Sister Imperator, a sinister spokeswoman for Swedish occult rockers GHOST, appears in the latest promotional trailer for the band's new EP, "Popestar", which is expected to be released this Friday, September 16. The effort, which consists primarily of covers, was helmed by English producer Tom Dalgety, who has previously worked with ROYAL BLOOD and KILLING JOKE, among others. "Popestar" track listing: 01. Square Hammer 02. Nocturnal Me 03. I Believe 04. Missionary Man 05. Bible GHOST will perform "Square Hammer" on its upcoming North American tour, which kicks off this Friday in Rochester, New York.
