Ghost is like Heavy Metal Deja Vu. They have been compared to Witchfinder General and Mercyful Fate by fans and reviewers alike but also carry a traditional Doom Metal vibe along with their influences from the First Wave Of Black Metal/New Wave Of British Heavy Metal. Instead of blast beats, extremely over driven guitars, inaudible bass and screams you get very safe but solid drums, distorted yet clear guitars, a bass tone and resonance that stands out on every song and, their favorite part, super clean vocals that are easy to listen to while maintaining an eerie presence. Let’s not forget about that organ either! This may come as a surprise upon first listen, but once you start to pay attention to the songs themselves and not the fact that Ghost sound like they’re stuck in a time warp you begin to appreciate why they are the way they are.
