Ghost - Square Hammer REACTION & REVIEW! FIRST TIME HEARING!

[@absea7918]

Great reaction review. As for the Satanic angle, bandleader Tobias Forge has said that no one in the band is Satanic, but the band is. They have many songs about the devil, but it's done for show, and is about as scary as Scooby Doo. What they do best is write amazing songs, catchy and fun. Their albums are very consistent, rarely a weak track. They also put on excellent live shows.

[@embraceyourweirdness70]

I saw them live and I completely agree...

[@papaskazoo5860]

I don’t know where you’re getting that he has never specifically said he wasn’t Satanic. If anything, he has said that the Devil is his role model.

[@JohnMegaton2062]

They’re satanic or they wouldn’t sing about it…repeatedly. That’s like saying I’m only a bank robber while wearing my mask.

[@storytellingsnek5255]

@@papaskazoo5860 You can be an atheist or whatever and still hold the mythological/metaphorical Lucifer as a role model. I watched that interview.

[@lorenabull]

Ghost's live show is fire! Tobias is a fantastic entertainer!

[@fireofthedoom]

I absolutely love bands like Tool for their complexity. That said I absolutely love Ghost for their simplicity. Discovered them a few months ago and haven't stopped listening to them since. Which proves a point that just because something is simple doesn't mean it's bad.

[@nicci4724]

Ghost is all about the simplicity. He is totally about the catchy. He is amazing live.

[@Lazarus_Cardinalis]

Some songs. They do have quite a lot of proggy songs with deep themes too!

[@robertgrimstadjr7785]

Ghost isn’t a he. It’s not just about Tobias. Yes it is his band but if you have paid attention, he has upgraded the band with better musicians. I saw them on their pre imperator tour and I was very impressed

[@nicci4724]

@@robertgrimstadjr7785 Sorry, when I was in Sweden, watching interviews, it was always He.

[@zwerger]

Miasma, an absolutely amazing instrumental. Ghost is a very special beast

[@Hamish_Whitehaven]

Majesty is also awesome

[@Fitchie69]

Yes, my favorite on Prequel

[@davidcanty7903]

Ghost is one of those bands that's hard to classify, but they put on a great show. I first saw them opening for Iron Maiden, and then two stand alone shows.

[@LuckyRMST]

I think you pretty much nailed Ghost's whole image with this reaction. It's quite simple, but very effective and catchy. They often get critised for not being "metal" enough and well there is some truth to that, but it's catchy as hell. They are more and more called the metal version of Abba. And yes they do have a whole devil-themed image, which is their whole gimmick, which is another critique they have gotten, but it's pretty cool, and they have an amazing stage show and costume design! And well I say they, but in reality there is only 1 band member, who is the singer. He writes all the songs alone (almost all the songs), and pays musicians to go on stage with him and play some parts in studio :) Can't wait for you to check out more!

[@frlolz]

Exactly! They’re a theatrical band and as I understood the whole devil worshipping thing is a huge jokey gimmick and should be taken ironically as entertainment factor and maybe even as a bit of a societal critique with a wink 🤭 I feel like the band doesn’t take themselves too seriously and I love that about them :D

[@Randomperson19001]

My absolute favorite band! I saw them 11 years ago in my home town in Sweden when only a few songs had become popular. I was standing all the way in the front because the crowd was so small. I was hooked instantly! Regarding his vocals- he actually never intended to be the singer himself. He wanted to play the guitar like he had done in previous bands, but he simply didn’t find a vocalist that he felt would fit his vision for the band.

[@HavingHighGround]

And this is what makes Ghost a great band to me, they are catchy as hell with alot of their songs! Even if you don’t really like the song, it’s bound to get stuck in your head 😊

[@norair1010]

Was about to say something similar. Every Ghost song is a giant hook.

