The Road to Skeletá series "Forges" ahead with the annointment of Cardinal Copia to Papa Emeritus status, 80's Hair-Metal influences, and songs that slap so hard they'll have you saying "Hell Yeah, Brother!" on more than one occasion. This is our discussion on Ghost's fifth (and arguably most commercial) Sacred Psalm, Impera.

Our Road to Skeletá series continues with the emergence of Papa Emeritus Zero (Papa Nihil), the rise of Cardinal Copia as Ghost's new frontman, and the band's fourth Sacred Psalm "Prequelle." This album was an entry point for many new fans but, also massively divisive to many who had been there since the beginning. We discuss all of this as well as breaking down the album track by track.
