Ghost has been award their first-ever Gold singles in the United States. The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) has awarded "Cirice" from Meliora, "Square Hammer" from Popestar, and "Dance Macabre" from Prequelle all Gold status as of June 7. A Gold status means the single has achieved 500,000 sales or downloads, with on-demand music streams being counted as one sale per 150 streams. So congrats to Ghost for being that incredibly successful! Though given that the band is touring arenas at this point, it's not surprising.
