Transforming the Vegas strip to Vatican City, the Clergy is celebrating a new Papal conclave, swapping white smoke with violet and heralding the arrival of Papa V Perpetua. Ghost's latest iteration marks the beginning of their next era and the confirmation of their sixth full length album, SKELETÁ. The news serves as the first offering since the 2022 release of the band's universally acclaimed LP, Impera.
Along with the news of Papa's newest incarnation and Ghost's next entry, the Clergy has shared the first psalm from the April 25th release. "Satanized" showcases the signature, subversive take on the divine, anchored by sweeping instrumentation and Papa's undeniable command. Along with the unveiling of the band's first music video, Ghost prove among heavy music's most innovative forces.
Working with Jason Zada (Elf Yourself), "Satanized" touts The Satanizer - an interactive feature that allows fans/parishioners to insert themselves into the video by uploading of their photo. The Satanizer, creates a personalized clip, which is made sharable via social media - because getting Satanized is only official if it is online.
Coupled with the rollout of the latest album, Tobias Forge will guest on the March 7th episode of the acclaimed podcast Morbid. Forge will join hosts Ash and Alaina offering an in-depth discussion of SKELETÁ, offering a first-hand account of the Clergy's creation of their sixth full length.
Ghost is set to embark on their 2025 World Tour under the same SKELETOUR banner. Consisting of some 55-dates and touching down in several parts of the world including the US, Europe, UK and Mexico, the Ghost 2025 World Tour celebrates one of rock music's most spectacular live productions in what amounts to the band's most ambitious run of their career.
