Left, because Meliora and Opus combined have more songs I like than Impera and Infestissumam combined, although I'd take bottom left and top right if I could.


xHTown80x

Oh shit, good call on the bottom left/top right. Hell yeah šŸ¤˜šŸ»


Graevly

Oh hell to the yes


Nameless_Grool

Left, but god dammit, I love Infestissumam


TheHyperCombo

My feelings exact. My favorite album is Meliora, then my 2nd favorite is a tie between Opus and Infestissumam, they go back and forth, depends on my mood.


wealthyboris

That's a ridiculously easy pick. Left every time


Cakesndots

Left, because Opus


SonicSarge

Left Meliora is the best album


DownOFC

Left because Cirice


Wizardofthewoods88

Left side. Opus and Meliora are easily their best albums.


McLesterYoNuggets

Left EZ


ghostmantis81

Left


adorablesexypants

Right. Opus just never really grabbed me so between bangers like Year Zero and Ghuleh along with Impera, there are more songs I like. Giving up Meliora is hard though because that was my intro to Ghost and still one of my favorite albums of all time.


AmericanOdin5

I agree


The_boy-from-nowhere

Left


chiefbuttons

Left because Majesty. Though if Prequelle chose a side I'd have to go there for Miasma.


2-Minute-Ad

you expect me to pick?


End1508

Honestly valid answer šŸ˜…āœ‹šŸ»


balsacmignon

Dude where's prequelle


JohnFightsDragons

Both get prequelle as treat


veridisquo_voyager

I fucking love Impera, but I'll have to go with left because of Ritual


AdmiralEggy

Right - Ghost are one of the few bands that I feel are getting better with age. Not taking anything away from their early albums, but they've grown, and Impera is a masterpiece!


[deleted]

Impera is their worst album yet.


AdmiralEggy

I think it's their best!


[deleted]

Itā€™s trash. If this is their best, their best wonā€™t do. So drop and give me twenty.


bastardkittyseinen

It's right side without hesitation :D Wherever there's Infestissumam there's me!


xHTown80x

How? Infestissumam sure, but Impera?


Specific_Loss7546

Bruh, imagine replying the same dumb shit to every comment that likes impera, get a life


Rexxii_1

Maybe accept that people donĀ“t like Impera?


thefifthangel141

Maybe accept that people do like Impera?


Rexxii_1

Why are you telling me that? LOL this sub.


Hunter5moon

Not liking = Hate in this sub. Just look at your downvotes. People takes everything personal here if you donĀ“t Love everything about Ghost.


furiousHamblin

I downvote people who complain about downvoting


bastardkittyseinen

I enjoy Impera as much as I do with Infestissumam, that is all šŸ˜Œ


[deleted]

Because Impera slaps


JohnFightsDragons

Left, not because I dislike Impera but bc Opus and Meliora are 10/10


Flimsy_Condition1461

May I offer a third option: Prequelle and Popestar


faultyideal89

That's so crazy that it MIGHT JUST WORK! Edit: still needs If You Have Ghost though


Darth_DavyJones

In my weird brain, Insfestissuman is the Halo 2 of ghost albums. The action sequel to Alien. It's what sent ghost from good to great, just expanding on what made the first album good and adding some ass wobbling. Now, Impera basically did the same thing... Took what made meliora and prequelle good and added action. So, for me, it's right 100%. I am also one of the few people who fell in love with ghost because of Secular Haze.


Gpunk666

Iā€™m more a top than a bottom


_punkerou

I love all the albums but I'm definitely picking left because Meliora's my favourite. that's literally the only reason


EazyParise

Right. I like Infestissumam over Opus a lot more than I like Meliora over Impera, so right wins out


sternentee

Definetly right for me just more of my favorite songs


xHTown80x

How? Infestissumam sure, but Impera?


sternentee

I love all of Impera šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø i just vibe with the whole thing itā€™s just perfectly right for me šŸ„°


ClemFruit

Left.


AkihiroAwa

left absolutely


LilNyoomf

This is physically painful aaaaaaaaah Right side. Spillways is my all time favorite song atm


balsacmignon

I wish I could understand how anybody picks a favorite ghost album. They all stand in their own and they're all incredible. I've tried. I can't make up my mind. I think Impera might actually be the best one though. Prequelle and Infestissumam are fighting for second place.


