Given that Ghost has issued an EP after nearly every full-length album since the group’s founding, Tobias Forge, the band’s creator, was asked in a recent interview with Adam Wallis of Canada’s Global News if there are any plans for the band to record a new EP. This is how he replied, as per Blabbermouth.
No. As of right now, there is no EP coming. Besides the [ongoing North American leg of the ‘Skeletour’] tour that we’re doing now, we have nothing else planned. So the future is right now very open. Creatively, I have a lot to do. I’m actually recording currently, but it’s not a covers EP and it’s not a new Ghost record. So, I actually do not know exactly what and when anything will happen. And that’s a good thing, because for 15 years now we’ve been going at it nonstop, where cycles have basically just sort of been stitched together. Every time we’ve ended an album cycle, I’ve walked off stage knowing that Monday morning I will be in the studio and our next show is there. So it has been that sort of sort cyclical nonstop thinking ahead, thinking forward, expand, expand, expand, expand, for a long time, and I’ve come to a point where I’m just, like… I still have ideas, I still have dreams, I still have things that I think we have not achieved — definitely the wish list is still there — but that’s gonna be at some other point.
