God is abcent. Final song on the three thirst albums. Go back and you will find out that they are connected and starts with "Lucifer we are here" on Opus and this is how it ends on Meliora. All of your imaginations are now running down your face is a fantastic line!
The first 3 albums have a very clear narrative in terms of their concept album aspect. Opus tells the story of a ritualistic cult preparing for the birth of the antichrist, Infestisumam tells the story of the birth and rise of the antichrist, and Meliora tells the story of the world in reign of the antichrist, and by the end God is absent from the Earth. Of course, as Ghost always does, these are just stories, and the albums have more human and literal meanings deeper down. As far as this story goes, this song is the finale of all 3 albums. I think Prequelle is called as such since it takes place hundreds of years in the past. I'm not sure yet if Impera has any involvement in story or if it's just it's own.
I've always loved that the albums tell a story. I think Impera may be a new beginning. Or maybe it's the sequel to Meliora? But it seems the most disconnected from the other 4 in terms of story.
@@afrodisiac6270 I mean, you could easily see it as a continuation to the future after Meliora. The Clergy lead the masses, the Antichrist’s empire is at its height, but make no mistake, it _will_ fall. Everything does.
Yes! Deus in Absentia is such a pretty song and a wonderful way to end Meliora proper (the deluxe version of Meliora ends with a cover song called Bible, which also thematically works as an ending). It always makes me want to sing and sway along with it. Meliora is my favorite album by them, it's just fantastic!!! I'm so happy that you've been enjoying these songs and providing such great commentary for each one! It's almost like I'm listening to Ghost for the first time all over again. I can't wait until you guys get to Mary on a Cross!
Thanks yeah I know exactly what you mean! It’s like showing your favorite movie to a best friend who has never seen it before. It feels like experiencing it for the first time again!
Love this song! Deus in absentia means something along the lines of in the absence of God. It seems like the first time you hear the choir in this song, theyre crying out to God; who as the song progresses, never shows. Its dark If you guys wanna hear some older ones by them, I recommend Monstrance clock (they end a lot of their concerts with it), Ghouleh/zombie queen, Prime mover, and con clavi con dio. Another wonderful newer ghost song is "Mary on a cross". They also have a haunting cover of here comes the sun
I'd almost forgotten how much I loved the choirs in the piece. Reminds me out of something from The Omen or Rosemary's Baby. Most of us also know that Deus in Absentia is very rare to hear on stage.
I think it’s fair to say this would be a huge technical challenge with the odd rhythm structure to pull off live. Not impossible but probably takes 5x more effort to prepare for live performance than most songs.
Haha someone else who thinks of Arny in true lies. It’s such an awesome, beautiful song and I love the lyrics. Tobias sure knows how to finish an album strongly.
I like to think the choir at the beginning is the masses crying out for salvation, only for them to realize they have been forsaken... and then the very next song they released was Square Hammer, the devil taking the role of "the saviour" of the masses
Its a diverse load of songs with ghost and i think thats one of the best selling points when it comes to myself. Great content and oh, if you continue on with ghost you should really check out Mary on a cross, i didnt know what to make of it the first time i heard it :)
Check out ATOMSHIP - MOTHRA. Amazing drums and a very cool rock/metal song. …and while you’re on a Ghost kick, don’t forget ZOMBIE QUEEN and MONSTRANCE CLOCK and their covers of It’s A Sin and Avalanche.
Most of their music is a criticism of the modern day church and religion actually what religion as always been a plague on people. Tobias as stated he’s not an actual satanist but I do believe he uses Satan the same way Satanist use Satan. He’s a symbol for individuality and self worship going against those who want to control you. Many satanist, such as myself don’t actually believe in the devil nor do we believe in god.
I was drawing a distinction between good popular music and the drivel that people who don’t really like music listen to that somehow tops the billboard charts.

Impera is about the circularity of our existence, rise and fall, destruction and rebuilding, life and death. Everything repeats in cycles
@@DaP84 Well I know that. That's more the "meaning", not the story, though.

The choir at the end of this has always felt really haunting to me. Love it.

@@FlameImperishable Wow! Thank you so much guys! I will shoot you an email.

Ghost - Mary on a cross, trust me 🥰
Goosebumps from this song and the reaction . . Thank you!
Now unto my next favorite . . Majesty!
That’s coming up next’
This song gives me comfort, the world is indeed on fire.
Ghost - Here comes the sun... 🍷

I was VERY lucky to see them do it live

the music evokes introspection. very well done
Meliora is my favorite album from Ghost. Awesome reaction, now we need "Spirit" and "Majesty" reactions.
Spirit would fit in Scooby-Doo.
The intro to that alone would fit in the show.
Meliora is also my favorite album
When you are old like me..you can say you played Ghost n goblins on the Commodore 64 =D
My first video game was Simons quest on the original Nintendo. 😀
Me too . Never got very far thou. Such a hard game. I don't know anyone who actually made it.
Can’t wait to see your reaction to their cover of Bible.

A family that Mortal Kombat together, stay together. Haha.
I beleive that they worked with a choice in LA with this one. Not sure which one though!
Check out ATOMSHIP - MOTHRA. Amazing drums and a very cool rock/metal song.
…and while you’re on a Ghost kick, don’t forget ZOMBIE QUEEN and MONSTRANCE CLOCK and their covers of It’s A Sin and Avalanche.
One of my favorites
I always wanted a MediEvil game with soundtrack of Ghost. It would be funny and spooky.
Deus in Absentia is a gorgeous song.
Y'all should react to "He Is." That'll catch you off guard
I think we already did! 😬
React to Ghost-Monstrance clock
Underrated. Funny you do this now.
There’s no method to the order! 😜
you guys will love *mary on a cross* by ghost! check it out

Are you injecting saline in your biceps?
I think you mean synthol oil? No mine are just hard work! 😁
God gives up on you? What? I don't think that's what you really meant. You can be forgiven,if you truly repent. Tobais is an atheist. Not a satanist.
I think you misunderstand what she meant.
“We don’t discuss pop music on this channel”
But you’re listening to Ghost!😏
What they mean is bubblegum pop.
There is pop and ther's pop. Ghost is on the great side of "pop"

@@skinnybricks that label and Scoobydoom are outdated since a couple of albums
