Okay... so rather than trying to get these recordings off of UA-cam, Ghost is FEATURING them on their page. Hell yes. That, my friends, is a band that has class.
You know that an album will be awesome when they open a concert with a song off it that no one has heard before. This song is already a classic and it hasn't even been released yet. Awesome stuff. I missed them in Australia last time. I will not miss them this time.
I was sitting off stage left. That crew was going through it that night. They had like maybe a half hour to get all of Volbeat’s stuff off stage and then set Ghost up.
@@skeletonsinsuits6445 They're like classic metal. Tobias takes a lot of his sound from the founding metal bands, like Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, and Iron Maiden. Kaiserion has a very Maiden sound to it, I think. Just because something is melodic doesn't mean it's not metal. But frankly, I don't care if they're metal or not - they're Ghost, they rock out, and that's what matters.
@@neuralmute No no no, you see, for something to be "metal", the vocals must be incomprehensible screaming about vikings or war or some shit, with triggered double kick drums and completely inaudible bass guitars. I love Ghost, one of the best hard rock acts around. And there's no shame in calling them metal, some of the songs/riffs are crushing and groovy enough to put the heaviest bands to shame.
@@TheJoazzz Right, I forgot! (facepalm) All the reasons I stopped listening to new metal sometime in the 90's! XD (Though I dig Sabaton's concept of History Metal, The Hu doing Mongolian Folk Metal (are *they* metal enough?), and Unleash The Archers - Brittany does indeed Slay!) I wonder if the inaudible bass is an evolution from how Metallica kept undermixing Jason Newsted, in their irrational grudge against him for not being Cliff Burton? Just a thought...
It screams to the high heavens "IRON MAIDEN!" I get a kick out of it when I remember that Iron Maiden has a game and put Papa Emeritus IV in as an unlockable character.
the curtain getting stuck reminds me of the scene on spinal tap were the bassist gets stuck in the pod and the crew spend the whole song trying to free him
I attempted to transcribe the lyrics but quickly realized the audio was all over the place. So here's what I could catch: Kaiserion, the bells that tolled With the building of our empires, the ashes are now owed CHORUS: For the paradise lost is sent straight to hell I'll add more if I can. Leave a comment on what lyrics you hear, too! Edit: "We're building our empire from the ashes of an old" lyrics from the recent Kerrang cover story
Side note: my theory on the ghouls' costume is this; Going by the concept of Prequelle taking place just before and during the Black Plague, and with the new album being titled Impera - meaning to rule in Latin - it seems like an empire (later oppressed in history) was built by one of the first Papas to take dominion in Europe after the population was decimated, and they developed more advanced masks than the classic plague masks of the time. That is just my theory though! I haven't heard all Tobias has to say about it yet!
I love this new direction so much, I can't wait to see what else is in store 😈😈 these amazingly talented people have worked their asses off for years for this. the ghouls look SICK btw, don't hold onto 2016 so hard. Sometimes this fan base is so disappointing and toxic. If you don't like it, that's fine. But shitting on these amazing artists is just super lame.
You deserve some kind of a prize for this comment, medal or at least a fukkin badge or something. Ghost continue to get better and better. There are some wierdos that took them waaay too seriously at the start as if they were going to summon Satan 🤣 so moan about the more fun upbeat stuff because they want *"Darkness"* So, once again, I applaud your comment ❤️
@@pheebster8239 yup, and if you think about it, Satan is all about a numbers game, so appealing to the masses is exactly what he would do... And that's what ghost have done, without giving up on their "message" lol so the more upbeat stuff is the most "satanic" of them all 👻
@@wessley4606 Hell yeah! Call me Little Sunshine? Way to call a bunch of kids who feel alone to the dark side with rock and roll! XD Personally, I love how Ghost is always evolving, and how so far they haven't disappointed me yet.

Great Ghost tune! Elements of Rush riffs and tempo changes -- channeling Alex Lifeson -- which I love. Not a surprise as Tobias Forge is a fan of just about every rock genre and every iconic rock band.
I wonder what happened at the beginning, because it didn't look to me like anyone was even tryin to pull the curtain down. Didn't see any shadow of anyone behind it tryin until the person at the far end finally started pulling some of it down. Maybe something wasn't ready on stage, or maybe it was really jus that hard to pull down. Either way Ghost still rocked!!
Something I have noticed is that his vocals are much less restricted, so I think the change to the chin and mouth part of the mask was mainly to let him open his mouth a little more freely.

