Am I strange?

Probably.

In the nineties I used to love ICP Insane Clown Posse. I remember when I got their CD. One of Adam’s friends Chase asked me if I wanted this CD. It was the Ringmaster. I had never heard of ICP before that. I said sure, the cover looked interesting.

When I was listening, all ICP mostly sang about was killing people. The one song that got me was Mr. Johnson’s Head. The song is about them chopping off a teacher’s head. It’s so dark and strange. However I liked it and I liked most of the other songs as well like Murder Go Around. As soon as I got to listen to the whole CD. I asked mom if we could go to the used CD store to see if they had other albums.

I was hooked and bought most of their music in the nineties. ICP was the second concert I have ever been too. A lot of people wore face paint when I went. I actually went this shy kid from class. I had no idea he liked them. We were like the two shy kids from class listening to people killing other people. Funny.

The concert was awesome and sticky. ICP loves Faygo which is a brand of soda. They sprayed us with soda in the concert. It was a great time. Also what is funny is my mom let me listen to ICP. I know she had to hear them from my room. And that kid from class his name was Ricky his mom let him listen to them as well.

However I know that there songs are purely just for fun. No way would I ever act that out or anything. I hate when people say that music makes people become murders. Only crazy people say that. I turned out fine and I listened to a lot of ICP. But now I no longer listen to ICP. I know they are still around but I have moved on, maybe.

Yeah moved on to other masked bands.

Slipknot. I really like Slipknot. It’s funny because back when Slipknot came out it was ICP versus Slipknot. Either you were an ICP fan or a Slipknot fan not both. So I secretly liked Slipknot in the late nineties. Which now as I think about it, is ridiculous.

I had Slipknot’s first CD and I really liked it. So different from ICP more rockin’. Not really about death but heavy metal. I could really rock out to Slipknot plus I liked and still like the lead’s singers voice Corey Taylor.

If you listen to Slipknot of the late nineties and Slipknot now you can tell Corey Taylor voice change. Meaning he got older. Funny. I hope one day I can see Slipknot in concert that would be awesome.

Ghost B.C. which now just Ghost.

They just changed to Ghost and dropped the B.C. But still hard to find without the B.C. Even their new CD has the B.C. Anyways enough trivia music facts. I heard of Ghost last year and liked one or two songs. But now I can’t stop listening to them. It’s funny because when I heard the band name and heard some of the songs intros without the singing. I thought hard rock. Well they are still hard rock but the lead singer doesn’t sing like a hard rocker. I like his voice though.

This band unlike ICP and Slipknot they keep their identities hidden. The lead singer who is referred to as Papa Emeritus. They are on Papa Emeritus three which I think is funny. Then the band is referred to as the Nameless Ghouls. They wear cloaks and masks. I think the whole thing is fun!

If you are easily offended about religious things you would not like Ghost. They play off the Roman Catholic Church. Papa being like a pope and the Nameless Ghouls as clergy. Sac-religious in their songs and on stage.

Their new album is great which is called Meliora. Ghost is a Swedish band. When they do interviews they wear their outfits and you can tell they have an accent. When the lead singer does an interview he wears a Nameless Ghoul costume but I can tell it’s him just by his voice. Also he speak English better than some of the other Nameless Ghouls.

Ghost just got new masks too. I love their new masks paired to the other ones. Makes them look more devilish.

Thanks a lot Chase you put me on this path to masked bands. Also thank you it’s fun and awesome at the same time.
