Ghost (32) - Skeletá

Heavy Metal / Rock / Pop band from Sweden formed in 2008. They are known for their own self-created mythology, their elaborate costumes, theatrical performances, and were known for keeping members anonymous. With a historic fictionalized lore, Ghost's backstory revolves around the anonymity of the musicians (listed in the release credits as "Nameless Ghouls"), and the frontman portrayed by [a1841998], who is 'replaced' at the end of each touring / album cycle. Drawing influences from classic rock, classic metal and pop bands such as [a=Abba], Ghost differentiate themselves by merging the aforementioned genres, old and new, and satanic themes in their music giving them a unique sound. Due to legal conflicts, the band was briefly forced to release music under the Ghost B.C. name in the United States. They absolutely refused to use the name on any merchandise or in any other manner.
