Grammy-winning Swedish theatrical rock icons, Ghost, have released the official music video for “Peacefield”, the new single and opening track of the band’s just released album, Skeletá, available via Loma Vista Recordings. Find the video below.
The genesis of Skeletá is rooted in the wake of a world-spanning years-long touring campaign in support of Impera — a period that saw Impera top album charts the world over and winning an American Music Award and an iHeart Radio Music Award, as well as the band earning its first RIAA-certified platinum single (“Mary On A Cross”) and presiding over the highest grossing hard rock cinema event in North American history (its feature film debut Rite Here Rite Now). As this sustained maelstrom ultimately wound down, Ghost mastermind Tobias Forge’s next uncharted creative direction would prove to be an inward journey. This deeply introspective turn in Forge’s creative process would ultimately result in Skeletá: a collection of 10 new songs originating from and cutting as close to the bone as (in)humanly possible.
Ghost’s sixth psalm, Skeletá, is its most unflinchingly introspective work to date. Where previous Ghost albums dealt largely with chronicling and/or observing outward facing subject matter — such as Impera’s meditations on the rise and fall of empires and its predecessor Prequelle’s evocations of the ravages of era-defining plagues — Skeletá’s lyrics render the distinct individual emotional vistas of each of its 10 songs in one-on-one fashion, at times as if in a dialogue with oneself in a mirror. The end result is a singular collection of timeless, universal sentiments, all filtered through a prism of a uniquely personal point of view.
