Ghost Kaisarion (HD)

[@peterdanklage6286]

I’ve been following Ghost since I heard about them in the Meliora era when I was a freshman in High School. I looked into Opus and Infestissumam and liked what I heard there; I also said I love the progression both musically and production. Then Prequelle released and while at first I had mixed feelings because of the differences with the new era (ex.: no papa but Cardinal Copia) but eventually the standout elements to Prequelle grew onto me and I love that album and era but was excited for this album’s release once Hunter’s Moon released. Now seeing the direction the band is going with this new Impera era has combined the appreciation I have for both Meliora and Prequelle. This is my favorite album from the band (and of 2022 so far) and Kaiserion is quickly becoming one of my favorite songs, the blend of originality and familiarity both from other musical elements and from the band themselves is beautiful. I know I am praising this band a lot and while I can’t say they are perfect, they are truly fun and worth the fandom. At this point the only complaint I have is that this band isn’t touring in more states and cities in the U.S. I want to immerse myself in the Ghost experience and wish they would perform somewhere more convenient for me to travel to. I’m aware that not everyone is going to see eye-to-eye with me, but I want to share my appreciation for Ghost and the clergy as a whole.

[@leskimball6665]

Right there with ya man!!! although...I love every track on IMPERA my go to..roll down the windows..so everyone can hear it track is Watcher in the sky!!

[@derekloughlin5889]

Totally agree with your sentiment Peter. Having said that I am very fortunate to have a ticket for them in Glasgow on the 13th April.

[@JoinTheProgress]

Yeah, the American tour is a bummer, they didn't even come to any stop in New York to my knowledge. I've wondered how they figure out where they're going to go based on their stage show, we have a perfect venue for them here in western NY (same size as the above arena) but I have no idea what sales would be like. Also still trying to figure out their demographic (I'm middle age, 80's kid). They had some national exposure on Jimmy Kimmel (mentioning that monumental POS only to promote Ghost, hate the guy) but I don't see any promotions outside of that in the US. P.S. Loved you in Game of Thrones. ;p

[@extremelightningstrike5184]

Very well said and I couldn’t agree more. This album is killer. Thanks for sharing this video. I love to watch the beginning over and over to bring back the memories and the feelings of the start of the show. Not only is their music amazing so is the show that they put on. They rock you, they love you, they make you laugh and maybe make you cry happy tears. It truly is a spectacle.

[@mariki3]

[@matthewjames6414]

I agree!! Do you know who Hypatia is? If not google the name and read her story. I feel this song is an ode to her

[@neuralmute]

@@matthewjames6414 I read a couple of interviews where Tobias was talking all about how this song is a sort of reminder of what the early Christians did to Hypatia of Alexandria, and what the Church has been doing to intelligent, independent women since then. I'd definitely call it both a sort of requiem for Hypatia, and also a condemnation of both her killers, and the people around now who would do the same.

[@scottsteel2395]

Tobias has once again taken it to a whole new level. This band just continues to evolve in the most incredible ways. Musically, theatrically, artistically, and conceptually. A truly stunning group.

[@1cedcoffee]

in a span of 5 albums and a a bit over 10 years (and probably honestly 4 albums and 8-9 years) this band has gone from playing in bars and small venues to headlining arenas - and for a good reason, absolutely impressive

[@Cantstandtherock]

Ghost is maturing and becoming more prog metal! Maiden used to be a punk but they evolved. Without evolution I get bored and Tobias is constantly going into new territory! Keep it up and my 55 year old self will be a fan for many years to come!

[@whiskeyrichards9973]

Maiden was punk? Are you talking about Iron Maiden? Even their earliest album with Paul at the helm of lead vocals isn't punk. The musical elements alone should signify their difference from the punk scene of that Era. Their lyrics only solidify that argument. I'm not trying to be a dick but you have to realize that the punk and eventually the grunge movement were the very epitome of what Iron Maiden fought against, and not because they hated punk music but for the preservation and continued success of their band. I can see how one might confuse their earliest music for something that might have a fleeting resemblance to thrash or punk but they are not one in the same.

[@macgruberyahfrigginturds7044]

@@Daniel413Lee Ghost are right up there for me. The only thing I can compare them to as far as the full experience goes is seeing Nine Inch Nails on their Downward Spiral tour in the mid 90's, with the Jim Rose Circus opening. Or the time I saw Soundgarden and Pearl Jam open for Neil Young. That was in '93, and Chris Cornell still had long hair. Skinny Puppy and Ministry together hit pretty hard too, and I can't ignore The Cure's near 3 hr. sets around that time. But damn, Ghost know how to put on a show like most bands these days (except for a few, thinking of Tool and Rammstein here...) just can't fathom. Ghost are great musicians AND performers at the same time!