Same! Hoping they come to aus 🙏
Dying to see them live. Fingers cross they bring the ritual back to aus soon
i feel bad for those techs trying their hardest to pull down that curtain
yep, t'was a bit of a bummer ;)
I feel worse for ghost having to rock like it was down lol
I was sitting off stage left. That crew was going through it that night. They had like maybe a half hour to get all of Volbeat’s stuff off stage and then set Ghost up.
@@jimmymcfly9822 poor guys!
F them they get to see a Ghost concert every night. Green Eyed Monster here 🤘
That last riff of Rats is such an epic metal groove. I don't care who you are!!!!
It’s a good song, but did you say metal?😂😂
@@chrisprado4597 they kinda are in a sense? The very very light side of it. Maybe even hard rock. But i can kinda see where theyd be metal.

So much is different aesthetically. The Nameless Ghouls especially. Fender Strats, kickass double bass drum throne, etc. I dig it all.
Yeah it’s very German ww1 lookin
I'm getting a goth-steampunk vibe from it all, and I am entirely here for it.
@@wentlle77 The hussar cape is the coolest part of it.
It screams to the high heavens "IRON MAIDEN!"
I get a kick out of it when I remember that Iron Maiden has a game and put Papa Emeritus IV in as an unlockable character.
Not a fan of the new masks/guitars
the curtain getting stuck reminds me of the scene on spinal tap were the bassist gets stuck in the pod and the crew spend the whole song trying to free him
I thought the exact same thing!
I was also thinking that XD
Yup 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Mad Gallica’s backup vocals are fantastic on Kaisarion
She's such good vocalist!
She is amazing! Hated Ghost was off for so long but really enjoyed all her solo stuff.
Not to be a simp, but she's the ghoul of my dreams.
How do we know its her??
@@ThomasBerg99 I’ve heard her enough to recognize her voice.
Feeling some 80s vibe, even some Meatloaf vibes to the song. Can't wait for March 11th!!!
I love the new look and every new song they’ve shown off thus far! This is shaping up to be my favorite era.
0:30 Good to see Spinal Tap are still going strong!
This video has been added to Ghost homepage! OMG congrats & enjoy the views.
These guys kick ass! Such a versatile group! Gotta love'em!
That F**k Off jacket is great!!! Along with everything else of course!!! Missed these guys & gals 💗💗😈😈🎶👻👻
I attempted to transcribe the lyrics but quickly realized the audio was all over the place. So here's what I could catch:
Kaiserion, the bells that tolled
With the building of our empires, the ashes are now owed
CHORUS:
For the paradise lost is sent straight to hell
I'll add more if I can. Leave a comment on what lyrics you hear, too!
Edit: "We're building our empire from the ashes of an old" lyrics from the recent Kerrang cover story
Pretty sure the first part of the chorus is "Run away from the stench of the heavens".
This is such a great Iron Maiden-esque song and I'm eating it up 1000%
Glad I'm not the only one getting a serious Maiden vibe from this one!
I'm getting Maiden and a little bit of Queen in there, though it could just be how it's being played here
@@drummonkey9643 Performance wise, Papa's been taking his Freddie Mercury pills, and that could only be a good thing.
Finally a REAL BAND. tHANK YOU

That is just my theory though! I haven't heard all Tobias has to say about it yet!
There was an article out today/yesterday in kerrang. Tobias said the album takes place roughly in Victorian/industrial times
That being said, I do like your theory a lot. Maybe that Papa empire ruled alongside other empires at the same time?
To me the ghouls look like a cross between WW1 soldiers and the mothman
I'm getting Sandman vibes from the ghouls' new look. And that's a very good thing.
Very cool theory! I definitely get some post apocalyptic vibes.
What an incredible image! 👏👏👏👏💔🤟🎸
Amazing! Super excited for the new album!!
I was torn on the style of the new masks, but that shot for the last 20 seconds was badass
It's so classic and dripping with 80's metal. Aspiring to be a ghoul sounds like a damned fun gig!
The solo in Rats was super clean. That was excellent.
You know what? I'm digging it!! I absolutely enjoy how they can keep it fresh and also have a distinct sound/aesthetic at the same time
Love It!!! In Italy We are without Live Show from 2 years...Help us please!!! Freedom!!!
Very Iron Madien \m/ can't wait for the new album.
I agree very Iron Maiden. I’m loving it so far ❤️
100% Ghost will eventually be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
@DMB1990 they've made one not so good son imo.Call Me Sunshine wasn't great. Kaiserion is amazing
Please NO! They couldn't sink that low.
@DMB1990 in the words of Bane "For you"
I will riot if it doesn't happen

Fix your ears
Me too👍
Go listen to little sunshine 666 more times…it’s epic.