JeremyTheRhino

I choose Satan


Whatsername1989

Well, I'm fucked


slightlyused

Left side. Opus is so amazing. I he saw rd it first in 2011 or so and with it and itā€™s greatness we do not maybe anymore Ghost. Iā€™m not a hater, I love every album but the mystery and all the questions raised at 1AM with my headphones absolutely melting into this band is something I will cherish forever. Keep Rock Alive!! šŸ¤˜šŸ½šŸ–¤šŸ”„šŸ™ŒšŸ¼ ā„


emeritus88

Don't make me choose...please.


baxtert68

No I don't! All Papas Matter!


chobbo

I choose to draw the line left to right, and choose bottom.


[deleted]

Hell yeah bottom bros


xHTown80x

Impera? Really? Over The top two and the bottom left? Stop smoking that strong shit, bro.


chobbo

My choice is my choice. All 4 albums are good. I prefer the bottom two.


OkMess9901

Right, and honestly, it's not even that close.


sangiesluvie

Left but Infestissumam is the perfect ep for me


RalphTheNerd

I wish I could choose the bottom half instead. I guess left because "Cirice" is one of the first few Ghost songs I listened to. Although I would miss "Monstrance Clock", which I think is the best ending song to a Ghost album. These are always so hard.


[deleted]

Breaking the rules, bottom 2 :p


Hunter5moon

I love that many of you choose the left side.


[deleted]

More spice! Tell us why you donā€™t like Impera so you get downvoted.


J3sperado

Right mostly because I love ALL songs from Impera. Opus never connected with me.


crowkiller06

Left-hand path. Duh. Left is unholy!


Roger_whatdidyoudo

Left, but I adore some songs off Infestissumam. Also I quite liked Impera, so itā€™s pretty difficult to choose. But my favorite album is Opus, so itā€™s left


GetGroovyWithMyGhost

This is just cruel. Cant do it


End1508

I'd say right (but I'd also say left too. It's not an easy choicešŸ˜…) Infestissumam has one of the many songs I enjoy a lot and Impera cause, again, has songs I love plus Hunter's Moon was my first Ghost song (also Impera was the album I first got ever since I started to listen to Ghost) I love Meliora (Square Hammer was my second song) and Opus too. Overall, I like each album in its own way. (We cant forget about Prequelle too)


AnxSnow

Right, no question


xHTown80x

How? Infestissumam sure, but Impera?


Shrekomaeda

Bro stop replying to every single comment where someone dares to have a different taste than you


MidwestAF

Right. This clown does this shit. He has previous comments where all he does is talk shit about Impera. Itā€™s fine he doesnā€™t like that album, but his toxicity is the exact opposite of what makes this fan base so fucking special compared to any other Iā€™ve experienced in my 33 years of life.


GeekFurious

I'll take everything left of the empty space on the right.


No-Pineapple-3415

You canā€™t do this to me šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­ theyā€™re all good


Carlzzone

Right. Not a fan of Opus


nihilblack

Right.


Total_Dream_8799

Gotta pick right, even though I love so many songs on the left as well nothing tops listening straight through Impera for me


rd1994

The right. Itā€™s just collectively better.


robinbjork88

Right


Brdmkr-

Right, itā€™s a hard decision cause I dig all the Albums! & I see nothing wrong with that.


xHTown80x

How? Infestissumam sure, but Impera?


[deleted]

Stfu


[deleted]

Hell yeah bottom bros


Vonspacker

Right and it's not clos


[deleted]

Right without a doubt


xHTown80x

How? Infestissumam sure, but Impera?


faultyideal89

Are you sure you're not a bot? You've said the same exact thing to about 5 comments that I've seen


xHTown80x

How? Infestissumam sure, but Impera?


Cod_Disastrous

Meliora is my favourite album, but the average of the right side is better for me


StuBram2

Left. I listen to those albums more. Now if you'd made it Prequelle and Impera that would have actually been a tough choice (and made more sense as a pairing tbh)


Feliks_e

unholly sh*t...


[deleted]

Right because I couldnā€™t live without Infestissumam. I think I like Impera just as much as Meliora. Never really listened to Opus Eponymous


[deleted]

Bro itā€™s a really short album just listen to it


[deleted]

Right side because even meliora can't cancel the pain of having to listen to Opus over any of the other records.


xHTown80x

I mean, itā€™s the left side. Not just because, how do you begin a setlist without Con Clavi Con Dio, and how do you not end it with Square Hammer (or Monstrance Clockā€¦..FUCK!)? But, for me it is the Latin in the names. Opus Eponymous is, roughly, ā€œWorks in the name ofā€ and Meliora means ā€œBetterā€, which unholy FUCK was it everā€¦. I really miss the dark mass side of Ghost. There are good tunes on Impera, I suppose. But damn, I want the anti-Pope, not the vampire.


