Ghost leader Tobias Forge says he has the next five years planned out for the band.
They released their fourth studio album Prequelle earlier this month, but that hasn’t stopped Forge looking ahead to what he and the the Swedish outfit have in store for fans further down the line.
When asked if he had ideas for Ghost’s next album, Forge tells radio station Rock 100.5 The KATT (via Blabbermouth): “I know what we're going to do next time, yes. It will be a work in progress up until the day that I master the album. But I know where the story sort of goes.
“And with simple mathematics of how a tour cycle usually pans out – a record comes out, you tour for 18 months, then you go back into the studio – that takes six or seven months and then it's 18 more months of touring.
“I think we have a five-year plan. Then I have another project at the end of that tunnel that might or might not materialise.”
Forge adds: “It's a little bit of a side thing that takes a ton of collaboration and many stars aligning – and that's been in the works for years. So we will see if that happens. But that is as far as I can see right now.”
Last week, Ghost announced a 37-date tour of North America, which will commence at Tulsa’s Cox Business Center Ballroom on October 26 and wrap up at the Barclays Center, Brooklyn, on December 15.
