was an incredible and long-awaited show, writes<br \/>\nRevolver. &#171;Starting the tour with a song that no one has heard before is bold and exciting,&#187; he said<br \/>\nJoe DiVita of Loudwire.<\/p>\n<p>Ghost will perform in the USA until March 3, and from April 9 (Manchester, England) until May 18<br \/>\n(Budapest, Hungary) &#8212; in Europe.<\/p>\n<p>Founded in 2006 in Linkoping, Ghost is one of the best examples of Scandinavian<br \/>\nheavy metal, and a unique representative of the occult year. The band&#8217;s performances are always impressive<br \/>\nshow with religious provocative content. Band members never open<br \/>\ntheir real names and always appear as Nameless Guli. The soloist performs under the name Papa<br \/>\nEmeritus &#8212; during the existence of the group has changed four, and the death of the previous and<br \/>\nthe erection of a new &#171;pope&#187; often takes place during concerts. Ghost&#8217;s popularity is fast<br \/>\ncrossed the border into Sweden. Yes, Metallica soloist James Hatfield called their tracks &#171;a sip<br \/>\nfresh air &#171;for metal. And Nirvana and Foo Fighters member Dave Grohl participated in<br \/>\nrecorded individual tracks and produced band recordings. One of the Nameless Gulls claims that<br \/>\nGrohl himself sometimes secretly dresses up as Gul to perform with Ghost.<\/p>\n<p>The anonymity of Ghost members is an inviolable principle of the band, which can be followed<br \/>\nthanks to the careful selection of stage costumes. Especially &#8212; masks. Them for the Imperatour tour<br \/>\nSwedes ordered from one of the world&#8217;s best manufacturers of masks &#8212; Ukrainian art studio Bob<br \/>\nBasset. They also immediately mentioned the &#171;dragon&#8217;s wings&#187;, as their master calls them, the scope of which,<br \/>\nby the way, is 2 meters.<\/p>\n<p>Well-known Swedish stylist Beat \u00c5kerlund contacted the Ukrainians.<br \/>\nis engaged in the design of Ghost&#8217;s performance (previously worked with Beyonce, Lady Gaga,<br \/>\nBritney Spears, Rihanna, Madonna and others). It was a &#171;fantastic collaboration,&#187; he said<br \/>\nco-founder of the art studio Bob Basset, artist Sergei Petrov.<br \/>\nHe says he made eight masks that looked like gas masks for the Nameless Hul.<\/p>\n<p>&#171;Thanks to similar masks Bob Basset gained its first popularity.<br \/>\nTo summarize, these are masks in a style close to steampunk made of leather, brass, horns, which,<br \/>\nby the way, made from real cow horns. And then we did what we never did make seven more copies of this mask according to individual parameters for each of<br \/>\nNameless Hul. Of course, in addition to being spectacular, they must be extraordinary<br \/>\ncomfortable, because musicians have to work on stage for several hours &#8212; that&#8217;s all<br \/>\nit has been repeatedly tested for convenience and safety&#187; says Sergey Petrov.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1968\" src=\"https:\/\/bobbasset.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/\u0423\u043a\u043b\u0456\u043d-260x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"260\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bobbasset.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/\u0423\u043a\u043b\u0456\u043d-260x300.jpg 260w, https:\/\/bobbasset.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/\u0423\u043a\u043b\u0456\u043d-887x1024.jpg 887w, https:\/\/bobbasset.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/\u0423\u043a\u043b\u0456\u043d-768x886.jpg 768w, https:\/\/bobbasset.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/\u0423\u043a\u043b\u0456\u043d-325x375.jpg 325w, https:\/\/bobbasset.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/\u0423\u043a\u043b\u0456\u043d-305x352.jpg 305w, https:\/\/bobbasset.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/\u0423\u043a\u043b\u0456\u043d-355x410.jpg 355w, https:\/\/bobbasset.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/\u0423\u043a\u043b\u0456\u043d.jpg 986w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 260px) 100vw, 260px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1967\" src=\"https:\/\/bobbasset.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/\u0421\u043e\u043b\u0456\u0441\u0442-\u041f\u0430\u043f\u0430-\u0415\u043c\u0435\u0440\u0456\u0442\u0443\u0441-IV-\u0432-\u0443-\u043a\u0440\u0438\u043b\u0430\u0445-\u0432\u0456\u0434-Bob-Basset_1-259x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"259\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bobbasset.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/\u0421\u043e\u043b\u0456\u0441\u0442-\u041f\u0430\u043f\u0430-\u0415\u043c\u0435\u0440\u0456\u0442\u0443\u0441-IV-\u0432-\u0443-\u043a\u0440\u0438\u043b\u0430\u0445-\u0432\u0456\u0434-Bob-Basset_1-259x300.jpg 259w, https:\/\/bobbasset.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/\u0421\u043e\u043b\u0456\u0441\u0442-\u041f\u0430\u043f\u0430-\u0415\u043c\u0435\u0440\u0456\u0442\u0443\u0441-IV-\u0432-\u0443-\u043a\u0440\u0438\u043b\u0430\u0445-\u0432\u0456\u0434-Bob-Basset_1-883x1024.jpg 883w, https:\/\/bobbasset.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/\u0421\u043e\u043b\u0456\u0441\u0442-\u041f\u0430\u043f\u0430-\u0415\u043c\u0435\u0440\u0456\u0442\u0443\u0441-IV-\u0432-\u0443-\u043a\u0440\u0438\u043b\u0430\u0445-\u0432\u0456\u0434-Bob-Basset_1-768x891.jpg 768w, https:\/\/bobbasset.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/\u0421\u043e\u043b\u0456\u0441\u0442-\u041f\u0430\u043f\u0430-\u0415\u043c\u0435\u0440\u0456\u0442\u0443\u0441-IV-\u0432-\u0443-\u043a\u0440\u0438\u043b\u0430\u0445-\u0432\u0456\u0434-Bob-Basset_1-323x375.jpg 323w, https:\/\/bobbasset.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/\u0421\u043e\u043b\u0456\u0441\u0442-\u041f\u0430\u043f\u0430-\u0415\u043c\u0435\u0440\u0456\u0442\u0443\u0441-IV-\u0432-\u0443-\u043a\u0440\u0438\u043b\u0430\u0445-\u0432\u0456\u0434-Bob-Basset_1-305x354.jpg 305w, https:\/\/bobbasset.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/\u0421\u043e\u043b\u0456\u0441\u0442-\u041f\u0430\u043f\u0430-\u0415\u043c\u0435\u0440\u0456\u0442\u0443\u0441-IV-\u0432-\u0443-\u043a\u0440\u0438\u043b\u0430\u0445-\u0432\u0456\u0434-Bob-Basset_1-355x412.jpg 355w, https:\/\/bobbasset.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/\u0421\u043e\u043b\u0456\u0441\u0442-\u041f\u0430\u043f\u0430-\u0415\u043c\u0435\u0440\u0456\u0442\u0443\u0441-IV-\u0432-\u0443-\u043a\u0440\u0438\u043b\u0430\u0445-\u0432\u0456\u0434-Bob-Basset_1.jpg 1181w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 259px) 100vw, 259px\" \/><br \/>\nAccording to the artist, the hardest part was waiting for the news that Ghost finally came out because<br \/>\neverything was repeatedly postponed due to the pandemic, and to talk about their participation in the project<br \/>\nUkrainians could not.<\/p>\n<p>&#171;Of course, we are very happy now.
