Are Ghost the worst band?

In this video we look at the band ghost. Are they as bad as people say? Regardless of how one may feel about the band they definitely can write memorable riffs and hooks.

I love Ghost. And the fact that so many metal fans cry about them proves that “real” metal fans are softer than Ghost’s music lol

[BigMuff]

I have to agree. The hooks Ghost come up with are masterfully crafted. I understand they’re not for everyone and bubblegum to some people, but if you’re a songwriter, they’re doing something you should aspire to in that dept.

Im 48 and have been a death, thrash, hard core ect fan my entire life. I finally crawled out of my cave 2 years ago and listened to Ghost for the first time. Pinnacle to the Pit was what i heard. Haters are gonna hate but the fact of the matter is. Ghost is the shit, their riffs will stick in your head for days and some of their covers are better than the originals

[jovanovskiguitar]

Ghost is incredible, haters dont know shit about music

[isolateddemon]

FACT IS, THE GUITAR PLAYERS IN GHOST HAVE GREAT TECHNIQUE😀🤘🏻🤘🏻

[Shaylok]

I like many of their songs, but if Ghost sounded like they looked, they would sound more like Type O Negative.

[DougWalker]

Totally catchy tunes. I’ve been learning a bunch of their stuff on bass. I like “heavy” stuff with melody.
Cirice is kinda like saying ser-eese
And in my opinion they do not suck.

People are so hung up on image. Ghost is fun and catchy. Haters are miserable.

[phillippitts]

Ghost is the most bubblegum metal band in the world.

[phillippitts]

It sounds better as an isolated guitar track.

[danielkosmider]

I have honestly never even listened to them once that I am aware of so no comment.

I think it is pronounced "Sir-reece" from when they played it on late night TV. Love the channel, new subscriber!

[mrhughes]

I don't think ghost should be called metal. Same thing goes for Metallica. They are hard Rock bands. In that vein ghost is the best Hard Rock band to come out in twenty years. They know how to write music and compose their craft perfectly.
They are just not metal. Metal heads will never like them. Nor should they. Slipknot and ghost are Miles apart.

I don't think Tobias has ever claimed they were a metal band. He writes from his influences which are vast ranging from metal to pop to classic rock. I think the fans and media just gave them the "metal" label because of their image and earlier work and they haven't been able to shake that label. Much like Oasis got stuck with the whole Beatles imitators label... Even though they sound nothing like the Beatles.

[suggoz]

YES, The worst but the best Eurovison ABBA soft slimy pop.

[JD-vjgo]

Ghost is a band I like when I hear them but I never think to listen to them on my own. I'll probably listen to them at work tonight but only because you mentioned them.

[takeoffthatiiitakethattrib]

What's that effect you're using
You rock

[cobezcobez]

Ive never been a fan of ghost but ive seen some intriguing videos on YT that makes me think they can be cool when they want to with some catchy stuff. Just not my cup of tea

[Shawner]

I hate Prequelle and Impera barring two songs Faith and Hunters Moon those are great songs but everything else sucks. I love everything before Prequelle though Meliora is a masterpiece! they just went too poppy sounding and lost the edge. imho

[SatansLeadGuitarist]

Ghost is one of those bands that people who don't listen to metal will bring up when you tell them you like metal. They have a cool aesthetic but i can't stand their music.
