I’m on vacation, which means daily postprandial listening sessions of playfully satanic heavy metal.

Today’s gem in Ghost’s latest, Prequelle. I mean, just the artwork alone, my friends. And the power chorus in “Rats.” Tobias Forge is a curmudgeonly genius, and if a genre’s merit can be quantified by the number of beautiful assholes creating within it, look no further than masked Swedish pop/metal.
