In this new video from Live Nation TV, Ghost’s A Nameless Ghoul discusses the roots of the band and the subtleties and ironies that come with creating "devil music".
During Candlemass' performance at Gefle Metal Festival in Gävle, Sweden on July 16th, Papa Emeritus III of Ghost joined Candlemass for a surprise performance of "Well Of Souls". Check out fan-filmed video below:
In September, Ghost will commence the Popestar US headlining tour - a 35 city run that includes two rituals at The Wiltern in Los Angeles in October. See below for a complete list of dates and for more information on upcoming appearances, click here.
Papa Emeritus III and his nameless ghouls were awarded a Grammy earlier this year for “Best Metal Performance”. Their most recent album Meliora was released on August 21st, 2015 and debuted at #1 at Independent Retail, #2 at Rock, and in the Top 10 (#8) on Billboard's Top 200 Album Chart. The band capped off a landmark 2015 with their late night television debut on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert's Halloween show on CBS with a rousing performance of their offering "Cirice", which reached the #3 at radio at Active Rock and Mainstream Rock.
