According to loudersound.com, Ghost mastermind Tobias Forge has resurrected his early-2000s death metal band Repugnant and released their first new song in 20 years. Forge has contributed to a brand new video for Repugnant’s 2004 song Premature Burial to V/H/S Mixtape, which is the latest installment in long-running horror anthology V/H/S. While Tobias  sang on the original, this new version features Watain’s Erik Danielsson on vocals.

Also appearing on the song are bassist Gustaf Lindström, drummer Thomas Daun and guitarist Gottfrid Åhman, all of whom played in previous incarnations of Repugnant (Lindström also played in an early incarnation of Ghost). Forge formed Repugnant in 1998, releasing a series of singles and EPs before they split in 2004. A posthumous album, Epitome Of Darkness, was released in 2006 and the singer briefly put a new version of Repugnant together in the early 2010s, but abandoned it once more to focus on Ghost.

“I don’t know if we were good enough or whatever,” Tobias later told Loudwire of Repugnant. “Now, knowing a lot of the things that is required, how many stars that need to align and all the decisions you have to make, I can definitely look back on myself as a 21-year-old and quickly see why I didn’t achieve that with Repugnant. I wasn’t mature. I wasn’t thinking. I wasn’t there yet.”
