maybe i'm just not up on detroit music but his voice sounded southern and some of the drums reminded me of southern club ****. you might have a point though i always forget that detroit has something to do with house music or whatever. what an all around ****hole that city is.

It's not a shithole in terms of music. A hell of a lot of good stuff has come out of there over the years.

And it's techno that's from Detroit. House is from Chicago.

I'm pretty sure most of us Aesop Fans like his early stuff and his new stuff. You can def tell the difference but I've enjoyed Aesop ever since I first heard Daylight and No Regrets, in '04.

My opinion on ICP being laughably bad, has not changed since I first heard them in 98. I have tried, and tried to find anything I like from them, but NOTHING has succeeded in winning me over, every damn song, and I just want to mail them a dictionary. I am sorry to anyone on this forum that listens to ICP, I'm not dissing you for listening to them, but I am dissing ICP. They're just not good, not even decent. They're the kind of group that make me want to go deaf.

Sometimes people just love the way things sound. I've been a huge fan of Mindless Self Indulgence and it's not because of their amazing lyrics.

I think a lot of ICP fans are drawn to the whole production not just the music.

He was in Smash Mouth, but that just wasn't selling as much.

I understand the sound part, production, the appeal of that and so forth. But is that all? It makes it sound like ICP and their music is nothing but two obnoxious guys that like to talk about one another's dick, your usual ego driven nonsense. Maybe there's some deeper meaning in their lyrics that just fails to click in my brain, but then again, I've long made up my mind that those two guys just write about nothing, and play it off as something. I will say till the day I die, that they're laughably bad.
