Yeah saw that. Where is that pub anyone know? Mad to think a Ghost video was done there.

Ghost are still shit.
This song just confirms it even more for me.
I genuinely can't see the appeal of the band.

Haven't listened to the last album but the debut and Meliora are both great albums imo.

The last album was just a non event for me. It was just Ghost by the numbers but without any of stuff that makes them good. This just seems like a bit of an attempt to reinject some of the craic that was missing from a dull album.

By jaysus that's embarrassing for everyone involved (apart from Elliott, presumably - having been a member of Deaf Leopard is bad enough, but still being one? Jesus...). The previous Ghost album was mighty but this piece of shite...? No.

First time I've heard this band that I know of. Likely the last as well.

It's a poor song, they have a lot of those. Some decent stuff here and there though, Prequelle was a fun album.

Love most of Ghost stuff,it became very cool to start hating them about 5/6 years ago.Would liked to have caught them live before they became massive.

I only have 'Meliora' and 'Prequelle', loved the former, liked the latter.

This song, to my ears, could fit on 'Prequelle' quite easily. If you liked that album there's no reason you wouldn't like this, sounds like they're taking the pop angle and running even further with it. As someone else said, you like it or you don't, but it's nothing awful.

They're essentially ABBA with guitars and costumes. I seen them live and I liked the theatricality of it all. Not the biggest fan now, but I get the appeal. They can be quite catchy
