Opening Ghost’s album “Skeletá,” released in April 2025, this piece is a melodious track sung by the band’s new stage persona, Papa V Perpetua, featuring an impressive, grand introduction that begins with a children’s chorus.

Its appeal lies in a richly textured sound that skillfully weaves together multiple genres, including hard rock and pop metal.

And remarkably, the album “Skeletá,” which includes this track, reached No.

1 on the U.S.

Billboard 200—an achievement unmatched by a Swedish artist since Ace of Base! This song harmonizes a hopeful message with theatrical musicality, making it a truly outstanding work.

From Ghost, the rock band representing Sweden, comes a new track from their upcoming album “Skeletá,” slated for release in April 2025.

It opens with a solemn blend of organ and choir that evokes a demonic ritual, then shifts into a heavy riff reminiscent of 1970s Black Sabbath.

Coupled with vocals by the new character, Papa V Perpetua, the song fully unleashes the dark allure of heavy metal.

The band’s signature mystical, occult worldview remains intact, and with added symphonic elements, their sound feels even more refined.

Packed with the appeal that led Ghost to win a Grammy in 2016, this is a track I can highly recommend to anyone wanting to lose themselves in a grand rock sound.

It opens with dissonance—starting from a sense of eeriness.

A melody that evokes an abandoned Western-style mansion where no one resides continues, and the lack of dynamics further doubles the fear through its composition.

An ambitious work by GHOST, an overseas Vocaloid producer.

When you try translating the lyrics, you come across another unsettling phrase: entomologist.

What, then, is the hidden meaning of this song? Be sure to listen while translating and savor its worldview.

Gumi English – Candle Queen (Lyrics)
Candle QueenGHOST

A representative work by the Vocaloid producer Ghost, released in November 2017.

Its sound incorporates elements of dark cabaret and jazz, with a dance-like piano melody that leaves a strong impression.

The lyrics project the story of a woman who draws attention by manipulating others.

GUMI’s sultry vocals fit perfectly with the dark worldview.

Recommended for those who want to savor a story-driven piece.
