Update<\/strong>: It’s out and you can stream it right here.<\/p>\n

Original story<\/strong>: Ghost<\/strong> have unveiled a brand-new lore chapter \u2014 and for once, they kept it brief. The newly released video confirms that the band will officially release their cover of Pet Shop Boys<\/strong>‘ “It’s A Sin” on all streaming platforms on January 16. The track originally appeared as a bonus cut on 2018’s Prequelle<\/em>, making this the first time the song will be widely available across digital services.<\/p>\n

In the video, Frater Imperator<\/strong> addresses the faithful directly, delivering both good news and a dose of clarity. While the arrival of “It’s A Sin” is finally happening, he also puts speculation to rest by confirming that a new covers EP is not in the works.<\/p>\n

That clarification is notable, as Ghost<\/strong> have a well-established history of standalone covers releases, including If You Have Ghost<\/em> in 2013, Popestar<\/em> in 2016, and Phantomime<\/em> in 2023. For now, “It’s A Sin” stands alone \u2014 no companion EP, no expanded covers project. Just a long-requested fan favorite finally freed from bonus-track limbo.<\/p>\n

Speaking of Ghost<\/strong>, their new record Skelet\u00e1<\/em> was clearly pretty damn popular, as it became the first rock record to hit No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart since since AC\/DC<\/strong>‘s Power Up<\/em> in 2020. Skelet\u00e1<\/em> moved 86,000 units in its first week, which is especially impressive considering 77,000 of those units were physical media sales \u2013 even crazier, 44,000 of those units were vinyl sales.<\/p>\n

Skelet\u00e1<\/em> also landed at No. 1 on the U.S. Album, Vinyl Album, Indie Store Album, Independent Album, Rock Album, Rock and Alternative Album, and Hard Rock Album charts.
