    I'm a 56 year old veteran of the hair band wars. A writer, musician, engineer and hard rock lover. I haven't loved a band since the early 90's but after decades of shrugging my shoulders whenever I heard new heavy music I've found Ghost. While i love the theatrics the music transcends all of that. Thank you, Ghost. My faith in rock and roll is restored.

    This recording really showcases how beautiful his voice is when he chooses to use it that way. (Other times he goes for different vocal sounds, always perfectly chosen to fit the song-he's so flexible it's hard to believe it's the same singer sometimes.) It's ironic that for their first demo he saw himself as a filler vocalist until a "real" singer could be found.

    He takes my breath in this performance. It is just so lovely. Something inside enables him to break down walls in people’s hearts and minds and give hope and comfort to those in pain. It’s like balm for the soul. It’s remarkable that he exudes such peace. What a gift he has, and how lucky we are that he gives so much of himself to us, for you know it is probably very complicated inside his head. Creative genius probably isn’t always comfortable to live with.

    For the uninitiated: Rocky Erickson is a highly unstable schizophrenic as, during his time in the 13th Floor Elevators - he took every hallucinogen under the sun and it brought out his predisposition to mental illness ten fold and he spent the next 20 years escaping from one mental institution to the next before being released and making music(my friend saw him a few months before he passed.) Now, back to Ghost: I find it unbelievably touching that Papa can invest so much emotion into lyrics that are essentially a bunch of gobbledygook/non sequitors. He really resurrects this song and it hits the hard hearts of young cynical fools like myself and clangs rhythm back into them! Thanks Rock, thank you Ghost for your contribution to music and the betterment of my life!

      The Emeritus brothers has a long history of feuding with Juan, mostly because they were pissed that he held the most employe of the month Awards. They finally bet him though when they convinced the Sister to appoint Copia, who held the second most Awards, as their new successor. Their father never discovered that it was their doing, wich would have meant great shame not only to him, but his father, his father's father, his father's father's father and HIS father! Juan still works in the ministry post office, struggling to feed a wife and seven Children, while Copia gloriously tours the Americas...

      +Epictemptation7 I agree for the most part. Although I have to point out a little something that's been bugging me with this version. The SOLO. The notes twang like mad and it just sounds nasty. It's kind of sad, since those guitars were made by Gibson. You'd think fret-leveling would be part of the manufacturing process before shipping them out.
      I'm sure a qualified luthier could've had those frets leveled for cheap so the notes would play clean without buzzing against the higher frets.

    • @Monkyman245
      @Monkyman245 8 років тому +1

It’s been YEARS since new music has really made a connection. There have been a few musicians since the early 90’s that I’ve loved but this is something different. There was a void where music should have been and Ghost has filled it in a big way. I’m kind of glad I found them years after they started because there is so much material to delve in to!! There is something magical in this music and the voice of Tobias Forge. Spellbound. I hope there are many more years and transitions of Ghost.
