Their ****ing name is Twiztid. That's a ****ing goofy name. You can't call yourseld Twiztid and pretend you're not goofy.
2 things wrong with this.

1. ICP don't see themselves as goofy and tried to claim that 'Miracles' would be praised if it were written by David Bowie. Sadly, as much as you want to see them as dudes that are in on the joke, they take them selves way more seriously than you think.

2. ICP came up with the name Twiztid.

Horrorcore always has a bit of cheese that most of the fans adore. To claim that ICP are more self aware of it thant Twizzler is laughable. Even then, Twizzler compared to most horrocore artists aren't nearly as cheesy. They definitely have goofiness and cheese but aren't nearly as deplorably cringey as you make them out to be. And I still maintain that a lot of their music wouldn't be viewed the way it is if people didn't listen with preconceived notions.

Lucem, you're right, it's silly to talk about what I would or wouldn't do IRL. Glad you brought it up. Maybe you should write an instrumental about it. I recommend a piano paired with a clarinet. With ambient sounds of you hanging from your shower curtain you ****ing failure.

Art Is Dead. Buy My ****.
