Album Notes & Community Reviews
Produced by band leader Tobias Forge, 'Skelet谩' continues Ghost's trajectory into arena rock while incorporating elements of hard rock, glam metal, and pop. The album is noted as the band's most introspective work, introducing the new persona of Papa V Perpetua to explore themes of guilt, faith, failure, and mortality. A significant commercial success, 'Skelet谩' became the Swedish group's first album to debut at number one on the US Billboard 200 chart.
