Im kinda from the school of thought that says any music that is completely heavy without any hint of irony or subtlety cannot really be effective. Bad Moon rising isnt a heavy sounding album but theres a load of weird, hammer horror style undertones, as much from the artwork as anything else.
Its like Big Black or the Manic Street Preachers, you need that level of Ridiculousness to make you laugh the obvious heaviness of the music off and get to the more disturbing/weird aspects of the lyrics or performance.
