At the very least it's evidence that the idea of calling them the worst band ever is just dumb. And yeah that's actually a victory as far as ICP are concerned with most music fans. I'll take what I can get.

Honestly I have two albums to rec Frown when he's ready. One of supreme quality and one that's different enough possibly to interest him. I don't suspect that he'll like them, but I'm curious if he'll at least give a "huh, better than I thought".
I think you've done all of the opinion-softening you could do, mate. They're still 1 star records.
