Again, not the only reason I love them, but yeah definitely. Twiztid appeals to you for their approach, and ICP appeals to me for theirs. Consider who I am. An anti-social, abrasive weirdo with a childish, oddball sense of humor. There aren't many groups that speak to that mentality.

Yeah, the atmosphere of their songs from the 90s or even the 00s haven't been replicated. They are definitely unique and something you can't get anywhere else. But for me, they still say goofy **** that turns me off of it.

I have an ironclad ability to ignore the **** I don't like when there's **** I do like. I could give a **** about their Christian ****, but I still find their approach to their Christian nonsense interesting in much the same way I dig comic books and
Lord of the Rings. Currently listening to "CPK", a song which references killing "***gots", even if it's talking about douchebag preachers and not necessarily actual gay people. If there's one thing that would turn me off to ICP, it's their explicit homophobia, but I can deal with it cause they have the music to make up for it.

I also feel that way about older Twiztid. Like I've said, Freek Show used to be one of my favorite albums but I have a hard time revisiting it because of how cringey the lyrics are. I'm not a fun guy. I hate ****. I am the sad sack that jams Twiztid. They are a level above just about all artists in the genre. Hell, so are ICP when they get songs that I can jam too. I'd take either of them over a Scum.

I'm a sadsack depressive with self-esteem and anger issuesas well, but there are better artists for that catharsis. And I guess at this point I don't much look to music for ceiling gazing anyway. I just like music that clicks with my aesthetic tastes.

You know what else sucks about both? Juggalos. I hate most people but I especially hate most juggalos. I mean, I treat each individual as individuals regardless of what stupid identity label you choose (unless you're a skinhead or something) but there is just a huge amount of annoying ****ing juggalos. It's like, the feud happened, and all the meth head retards went to ICP while all they goofy white boys with vapes and fidget spinners and 420 fitted caps went to Twiztid and I hate them all. For the record, I don't vape, smoke pot and only used a fidget spinner once for it's intended use; too keep my hand busy while rolling hard on ecstacy.

Same. It's why even when I was down with a bunch of juggalos, listening to Psychopathic **** constantly, and going to ICP and Twiztid shows, I still never called myself a juggalo. We're simply not the same people. I'm just an ICP fan and nothing more, even if I'm still a classless cretin with the mentality of a middle schooler.
