About

Renowned for their theatrical live shows, masked occult rockers Ghost captured a thrilling performance in San Francisco featuring some of their finest satanic hymns. Kicking off with the bombastic 2016 single “Square Hammer” and working their way through the Swedish band’s devilish discography, vocalist Papa Emeritus III and his troupe of Nameless Ghouls pump demonic electricity into soaring devotional “Body and Blood,” metallic incantation “Year Zero,” mournful, orchestral pop song “He Is,” and infectious audience sing-along “Monstrance Clock.”
