Label: Loma Vista
Release type: Indie Exclusive Surge Coloured Vinyl LP Pressing.
Celebrate a decade of Meliora, Ghost’s groundbreaking third album, with this deluxe 10th anniversary edition pressed on indie exclusive surge coloured vinyl. Originally released in 2015 during the Papa Emeritus III era, the record features some of the band’s most iconic songs, including the GRAMMY-winning “Cirice,” fan favourite “He Is,” and the crushing “Mummy Dust.” This anniversary package also includes the platinum-certified single “Square Hammer” and a commemorative Papa III Mummy Dust buck.
Meliora (Latin for “the pursuit of something better”) is a concept album exploring society’s obsession with progress and its potential dystopian consequences. Marking a shift from Ghost’s earlier doom-heavy sound toward a more melodic and theatrical style, the record blends soaring choruses, sinister riffs, and cinematic interludes to create one of the most cohesive and celebrated albums in their catalogue.
Led by mastermind Tobias Forge, Ghost have risen from cult curiosity to global arena headliners, known for their elaborate stagecraft, rotating Papa Emeritus personas, and genre-defying mix of heavy metal, hard rock, and gothic pop. Meliora remains a pivotal chapter in their story, cementing Ghost as one of modern rock’s most innovative and theatrical forces.
