I don't dislike Necro, but I find his voice off-putting. He just has this monotone delivery that's kind of boring to listen to. And
Death Rap had some truly cringe-worthy moments: having John Tardy from Obituary and Jamie Jasta from Hatebreed sing the choruses to two of the songs was one of the less good ideas I've heard in a long time.
And Twiztid are a hard group to rec. They're definitely a cut above their peers, but they use pretty much the same shtick. But I don't know that I'd call them horrorcore in the way you're looking for. They're more of a wannabe gangsta group with more violent lyrics (at least when they're not referencing juggalos).
Their debut,
Mostasteless, is the least juggalo of their albums, and pretty solid throughout, if you can take their recycled gangsta rap personas. This song right here is actual horrorcore though. It's pretty much a adaptation of
Halloween (as in the movie).
After that they became more watered down as they towed the Psychopathic company line. I haven't listened too much to their
W.I.C.K.E.D. album, but it seems to be more of a straight horrorcore record.
And I definitely wouldn't rec
Freek Show for what you're looking for, but the first song might be close.
They were in a group called House of Krazees before Twiztid, who had a much more horrorcore aesthetic, but they really sounded amatuerish at the time, so I don't know that you'd get anything out of it. The lo-fi production and halloweenish vibe are kind of cool though.
Ultimately, I can't see you becoming a Twiztid fan, but there you go.
