This dropped sometime within the last week and since then I've habitually forgotten to post it here. Exceptional as usual. The "new" Papa certainly takes his gig more seriously than the previous one did. No hedonistic Vegas outings for this guy - all dark work. And we're all the better for it.
Holy cow! Following the link to the Loud Wire that I referenced in my previous "From the Pinnacle to the Pit" post but had not read completely until just now, I realize how much I've missed on the developments in this completely awesome and bizarre band. This aired on VH1 in late May, during a late-night broadcast of Caddy Shack.
What?
This is the kind of marketing that I absolutely love and will endear me to Ghost even more. If that's possible.
Read the Loud Wire article linked above for more deets.
AWESOME! And, more so than on Circe, the other track to surface so far from forthcoming record Meliora (pre-order here),on From The Pinnacle to the Pit you can very much tell that we once again have a new Papa Emeritus(number III for those counting along).
The fact that Ghost have switched singers for each of their three records is just stunning to me. I'll admit it's going to be hard to beat Papa II, however if this track shows a bit of bite to the vocals and Circe shows his 'sweet', melodic side, I'm really going to love this record as much as the other two. After seeing the video for Circe it has really grown to be one of my favorite Ghost tracks.
