Phantomime is the fourth extended play by the Swedish rock band Ghost, released on 19 May 2023 by Loma Vista Recordings. It consists of five covers, "See No Evil" by Television, "Jesus He Knows Me" by Genesis, "Hanging Around" by The Stranglers, "Phantom of the Opera" by Iron Maiden and "We Don't Need Another Hero (Thunderdome)" by Tina Turner. The songs, spanning heavy metal, new wave and sub-genres of rock, are covered in Ghost's "classic rock and stadium pop-metal" style. While the band's previous three EPs have mostly covers, Phantomime is their only releases with no original songs. The lead single, "Jesus He Knows Me", released on 9 April 2023, and went to No. 1 on the US Mainstream Rock chart. The second and final single, "Phantom of the Opera", released 16 May. Phantomime released three days later on 19 May, and is the band's highest charting EP, reaching No. 7 on the US Billboard 200, also making the top 10 in Austria, Belgium, Finland, Switzerland and Sweden.
