Prequelle may be slightly less edgy than Ghost's previous work, but is one of the band's most well written and produced batches of songs to date, and its loose concept keeps things just fresh enough.

On the contrary, I think the non-poetry of “Pro Memoria” is an effective lyrical tactic. Rather than sweeten the message with metaphors, it’s a very chilling and sobering reminder of the inevitability of death. You can avoid thinking about it, but you can’t avoid it altogether.
@CDB12345 6 жыл бұрын
its also true to the name of the song "pro memoria", "to remember"- and the best way to do this is with simple and direct lyrical usage, the charm in this song is the simplicity of the chorus in contrast with the grand and beautiful instrumentals, and also, the atmosphere.

I think its best to look at these albums in the context of their Papa or Frontman for the album Papa 1 was the establishment, the old guard with his album being heavier and darker with more growl Papa 2 Was newer but still authoritative and a part of the established culture so his was more melodic but still held remnants of the heavier predecessor. And in interviews, he seems to realize he is not the big introduction nor the amazing climax, he is the forgettable follow up Papa 3 was meant to surmize a younger and energetic (and sexual) figure, where his songs and preformances displayed this; even the heavier songs were high energy and somewhat melodic or sweet. Cardinal Copia is goofy, uninitiated, but ambitious and you can see this in his stage presence and music. He jokes, he dances, he interacts with his ghouls much more, and in his songs hes very adamant about his growing strength.

Honestly, I love Helvetesfonster. The beginning is cliche/unnecessary but the end with the accoustic guitars and the wind in the trees effect really paints a perfect picture of the anguish of a dead/dying loved one in a God forsaken land. I feel it leads into Life Eternal seamlessly. The last few minutes of the song are haunting and bring depth. Overlooked for sure.

In remember melon putting dance macabre in the worst of one of his weekly track roundups, and now it's one of his favorites.....That's how ghost works, they sneak up on you and worm their way into your head. I hated dance macabre at first, until a week later I realized I had only heard it once and had been singing it ever since.
@rickkelley4618 5 жыл бұрын
you are right on...it takes me like 2 solid weeks of listening to NO Ghost, to get a Ghost song out of my head, particularly, Cirice, Dance Macabre, He Is, Bible, Elizabeth, Zombie Queen and Rats. I can't get them out of my head once they are in there. And as cheesy as some of them are, I just love them. The cheesiness is just enough to make it seem deeply serious, and so stinking catchy. Forge knows exactly what he's doing. I honestly can't wait for the next album!

Pro Memoriam's chorus, while blunt, is a pretty clear reference to the "memento mori" credo of the middle ages, which literally meant "remember about dying", which had to do with the Christian idea that life was really all about becoming worthy of an afterlife; the earthly life thereby only being legitimized by death So that could be why the chorus is so blunt, the idea it was referencing was pretty blunt

The cynic in me wants to believe that the lighter sound is actually part of the gimmick. Like Tobias realized the genie was out of the bottle with the lawsuit and the "magic was gone" so to speak (at least how I feel about it personally), so he leaned into it even more. Instead of Papa IV, we get the "younger and sexier" Cardinal Copia, turning the Rats video into a Bob Fosse dance routine. And therefore, the music gets lighter and more mainstream-friendly. And I'd be cool with all that if the songs were catchy and memorable like most of their catalog. But aside from Rats and Miasma, I just don't feel it. I'm kinda feeling like they lost me after Popestar, which bombed for me with the exception of Square Hammer.

Hey Fantano, just wanted to say thanks. I discovered you through your review of Meliora and you convinced me to buy the album after listening to it for a solid week. Same goes for AESOP Rock' s The Impossible Kid. I will definitely investigate this album. Thanks again. Keep up the good work, Melon!

Trane Sonic I’ll admit, it was strange on the first listen, but I eventually liked how it worked at the end of Miasma. If you’re talking saxophone in general, I can understand if you don’t like the timbre, but there are various kinds of sax.

Infestissumam isn't bad songwriting wise (outside of some questionable stuff like Jigolo Har Meggido that translates much better to their acoustic sets), but actual sound of that album is horrible. The whole thing is over compressed with little body to any of the instruments, especially the guitars. Those songs are incredible when they're played live though.

It's really a spotty album. I get what they were trying to do, I mean how do you top a masterpiece like their first. So they did an album full of homages to all kinds of different styles, and they technically do it all well. But in the end there are only about 4 really awesome tracks, a couple of real stinkers, and the rest just kinda whatever. Meloria was better, but based off the two teaser tracks of this new one, I've pretty much stopped caring about the band anymore. Weak songs and generic "slick" production. The opposite of what made them so incredible when they came out.

This album definitly grew on me. On very first listen, I wasn't sure because it sounded more light, and Rats never really won me over.. But I put the record on as background music, and now it's one of my favorite albums right now. I cannot stop listening, with my favorites being Faith, Dance Macabre, Miasma. I LOVE this concept of a lighter (ironic?) tone. Dance Macabre is a fucking addictive 80s love song, but really about the plague/black death that swept over Europe during the Middle Ages. I just love how they manage that fine line of irony ("happy, careless" sound with dark meaning). Reminds me of He Is, which is just a happy-go-lucky, christian-rock sounding song, except it's about devil worship. Brilliant. Prequelle really grew on me and I love it now. I'm glad they're not afraid of experimenting and challenging the state of metal music. Not to be cheesy, but I actually feel like they're reviving it a bit. They're really pushing the boundaries and making it popular.

Those weird chords in the beginning of Witch Image are 9ths. Commonly called "The Devils Interval." Back in the day, they said if you could properly hear that interval, that you were possessed .

This is untrue. “The Devil’s Interval” was the tritone. The idea that the sound was considered “demonic” in the old days has been largely discredited by academia in recent years.

I've liked them from Opus and I for one loved the hair metal nods, the Rats riff hit me like something from Warren Demartini's repertoire, the lead guitar player of 80's LA metal giants Ratt. I assume that's all intentional, love the cheese and little jokes like that thrown in.

I was eagerly awaiting this album, (and review) and I do enjoy it quote a bit... However I do agree with what you were saying about the second instrumental track and Pro Mem is definitely giving off that lone singer under a stage light in a play vibe... but I dig it. In my opinion its not as solid of an album as Meliora was, but I have a theory that this is part 1 of a two album cycle for Cardinal Copia.. This is the Cardinal's time, once he becomes Papa, we'll see another album that this one kind of leads into.. it's the only way I can see the way this album's organization making sense since it seems pretty top heavy and then fades into softer stuff for the most part. Thanks!
@doqtrshine6012 3 жыл бұрын
Like some have said, I love pro memoria, and the don’t you forget about dying, it burned in my brain, so blunt and direct, it’s really what enamored me with the album in the beginning. And the following instrumental I found so tasteful, some of their best. And loved life eternal, I guess that sort of shit is just my vibe.
