Graham from Loudwire is all of us when it comes to Tobias.

I think the fact that Copia stayed for 2 album cycles made us too attached to him. Tobias really put a lot of personality and charisma on him. It will be weird when he's gone. But I trust the man, I'm sure he prepared something good for the next frontman. 🙂

I'm sure it's weird for Tobias too! I remember an interview (I think it was with Värvet on YT) where he talked about the process of creating a new character and how when he stands in front of the mirror in a new mask for the first time it's always an odd feeling, like looking at a stranger. Suddenly he's a brand new person basically! It takes a couple of weeks of touring before he gets used to it, so the first shows are always a little cumbersome and the new guy sometimes acts a lot like the old one until he develops his own traits, habits and jokes. It's really fun to witness this transformation in time.

There’s an interview with Martin in the new issue of Sweden Rock Magazine and he talks a bit about Ghost. I know some of you still miss the good ole Omega days and wonder what the hell happened in 2016 or whether he and TF are on speaking terms at all, so I translated the few parts where he talks about his time in the band..

–

There have been countless rumours about the reasons for your departure from Ghost, everything from mental illness to alcohol. I want to give you a chance to sort out what happened when you left.

MP: I don’t know if I need the chance. Well, I have severe fucking ADHD, I was diagnosed the other year. And I’ve been taking anti-depressants for 16 years, I quit three months ago. So yeah, mental ups and downs have been plenty. No more alcohol problems than the average construction worker. It’s invasive and so fucking unnecessary to delve too much into it, but in short: after six-seven years of intense fucking work, you get tired of each other in a way that might be unimaginable to someone who hasn’t experienced that kind of relationship. It wasn’t just Tobias, it was everyone towards each other. You sit on a tour bus and you don’t feel like it’s a holiday or a fun thing, but such is life. I see it as a marriage. Ask anybody, let a mate move into your living room and live together in the same room for two years. A lot happens to your personalities and even though we were anonymous, you got a boost of some feigned self-esteem that some of us never had. It was turbulent, but also really fun and beautiful to do those things with that gang. There was nothing dramatic happening, no one doing more drugs than anyone else. Me and Tobbe both thought and think good things about each other. I can say the same about Simon or keyboardist Mauro Rubino or drummer Aksel Holmgren or bassist Rikard Ottoson or guitarist Henrik Palm or whoever. But people don’t need to know everything. It’s as bizarre as me talking about my ex to the newspaper. Maybe if I lived in Hollywood, but now I live in Linköping, haha.

A couple of young Terzo Emeritus (around his early 20′s) sketches I started. I got so many headcanons about him and the ministry…

‘Now receive the corpus of Christ.’ The so-called unholy communion given out by Sisters of Sin during “Body and Blood” was a staple at almost every Ghost show during Papa II’s and III’s reigns. In the early days, however, it was Papa Emeritus himself who on a few occasions handed out wine and wafers to the crowd as the final act of the spectacle.

UPPVÄRVNING with Tobias Forge (english text)

I've never known about any translation of this interview before, Ulrika Linderoth kindly did it on FB group “School of Ghoul”  so I think it would be nice to share here too.

Enjoy!