[@AJ-kk9xi]

6:42 The little nod of recognition, immediately followed by that double-take lmao Great insight on the song, always love seeing reactions to Ghost! The vocal and music style isn't for everyone, but I think it's what makes them really unique. Tobias Forge is the king of catchy hooks

[@BG-vx5gf]

It's pop music delivered in a heavy metal package and I'm here for it.

[@lorireynolds3540]

I just discovered Ghost a few months ago and I love them. Dance Macabre, Rats, He is, Mary on a Cross, Spillways, Griftwood and Darkness at the Heart of my Love are some of my favorites. You need to watch their video shorts chapters 1 through 14, they're hilarious.

[@1996gameking]

The Lead Singer has definitely improved in vocal skills since this song came out, last time I saw then live everything sounded full and amazing. I think the reason he sang it that was at first was because when performing it live back then the masks would block some of his voice so he might have sang in that was so the live version would not be to different from the album version. But nowadays it seems he has the mask perfected to the point where it no longer limits his vocals.

[@LLiivveeeevviiLL]

I read that Tobias actually put down some time training on his singing too.

[@wolfhawk1999]

My favorite Ghost track is this one or "He Is". They are delightfully catchy, which goes with their whole story. They are trying to sell people on worshipping the devil, so they write fun and poppy songs to get you singing about the devil without even realizing it haha it's all a gag, but it's a good one

[@djmelotte8220]

Thank you sooooo much! I’m so glad you enjoyed the song!!! I absolutely love this band and would love to see more Ghost reactions from you. Thank you again ❤

[@MetalNCarnet]

I like you're going to love Ghost. I dig their vibe and their sound. I request their song Year Zero next. I'm sure you'll get to many of them soon enough.

[@Tre1386]

I have never seen someone react and breakdown a ghost song like you sir and I loved it, ghost is full of wonderful surprises and keep impressing you. I liked and subscribed in hopes you will continue to react more to ghost, I don’t think you will be disappointed.

[@farkas9476]

Very important to say, that Tobias Forge (lead singer) is the Band. He is writing everything and do most of the studio work. For some instruments he gets himself some help. The nameless ghouls are just there to play it live and constantly change. (That's why they're wearing masks) Really appreciate the video and I'll be back for sure for the next one.

[@arcanos9706]

You are hearing it right David Heretic. He is saying that line in the chorus as you heard it.

[@Wagoo]

Ghost has always been a Satanic project, and that theme runs through the albums. The scenario you describe with the record company and changing a few words didn't happen. Mainly they got noticed through uploads to MySpace.. and it took off from there.. suddenly the singer/songwriter had to work out how to go on tour so formed a band to do it. However, the band members were in previous bands together and those projects were less overtly Satanic in nature. The singer and main song writer (and only original band member these days, as there was a big bust up over money right before Ghost really took off in popularity sadly) did have a death metal band before Ghost, though The stage show is also Satanic, I won't spoil it though as I'm sure you'll get to further Ghost songs down the line 👻 The idea behind the band was something like: Satan ordered a band formed to make new worshippers by spreading the word of Satan.. and so the band's mission was to become as popular as possible.. hence the music is often very catchy You can think of it as tongue-in-cheek Scooby-doo Satanism, though.. they're not out in the woods sacrificing chickens at night. It's a Swedish band and going to church isn't really popular in Europe like it is still for some reason in the US, we left that behind in the 20th century. But going to a Ghost show (called a ritual) is fun to tickle some of those being in a church for some reason neurons.. with the frankincense burning and so on

[@metatron333ascension]

Ghost song writting is unmatched. very catchy and melody sticks in your head. If you listen to the renditions done on different instruments they still all sound good. it translates very well to other instruments and different styles. ive renditions in folk music style to Edm style and everything in between.

