Ghost will release its fourth full-length studio album, “Prequelle,” on June 1 via Loma Vista Recordings. The band is led on the effort by its “new” frontman, Cardinal Copia, replacing Papa Emeritus III, its leader throughout the “Meliora”/”Popestar” album cycle.
Watch the video for the record’s first single, “Rats,” and see the “Prequelle” cover art below.
“Prequelle” was recorded last year at Artery studios in Stockholm, Sweden, with producer Tom Dalgety and mixed in January at Westlake Studios in West Hollywood, California, by Andy Wallace.
Various pre-order bundles are available here. All purchases will receive an immediate mp3 download of “Rats” and a full album download on the street date.
On May 5, Ghost will kick off its “Rats on the Road” U.S. tour in Riverside, California.
