The Japanese edition of Ghost B.C.'s new album, Infestissumam, includes a cover of Depeche Mode's "Waiting for the Night," and now that song has hit the web.

The song is characteristic of Ghost B.C.'s cartoonish approach to metal, as singer Papa Emeritus II croons dramatically over an arrangement made up of theatrical guitar crunch and ooky carnival keyboards. It's a tuneful number that's a far cry from the low-key, synth-driven original.
