What genre is this?

Neo-buttrock.
Pleb filtered. Ghost is shit.

They're not buttrock, but there's nothing wrong with buttrock anyway.

"Ghost is Scooby Doo chase music" is still my all time favourite Yea Forums meme.

They sound like that. Buttrock sucks because it's late 70s corporate shit made to sell to stupid morons. It has no guts, no attitude, it's just... butt music.

hey is that cover a reference to sepultura's bestial devastation? if so thats pretty cool

Not even commenting on the quality of Ghost's music here, you are literally using the term buttrock wrong. Buttrock is a term used for the radio rock of the late 90s to mid-late 00s, overproduced nu-metal and post-grunge. Papa Roach, Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit, Creed, Staind, Nickelback, Theory of a Deadman etc.

Same music, different period.

It's not the same music at all. Just because something is mainstream rock doesn't mean it's buttrock

It does not sound the same, but outside of that it has many similarities:
>made to sell well, therefore having no artistic element
>sound outdated
>not inspiring at all
>masses consume it as a substituent to actual music
It's really the same music.

You're not wrong, but all of those things apply to bro country as well but you wouldn't call Ghost bro country because it's so obviously not part of the genre

There is music similar to buttrock in other genres, as well.
Bro country is the buttrock equivalent of country, Ghost is buttrock LARPing as metal.

>I don't like this popular band, I don't like popular bands! I swear, bro!

It's fine liking popular music, as long as it's good.

Wrong. The epitome of buttock was Whitesnake, but is essentially Zeppelin’s fault.

Glam spoopy rock

70's Eurovision nostalgia.

that looks more like their first album
it's based on that pope painting

the grim imagery really doesnt work with their sound

>made to sell well, therefore having no artistic element
Idiot

which of those apply to ghost?
