It's really exceptional song writing.
The bass during the chorus of this tune is so perfect…it’s almost indescribable…
papa emeritus II was evil looking!
the first papa emeritus was frekin thin
joe cormier I'm just figuring out bout these guys. Why the singer change? Why number 1 and 2 and stuff? I'm confused
+Kris Sanders The singer himself doesn't change, but canonically, the singer is a different Papa, with his own style of clothing, with the Ghouls also getting a visual change, like their masks, or their clothes which are always meant to look like they belong under Papa Emiratus
Hegataro umm. Ok. See, I kept thinking their changing the singer the they change the popes in stuff in Catholicism lol. But the 1st papa looked very old and bald without the makeup, but when I saw a vid say it's the second papa, he looked younger and had hair with his makeup. Then I thought, how the heck their voices sounded so so on point similar
[The guy] that potrays Papa Emiratus I,II&III (and IV, in the next album) is actually wearing a prosthetic face. That helps with making each papa younger, but the singer stays.
I am a Slayer, PanterA, Devildriver, Opeth and similar devoted genre metal head. When I first heard Ghost BC, I was like "What is this weak crap poser noise?" After listening to them a bit more I have to be honest, I am changing my mind. Their arrangements tend to linger in the brain with a unique sound that is not easy to emulate. They portray a dark side without having to "out metal" everyone. That's a refreshing change. Digging these guys more and more!
Just love the 1978 to 1982 public broadcasting channel vibe .
This was by far my favorite Ghost time period, long live PAPA 2!!!🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
