Elliott Fullam of littlepunkpeople.net conducted his second interview with A Nameless Ghoul of Ghost last night on their tour van at their Union Transfer show in Philly, during their 2015 Black To The Future tour. His first interview with a Ghoul was in May of last year at their Best Buy Theater show, which was a favourite among many fans.

In this video they discuss the writing process of the Meliora record, time travel, Bernie Sanders vs Donald Trump, Papa's dealing with the Pope, cats and their alignment with Satan, possible acoustic, mellow album in the future and more.

Ghost is currently on their extensive North American tour and last night was their 5th show on this leg, which ends in Phoenix, Arizona on November 1st before heading out for their overseas dates. The Nameless Ghoul in this video revealed to Elliott that the band will complete around two years of touring to support their Meliora album before returning to the studio with new material.

Ghost recently released a new music video for "From The Pinnacle To The Pit”. Directed by Zev Deans, the clip can be seen below:
