Judging by how you responded to this song, I think “Spillways” would send you over the edge. Fellow Ghouls, what say you?
I agree with this.
Yes, please
Indeed.
👍
We need this!
What I love about them is, that they bring back classic rock without sounding oldfashioned. It's straight, honest rock music.
ONE OF US! ONE OF US! ONE OF US!
🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
PLEASE do more ghost, your level of joy listening to them is exactly how they make people feel! Ill watch any but recommend spillways, faith, rats, griftwood.
Oh and hunters moon...
Two extra horns up for Rats and Hunter's Moon!
I've seen dozens of Ghost reactions but this was the first standing ovation I've seen.
Hahaha most certainly deserved
Ranked #1 metal song of the 2000s for a reason.
I think this is pretty much "the" song for Ghost. It's certainly the song that got my wife and I utterly hooked and having seen it live it is tailor made for stadiums 🙂
If you dig the retro sound, you're gonna love their entire Impera album!
I got to live vicariously thru my daughter. She is the little girl in the He Is music video. Its a very cool keep sake for me, for one of my favorite bands.
Your daughter is in the He Is video!?!?
YESS I love seeing people convert! Its such a treat for us Ghost fans to see someone hearing our favorite songs for the first time
The square and level is a reference to Freemasons. This was Ghost's big, stadium anthem type song and it's amazing.
He actually clarified in a podcast that it has nothing to do with masons, but didn’t really explain further lol so who knows
Tobias said it's not
Tobias Forge is a consummate showman, and wants nothing more than hove his audience singing and dancing along. Everything is simple for a reason, you won't find a single Ghost tune that doesn't have something begging for singing or shouting along to. The guitar solos are intentionally melodic and simple. When recording the "Impera" album, he brought Fredrick Åkesson of Opeth to play the guitar leads, and they asked to "dumb it down". Fredrick did fantastically, and said he would enjoy doing it again, because Tobias knows exactly what he wants. My favorite Ghost tune is "Faith". One of the most vicious ways to say "Faith is mine" ever.
As I watched this and seeing how much you enjoyed it, I was transported back to 2017. I saw Ghost open for Iron Maiden and the first song they played was this one. I had no idea who they were but I became and instant fan that night. I still get chills thinking about how good they were.
Yes they are european. Swedish. If you get a chance to see them live, do it!! Last year they were the final act at the 30th year anniversary of Sweden rock festival. That show was out of this world. Perfection!!
Yes I was there to and it was fantastic! 😃🤘
Great reaction from a great reactor. Take it from me, an old crusty 60+ music fan. GHOST is the best thing to happen to music in the last 20 years. More GHOST please!
I am 60. I agree 100%
The band used to open their concerts with this song....now they close their shows with it. It fits pretty much in any slot during the show. :D I saw them twice on their tour last year...if you get a chance to attend the next tour, definitely go....one of the best shows I've ever seen. I also saw their recent concert movie Rite Here Rite Now 4 times in the theater. XD
Ghost- Respite in the spitalfields
A re-listen of Cirice is totally okay. It's such a good song that it's worth it.
I agree with this.
One of my favourite guitar solos ever
I love to see your reactions to Ghost, you seem so excited, same way how i feel about them. They're just so good
If you don't do Cirice might I suggest 'He is' instead. Also their cover of Bible (original by Swedish post-punk band Imperiet) is really good
You looked so joyful listening to this song. Love to see it! This was my first Ghost song that got me hooked.
Ghost is (IMO, obviously!) the best thing to happen to Rock (not Metal, but Rock, even though there's a lot of old-school metal in there) for many, many years. Not so much a band as one man's crazy project. The recent film 'Rite Here Rite Now', whose title is adapted from a lyric in this song, is simply stunning, and it's 90% concert footage from two concerts they did last year. It's just left theatres, so you'll have to wait for it to become available on streaming or Blu-Ray etc. The double live album soundtrack from it is due out this month.
Incidentally, you are bang on about the solos. Tobias Forge crafts the solos for his songs (he is originally a guitarist, not just the singer and songwriter), they are never shred-fests, even if some of them are very difficult to play - no, they serve a purpose in enhancing the song.
That GHOST movie was unbelievable. It had me laughing and crying. Sometimes both at the same time.
Second the recommendation of Spillways. As a longtime Ghost fan, it's maybe my favorite song. Also, Year Zero for their more diabolical side.
"I think most hammers are square".
Bro has never held a hammer in his life apparently
Sure I have.
A day without Ghost is like a day without sunshine. More please 🇦🇺🤘
Spillways, Rats, Call Me Little Sunshine, and Year Zero would all be great follow ups in the Ghost lineup. Maybe even Pinnacle to the Pit.
YES! ❤ their sound is just soooo rich and full and round... the guitar with the synth and the drumming... I love them so much. "Rats" is awesome too. Consider the time it was released! "Year Zero" or "Spillways" are also up there. Love your reactions, Chase ❤
So recently Ghost released the movie Rite Here Rite Now in theaters which is not only a amazingly shot concert movie but also expands on the band lore beautifully.
