Shocking Revelations

GHOST's Papa Emeritus To "Unmask Himself" For A Radio Show

A metaphorical unmasking.

A metaphorical unmasking.

It's no secret that Ghost's mastermind is Swedish musician Tobias Forge. While the frontman's identity was initially a mystery, numerous posts from Behemoth's frontman Nergal, Rob Zombie and Phil Anselmo have outed him.

With the ongoing lawsuit from former members, Tobias broke character for the first time, and officially outed himself in court documents, saying he was the only crucial member of the band. Now he's taking it a step further.

Blabbermouth reports Ghost's Papa Emeritus will publicly unmask himself as Tobias Forge for the first time… for a radio show. Forge will appear on the Swedish radio show "Sommar i P1." The format of the show is each 90-minute episode features a Swedish musician with a platform to discuss whatever they please and play music. Forge has said  "I'm going to talk about my background and about how things never quite turn out the way you think they will."

I'm assuming Forge is hinting at discussing his history with Ghost and also the ongoing lawsuits. It will be an interesting listen for sure. The former members are suing for what they believe are unpaid royalties and wages. Forge for his part countered that Ghost is a studio project and they were session musicians and blamed the former members for "destroying the mystery" of Ghost by revealing all of this info in court.

Ghost plan to enter the studio in August.

Turns out Ghost is pretty popular.

The lack of a tour name certainly gives it away.

DVD, BluRay, and 4K formats too, but that's less fun.

Reviews

"Rite Here Rite Now is a mostly comprehensive and extremely enjoyable—but slightly pointless—complement to Ghost's first film."