[@magnusblomqvist966]

Being on the square and level are expressions the freemasons use. As is the Square Hammer and many more in this lyrics. Tobias joined the Swedish Freemasons a couple of years back and took inspiration of things from that. The song was written because Tobias thought Ghost needed a big opener for the shows and it was used for that for a long time. Now he uses it and Dance Macabre to close the show. Square Hammer was named best metal song of the decade by Loudwire Magazine and was a Billboard Mainstream Rock number one single. Try Spillways next i think you're gonna like it ❤️

[@keithspillman]

I met Tobias at a "Meet and Greet" before a show in Asheville, NC. He of course had his mask on, but we did talk briefly about Masonry and he wished me well in my journey. Pretty cool.

[@SquirrelDarling1]

Yeah I picked up on the Free Mason angle of the song. I love the video, very entertaining with the old time vampire theme and Papa playing Dracula.

[@danielpavlik7242]

When I heard the song for the first time, I literally couldnt drop it out of my head for ther rest of the month. Not just day :D

[@CosmicFishbowl]

Ghost is a deep well. I would highly recommend you do “Ritual” next. It’s classic Ghost from their first album with a great retro vibe. It sounds like it could have been recorded in 1976. After that listen to Cirice, Year Zero, and He Is.

[@JohnMegaton2062]

It has one of the best guitar riffs around, but you have to ignore the lyrics. I appreciate their musical talent and song writing talents for sure.

[@gaminggamer2594]

Ghost is extremely catchy and well-made scooby doo chase music. If you're looking for other Ghost songs, Spillways, Rats, Mary on a Cross, and Call Me Little Sunshine are ones to check out.

[@thechloechronicles9688]

And Faith

[@rdh1130]

I like his simple vocals. Easy to sing along to.

[@katiehambrick3966]

Ghost is so simple yet so complex. I would recommend you reacting to their love recordings of either their single Call Me Little Sunshine on the Kimmel Show, or their official video of Mary On A Cross live in Tampa, just to see their stage presence & live vocal performance! I’ve seen Ghost 3 times, best show I’ve ever seen. Great reaction!

[@jamesgreen5431]

That Mary on a Cross in Tampa is just as catchy, brilliantly crafted a song as you can get.

[@dolarhyde]

“Cirice” is probably the song that many people including myself enjoy from them. If you haven’t heard it I would recommend giving it a quick listen. It definitely has significantly more of a metal/rock sound than square hammer. Also both square hammer and cirice are fun to play on guitar.

[@pablorivero9270]

It´s was nice watching you playing with the song! I hope this a start of Ghost´s Reactions! I would like one day watch you react their song called "Cirice"

[@thundervisionmt5699]

Just wait until you catch on to the whole lore of this band. The brilliance goes far beyond the songs themselves 🤘

[@Lazarus_Cardinalis]

Tobias Forge, the main composer, sincger and multi instrumentalist of the band, has indeed a pretty nasal voice, however throughout the albums you can see him deliberately changing his voice both because of practice and because he plays different characters. On stage he wears a sillicone mask that, because of the pressure on tje nose, accentuates that nasal aspect a bit.

[@alekseiiagunkov5899]

This is definitely one of the biggest songs for Ghost. And they are damn good! Hopefully you'll revisit them soon for more absolutely insane catchiness. Recommendations might include "Dance Macabre", "Rats" and "Spillways". Also there was the breakthrough tune for them called "Cirice" something different for you with a little bit darker sound 😉🤘

[@germantoenglish898]

He loves playing with words, "Rite here, Rite now". He does it in Dance Macabre too "Wanna bewitch you in the moonlight".

