Ghost have offered up a new version of IMPERA track “Spillways” featuring guest vocals from Def Leppard singer Joe Elliott.

An avowed Ghost fan, Elliott cites “Spillways” as his choice cut from the LP. Meanwhile, Ghost mastermind Tobias Forge has previously credited Def Leppard as an influence. A collab only made sense, and Elliott sounds right at home on the pop metal track.

Impera was my favorite rock album of 2022,” Elliott said via a press release. “I found out along the way that Tobias is a bit of a fan of DL, so I guess it was inevitable we’d both find out about each other! Once we’d been introduced to the idea of working together it just snowballed organically and I’m thrilled that I got to sing on what is my favorite song from that album!”

Elliott also appears in the latest installment of Ghost’s webisode series. While drinking a Guinness in a pub in Dublin, the veteran singer is propositioned to sing karaoke. When he chooses “Spillways,” he’s temporarily transported into the song’s music video before returning to the pub with a 7″ vinyl single of the new version of the song. “Fuck yeah!” he declares as the audience lets out a round of applause.
