It's pricey, but it's a really nice release. It also sounds great, even though I've only heard it at a friend's place. Due to limited living room space and two young kids, my turntable is currently not in my entertainment center's rotation. Getting old sucks. :lol:

Re: The 'Ghost B.C.' Thread
 

Yeah, assuming it doesn't sell out, it'll be a Christmas present to myself. We'll see how it goes in a couple of weeks. It's on its 3rd pressing and it comes in yellow now.

Papa Emeritus II is a great singer:

Re: The 'Ghost B.C.' Thread
 

I've probably listened to this record a dozen times now. Really like it (obvious I know). Anyway, think my favorite track is Waiting For the Night, but they're all damn good covers.

Re: The 'Ghost B.C.' Thread
 

FYI, Ghost's Opus Eponymous is $9.99 on Amazon. The vinyl version.

D'oh. OOS

Re: The 'Ghost B.C.' Thread
 

Lock in the price. Mine said it's expected to ship on 12/14.

Re: The 'Ghost B.C.' Thread
 

Just went ahead and scooped up Infestissumam used for $11. I can't justify the $50 for the yellow import.

Re: The 'Ghost B.C.' Thread
 

Man, these guys tour a lot! Pretty much non-stop since late 2010. Here's hoping they make another pass through the US in 2014.

True that. They played in Los Angeles this year but I was not yet a fan, so here's hoping they come back to town in 2014.

Re: The 'Ghost B.C.' Thread
 

I'm really hoping they are on the Sonisphere Italy bill this year. They have already attached to a couple of other Sonisphere festivals, just waiting for the announcement of who is opening for Metallica. Plus I think it will be cool to see them play right down the road from the Vatican.

Wow, here's the band doing a Beatles' song - it's from the Japanese edition of Opus Eponymous - it's pretty fucking epic:

Great cover. Got an Amazon GC or Xmas and just picked up the next two releases from them. I already had the debut. Really love these guys and the new singer is excellent.

Re: The 'Ghost B.C.' Thread
 

It's still the same singer. ;)

Re: The 'Ghost B.C.' Thread
 

I must have listened to Opus Eponymous 4 times over the past couple weeks (what a great way to celebrate XMas ;)). Practically had 'Ritual' on a loop. Still need to pick up Infestissumam.

Re: The 'Ghost B.C.' Thread
 

Infestissumam isn't quite as good/catchy as Opus, but it's still a lot of fun.

Re: The 'Ghost B.C.' Thread
 

Well, that explains a lot :).

Re: The 'Ghost B.C.' Thread
 

"If You Have Ghosts" is a killer cover. This EP had a lot more of that first album vibe for me which is a plus.

Re: The 'Ghost B.C.' Thread
 

I think "Ritual" from the first album and "Body and Blood" from the second album pair up quite nicely.

Re: The 'Ghost B.C.' Thread
 

Finally was able to give the two albums and EP a proper listen. Liked them more than I thought I would. I will admit the second record is not quite as good as the first, but it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be based on comments about it.

I agree "If You Have Ghosts" is a great cover.

Re: The 'Ghost B.C.' Thread
 

I must be the only one that likes the second just as much as the first, maybe slightly more.

Re: The 'Ghost B.C.' Thread
 

The only thing I don't care for with the second one is the sound. Very bassy and boomy. The first record sounded much better.

Re: The 'Ghost B.C.' Thread
 

I was listening to this stuff in the car today and I realized the singer sounds kind of like Weird Al at times. That definitely puts a different spin on it.

Re: The 'Ghost B.C.' Thread
 

This just made my day!

Looks like the L.A. show will be at The Fonda Theater in Hollywood. Haven't been there since I saw Buckethead back in 2006! Before the remodel.