[@thenamelessghuleh]

Enjoyed the review! I just wanted to offer a couple of answers to some things you brought up. Sorry if it winds up a book, but I’ll try to keep it short! 1) Square Hammer was huge for Ghost. It wasn’t even on a main album. It was the opening track on an EP of cover songs, and managed to get #1 on Billboard’s US Mainstream Rock chart. 2) Tobias has had a deviated septum since he was a teenager, so his voice tends to be nasally in general. That being said, he can really open up and has gotten much better over the years as a singer. I’d say both intentional and an effect of layering his vocals. 3) Tobias posted a 3 song demo onto MySpace in 2010 with nothing but a picture of the band’s logo, and got contacted within a couple of days by record labels and managers. Nothing about the songs were changed when the full album was made. The gimmick was in place a couple of years beforehand. He thought music like that did not sound like something that should be coming out of a guy that looked like him, so the masked band thing was born. 4) It’s all theater and entertainment, and they’ve said as much many times. If anything, they’re a parody of the Catholic Church. It’s like wrestling. Keeping kayfabe is half the fun. As to living as a Satanist, Tobias has claimed that Satan (more the pop-culture version rather than Biblical) has been a mentor figure for him since he was a pre-teen, and represents for him freedom, rebellion, rock, etc. He doesn’t call himself or anyone in the band a Satanist, though. The band itself is. Anyway, I’m looking forward to checking out some more of your videos!

[@HavingHighGround]

Finally! I’ve been waiting for this one ✌🏼

[@des5592]

Ghost is the perfect love child of ABBA and Satan. Early Ghost reminds me of Black Sabbath’s debut album. Later Ghost reminds me of Queensrych. Anyways! It’s hard to find a bad Ghost song. Maybe pull up the lyrics in the future. Tobias is a cheeky songwriter. Cheers!

[@mjjohansson1702]

Listened to their first album a lot back in 2010. They often give me Blue Öyster Cult vibes. Very catchy. Was a big mystery of who these guys were back then.

[@Kido791]

If you like Square Hammer, I can tell you're going to love song like 'Cirice' or 'Life Eternal' or 'Call me little sunshine' ^^ I love what you do David, it's alway a pleasure to discover group and music thanks to you ^^

[@obscuraapit]

Ghost knows the perfect alchemy of writing songs. There are nuances in their sound that you either never expect to hear nor expect to work but they make it work to perfection.

[@keithspillman]

Have seen them four times live. The first was when they opened for Iron Maiden and started the set with Square Hammer. Me and the wife were both "hooked" at that point. Many catchy tunes and a great live band. I always equate Tobias as an actor playing a vampire or demon....such as Vincent Price or Bela Lugosi playing a part in a "show". Thanks for the reaction!!

[@Hamish_Whitehaven]

Live is always a super good feel show, also the Fans there are one of the best people.

Good evening from New England.. Ghost uses tons of satanic imagery in their lyrics and stage craft but it's all for fun..I've seen many interviews with the singer and he explained that its used to shock pll...

[@IllegallySighted]

My first introduction to this band was, I saw them open for iron maiden a few years ago, and this was one of the first songs I've heard from them. I've been hooked ever since. These guys have some truly catchy songs!

[@chaddubois8164]

Great live show, I saw them on the Prequel tour. Great theatrical stage show , worth the ticket even if you don't like the music. They are heavier live because the guitar comes through more than on the recordings. Go see them live! you won't be disappointed!

[@nicci4724]

Twelve Foot Ninja - One Hand Killing. I swear, you’ll love it! Please. Honestly I think you’ll love them.

[@klaymor73]

Define Ghost: Catchy. They're so freakin good.

[@thechloechronicles9688]

Hook is exactly the right word. I'm totally hooked. Like addiction hooked. You should check out one of their concerts. I went to 4 before covid and when they were in Utah I went to the Maverick center with my brother who's actually a musician who's opened for many of the big acts and has played the Whiskey a Go Go etc. He's also done some behind the scenes soundwork for many musicians. He said it was in his top 3 of impressive concerts and he's notoriously critical.

