March 31st 2018 saw the release of the Chapter One: New Blood video with Sister Imperator informing Papa Nihil (formerly Papa Emeritus Zero) that it was time for new blood to lead Ghost. Songs featured are Ashes, Faithand Pro Memoria. The note that Papa Nihil attempts to play on the saxophone (he gets it a little wrong due to his health) seems to be the same note that the Lazy Town song We Are Number One begins with, something we parodied on our YouTube channel. We Are Number One was a huge meme in late 2016 and 2017 as fans raised money for actor Stefan Karl Steffanson to help with his battle with cancer.

Clear/Red swirl (Limited, 300 copies in Germany, total could be more) available from kingsroadmerch.com [SOLD OUT?], jbhifi.com, velvetmusic.nlThank you for reading this guide to Ghost’s Prequelle by Gear4Geeks, you can buy Ghost merchandise in our store. Below there be spoilers! Prequelleis finally upon us and this will be the first Ghost Ultimate Guide. As with all Ghost articles on Gear4Geeks, we attempt to preserve the mystique of the band where possible though there will be references to behind the scenes details because of their influence on the album and due to the man behind Ghost now going by his real name in interviews. Citations are as follows: anything hyperlinked should be safe from spoilers whereas anything that includes band member identities or pictures of them unmasked will have a footnote citation. There are mega spoilers, even for hardcore fans included at the very end of the footnotes. I’ve made every effort for the guide to remain free of serious spoilers but external links are beyond my control and could change or feature spoiler comments so please use your discretion. Discussion of the people behind the masks and the music projects of ex members can be found in the Ghost Uncensored Facebook group. The ultimate guide to Prequelle, the fourth album by Swedish band Ghost with no spoilers to ruin the band mythos. There also seems to be an homage of sorts to one of the paintings from the 15th century Hours of Catherine of Cleves manuscript in the Hellmouth depicted below the Pope. Well, that'll depend on tastes: as with the Simmons' bunch, I'm not a devoted fan and own just a couple of their albums. I believe there's plenty of bands out there deserving more attention than Tobias Forge's ghouls.

Papa III seems to have put on some weight since stopping touring, coincidentally a former Ghoul also put on weight by his own admission after stopping touring. To confuse matters, the passages above do not name the Horsemen but their names seem to be Conquest, War, Famine and Death. With Conquest and War being essentially the same thing, it was debated that the last sentence of the description for Death was of the Horsemen as a whole, not just Death. Add to this, Revelations was written John of Patmos, Patmos being a Greek island where John would have been exposed to the legends of the Greek Gods including Apollo. Apollo is thought to be the same God as the Hittite and Hurrian God Aplu, the God of Plague and Apollo is said to have spread plague via arrows he would shoot from his bow.

Tracklist

In addition to breaking tradition with the cover, Ghost broke with the traditional Latin naming for the album by using the French word for Prequel but the biggest change was the band itself. The Ghost version was done in the style of Killing Joke 9 and ironically, for a band that uses a lot of Latin, omits the Latin spoken passage at the end of the song. It’s a Sin Lyrics I watched as the Lamb opened the first of the seven seals. Then I heard one of the four living creatures say in a voice like thunder, “Come and see!” I looked, and there before me was a white horse! Its rider held a bow, and he was given a crown, and he rode out as a conqueror bent on conquest. ( Revelation 6:1-2)

The first song confirmed for the album was Rats. While it would appear that the song was quite literal in being about the rodents that spread the Plague, the song is in fact more of a metaphor for how something would spread, whether it be a disease, panic, information, ideas or religion. When pressed on the subject, Ghost have admitted that the song is about trial by social media and how in the wake of the lawsuit being announced, the man behind Ghost was judged by many fans and demonised. 5 It is safe to say that the 21 months between Popestarand Prequelle were somewhat stressful for Ghost. There are some huge positives like another Grammi win, a tour with Iron Maiden and Square Hammer being played virtually everywhere from radio stations to football games but the negatives are equally big as the band suffers a huge schism in personnel. The musical credits on Prequelle followed usual Ghost procedure with the Nameless Ghouls credited for the music, vocals accredited to Cardinal Copia and saxophone by Papa Nihil. Other musicians who played on the album include:Some of the piano sequences seem to be influenced by Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Jesus Christ Superstar musical, specifically the titular song which is also known as The Song of Judas. For those who aren’t musically inclined, it is easier to hear the similarity at the 3 minute mark when compared to Laibach’s cover of Jesus Christ Superstar as the piano arrangement is louder. Start from around 3:50 onwards. Gold (Limited, total number unknown.
