About the artist

Heavy Metal / Rock / Pop band from Sweden formed in 2008. They are known for their self-created mythology, their elaborate costumes, theatrical performances, and for keeping members anonymous. With a fictionalized lore, Ghost's backstory revolves around the anonymous musicians (listed in the release credits as "Nameless Ghouls"), and the frontman portrayed by Tobias Forge, who is 'replaced' at the end of each touring / album cycle.

Drawing influences from classic rock, classic metal, and pop bands such as Abba, Ghost merge the aforementioned genres with satanic themes.

Due to legal conflicts, the band was briefly obligated to release music under the Ghost B.C. name in the United States. They refused to use the name on any merchandise.

Papa Emeritus 0 (aka Papa Nihil) - Vocals, born in 1969, saxophone ("deceased" since 2020, but resurrected for live performances)
