Ghost have shared the official video for “Dance Macabre.” The track comes off their most recent album, Prequelle. You can check out the Zev Deans-directed clip above.
Ghost leader Tobias Forge recently spoke to Guitar World about the unusually dancey, poppy sound of “Dance Macabre”: “I had the riff that starts the whole song, that was just a riff that got stuck in my head,” he said. “I didn’t think of it as a Ghost thing at first. Because I heard the riff in a slightly more ‘synth-y’ sort of way. But I showed it to some songwriting pals of mine and they were like, ‘That’s a Ghost song!’ Oh, okay. I didn’t hear it that way at first. But it then it was, ‘Let’s make a Ghost song out of it…’ ”