Edna Mode is rolling in her grave right now… ps, loving the new song, very hyped for this album! 😍

DRUMS SOUND MONSTROUS

Nice mic save on RATS! Tobias almost lost it!😆
Which part? Time stamp🖤

God, I can't wait to see them.
OMFG I'm seeing them on Feb 18! Ty for sharing and giving me a taste!
I can’t wait to see them in Dallas! Got my tickets!
Oh my god! I will see them in may in germany, the first concert for my 6 year old son....ghost is the law...
Wooooooooow this was amazing quality! Wish you were the one recording it all haha
last few seconds looked fantastic.
He does that little skip every time he goes backstage. I love everything about this man
Same ♥️
Haha did they fuck up dropping the screen? Awesome song anyway
That's what I was wondering. Looked like they were having trouble at the beginning there.
Kabuki curtain drop -systems are notoriously unreliable. They either get stuck halfway or refuse to budge altogether way too often.
this is the day i've become a Ghost fan
[Verse 1]
Kaisarion, a prophecy told
We're building our empire from the ashes of an old
Kaisarion, the fruit of the womb
Our brotherhood of good faith sealed an apostate witch's doom
[Pre-Chorus]
It's the sound of another deadline whistling past your ears
It's the sight of a million regrets mounting over years
It's the words that were never spoken that echoes through the times
It's the smell of the burning temples swept away by rhymes
[Chorus]
(Hypatia) Far away from the stench of the heavens
(Hypatia) Long ago, yet too close to forever
(Hypatia) When a paradise is lost, go straight to...
[Verse 2]
Kaisarion, a matter of love
When Mother Earth is calling for a father up above
Kaisarion, put on the smiles
And throw your holy rocks right at her for her satanic wiles
[Pre-Chorus]
It's the truth of candor shone through the prism of deceit
It's the continence of bishops with their choirboys en-suite
It's the tongue selling adulation that licks to no avail
It's the noise of the righteous dogma that hides the handmaid's tail
[Chorus]
(Hypatia) Far away from the stench of the heavens
(Hypatia) Long ago, yet too close to forever
(Hypatia) When a paradise is lost, go straight to...
[Bridge]

I can't believe I won't be able to see this live in the UK, great quality video btw at least I know what it would've been like 🔥
Lmao the thing didn't want to open up 🤣😂🤣 him trying to go through it got me rolling.

You're hero! Thanks a lot!
I love how for the second time in a row there's been an issue with the curtain dropping here in Reno 🤣
Anyone else notice the "f!@k you" inside his jacket at 2:10. Hahahaha
The panic in the guy that failed to get the curtain down...Tobias just made a mental note to sack him and moved on with the show
I thought Ghost was on the lines of a death metal band. Sounds like an 80s sound and arrangement. They aren't bad. Thought the sound would be heavier.
Listen to their older albums. They change and create a new lore every album
That was awesome, thanks for posting.
I asked Satan earlier why God was cooler than he, and in the voice of Casper, he said "RAT'S!". fantastic quality on this video BTW. Awesome.
Poor Papa had a "Spinal Tap" moment when the sheet didn't drop!
I love that outfit!
Roel.... you have a lot of Ghost Music on your channel and other heavy metal groups so...... I just subscribed To your channel!!!😎
What's the over/under on the number of times a Ghoul takes a header because of that headgear this tour?
Loving copias/papas outfit, especially the shiny jacket and the pants
I’m just curious, did any of you guys check out the merchandise stand?
Is it part of the schtick for them to always be fumbling with that curtain?
Ghost's Spinal Tap moment!!
I bet Tobias was pissed off about the curtain drop failure 😅 we all know our papa is all about the perfect show
I thought the exact same thing when watching it!
05:20 - Brutal drums!!!!!!!! Raaaaaaats!
backs are soooo good
Ghost puts this video on one of their playlist
Costumes went from high end fashion Italian couture to A German militaty style .
One word on that opening farce,,,,,, ok two SPINAL TAP 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Buzz off then
Rats is a killer tune
Did the lead guitar change?
Same guitarist, but playing a different guitar.
3:14 i can watch this scene forever
Real life Spinal Tap moment!
3:13 Metallica slow four horsemen)
thank you!!!!
Same thing happened at a priest concert back around 2009,when the curtain wouldn't come down at the start!
Something I have noticed is that his vocals are much less restricted, so I think the change to the chin and mouth part of the mask was mainly to let him open his mouth a little more freely.
Papa in the ghouls looking fine as hell!!!
Gran aporte, Brother
Ace job on the curtain drop 🤣😂
Spinal Tap moment.
Tobias now looks like the Joker.
Rock & Roll is alive and well.
Did the current malfunction? Seems like it was stuck
Don't really like the Ghouls' look, but so nice they're back and doing new songs!
the choir is better than in studio damnit, women made it better :D
Curtain guy had ONE JOB!…..good lord!!!
Is paps mask michael myers just redone?
Who are these individuals, and where did they come from?
I think someone had trouble with the stage curtain
