Meliora Deluxe

Absolutely killer album. There is no track that bores & even though I got this years ago, I still love it enough to post a review that no one really needs at this point; it just came up in my review feed. All Hail Ghost!

Fantastic Music

Didn’t take long to get

Great! Item was as described.. it's Ghost. Can't go wrong.

Exquisite

I just got into Ghost a few months ago. I love all music genres, except for rap from 2000 to today (can’t stand it actually).I read a few things about the band, and figured they were just another death metal band. Then one day I gave Meliora a listen in Spotify, and I was very confused. They have a vet rock/pop/synth Iron Maiden meets Journey type of sound.I didn’t know what to think about it. I had sort of forgot about for a while.I was on YouTube one day and it recommended I watch the video for Square Hammer. Instant love!!I finally understood the angle that they were going for and stopped trying to analyze everything and just enjoy the music.As for this record itself, I’m just getting into it, and I will listen more before final judgement, but I feel like it’s not as good as Prequelle. Not even close.The included Popestar EP I think is fantastic.So for the price, you might as well get the deluxe.I was sad I had to buy these on CD because I mostly listen to vinyl, but I read all the bad reviews about how bad the pressings are with the records. Loma Vista needs to get the stuff together. When they do, I’ll buy their vinyl releases.As for the product itself, it came in an amazon bubble mailer with no extra protection, but the case was fine. Nothing broken.

Great album from the band Ghost!!!

Ghost's Meliora is a wonderful album, but I'm a little disappointed in this vinyl. I decided to go with the deluxe version because it came with Popestar. There isn't really anything else that makes this "deluxe." I guess I was expecting some art or a booklet, but you really just get the sleeve and the two records. The sleeve is also missing the cool art on the back of the regular edition of Meliora.Popestar was fine, but the actual press of the Meliora album was not great. There was a huge piece of plastic stuck in the hole of my copy and I had to very anxiously push it around to even get it to fit on my record player.
