Pretty sure thats just the "regular" deluxe, 2LP in a slipcase. Thats what I just saw down at my local shop where I got the 12" Popestar for $12.

I've not seen pictures of it yet, but I believe it is just Meliora packaged with Popestar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hallowken78 Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 Did anyone who ordered tickets for the Popestar tour get a link to download the EP? I thought that was supposed to be part of it from what they said a while back but I guess that's not the case... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DecayToDeath Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 I'm going tonight, I'll report back on what they've got. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hallowken78 Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Saw them last night and since it was a festival they couldn't set up a merch booth - they just got to throw a few shirts in with the festival merch tent. Alas, there was no 7". I also did some digging on pics of their merch booth on instagram and it looks like they haven't had any vinyl on sale for this tour thus far. Kinda stunk only seeing them play 7 songs and pay $40 to park, but I can't say no to Ghost. There was definitely a little bit lacking in their stage swag with Omega gone and the new female ghoul trying to settle in. They actually did a signing after they performed for FYE. I planned everything out and got in line with haste only to find out you had to have previously purchased something from the FYE tent in order to get a wristband to participate. Unfortunately they were tapped out of everything except for Meliora on cd, so I decided to pass at that point since the line was way too long.

Yup, the band hasn't made any statement and there have been lineup changes in the past, however it's a lot more noticeable when it's a woman wearing a ghoul outfit. Apparently their bassist is now filling Omega's shoes and 'ghuleh' is rumored to be the bassist from Bolt Thrower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clerk3745 Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 I'd rather they not make any statement honestly. I get the schtick and the fact they're nameless ghouls is one of the best parts. I don't want to know what he does from here and I honestly don't care who she was before. But thats just me, anybody else wants to dig into who they are, have at it. kannibal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be interested to know who writes the songs and if different "ghouls" have written different songs. This is solely to give credit where it is due, as, for example it really sounds like they had some new ghouls, or old ghouls picked up their game on Meluora. Some of the playing is awesome on that album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
