Experience the genesis of a global phenomenon.
Originally released in 2010, Opus Eponymous is the debut studio album by the enigmatic Swedish rock band Ghost. This reissue, brought to you by Rise Above Records, breathes new life into the record that introduced the world to the theatrical brilliance of Tobias Forge (appearing as the devilish Papa Emeritus) and his Nameless Ghouls.
Musically, Opus Eponymous is defined by a "daringly beautiful" fusion of heavy Satanic rock and an almost unthinkable pop sensibility. While many metal acts lean into aggression, Ghost found their niche by pairing dark, liturgical themes with infectious, hook-ridden melodies. This album serves as the first chapter in their conceptual trilogy, specifically focusing on the birth of the Anti-Christ.
Key features of this release:
- Genre-Defying Sound: A must-have for fans of heavy metal, 70s rock, and theatrical performances reminiscent of KISS and Alice Cooper.
- Thematic Depth: Explores the darker side of faith and ritual through what critics call "infernal psalms."
- Legacy: The foundational work that paved the way for future hits like Infestissumam and Meliora.
Whether you are a devout follower of the clergy or a newcomer to their "Satanic pop" allure, this CD reissue is an essential piece of modern rock history.
