Expanding Ghost's theatrical rock universe with a fresh set of interpretations, Phantomime arrived in 2023 as a five-song EP that reimagines classic rock and alternative songs through the band's distinct sonic lens. Rather than presenting new original material, the release focuses on carefully chosen covers that connect with Ghost's melodic sensibilities and dramatic presentation. The EP reflects Tobias Forge's long-standing appreciation for influential artists while allowing the band to reinterpret familiar compositions with modern production and their signature gothic aesthetic. Across Phantomime, Ghost transforms well-known tracks with polished arrangements and a darker tonal palette. The EP includes interpretations of Iron Maiden's "Phantom Of The Opera," Genesis' "Jesus He Knows Me," Television's "See No Evil," Tina Turner's "We Don't Need Another Hero (Thunderdome)," and The Stranglers' "Hanging Around." Each performance highlights the band's ability to reshape diverse material into their own melodic hard rock framework, blending driving guitars, dramatic vocals, and layered instrumentation that align with Ghost's theatrical identity. Pressed on classic black vinyl, this EP edition of Phantomime presents the material in a format that complements the band's expansive production style. The LP offers clear playback across the five tracks while preserving the dynamics of the studio recordings.
