      I love my unpronounceable black metal bands and OSDM bands.

      I also loved going to the Volbeat /Ghost concert a few years back. Variety is fun.

        It’s not even disliked, it’s just a running gag that Ghost’s subgenre is “Scooby Doo chase music”

        Because Ghost is not going crazy with solos, screeching/belching/barking lyrics out, isn’t recording their material in some hollowed out and echoed building somewhere. They also aren’t catering to lyrics about how it’d be a wonderful day to be devouring some flesh and fucking the eye sockets of a skull. But you wouldn’t know that with the vocalist doing said belching/barking/screeching lyrics until you read what the song is about.

        So basically, Ghost is not liked because it’s not catering to metal edgelords.

        The downvotes prove me right. :)
