Ghost announces ‘Meliora 10th Anniversary Edition’

Several vinyl variants will be available this fall

Today, August 21st, marks the tenth anniversary of the release of Ghost’s Meliora, and with it the announcement of an array of limited edition double vinyl variants to be released this fall.

The band’s classic third studio album, Meliora, is packed with fan-favorite tracks that have been raising tens of thousands of voices in unison nightly on the band’s current Skeletour World Tour 2025, including “He Is,” “Mummy Dust,” “Spirit,” and 2015 Best Metal Performance Grammy winner “Cirice.” From Ghost’s Papa Emeritus III era, Meliora’s themes explore humanity’s pursuit of progress and its potential consequences, often in dystopian or futuristic context.

The special tenth anniversary edition of Meliora arrives October 17th as a deluxe 15-song 2 LP featuring the RIAA-certified platinum single “Square Hammer,” pressed on color vinyl and packaged in a double wide spine jacket — and including a commemorative Papa III Mummy Dust buck.
