Thought we would only have 1 episode for this year's Halloween? Think again! For our last episode for halloween 2020, we will be talking about one of our all-time favorite bands, Ghost, and the impact that they have had on rock music in the 2010's. In this day-in-age, it is difficult to get people's attention like the way that Ghost has done in the last 10 years. Because of this, we will be discussing their origins, who they are, what makes them unique, and predictions about what they have in store for us for this decade. What do you think about Ghost? Do you like them? Do you dislike them? Have they had an impact on you? Where do you put them in regards to 2010's rock music? We hope that you enjoy this installment of Punch Me In and we will be looking forward to seeing you in the next episode. Edited by Matt Proctor