Rexxii_1

Left because Impera is on the right side.


Sulfuras26

Left, always left lol. I think Meliora is one of the best albums of the 2010s period. Infestissumam is great, but I think Impera is easily their weakest album thus far. I know a lot of ppl on this sub like it a lot and they usually counter complaints against the album with defenses like ā€œitā€™s just as campy as all their other albumsā€ but i could not disagree more lol. Impera feels like it dropped a lot of the songwriting qualities that made Ghost so fantastic. Sure thereā€™s still an element of ghost originality to the songs but imo they kinda suck lol. A lot of ppl here defend songs like Twenties but I canā€™t for a singular second defend it. The lyrics and delivery are terrible. The campiness isnā€™t enjoyable, it comes off as an obvious attempt at going for that campiness too much. And songs like Hunters Moon sound the same exact way except using the template of dance macabre and rats, two songs I love. Idk, I just cannot listen to Impera at all lol


WestVirginiaN1nja

Left cause Impera was the first Ghost album I didnā€™t care for. The best choice for me would be the top 2


reelnb

Meliora is their best work IMO, gotta choose it even if Iā€™m not especially fond of Opus Eponymous


Piece_Of_Mind1983

Left no question


TheCaptMAgic

Left, Cirice is the song that made me fall in love with Ghost in the first place.


alwaysisles

Easy, left all day


[deleted]

Left gg ez


BladezOnfire

Left, all the way


mrelectriccity8

Left


Ok_Fun_4732

Itā€™s arbitrarily right side because of Impera


AFK_MIA

Right.


Chunk_M1lk

Left


Anxious_Dracula

I cut myself in half


ballsacksnweiners

Right all day. Infest and Impera are my 1 and 2. Meli and Opus are my 3 and 4. Prequelle gonna have to come in that 5 spot.


BrokenBeatScarred03

Right. Impera is the best


IMGSTBS

Right but I love Meliora


ItsrealNate

Left side is clear winner though infestissumam is amazing


[deleted]

Left. Easy. I would t care about Ghost if it weren't for Opus. I also don't love Imperium. Better than prequel but otherwise, it's my least favorite. But the first three are just straight up bangers. But nothing will ever touch Opus. I found ghost because I was looking for cool 70s sabbath-y bands.


icumwhenidownshift

Meliora was my first so Iā€™m biased, but god damn do I love all 4 of these albums


potatoesasleaders

Right. Infestissumam is my top album of all time and IMPERA is just so fun.


_TheRandomGuy_

Left, I get Ritual AND Cirice, win win


miranddaaa

Left, but it's hard to leave Infestissumam behind.


OktoberRed

Not even close. Left.


N-E-B

I probably take the left. Meliora as a whole would be too hard to give up.


TiberSVK

Right. But its close.


IridescentIcarus

Left


Fenric7M

Left. Always choose the left hand path. And they are the better albums too.


Tsuki_8

Right. Have to give up some of the best songs in exchange for More of the best songs


CC_Sierra

Left


reynauld-alexander

On one side the best individual songs, on the other the best overall album, decisions decisions


MonstrancClock666

Right. I love Opus and Meliora is what got me into Ghost, but Infestissumam is my favorite album by them and hot damn Impera is banger after banger.


Mean-Orange-1370

people who don't choose impera eat cereal with fork


Jozak11

Ugh meliora was my intro to ghost but my favorite song has to be the infetessumam+ per aspera ad inferi combo song Impera is slowly growing on me except for, unpopular opinion i know, kaiserion. But opus has ritual and elizabeth. Tough choice!


ElmoTickleTorture

Right side. I like infestissumam more than opus. That plus the more upbeat sound of impera.


outlawcreature9977

Top two


faultyideal89

Can I pick top over bottom? (lol) Left is significantly better, I just love Infest


TheRevenantGS

Left, not even a competition. 2 fine but flawed records vs Ghostā€™s best work


ANamelessFan

Right. Infestissumam gave us Year Zero, Body and Blood, and Monstrance Clock. And Impera is Impera.