[@tonamg53]

This song stuck in my head since 2016…

[@__RYN__]

[@CorTec]

Simple music that works is the sign of a master

[@davemc8021]

Keep going, Ghost has no shortage of earworms

[@chrisdunlap5482]

The band has an invented lore that they've existed since the 60s trying to convert the world to Satanism through catchy rock songs sung by their evil pope. It's a perfect mix of campy horror and well written songs. Every album or so they change or kill the front man and get a new singer with a new personality. It's just the same singer in a new mask with new makeup. Their music is hard to categorize, but their live show is fantastic. You should try Cirice or Year Zero for some sinister songs...or He Is if you want to hear a Contemporary Christian style song about Lucifer. There's a lot of great music here.

[@frlolz]

I totally get the sentiment of his voice sounding a bit „thin“ from time to time and that‘s why I would really like you to listen to Pro Memoria and Rats! :D ofc he‘s no James Hetfield but I think in these songs his voice comes through way better :) edit: I forgot to mention his cover of Sympathy for the Devil on swedish TV! There he gets to show off his voice really nicely! No backing vocals whatsoever!

[@Vermiliontea]

You really need to see and hear them live. This is one band where the studio records, particularly the early, don't do them justice. It has reasons. This was basically a one-man/two-man at the beginning. The band-leader/songwriter/vocalist/frontman recorded the early records almost alone, playing most of the instruments himself. He originally planned to be the guitarist of the band, because he was a guitarist. That went nowhere. The band Ghost finally exploded on the scene (2006 I think) when he decided: "F** this, I'll front and sing this myself!". So the live band today is something a bit different. All roles are more proficient. Including the vocals because he has become a much better singer. A really good one, in fact. And as a frontman, I don't think there is anyone better on the whole Rock stage.

[@johnsmith_1942]

Great, I will follow this rabbit hole until insanity!

[@marybrant9586]

This song was made to ge an opener and now it closes each Ritual. They're on tour right now in Europe. Will be in the States in August 2023. Check them out Tobias doesn't know how to write a bad song. They're all catchy in their own right

[@JEppsLars]

I wanna see a reaction to Cirice. Such a simple riff but that one pops in my head OFTEN.

[@marybrant9586]

He released 3 demos on MySpace in 2010 to family & friends and 2 days later record labels were calling 📞

[@boggy6060]

A Great choice. I'm glad that you love it. They have some incredible songs, but some people tend to shun them because of their religious beliefs. But in the end its all about the entertainment value. Their latest Album " Impera" won the Best Album at this years AMA awards. Seeing them Live is on another level........... A message from the Clergy...... P.S I forgot to mention that they are a Swedish Band...... Another Great song is ' Temple of Love" extended, with Ofra Haza.... ( Dio Genesis ) by " Sisters of Mercy"..... The whole song has a huge Hook....... R.I.P Ofra Haza ..... One of the greatest voices of the 20th Century ........

[@1472Ravean]

Great reaction video. You heard right... are you ready to swear right here, right now, before the devil. You´ve gotta react on Dance Macabre and Call me little sunshine from, Ghost \m/

[@Hamish_Whitehaven]

Best Sunshine version is by far far far the Live from the Ministry, Ghoulette Voice there is from another world. But if I manage to get Gold Membership at some point (which is not very likely it seems) I will request this at one point

[@leeg5023]

Love ghost so I’m excited you’re checking the band out. With the devil/satanic thing he’s said it’s just for a big theatrical kind of thing and that he’s not a satanist. And there’s a whole lore behind the band behind just being a gimmick. The idea is they’ve been a band since like the 60’s who use popular and pleasant sounding music to subtly (sometimes not so much) get the message of of the devil and whatnot out there. Like subliminal messaging I guess. And while there’s actually only ever been one lead singer there have been several characters he’s played that were the lead singers of the band at various times since the 60’s or whenever the lore of it starts. The whole concept of ghost is really fun and kinda genius for what he was going for imo considering it’s kind of a one man show. He writes all the music, the lore of the band, the look and pretty much everything of what ghost is, is are his ideas

[@Hamish_Whitehaven]

Ghost has dozens of super catchy songs, my First request which will be aired this Month may not be one of them... but I wanted you to introduce to Ghost in a "Live" Setting. If I had known that Square Hammer will be on the List this month, I would maybe have chosen another song. But it's okay :)

[@MezThorbonizer]

Please try the Ghost song From the Pinnacle to the Pit. Thanks for the review!

