Popestar
Popestar is the infectious 2016 EP from Swedish occult rock outfit Ghost, arriving between albums and capturing the band at a moment of expanding global success. Blending theatrical flair with polished hooks, the EP leans into a more melodic, arena-ready sound while retaining the dark imagery and tongue-in-cheek mystique that define Ghost.
Led by Tobias Forge, the release features the standout original track “Square Hammer,” a fan-favourite anthem that became one of the band’s biggest hits. Complementing it is a selection of cover versions that highlight Ghost’s wide-ranging influences, reinterpreted through their distinctive style.
Presented as a 12" vinyl EP cut at 45 RPM, this edition delivers enhanced audio clarity and punch, making it an ideal format for the EP’s dynamic, hook-driven sound.
A concise yet essential release, Popestar showcases Ghost’s ability to merge classic rock sensibilities with a modern, theatrical edge.
