Album Rating: 2.5
Mr. Bungle and Primus are good, too bad they have no relevance in a thread about a posse of insane clowns.
This argument is moot, as you listen to better music than everyone, so there's really nothing to argue. ICP rules, obviously.

[quote="bustyagunz"]the only song ive heard by these guys was that homies song, and it made me want to kill myself. [/quote]
The song is called "JUGGALO Homies". Obviously it wasn't made for you!
Then again, every person I've played the song to loves it, even people who think ICP is the worst thing to happen to music. Maybe you are the problem, not the song.
[quote="Cocaine"]The last thing we need are a bunch of juggalos on our site who only write about ICP[/quote]
I wrote two Oingo Boingo reviews, an Esham review and a Soopa Villainz review.

That was HILARIOUS. They bought time on a station that never plays their music to mock MTV and mainstream media. Way brilliant!This Message Edited On 08.29.08

OK, Mr. Bungle are amazing, and Primus has Les Claypool, which is a very good bass guitarist. About ICP, their lyrics don't make me laugh one single bit, maybe if I was born in a ghetto It would have been really funny when I was like 11 years old.
The lyrics that ICP write are incredibly mediocre. And don't get me started on those awful pseudo-horror beats!
Now, it's a fact that ICP are smart guys, they nailed a formula to reach the heart of every white trash kid who's boring lifestyle leads them to dress like clowns and follow an idiotic trend, and for that they have made lots of $$$... what a shame =(

In my opinion, they succeed at what they do. I'd rather listen to Mr. Bungle and Primus than the crap MTV is trying to shove down my throat.
don't you fucking dare compare Mr. Bungle to ICP.

ICP are the most mainstream "underground" thing on the planet to be honest. The term underground should only be reserved for things that are only appreciated by a select audience due to an exceptionally unique artistic vision that's not widely known or appreciated. ICP is just mindless and they try way to hard to be "out there"

I'm Puerto-Rican.
Anybody Killa, a rapper on the group's label who is also a juggalo, is Native-American. The R.O.C., the hype man for Blaze Ya Dead Homie, is African-American (Blaze is Caucasian). None of these dress like white trash. No one I know dresses like "white trash". I am certainly not white trash, not being white.
ICP fans come from wide backgrounds. Calling the entirety of a musician's fanbase "white trash" is incredibly ignorant and rude.
don't you ****ing dare compare Mr. Bungle to ICP.
ICP are like Mr. Bungle

You're a metalhead. You've said yourself that the only rap group you enjoy is Cypress Hill.
ICP's lyrics are not mediocre. In my opinion, they succeed at writing comedy raps that are funny and horror raps that are scary.

So, because you, personally, do not like them, they are not underground?
ICP are only appreciated by a select audience because of their unique vision and are not widely known or appreciated. That's underground to a T.This Message Edited On 08.30.08

No, I dislike many things that I consider to be underground. Things that are underground would be things like Hella, Tera Melos, Bomb The Music Industry!, and things like that. ICP are insanely popular, and therefore cannot be underground. Just because you don't get MTV airplay doesn't mean you are underground. If that's the case then bands like Anberlin and Protest The Hero would be underground...

ICP are popular within a limited fanbase.
Mainstream bands like Disturbed, Slipknot and Korn have millions of fans because they intentionally produce music to appeal to these audiences and have had resources given to them by being signed to major labels who want to promote them as much as they want to be promoted.
ICP, on the other hand, intentionally want to stay under the radar. The Amazing Jeckel Brothers is their only mainstream album. None of their albums have sold in the top 10. They are not mainstream.

Tell that to the thousands upon thousands of trailer park children who own nothing but ICP shirts and Tripp pants...
And, if they really wanted to stay under the radar, would they have payed good money for a commercial on MTV about being unpopular?This Message Edited On 08.30.08

exactly.
And there is no fucking comparsion between ICP and Mr. Bungle. Mr. Bungle is franticly paced insane music that makes me have an orgasm every time I hear it, whereas ICP try to be evil, yet ironically funny clowns that come off as offensive and weak.

It was a JOKE. And it was brilliant!
It's the very thing I could have seen Mr. Bungle or Frank Zappa doing.
And cool it with that trailer park shit, redneck. I'm an easy going guy, but I can get pretty fucking fierce if someone pushed me enough. You DON'T want a broken bottle in your eye.This Message Edited On 08.30.08

I love how Faggy 2 Dope was claiming how underground ICP was whilst showing off a platinum record on the wall.
|
| |
In fact, Frank Zappa DID do something like this! Back in the 1980s, he did a commercial for an energy company where he that the company paid him to promoting their product and that he was refusing to do so!
|
| |
Wow. How ironic that the Blink-182 and My Chemical Romance-loving emo is gay-bashing!

I'm an easy going guy, but I can get pretty ****ing fierce if someone pushed me enough. You DON'T want a broken bottle in your eye.
:lol:

Wow so they make computer's that can transfer broken bottles now? Sweet, I must look into this. Also, I'm pretty sure my statement can be statistically proven. I'm pretty sure that is their target audience, much the same way the target audience for house music consists of people who do ecstasy, and punk rock was targeted at the masses of disaffected youth who were against the establishment...
