[@joshuataylor1064]

Love everything ghost but in my opinion the Infesstisumam era was the best

[@harbinger7115]

true,the set,the black cloaks,making it scary af.

[@endoffate5475]

Best album.

The intro that plays before infestissuman is amazing, it makes the atmosphere so bizarre.

Ahhh... It is so GREAT to see OMEGA here on the stage. He is the guitarist on the far left onstage, and he plays great and has so much "charisma" and you can just see that it is him by his ways of turning his head a certain way. The man is just so talented and will always be the "greatest Ghoul that ever was". The newer ghouls are good, BUT, OMEGA will NEVER be outdone or "topped".

[@PoraoDoBrazilian]

I'd really wished the older ghouls made amends with Tobias so they'd be back in the band, as much as I like the current ones

[@juliegogola4647]

@@PoraoDoBrazilian Yeah, but, after the lawsuit, I doubt that some would ever be asked back. Martin Persner aka Omega hadn't been a part of the lawsuit, so, MAYBE he'd be asked back, but, he has MCC as his band now, so, maybe he'd decline anyway.

[@jebadiahfyefye8994]

@@PoraoDoBrazilian if you knew what a few of them say about ghost now you wouldn’t want them back. Only martin has given Tobias his credit.

[@JoTek730]

I discovered this band right after Ceremony and Devotion came out. I’ve been to two rituals since, but I wish I discovered them during the Infestissumam era.

[@harbinger7115]

yeah,we found the band too late xd

[@ed16skts]

I got to see them at the tail end of this era. So badass. Not the same now.

[@michael2cortez]

I was lucky that they played a show in my hometown in this Era cause I was still in high school and that show is something I'll never forget!

[@t77snapshot]

I just saw them live in LA last week. This marks my 5th time seeing them, but I've been listening to their music since the release of Infestissumam. Although the 2023 show was good, it just isn't the same sadly. I truly do miss the dark side of Ghost

[@TheRealConcertKing]

Yeah the atmosphere of the shows back then was much better. It actually felt like a ritual. I still have a good time at the arena and amphitheater shows but it's just a cool rock concert. The last time I had the feeling like it was more than just a rock concert was at the show in Riverside in May 2018 right before Prequelle came out. But the shows for Infestissumam and Meliora were just perfect.

[@jmannxiiiaaron]

I was there too (the second night) in LA and I felt the same about it except I never got to see them live before Prequelle sadly so all I have to go on are videos like these lol. I'm happy for their success, but the commercialization of them and over-production is a turn off at times. I much prefer their first 3 albums.

[@darkais776]

This generation's black sabbath. These guys are fucking amazing!

[@deadstar44]

"WERE fucking amazing". All those guys got shafted from Ghost.

[@DylanKarbo]

deadstar44 They weren’t even writers, they were just background musicians. Tobias wrote everything. Ghost is still kicking it

I love these guys they put on the best concert awesome show. took both my kids it was there very first concert ❤

The black guitar ghost is the god

[@Adventuresthroughtime]

whats the true meaning to the song

[@RandomCanEHdian]

_Infestissumam_ is about Satan's coming and the threat he poses to Earth. The second song, _Per Aspera ad Inferi_ is about working hard and focusing on your passions, but that your passions are sinful, and will result in damnation.
