They've put out a TON of music for us to digest. There are almost too many ICP songs to even count. It would take a long time to listen to them all in one sitting.
Besides the original six Joker Cards, there are tons of mini albums and unreleased stuff, and now we have the later Joker Card decks.
How's the album?
Anyway, I was skeptical to listen to Yum Yum's Lure because I haven't been keeping up with ICP that much the last couple of years.
I just needed a break from them
But I decided to dive in and give this a listen. It's apparently a bunch of leftover tracks from the upcoming Joker Card "Yum Yum Bedlam".
Classic ICP
One first listen, this has the elements of a classic ICP album. The intro track is awesome for one. And the songs have that classic ICP feel...well, most of them.
The beats are superb on most of these tracks. Really gave me the ICP feeling. Some of their albums after the original six were not to my taste.
That clowny feel that we all know and love
The lyrics are pretty awesome too, I love the concepts of some songs...especially Ding Ding Doll, and Smell of Rain...those are two of my favorites.
ICP has depth to their music
That's what I love about ICP, they tell a story in each of their songs. And they do it so well. This album is pretty fresh...I listened to most of it so far, and I'm pleasantly surprised.
It really brings back some of those classic feels of the ICP I know and love.
I'm excited about the next cards, for sure.
A lot of people say they can't get into newer ICP stuff, but this sounds like some of their earlier stuff...I love it, it's honestly pretty good.
Final thoughts
Even though I don't listen to ICP that much anymore, I still get in moods where I want to listen to their music. So I will go to YouTube and pull up one of their albums and give it a listen.
Check this one out, guys.
