Ghost

Post by spawnofthesith »

This band fucking sucks beyond all reason. Pure and utter dog shite hiding under a gimmick that even an 8 year old would think is retarded. And yet somehow, they continue to blow up in popularity. What does GAB think of this shit sandwich of a band?



I mean, wtf kind of a band sells buttplug merch? :freak:

They're entertaining in small doses. And I found the buttplug thing hilarious in a retarded sort of way.

Yes :o I can't seem to go to any forum or on FB without seeing at least a few comments about how amazing this band is. Completely baffling :freak: And I find the Blue Oyster Cult comparisons I see all the time insulting as well :lol:

this.


that being sad, i admittedly had the kiss reaction when i saw them: "oh shit these guys are going to sound truly evil, just look at em! .....oh" but i dont dislike what they do, necessarilly, though some of their new shit is not as good as many claim.

THAT being said, more fucking power to them. :idk:

They sound Mercyful Fate playing elevator music. I love Mercyful Fate but just can't get into Ghost. With that being said I would rather listen to them that most of the crap they call music today. But hey they are living the dream and if they can make some $$ at it good for them.

They're pretty much the only thing one of the guys in my band listens to. He tries to get me to listen every time I'm at his place or in his car. Apparently me saying "I don't like this band" doesn't get remembered.

They're not terrible, but I'm sick of getting them pushed on me all the time.

Finally gave them a listen. Cant deal with the high pitched vocals. VERY irritating.

I have tried so hard to like them, but to no avail... I guess the gimmick is cool, but gimmicks all get old unless theres SOMETHING cool behind it, just look at ICP :D
