My favorite metal band is Ghost

Don't ratio me

[–] criss_cross@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I love my unpronounceable black metal bands and OSDM bands.

I also loved going to the Volbeat /Ghost concert a few years back. Variety is fun.

Hol' up. Volbeat is playing concerts with their one single song?

That's the one! Just gotta stretch those vocals out for a second or ten...

[–] SinningStromgald@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (5 children)

Love Ghost! Not my favorite, which is probably Gloryhammer, but still top five.

Why is iGhost disliked by metal fans?

[–] Leviathan@fedinsfw.app 6 points 1 day ago

You can like what you like, I just don't think Ghost is Metal.

[–] kettuli@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It’s hardly even metal if you look at it from atop some grindcore mountain.

[–] decolo@piefed.social 3 points 1 day ago

Let's be real, its pop rock, but that doesn't make it less fun to listen to

[–] Aqarius@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

It's not even disliked, it's just a running gag that Ghost's subgenre is "Scooby Doo chase music"

[–] Toasticus@piefed.social -5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (4 children)

Because Ghost is not going crazy with solos, screeching/belching/barking lyrics out, isn't recording their material in some hollowed out and echoed building somewhere. They also aren't catering to lyrics about how it'd be a wonderful day to be devouring some flesh and fucking the eye sockets of a skull. But you wouldn't know that with the vocalist doing said belching/barking/screeching lyrics until you read what the song is about.

So basically, Ghost is not liked because it's not catering to metal edgelords.

The downvotes prove me right. :)

That’s as bad a take as the genre elitists.

FELLOW ÜLGINAUGHT REPORTING INWARD AND OUTWARD

/weird salute thing with my balls

[–] Sp00kyB00k@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

I like it when people like music. Don't care what it is.

Personally, I am a metalcore, deathcore kind of person. But to each their own.

[–] Lodespawn@aussie.zone 7 points 1 day ago

They just look like sad Kiss fans ..

and they're right to do so

[–] inari@piefed.zip 2 points 1 day ago
