Ghost - Infestissumam

To the best of my knowledge, no metal band has come up as fast as Ghost! Everyone from Phil Anselmo (Pantera and Down fame) to Dave Grohl (Nirvana, Probot, Foo Fighters....and everyone else he has played for....including on the ABBA cover on this album!) has shown their support and love for Ghost. Oh! And they also have the musical chops to back it up! Who they are? No one knows! Some say they are a Swedish all-star band. The backing band are each known as the Nameless Ghoul and apparently, they changed singers from Papa Emeritus to Papa Emeritus II (looks like the same guy to me :P) but ah well....doesn't change the fact that their awesome! They are heavy and they have the melody and musical chops to back up what they do! This sophomore release proves it. Standout tracks include "Year Zero", their cover of "I'm a Marionette" featuring Dave Grohl, "Monstrance Clock" and "Secular Haze". Although, in some countries they have to put B.C. at the end of their name due to name issues and they say that it is silent, they aren't! And I hope they stay that way!