So chances are there might be some great Ghost live recordings coming to UA-cam soon ^^
Ghost rules! Tobias said that Uriah Heep was one of his big influences. I am so old that I saw Uriah Heep open for KISS in 1977. You can absolutely hear the influence.
"They're European, right?"
Yes. Specifically, Swedish.
Please, PLEASE do more Ghost, every album is so different from each other, they even have a "60s album". Amazing band, one of my favorites and one of thos important band in my heart. Also, live version of the songs since 2019 have live backing vocals and all that good stuff, they're 100% better than the studio versions. If I can recommend some songs, go for "Watcher in the Sky", "Respite on the Spitafields", "Twenties", "Year Zero", "Stand by Him", "Zenith", "Per Aspera ad Inferi", "From the Pinnacle to the pit", and pretty much any song from Infestisummam
Oh, Ghouls are the musicians in the band, they all have nicknames, but ultimatelly they are all just 'Ghouls' or 'Ghoulette' for the females. And some people call the fans 'Ghesties' (usually the newer fans) but there's a lot (lot) of people that really dislike the word Ghestie. Oh and the band has lore, they even had a movie that came out last week, and it was amazing!
Older fans used to call themselves "Ghouls" too, or sometimes "Clergy" then the TikTok kids came up with "Ghesties".
Since I've been into this weird band for a long time now, I kind of loathe the term "Ghestie", but these kids are young enough to be my offspring, so they can use whatever terms they want, I suppose.
@@thing_under_the_stairs yeah I don't mind as long as I don't *have* to use the term 'Ghestie' lol Clergy sound the most appropriate. It got even worse when they started calling the movie 'the Ghovie', like stop it
@@Ezekku Certain pals and I used to joke about being Members of the Clergy when we were drunk and jamming, but that was kind of the point - we're more than old enough to drink, and we were thinking about starting a Ghost tribute band. We weren't thirsting over musicians twice our age on social media. That just creeps me out.
Yes! You need to do Cirice. And some of the stuff from the 1st 2 albums as well. AND live too!
My 1st band tattoo ever was Ghost.
You should have gone to the movie last weekend. It was awesome and a great to see them live.
Gotta love this classic Ghost bop. Not a lot of other bands with this kind of sound while also being good (they and Night Flight Orchestra are the only ones I can think of that are still active).
Definitely think you'd like "Spillways" - one of my Ghost favorites.
You should also check out "Call Me Little Sunshine" but specifically the live version from the Jimmy Kimmel show~
Great video. But duuude you kiss mention got me in the feels!! I'm sure the metal elitist of today would scoff at the idea that kiss was the band that got me into rock, where I eventually found my way into the heavier metal scene. I remember the first time I heard it was when was a wee lad, I hopped into the car my dad and uncle were jamming to 100,000 years live from was it kiss alive 2 or 1??? I was like WHAT IS THIS?!! from there the rest was history.
That is such a damn good catchy chorus!
You: I believe in Ghost.
Me: "If you have ghosts" (a cover by Ghost, original from Roky Erickson, ex-13th Floor Elevators).
Great reaction buddy, you really need to check out as much Ghost as you can, phenomenal band, I was lucky enough to see them live two years ago, I been into them for a few years and they just get better and better, enjoy and keep rockin 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
Do all of the Ghost!!
There was just a limited theatrical release of a concert film and it was fantastic. It’s a live show they did at the end of the last US tour with storyline elements sprinkled in of the bands story and the fate of the lead singer. When it comes out on dvd or streaming i think it would be fun if you did a live stream reaction of it.
This song was my introduction to Ghost at the insistence on my brother. And yeah, I was hooked the moment I heard that solo. Ghost just allows you to have fun with metal. Their sound has totally evolved with the lore of the band and I cannot help but smile every time I hear them. Their older stuff is a little more doom metal but still has that 60/70s feel. Their newer stuff is very much inspired by 80s metal. Again. Just so much fun!
Great video! HADGD!
Ahhh! I was looking foward to another Ghost video from you! It's such a joy to watch people discover Ghost bit by bit :)))) I'm glad you're converted! Square Hammer was one of the first songs I heard from them, so it has a special place in my heart. Sometimes, it's impossible not to feel like you were born in the wrong generation, musically speaking, but Ghost is there to ease that ache in our hearts...
If I may recommend other songs from them... You should listen to Monstrance Clock, From the Pinnacle to the Pit, Kaisarion and Spillways! They're other favorites of mine!
Anytime I see this song I HAVE to mention Melodicka Bros did an amazing Cyberpunk cover of this song. His voice is very different, but it is definitely worth a listen.
This is the song that got me into Ghost after seeing it on another reaction channel a couple years back. I think i may be a tad obbsesed now lol
Got on board right as the boat is sinking
If you're a big Kiss fan, then Kaisarion should be right up your lane. It's their (current) big anthem set opener. There's no official video, so it would either be audio-only or a live performance. But definitely worth a listen.
I would love to hear a "relisten" review. I always look forward to your take on songs.