[@matt-oo6fu]

it's a combination of shock and awe and genuine beliefs. Tobias is very much aligned with satanic PHILOSOPHY, but not religion. Ghost's specific take on it literally just takes a very satirical view of Christianity and just changes the names and makes it about Satan instead of God. "Cirice", for example, is about the church manipulating people by presenting themselves as the only ones who can ever understand or love them. "He Is" is essentially a hymn about Lucifer, but it's so heavily masked that it sounds like it could be a Christian song if you don't pay VERY close attention to the words. (and the music video is a parody of Jim Jones) Ghost has been full force with their image from day one. It's Tobias' passion project, the culmination of everything he loves about rock music, opera, movies, etc. (And he was previously in a death metal band called Repugnant!)

[@jkatt100]

Hi, I’m a Christian and would like to throw some two cents in the bucket if I may. There’s a debate on wether someone should enjoy music based on subject matter (I.e enjoy skillet because of the Christian undertone or ghost because of the satanist undertone). I did see another comment mention that their style is very satanist in approach with a lot of reference to Catholicism. I saw an interview from the lead singer that he does enjoy the styles of cathedrals and that’s where the pope characters he portrays and the stage prescience he puts on come from. But a lot of their songs are just straight “hail satan.” Some reference other folk lore and dark lore at times (like call me little sunshine). Songs are simple and super catchy. I’ve seen a lot of Christians come out saying they love the music regardless of seriousness or not of the subject purely because the sound is so good. I would also agree. I listen to almost all types of music and if I don’t agree with the subject matter, I’ll jam out appreciating the art that was crafted. I hope no mater what music you listen to? You enjoy it and it makes your day better or enhances whatever venture you find yourself on. Rock on everyone!

[@thechloechronicles9688]

Faith. Rats. He is. Cirice (won a Grammy). Year Zero. Hunter's Moon. Call Me Little Sunshine.

I can’t wait til you here more from them

[@henrikvidin]

Great blind reaction. I think you nailed it quite good! As many other said in the comments, rarely a bad song. But I recommend you to listen to their first album from 2010 Opus eponymous which is not as polished but man, what a sound! Satan has always being present in their songs but as you predicted, they're not really satanic but very disturbed with religion in general and the Catholic church especially. What to do? Perform as a anti-pope, a satanic one to give the message. The band, like me, are from Sweden, a very secular country and religion and how the religion affects a lot of people we find disturbing. So with that said, their satanic performance really have a purpose and a truly meaning. Thanks for this reaction! Like and follow from me!

[@Lazarus_Cardinalis]

Ghost does have songs with much lroggier songwriting! If you want a taste of that I recommend Majesty, Absolution or Respite on the Spitalfields!

[@Fitchie69]

Ghost or also Ghost B.C. I have been following since their second album Infestissumam. There, as on their debut, you can find heavier, sometimes disturbing-sounding songs. Today they are already a huge band and still write great pop songs in a rock/metal coat. I recommend the song Per Aspera Ad Inferi.

[@pitpride1220]

I think the masonic references are hilarious! Catchy song. They're really playing up the Satanic panic tropes. I'm not a fan but it's been stuck in my head for days. That's why I'm here trying to remove the earworm! You gotta give them credit. They wrote a great pop song which isn't easy. It's not their only one either.

[@veritasteller]

An interesting change in tempo... agree with the tempo... I bet Demon Hunter will be on your next list, new album EXILE just recently dropped. Has collabs w/ MAX Cavalera, guitarist from Judas Priest etc... it's very melodic and at other times very gritty and raw, like the son Defense Mechanism w/ Cavalera! The out did themselves again...
