Christ on a cracker, I do love me some Ghost. While I suspected something was on the horizon with their recent “Jesus is coming” and “Jesus Talk with Father Jim DeFroque” marketing, I did not expect a cover of Genesis’ “Jesus He Knows Me”. Good god almighty it’s tight. Ghost have elevated the song, stripping back the signature Genesis sound and layering theirs over it … Continue reading WATCH: “Jesus He Knows Me” by Ghost
Here are the 11 tracks we have at 11 this week. Listen on Apple Music or Spotify There is no method to the order this week. “Let’s Turn this Back Around” by Far From SaintsWe’ll have a full post on this song tomorrow but this song is a beautiful marriage of vocal raspiness between Kelly and Patty and we can’t wait to hear more. “Waiting … Continue reading VOLUME UP!

Absolutely fangirled over this announcement. My teenage years of hair metal and adult years of metal combined into one song! Ghost is joined by Def Leppard frontman, Joe Elliott, on “Spillways” and it’s fantastic. “Spillways” always had a hair metal guitar wail and Joe’s voice fits in wonderfully with Ghost frontman’s Tobias Forge. Listen to “Spillways” below Continue reading GHOST: Spillways featuring Joe Elliott

2022 was a year of change for Amplify the Noise. While we rebranded ourselves from Pretty Vacant One, our focus to “dig through the music crates of life and share what we like” remains unchanged. We also dialled in our focus to raise the frequency of music we like without crapping on the dreams of others. If something wasn’t to our taste, we simply didn’t … Continue reading What We Loved in 2022
Sometimes, it’s hard not to write: Damn great album. For the love of the devil, just do yourself a favour and listen to the damn thing. That’s how I feel about Ghost’s 5th studio album IMPERA. Continue reading Track by Track: Impera by Ghost
Sweden’s GHOST has released a new track from their upcoming IMPERA album (March 2022) and whew boy. It’s a rocker and a nice little follow up to 2021’s single “Hunter’s Moon”. I have to admit, I was late in joining the GHOST party. I just didn’t “get” their sound when OPUS EPONYMOUS came out in 2010, but then again, it wasn’t the type of music I was into at the time either. And even … Continue reading 🔥Track: Call Me Little Sunshine by Ghost
