ghost

Our resident death metal connoisseur details his top heavy albums of 2010s (beyond just death metal, of course). Here, Langdon features Enslaved, Ghost, YOB, and more.

Ghost's “A Pale Tour Named Death” tour -- a wild, somewhat long-winded, and theatrical journey -- winds down in Upper Darby, Pennsylvania.

Ghost are serving as direct support to Maiden this time around, but also have a bunch of their own headlining dates along the way. Check out all tour dates.

More dates behind Maiden's 2015 double album 'The Book of Souls'

Because it's a singles market, and because we still need to talk about "Square Hammer"

Ghost's tightest, catchiest song yet

The value of a little levity

While tourmates Ghost and The Sword have a foot in the metal world (even if they aren't that metal), Purson aren't metal at all. Their new album Desire’s Magic Theater comes out April 29 via Spinefarm (pre-order), and the new single "The Window Cleaner" is the kind of '60s-psych revival that wouldn't have been out of place at Monterey Pop Festival. The closest this song gets to heavy is a fuzzed-out riff that sounds like it could go into "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida."

Iron Maiden's tour starts in force this week and they've added loads more dates in Europe, South America, Asia, and Australia on top of North America.
