I actually owned this album as a teenager. I loved it back then, but i cant see myself enjoying it now (though i do have to say that Halls of Illusions still holds up). Surprised they didnt discuss the guest musicians who were on the album (Alice Cooper, Steve Jones, and Slash).

["I'm Batman..."]

Awesome!

I've tried several times now, and I just can't enjoy Diamanda. Fortunately, this was more RC's review than hers, so I got through it. I've never cared about ICP, and this review certainly didn't make me feel any different about them.

You know, on paper I wouldn't expect Diamanda and Rap Critic to work so well together yet every time they do a crossover, it's awesome.

Insane Clown Posse is one of those "I enjoy a couple of their songs and that's it" kind of band so it's not like I would have felt very strongly about their opinion on it either way, but I did enjoy the review a lot, they made good points and were pretty funny. I also appreciated the "guys seriously, shut up about the Juggalos already" message at the end.

It's strange. I've never really cared for Rap Critic. I mean, he's okay, seems like a nice guy, but I generally am not that interested in his videos, even if the subject matter is something I'm interested in.

Diamanda I generally dislike. I dislike her solo work, I dislike she occasionally hops into others' work that I actively enjoy. Like, I've groaned before when she's shown up in Spoony's videos, Sage's, Kyle's, and so on.

Yet...I've always enjoyed the team up these two do. Something clicks and something works, even if Diamanda is still a little grating at times. She's far more tolerable, almost enjoyable, in this setting.

Though I do find some humor in her of all mocking & insulting ICP for their face paint.
