GHOST release Life Eternal video from the night Cardinal Copia was retired

04 March 2021

Last March, GHOST brought their A Pale Tour Named Death tour to a close with a final show at the Palacio de los Deportes in Mexico City, Mexico.

At the end of the show – in a stunt that's become something of a tradition with the band – Tobias Forge closed the Prequelle album cycle by retiring the onstage persona he'd been using since 2018, Cardinal Copia, and introducing the next: Papa Emeritus IV.

Now footage shot on the night has been used to make a video for Life Eternal, the closing track on Prequelle.

GHOST’s next studio album is expected to be released this year, with Forge previously saying the album could contain “slightly more riffage.”
