Could you love a Monster Man?
A round-up of some of today's biggest 'Monster Bands'. I mean, just in case you were wondering...
MONSTER MASHERS
By DANICA LO
December 14, 2006 -- LORDI
Sound: Balls-out rock straight from the '80s
Looks: They're from hell
Shtick: Lots of pyro, and Mr. Lordi wears animatronic wings.
MUSHROOMHEAD
Sound: Melodic industrial metal
Looks like: Dead alien dolls with fangs
Shtick: Most critically acclaimed, tend not to decapitate anyone.
SLIPKNOT
Sound: Platinum-selling heavy rap-metal
Looks like: Horror-movie rejects
Shtick: They call their fans maggots.
INSANE CLOWN POSSE
Sound: Rap-metal rage
Looks like: Psycho carnies
Shtick: High-drama live shows featuring chain saws and free-flying soda. ¶ 08:49
