Any GHOST (the band) fans here??

[The Rage]

Great great band!
The cover of their first album was so good that I choosed to buy the cd just for it (and the fact that was a rise above rec. release)... Nobody knew them and I immediately started spreading the cult
Happy to see they've become quite a big name.

 

[FronTowardEnemy]

I dig them too. I first heard them on liquid metal (XM radio). Only heard a few of their songs but I think I might YouTube their vids again to check them out live.

 

[Aqualung60]

Yes, big fan of theirs from the beginning.

 

[callofcthulhu]

Haven't gotten the latest album from them but the single I heard from it was ball burstingly awful.

I was very impressed by their first few releases, however.

 

[NWF Bassist]

Amazing band!

 

[Intothevoid567]

They're the best

 

[Shadoof]

I just started listening to them about a year ago. Closest thing to metal I listen to.

Anyone planning to see them live - I strongly recommend hearing protection. Loud doesn't even begin to describe the volume they were putting out when I saw them.

 

[Buszkock]

I saw them in Hell's Kitchen in NYC on the night of the full blood moon! Awesome show at Terminal 5. They are absolutely outstanding live. Really powerful and clear and fun.

 

[DiabolusInMusic]

I don't have any albums but I am familiar, they're a good time. I saw them open for Opeth (I think) and they were great, highly recommended.

 

[mmbongo]

I like their cover of "Here Comes The Sun"

Did not know this existed. Awesome! Thanks!

 

[Kmonk]

I had never heard of them. Based on the video which was posted, they are definitely not for me.

 

[Murdoc_420]

Hmmm. That video/sound was cool, but then I watched an interview.

I read an article in a British rock mag a guy I worked with used to bring in. The 'minnions' said that only the father could speak. But now I guess the other guys can give interviews about the bands concept and how it started now so... That kind of breaks down the mystique :S

I had brought them up on Spotify after I read the article but the song I brought up sounded a lot more 'finnish deth metal' and I didn't really care for it, figured it all sounded like that.

 

[kleinenenten]

They're okay. Good for a change of pace, but nowhere near my favorite band, metal or otherwise.

 

[bolophonic]

I like the riffs, but the singer reminds me of Chester Bennington.

 

[BlueAliceOasis]

Personally, it's not my thing. I can't do anything concerning Satanism, whether legitimate like black metal or tongue-in-cheek like Ghost.

 

[Spectrum]

I like them. Took me a minute to get past the costume gimmickry, but they sound good, they're actually making good melodic metal, not just trying to be br00tal like so many modern metal bands, and the singer has a great voice. It's kind of like they took what was good about the 80s and ran with it. The satanic stuff doesn't bother me, the fact that it puts some people off actually draws me to it.

I haven't seen them live, but if their bass tone sounds anything like this than I really want to:

 

[friaraustin]

This band sounds very limp like wet noodle.

 

[SplinteredSkull]

I've been following them on their first album. Love their work, and I'm so excited I get to see them this May. I actually submitted a college essay that examined their latest album, as well as the band as a whole.

 

[Ewo]

I like their cover of "Here Comes The Sun"

Interesting...they changed it to _minor_.

 

[Bassic Playing]

Had a weird experience a couple of years ago at a festival when I somehow bumped into the guys from Dragonforce, and we were both on our way to see Ghost, so we hung out and watched them together.Great band, and they put on a great show.
