holy shit, this sounds like queen + metallicaso freaking dope, so many bangers
>>128498569most of /mu/ doesnt like Ghost because not le true black metal and i agree its not black metal but who cares, the melody sounds badass and thats what matters.That being said there is better stuff in black metal if you dig well. Just ask in the bm generals here.
What don't people even like about these guys? At the very least their first 2 or 3 albums are old school heavy metal like old Blue Oyster Cult. Even more poppy stuff like Rats and Kiss the Go-Goat are fun songs.
>>128498569r*ddit band
>>128498787Because they saw face paint and assumed extreme metal, even though acts like Kiss and Alice Cooper have been around for decades. The face paint doesn't even look like corpse paint so idk why anyone thought they would be black metal. They are intentionally campy and self aware, and that makes chuds seethe so they hate them. Doesn't help that they're popular.
>>128500714probably because of satanism theme they have going on
>>128500728Plenty of non extreme bands use satanic themes, to me it's the same thing as people hating on the grateful dead cause they saw their name and logo and assumed they would sound different. It's shallow. Their are valid reasons to dislike them but people get hung up on the dumbest shit.
Just found out the other day they are Swedish and went like
>>128498787The fanbase is EXTREMELY cringe. But if you just enjoy the music and ignore the fans they are great
The get more clownish with every new album. Opus eponymous was legit good everything else is trash tho
>>128498569As someone who started listening to the band with Meliora my album ranking goes >1>3>5>6>2>4
>>128499014One of the few cases where this forced meme makes sense.>>128501296They sound exactly like how a swedish "metal" band would sound in 2025: either brutal trve black metal or just some cringe ass, Teletubbie, kiddie ABBA rock band posing as being metal. Literally one of the cringiest bands of all time, Brokencyde tier. Stranger Things "metal".
I'm trusting you guys on this one
>>128498569Scooby doo chase music
>>128498569their singer has the dorkiest voice
>>128502411You all can't be serious
>>128498569it sounds like 90s buttmetal mixed with 2000s pop emo hot topic core gayest shit I ever heard in my life
It's so le edgy to mock Christianity. I heckin' hate God too, you guize.
I honestly don't have any strong feelings here. I do appreciate that they did a Roky Erickson cover though.
>>128501644Yeah, I love the music, but holy lord, the fans make KISS fans look normal.
>>128502424GOATed genre
