Review: Filmed during GHOST's sold-out performances at Los Angeles' Kia Forum, "Rite Here Rite Now" offers a vivid immersion into the theatrical rock spectacle that propelled Sweden's iconic band to global acclaim. Beyond a mere concert film, the movie intertwines live footage from the band's RE-IMPERATOUR U.S.A. 2023 finale with a narrative storyline drawn from their webisode series. This unique album captured on the night features live renditions of favourites spanning GHOST's discography, alongside the silver screen debut of familiar faces. As Papa Emeritus IV's future hangs in the balance, viewers are transported into the mesmerising realm of GHOST, captivated by both the bombastic spectacle and intimate moments captured on screen.
Review: Filmed over two nights at LA's Kia Forum, boasting Tobias Forge's charismatic stage presence and a setlist dominated by recent hits, this is a great example for how powerful the band is overall. Tracks like 'Kaisarion' and 'Watcher in the Sky' shine, especially with powerful choral backing and the haunting saxophone solo in 'Miasma.' The show balances theatrical spectacle and genuine warmth, with Forge's message of kindness resonating amid the glitz. While the setlist focuses on newer material, omitting earlier cult classics from Opus Eponymous and Infestissumam, Rite Here Rite Now still delivers a full-bodied, exhilarating experience. New track 'The Future Is a Foreign Land' closes the album on a high, blending retro vibes with catchy melodies and reinforcing Ghost's evolution toward melodic accessibility. A perfect blend of their recent material and their talent at performing them live with a great production.
