Ghost - Dance Macabre (BBC Session 2019)

[@HeyItsHyper]

I’ve seriously fallen head over heels for this band

[@shinigamilovesgames]

I fell in love with them immediately! They've quickly become one of my favorite bands overnight

[@Kaif-nfoxx]

Same. Cannot stop listening to the..

[@inxj5915]

YEAAAH

[@MLettuce.]

I think we all can agree that Ghost won "our" Grammy.

[@KatieKanitz-n5y]

This band deserves everything. It's been an over a decade climb to the top, but they've officially "made it". Ghost is going down in rock history. Tobias Forge is a creative genius.

[@jaskierdraven9191]

When the Ghoulette joins In around the 3 minute mark, oh I love her voice. And the passion that can be head in Tobias's is absolutely phenomenal.

[@Leo-in1gt]

What makes this version better than the album version? The flaws. His off key notes every once in a while, the realness in his voice, the fact it's imperfect is what makes this metal and what makes it amazing!

[@ilhamsyamsuddin]

It makes him human, and thus relatable to us mortals

[@Leo-in1gt]

@@ilhamsyamsuddin exactly, though he's still a fantastic singer, mistakes make us realize if we try hard enough even we can reach his level of skill.

[@rictusmetallicus]

Is this "metal". Extremely good Rock music, abbaesque , but metal like in "heavy metal"? Not quite.

[@asshattery]

@@rictusmetallicus "metal" or not, the theme matches the masterpiece of an album that is prequelle! There are a million metals, Ghost just about have their own.

[@charismao23]

I wouldn’t say this band is necessary metal but rather “rock”, symphonic to sone degree, alternative.

[@rachaelburdick8191]

How do they sound just as good in live performances as in the studio? It's so rare to find bands that can do that these days. Ghost is so damn talented. I only discovered them a few weeks ago and I'm already hooked. Hope I can see them live someday.

[@PrisOwner16]

I've been to four concerts of them and every time they sounded amazing. And live they sound even more metal, where some songs are a bit mellow on the album, they really come alive on stage. If you get the opportunity to see them live: do it!

[@jaywebi2473]

Ghost is the best, it’s the only band that I prefer live songs than studio ones, that's why ceremony and devotion is the best for me

[@dhunter1133]

I can only offer that, being Swedish, Tobias likely sinks a lot of money into stage production. What does being Swedish have to do with anything? Simple: Sweden has the highest marginal tax rate at the top bracket: 95%. So rather than focus on profits, most of which his government would take, he sinks all of his money into the quality of his product. In some ways, Tobias Forge is a modern-day Tom Scholz, who cares more about perfecting the sound than making money.

[@tommcdonald1873]

And to think Tobias did not want to sing and front this band at its inception. Now the band is his! And it may be the best rock band in the world.

[@liquidjonathon6639]

Tom McDonald i wonder if it was because he wasn’t confident he could sing or if he just didnt think his voice was what he envisioned for the band

[@abigailvastano3085]

Liquid Jonathon he fronted another band, so I don’t think it was the singing aspect lmao

[@ИгорьДушкин-ш1к]

@@liquidjonathon6639 in interviews he said that he's more of a guitarist, he'd love to be in the back, where "Swiss" stand, or multi-ghoul. And be just guitarist and maybe back-vocalist.

[@lucilovecraft1621]

The best and most original rock band since the early 90s. You can hear all the influences of the classic metal, Rock, Prog Rock and Pop of the past filtered into the vision that is ghost. Outstanding ✌️

[@thomasericson5318]

Billy Beattie That’s crazy. I said the exact same thing. They are the most interesting thing to come out of music since the 90’s! Definitely a new guilty pleasure.

[@lucilovecraft1621]

Thomas Ericson totally I love them

Tobias is the best thing that ever happened to music!💞💞

[@onenightstandbaltimore4456]

Fuck that sawtooth keyboard part you start to hear around 1:17, I never noticed that on the 1000 times I’ve listened to the album version or seeing them live. New respect and admiration for a song I didn’t think I could like any more than I already did.

[@splash5427]

It was added on the single version. The b-side to the remix

[@pandarsons4203]

Its on the studio album as well. Just listen really hard :)

[@adendowd2611]

I saw Tobias didn’t win either Grammy. That’s Sad but we still have the best fucking band ever!!! Ghost to me easily has the best fan basis. I went to one of there concerts and the people were amazing to be around. I’m so proud to say I love ghost and get to be part of this community. Forge to me deserved the Grammy but I might be biased lol. Thanks so much for all the love!!!!!

[@GhostTrainPhoto]

I was livid that they didn't win

[@splash5427]

Person formerly the best fan base. It’s gone downhill these past 4 years or so

[@adendowd2611]

Anthony Dailey you know maybe your right. By no means am I trying to be rude but I think ghost does still. I have some stories I don’t really want to share online but there’s been times where ghost fans have always been there for me. I will always think ghost has the best fans:)

[@splash5427]

Person there’s fantastic fans... and then sons not so fantastic fans who over sexualize the band

[@matthewcorcoran4718]

[@moafu]

One of the more interesting statements related to Ghost is that it is an indicator of the knowledge and skill of creating music precisely in the fact that they are interesting to listeners who are not interested in such a genre, both thematically and musically.

[@YodaMan-420]

if you have ghost....you have everything.

[@GhostTrainPhoto]

That guitar solo!

[@patriciorodriguez8661]

Se nota claramente que Tobias esta cantando sin mascara, excelente versión.

[@angelaburrow8114]

Tienes razon. Me encanta la imagen del grupo pero la masara estropea su canto.

[@redhotchilifan98]

The talent of this band is truly unreal so thankful i became a fan of them over a year ago they are so incredible in their musicianship theatricality its blue oyster cult early black sabbath scorpions all wrapped into one Tobias is an incredible showman and singer

I'm glad to have been an early supporter of everything Tobias has done in music, riding this train from early bootlegged sessions of his original band to the titan that Ghost is becoming. Proud to see you again in Hershey this october!

[@Memu_]

I honestly think they're the greatest band out there currently

[@coupdegras107]

This set is an excellent showcase of the new album and the new lineups ability.

Ghost (Tobias) lost 2 Grammys tonight... I'm so sad 😭

[@danielthepper3766]

Much better rock feeling in this live version compared to the squeaky clean album version!

[@gabrix2011]

Thats because the mask makes him sound noisy when his is live

[@superpotiron]

@@gabrix2011 I think that this nasal sound is intentional, in order to give Cardinal a threatening voice.

[@GinoBtheman]

superpotiron he changes the voice with every character. He still can do the papa ll voice he just does a different style

It doesnt, he writes the guitar riffs and most lyrics and also plays guitar on the records but he always has a full band that writes as well as composers and classical musicians hired to do some stuff off the prequel album.

Well part of it it's because it is properly mixed and not a shitty live phone recording and I also think he's singing without the mask, which gives him more freedom.

Reminds me of The Scorpions ... in a good way

[@francoislansival]

In studio version it's even more "obvious" ( and that's so good) because his voice sounds like Klaus Meine, but I love this version here too. Musically, I like to think Dance Macabre is the hidden son of "Rock you like a hurricane" and "big city nights"
