By this, I mean: Since Nergal of Behemoth posted that picture of Papa Emeritus II without the cloak and makeup,
has some of the intrigue gone with the mystery? Was Emeritus staying anonymous part of the "fun" of listening to Ghost?

mmm...... good question...... I can speak for myself...... surely in metal and music in general the "visual" aspects are part of the game...... but for me it's not so important if KISS are masked or un-masked, if King Diamond goes on painting his face, if Demonaz and Abbath are really two demons or if they are only two suckers, or if Papa Emeritus II is a really person or if he has a skeletal face for real...... it can (relatively) matter if we are speaking of live shows...... for me what is important is the music...... I don't give a sh...t of the rest, painted or not painted

I think new album is with Papa Emeritus III....

The "problem" is when the visual aspects get over the music...... I mean when we are talking about a band only because of how much it is impressive to see, but the music, in the end, is nothing special...... I think about, for example, MARILYN MANSON...... musically he makes music that Rob Zombie made (first and better) yet 15 years before with WHITE ZOMBIE...... and what does remain? uuuh! how much outrageous is Marilyn Manson! uuuh! how much offensive! uuuh! how much useless!!

Diciamo che primo, secondo o terzo, con 'ste minchiate hanno rotto gli emeriti!!

the first time i heard the first Ghost cd i had no idea who they were or what they looked like but thought the album was awsome,with the internet now you can find out who the band really are but whats the point?
I like the music thats all that matters to me plus they are great live!!
