I don't remember where I heard it, but Ghost is Bon Jovi for theater kids.
They're still great though

Memes. For metal music.
Don't be an ass and try to keep the gatekeeping and whatnot to a minimum. Memes from all sorts of metal genres and bands are welcome here.

That's good hahaha. I've liked the comparison of Ghost being the dark version of ABBA.
I always say it’s ABBA metal (in the absolute best way possible)
Ghost is Scooby Doo metal and I fucking love it.
In their concert movie they included an animated chase scene done in classic scooby doo style. I lost my shit.
Haven't seen that(or maybe I don't remember it, although it does sound familiar), but I will say that their show was one of the most fun shows I've ever seen. One memorable bit(googling it now, it seems to have been a hit with many people) was that they had a sort of confetti Cannon that shot fake money. Managed to get one; pretty cool memorabilia. Especially in this day and age when physical concert tickets are rarer. I still have the ticket from my first concert(and all the other subsequent ones)
And that's awesome. I don't like standing at concerts so I've never been close enough to get any money. But yeah, best live concerts I've ever seen.
Quality trolling. Ghost is barely metal, it's basically hard rock.
The proper genre is "Halloween glam rock."
I will not be taking questions at this time.
Cough
I don't hate them. I actually kinda like a few of their singles. But them being considered metal is beyond the pale. Hard rock maybe, but definitely not metal.
Yeah I like them too, seen them live twice!
Possibly the biggest douchebag I'll ever meet was really into Ghost.
Waaaait, I'm not the only one that had this (2.) band recommended by the algo? xD
I've listened to them since the first album tbh
Nice
If I remember correctly from when I checked them out after the recommendation, that they only have one album that came out this year, right?
No? Their first album released in 2010. They've released 6 albums in total
Ok what am I missing, I just checked their Encyclopaedia Metallum page again, and it shows that album as their only one. Same for Spotify and YouTube Music.
You're probably looking at the wrong entry, probably multiple bands with the name. https://www.metal-archives.com/bands/Ghost/3540309157
Edit: here they are on Spotify https://open.spotify.com/artist/1Qp56T7n950O3EGMsSl81D
Ooh now I get it.
I was talking about Draugveil the whole time, they were recommended to me at random and so I thought it funny to also see them pop up in a meme.
Of course Ghost is older and has many albums.
Haha, I was really confused at first😃
