GHOST'S SINGLE "RATS" MAINTAINS ITS #1 POSITION AT ROCK RADIO FOR SEVEN CONSECUTIVE WEEKS

Now The Longest-Running #1 Rock Radio Single of the Year

Sold Out Concert at London's Royal Albert Hall on September 9,

North American Fall Tour Starts October 25

LOS ANGELES, CA -- (Wednesday, August 15, 2018) -- "Rats," the latest single from the Grammy Award-winning Swedish hard rock band Ghost, today enters its seventh consecutive week as the #1 song at Rock Radio, becoming the longest-running track to top that chart this year. Released this past Spring, "Rats" has already accumulated more than 25-million streams worldwide, and the companion music video has logged more than 11-million views.

"Rats" is the lead single from Ghost's new album Prequelle that was released on June 1, 2018 (Loma Vista Records). The album was loosely influenced by The Black Plague, the devasting pandemic that wiped out more than 20-million people across Europe in the 14th century, the disease being carried by rats. However, as Ghost's mastermind, Tobias Forge recently told Revolver, "'Rats' is not technically about rodents. It's about something spreading as wildfire and completely destroying things quicker than you know."

Ghost will hit the road this Fall for its "A Pale Tour Named Death" tour that commences October 25 in Dallas, Texas, and includes two headline arena shows, The Forum in Los Angeles on November 16, and New York City's Barclays Center on December 15. The complete itinerary is as follows:
