Thanks to @VinesauceJoel for this masterpiece. Simply beautiful. What an experience on stream. Follow on Twitter here: / jparalove Join our community on Twitch: / jasonparadise --- Thanks as always to my editor Chaotic!
My favorite thing about this album is that it was a mixture of anger and boredom that drove Joel to make this it. IIRC the story was that his internet was out for a full week and his ISP was twiddling their thumbs doing all of nothing. So he just opened Mixcraft and started shitposting to a bad midi of the Ghostbusters theme he had on his hard drive. And it kind of just...well...you can see the insanity it devolved into from there.
I think the thing that makes this meme so funny is how long the bit overstays its welcome. It loops from awful, back to funny, back to awful, like five times
I had to listen to it the whole way through to finally get it in that way. At first it just felt like noise, but it's more of a shaggy dog joke that builds up to that amazing black metal punchline.
Joel's humor was never meant to leak outside of his inner circle of viewers. You were not prepared for his madness. Imagine listening in on him from behind that door. You aren't privy to hearing the song, just the commentary. You would probably consider calling the cops.
So you order a package from the government, it contains a ghost, and you don't immediately put it in a crack pipe and smoke it? Uncultured swine. Hmph.
Someone in chat @ 2:45 asked: "Why did Joel make this"? Well dear chatter, I have the answer right here in my cranium. The reason is that Joel was stuck without internet for a while, and so instead of playing offline games or actually going outside, he decided to edit a midi of Ghostbusters by Ray Parker Jr that he had on his computer, and make the weirdest lyrics imaginable to accompany the remixes just to alleviate his boredom. As you can see by how many there are, he quite enjoyed this. (And his internet was out for a while)
I had absolutely no idea Joel made this - took me 5 minutes of listening to think "This sound like Joel", for me to see the [Vargskelethor] in the title, he is a fuckin blessing
some one wrote an essay on this album because joel himself said it was all connected. i won't do the whole thing but it basically sums up to "Insane Lactose intolerant man blames ghosts for shit"

1/3 of the way through, I can’t believe I’m actually considering watching this whole thing. 2/3 of the way in, why is this actually kinda entertaining Song over, standing ovation
“You smoked the ghost from the government?” is the kind of sentence that you will only hear on JasonParadise streams, maybeson Duolingo, and nowhere else
_the ghostbusters are ill equipped. they only have ghostbusting weapons_ 🎵 "What else would they have!?" absolutely lost it also WHY DID YOU SHIT YOUR PANTS INTO A SOLO
So much food in those songs... But I feel Joel on this, I was not allowed to have internet for more than 2 hours a week... Food was all I could think about...
