oooh

 

[therealjohnny]

Apart from Anthony, Chris d, and myself, and maybe Gary to tell us how shit they are no one will care, but I'm disappointed with all the Ghost carry-on.

A quick summary:
'Anonymous' masked band fronted by 'Papa Emeritus' character grow increasingly popular.
Band members known as 'Nameless Ghouls' change every now and then as band's popularity increases.
Rumours of disquiet in the camp.
Latest EP not well received by older fans.
Original guitarist nicknamed 'Omega' leaves, outs himself by revealing his true identity and makes a video explaining why he left.
At the start of the latest tour Papa fires all remaining members and hires new 'Ghouls'.
Fans unhappy.
Four original members reveal impending lawsuit against Papa saying he has withheld salaries, fees, profits from merch.
Fans very unhappy.

For more information please reread.

I'm not happy about this carry on. Of the identities revealed. However it does make it easier to follow them.

But does the drummer want a load of Ghost fans turning up at these gigs bumming out all the other members?

Well the cat isn't going back in the bag about the identities anyway.

This legal business isn't going to bring back the old band either, but something had to be addressed when it was obvious everyone had been changed/sacked.

I've got a list of who played on each song on the releases now which is interesting.

Ive listened to some of the other bands. Subvision seemed to mix the good with the bad. The TF thrash band I can't remember the name of, but isn't my bag. I was enjoying a Magna Carta Cartel playlist on youtube last night.

Ive been learning the sweet riffs from Cirice off this video, despite my disgust at looking at people playing guitar while wearing tracksuit bottoms.

Care to share?
I'd like to see a rock family tree showing what's going on.

I thought the Irish music scene was incestual but their little corner of Sweden puts us in the ha'penny place.

The leader of Priest (ex-Ghoul) has taken to making swipes at Papa and Sister Imperator on Twitter. There's some disturbingly thought-out gay sub-dom porn fan-fiction involving him and Ghost. Recommended.

 

[Cornu Ammonis]

Yeah, Ghost were amazing that time they played Whelans, must have been about 10 years ago right? I was sorry to see them break up, probably one of the best bands to come out of Japan and that whole psychedelic underground scene.

Not as Ghost though I thought.

 

[Unknown Convict]

Not as Ghost though I thought.

no, but solo and in the silence. only thing i have by him is the ghost from the darkened sea 12" which i presume you have given the you doo right cover.

 

[Anthony]

No going back now. I've read the whole document. The biggest thing I come away from it with is now I want to hear that version of Infestissimum that was rejected by Universal!!

 

[Denny Oubidoux]

Yeah, Ghost were amazing that time they played Whelans, must have been about 10 years ago right? I was sorry to see them break up, probably one of the best bands to come out of Japan and that whole psychedelic underground

I liked them at the time and enjoyed the gig but on revisiting their music recently I found out that I don't like them at all now.

 

[Cornu Ammonis]

no, but solo and in the silence. only thing i have by him is the ghost from the darkened sea 12" which i presume you have given the you doo right cover.

I don't actually, I only have most of the main albums.

I liked them at the time and enjoyed the gig but on revisiting their music recently I found out that I don't like them at all now.

That's sad.
