Although Ghost formed in 2006, Forge‘s identity as band’s frontman was only confirmed in 2017, following a lawsuit by former band members due to a royalty dispute. Prior to finding success, he was in several other bands including Repugnant and Crashdïet under the stage name Mary Goore.
Personal life
Forge is married to Boel Maria Elizabeth Forge, and is the father of fraternal twins, Morris and Minou. His daughter sings “Ashes”, the opening track to Prequelle. His brother Sebastian, who was thirteen years his senior, had a large influence on Tobias and introduced him to film and music such as Siouxsie and the Banshees, Kim Wilde, Rainbow, Kiss, and Mötley Crüe at a very young age. Sebastian died from heart disease on 12 March 2010, the same day that Ghost released their first demo songs online. Sebastian was also a published author.
