Sorry, dude who started this Change.org petition requesting that the Swedish metal band Ghost split up: a band named Ghost is disbanding, but it’s not the one you’re targeting. It’s the Japanese experimental psychedelic band Ghost, breaking up after 30 years and eight albums.
Ghost’s leader, Masaki Batoh, announced the group’s split on their Facebook page. The Drag City band has played together since 1984.
Batoh’s somewhat cryptic message also mentions a solo follow-up to 2012’s Brain Pulse Music, due out on Drag City in 2015, and hints at the emergence of a new band, The Silence, sometime “after spring.” Read the full statement below:
Ghost is dissolved. Since 1984 to 2014
Look forward Masaki Batoh’s solo work out in January 2015 from Drag City.
And also new band “The Silence” that should be out after spring.
Share this announcement everybody.Masaki Batoh 9 Aug 2014 Tokyo
