GHOST announce new album ‘SKELETÁ’ (new video & exclusive color vinyl + CD)

GHOST have announced their new album, SKELETÁ, due out on April 25 via Loma Vista, and we’ve got a few limited exclusive variants up for pre-order in the BV shop: opaque silver vinyl, opaque fruit punch vinyl, and picture disc CD. All are limited to 1000 and you can pre-order yours here while they last. See mock-ups of all three variants below.

SKELETÁ is the follow-up to 2022’s Impera, and it features “new” frontman Papa V Perpetua. Here’s more from the press release:

GHOST’s sixth psalm, SKELETÁ, is its most unflinchingly introspective work to date. Where previous GHOST albums dealt largely with chronicling and/or observing outward facing subject matter—such as IMPERA’s meditations on the rise and fall of empires and its predecessor Prequelle’s evocations of the ravages of era-defining plagues—SKELETA’s lyrics render the distinct individual emotional vistas of each of its 10 songs in one-on-one fashion, at times as if in a dialogue with oneself in a mirror. The end result is a singular collection of timeless, universal sentiments, all filtered through a prism of a uniquely personal point of view.

The first single is “Satanized,” which finds the band’s trademark occult rock sounding as equally eerie and triumphant as ever. Listen and watch the accompanying video below.

GHOST will be on their arena tour starting in April, with the North American leg, including an NYC show at Madison Square Garden on July 22, in the summer. See all dates below.
