Waaaait, I'm not the only one that had this (2.) band recommended by the algo? xD

[–] dunz@feddit.nu 1 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

I've listened to them since the first album tbh

[–] CaptainBlagbird@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago

Nice

If I remember correctly from when I checked them out after the recommendation, that they only have one album that came out this year, right?

Ghost is Scooby Doo metal and I fucking love it.

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 22 points 1 day ago (1 children)

In their concert movie they included an animated chase scene done in classic scooby doo style. I lost my shit.

Haven't seen that(or maybe I don't remember it, although it does sound familiar), but I will say that their show was one of the most fun shows I've ever seen. One memorable bit(googling it now, it seems to have been a hit with many people) was that they had a sort of confetti Cannon that shot fake money. Managed to get one; pretty cool memorabilia. Especially in this day and age when physical concert tickets are rarer. I still have the ticket from my first concert(and all the other subsequent ones)

Here it is!

And that's awesome. I don't like standing at concerts so I've never been close enough to get any money. But yeah, best live concerts I've ever seen.

The proper genre is "Halloween glam rock."

I will not be taking questions at this time.

I don't remember where I heard it, but Ghost is Bon Jovi for theater kids.

They're still great though

[–] TehBamski@lemmy.world 21 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That's good hahaha. I've liked the comparison of Ghost being the dark version of ABBA.

[–] alx@piefed.blahaj.zone 18 points 1 day ago

I always say it’s ABBA metal (in the absolute best way possible)

[–] YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 13 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I don't hate them. I actually kinda like a few of their singles. But them being considered metal is beyond the pale. Hard rock maybe, but definitely not metal.

[–] dunz@feddit.nu 2 points 1 day ago

Yeah I like them too, seen them live twice!

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 24 points 1 day ago

Quality trolling. Ghost is barely metal, it's basically hard rock.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Possibly the biggest douchebag I'll ever meet was really into Ghost.