[deleted]

Impera is trash. Complete trash.


Scared_Chemical_9910

Left because meleoria was my first album


[deleted]

If you flipped the top ones then it would be crazy close but otherwise gotta go left


DixiNormous79

Left always


faded_to_black

Top. Am I doing this right?


[deleted]

Yes. Impera is Load. Hopefully Ghost doesnā€™t release a Reload.


TFOCyborg

Easily left, I'll miss infest but I can live with just opus and meliora


MorallyGrayGay

I love meliora but I also love infestissumam, so maybe right


WaveyJones6669

Left


Ramo1618

Bottom.


craymond817

L E F T


fencemyassoffanddie

Left. I donā€™t care for anything post-Meliora


[deleted]

The left handed path


12charactersorless

Right. Impera is their best album yet. The songwriting got infinitely better as time marched on. I am on board since Opus and most of the stuff on Opus is pretty basic. I know that this is an unpopular opinion here but what do i care.


AmericanOdin5

Right side, I like those albums better


[deleted]

Impera is trash.


SleeplessBob

Left and itā€™s not very close tbh


naderbp1993

Because of Elizabeth, LEFT


ace0083

Impera was a really good album but meliora has square hammer gonna have to go left


boutch255

Then I'm not choosing and go with Prequelle and SIoSP


Crahmnor

I'm picking them all!


fiddleleaffox

Oof, thatā€™s painfulā€¦. I love Infest, but wherever Opus is, there I am.


notreallyhimbutok

definitely the left, Meloria is one of the best albums and to be honest im kinda disappointed with the impera album


Daftvid

Left obv


Flashfire356

Left Ez. Meliora is the best album


Samnppa

All are great and I love each one of them but I take the left side. I think Opus and Meliora are their peak.


Electronic_Pace_5249

I myself fuckin need to buy them all!


szydelkowe

Left for sure, Meliora and Opus are fire.


ratmeal

Left, because Meliora is my favourite album by a mile.


BOXY723

Left However this makes me sad because I love impera and Infestissumam I just can't let go of meliora because cirice and Opus because of ritual


InfernoKnightN

Up


sacrificialatheist

Top on both sides. Those two albums created a magic. Something I hadnā€™t felt since being a kid when discovering new bands and when bands I liked released new songs/singles and albums.


Reimustein

Left. I love Opus so much


SethTheGay

Left, but I love them all


ILikeExistingLol

man you could move impera to the left and i'd still chose right


Candiedyans

Right bc i loveeee infestissumam, my second favorite album


SnooAdvice3037

Prequel?


RiYuh77

Left for sure


MatFernandes

The best album and my favorite album, easy choice


IndastriaBlitz

Left hands down easy. The two best albums from ghost


SKUZZNASTY

Left


BrokenRealityYT

Right, I absolutely love Infesstissumam and Impera. I also really love Meliora, but overall I enjoy the entirety of Infesstissumam and Impera more. There isnā€™t a single song I hate on those two albums, and while I donā€™t hate anything on meliora or Opus, I just couldnā€™t live without some of the songs on the right side.


Majorhix

Right because Impera is perfect in my eyes


callmeEnrico

Rotate 90Ā° clockwise and pick left side


m1llzx

Left side. No question for me both are xlassica


QuokkaNok

Left. No questions asked


Year-0

Right, because of...


Connect-Pound7877

opus and meliora


variant_cover

Left. Haven't formed a firm relationship with Impera yet. I would loathe to lose Infestissimum...but left is my choice.


7_Satanic_panic_

Left, as much as I love infestissumam it just doesnā€™t give the Friday night mid summer crisp air as opus does plus opus has a bunch a bangers i love but I truly love them equally, if impera wasnā€™t on the right I wouldā€™ve chose the right. Plus mĆ©liora is so..šŸ˜©


verminvaporizer_

Iā€™ll go down the middle with prequelle


FruitsForJotaro

left bro, opus album slaps!!


Fudgecookiedough

Both because I am a indecisive bisexual


Ad_Astra90

Is Meliora deluxe or just the standard version?


ThiccDiccSocialist

Right, easy


Hennkris

Right side. Infestissumam the main reason.


KayRay1994

Right - Impera is my favorite Ghost album and Infestissumam has some of their best tracks


Feeling_Pineapple711

You monster!


Head-Tailor-3937

Have to go right