Those low pitched guitar chords always make me think of Def Leppard, Pyromania era and earlier. Hey, added bonus is Joe Elliott guest featured on a version of Ghost’s song Spillways!
Ghost is such a great mix of that classic rock sound mixed with enough "modern" to not sound dated. Really great band. I'd be interested in hearing your analysis on Cirice even if you've heard it before. I'll also throw out a suggestion for the Ghost song "From the Pinnacle to the Pit", it's a banger with a great bassline.
Loved it! This is the song that got me into the band. Please check out He Is, live. Absolutely gives me chills!
Ghost should be started with their 1st and heavier rock album OPUS, and then progress from there. Please go see their movie, they are the best band in last 20 years!
Ghost are fantastic and are even better live, so get yourself over to a gig of theirs when you can.
Big fan of your reactions - getting back into Ghost myself and just watched your other Ghost ones for the first time yesterday. Thought to myself "would be cool to see a Square Hammer one". And here it is the very next day!
Spillways is my current new favourite of theirs, I think you'd vibe with it!
“Incredible talented group of individuals”, no, it’s just Tobias ❤
Two comments.
One , yes to a Cirice reaction, even though not a first listen
Second, to think this track didn't make it to the album Meliora because it didn't fit the narrative. We could have lost this banger.
Good reaction as always Chase. More Ghost please
And Zenith! Awesome song as well! It deserves some recognition, imo
Go Cirice !!
Please keep the Ghost coming...I've been waiting! They come to the states pretty frequently when the release a new album. They do a pre-tour leg, a tour leg, and then a post tour leg...lol. So I saw them three times on the last release alone. Always worth it as they do one of the most entertaining shows I've seen (And I started going to concerts in the early 90's).
Please do Year Zero and If You Have Ghosts by Ghost. 😊
Such a fun reaction!!
Yeah.. I believe somebody once said that a good solo should be memorable to the point that you can whistle it. So see what you mean.
I'm not 100% on this, but I think Brian May said that. He's always written gorgeously melodic solos that sing almost as well as his pal Freddy did, with enough technicality to let you know that he knows his stuff, but never a wank-fest. I'll bet you can sing the solos from Bohemian Rhapsody right here, right now if you try...
Love this song, but still can not say if this is better or the cover Feuerschwanz did. Both a very good and imao not compareable, even if its the same song. Thanks for your reaction Chase.
Right in time, feeding my once again lit Ghost fire since the movie and new song
Honestly I love band so much and at this point like 95% of their song are reaction worthy for me and I wouldn't mind seeing videos on them
This one is a banger for sure!
Cirice is worth a closer listen. I think a re-reaction would be worth watching!
Check out live version
Ghost's movie Rite Here Rite Now is streaming on Veep on July 20. {i think it's the 20th, correct me if im wrong} but sooo worth checking out.
You need to catch them live if you have the opportunity.
Love this track so much.
Ah one of the best shows I've been to & the fans are so so lovely. My mate's band supported them so that was really cool
The hookiest song.
CIRICE, Year Zero, Mary on a Cross
I’m so happy for you! Ghost is amazing!
One of my favorites 🤘
I liked before I even saw the video. Because I like the song and I like this channel.
The video is an homage to Hammer Films, which made classic horror movies. I love the song and the video fits really well with it.
Ghost! Nice. :)
What a great band...
احب جميع اغاني هذه الفرقة
كلها جميلة ورائعة ومميزة
وبها لمحة من اغاني الروك الكلاسيكية
ذات الايقاع الفريد والذي يعلق بالذهن
انصحك ان تسمع جميع الاغاني التالية
😍😍😍😍🔥🔥
MY FUCKING DUDE
How incredible it this banger
Oh yeah, this one is a banger
Most of them are!
Recommendation: anything from the new Bilmuri album. I'm partial to 2016 CAVALIERS (Ohio) but its all very good.
If they could leave satan out, id soooo love them.
I mean, it’s all theatre and music.
Kiss "Music From the Elder" feel in this? Love it or hate it, it's damn good and memorable! Also had a little of Motley Crue very early stuff come to mind...... What's that at 6:22 (your video time)!! ? ;) jk.......
Ghost... I want to like them more than i actually do. They are obviously good at what they do but i just dont like the classic rock music personally. Funnily i would argue that Ghost does better (and more accurate) satanic than pretty much all black metal bands in existence :P
Yo Ghost just released a new song called The Future is a Foreign Land from their movie, please check it out it's hella catchy
🤘🔥🤘
I love your reaction bro !! Keep react ghost song hehehe
Appreciate it. There will be more Ghost I promise you that.
still waiting for KISS reactions..
Man you are not old 😅
I feel old haha
The fans are known as The Congregation
you just missed the movie
I believe so. Will have to hopefully find a way to watch it.
Shock shtick. Ugh.
Huh?
@@ChaseCarneson Demonic garbage. How's that?
I'm viewer 666😂
Hahaha YOU DID IT!
i absolutely love your reactions :) you always have such good criticism to give! i would LOVE to see you react to “Monstrance Clock” by Ghost. its been a favorite of mine ever since i got into the band☺️
