Electric Wizard - Ricky Kasso

[@mrdude9074]

That AC/DC shirt is fucking killer tho

[@maggiemolly111]

classic

[@erikakathleen509]

Yeah, we remember that shirt it was a popular one.

[@ChadKing69]

pun

[@billsimms2511]

It was a homemade t shirt that was being sold out of the trunk at a local rock concert.

[@raegan-b6r]

righttt

[@mikeyd7749]

Only about 2 weeks after Kasso's suicide, I wound up at a summer camp out on eastern Long Island with 4 guys who lived in Northport and knew Ricky, Jimmy, and Gary. They said Ricky had been really crazy since he was in middle school and drugs had messed he and Jimmy up real bad!

[@Fortlord-hf8yx]

Yeah he was the acid king

[@rowstone3019]

1984 a sheet of Acid was less than a Hundred bucks. I could travel from show to show. The Satanic Panic with Mayhem and the Church burnings put a target on many of us who liked bands like Venom. It drove the Acid culture deep into the forest to find old abandon buildings to party in. Lots of pretend Satan worshippers.

I went to school with him too. It was more than drugs

The Acid King

[@Casketkrusher_]

I bet Euronymous was pretty inspired by him.

[@mu5iclov3r866]

I could see that being true

[@Sidewalk_Hellscape]

Naw Euronymous was inspired by Venom, bathory, king diamond and the occult alister crowley and anton levay. Plus he was really into Stalinism and he liked pol pot alot.

Found out Teenage Dirtbag by Wheatus was inspired by this case.

[@sirlink9611]

Yeah, the lead singer is from Northport and knew of Ricky Kasso. Obviously he was younger than Ricky and his friends but I'm sure Ricky was one of those kids every town has that everyone seems to have been aware of.

[@BehindTheBush96]

@@sirlink9611 yeah that’s what I meant. He said this happened not far from his house and inspired him to write a song about people judging everyone from their music taste and accusing them of being in satanic cults and potential murderers just cause of the type of music Ricky Kasso listened to.

[@r.d.7274]

I have a DVD-R of "Ricky 6", and I'm still waiting for an official release of it. There is a short film called "MY SWEET SATAN" made by Jim Van Bebber who also starred in it as Kasso. I have that on DVD as an extra to one of of Van Bebber's films.

Respect to his victim for not saying that bullshit. Kept him straight with God.

[@dudefromtexas425]

The sad thing is he actually kept saying no I love my mother

[@BehindTheBush96]

Didn’t make your ‘god’ save him though, did it? Wonder why that is 🙄 Imagine commenting on a story about a kid being murdered just to make it all about your childish religion. Instead of asking “why did my god not protect this kid, if he’s supposedly a benevolent god”, your only comment it “oh well, he’s dead but at least he didn’t say what the killer wanted him to say just to potentially not get killed - that puts ME at ease, since I’m religious and surely everyone must believe in what I believe and my beliefs are proven to be true.” Really, what puts YOU and your religion at ease is what matters most - never mind that a kid was murdered. And if your god punished someone just for saying what a murderer wanted him to say just to try to stay alive, then congrats, you’re an idiot who can’t even tell the difference between worshipping a malevolent god or a benevolent one. Your god is no more benevolent than Satan, if he does that. Especially not since he supposedly gave people free will to use it and then flooded the whole earth and killed every living thing on it just cause they did use it 🤡 JFC, you religious idiots have no self awareness or moral compass whatsoever.

[@WaketheSheeple]

@@BehindTheBush96 easy to talk shit about shit you clearly don’t understand. You honestly think people who actually believe in God think God’s going to swoop down and stop a bullet from hitting their head? Prat is a fitting word for you in this situation. Don’t @ me with your golden calf worshipping bullshit either. You’re not in this race to be real, you’re in it to start baseless shit because you have a God complex. No one cares bro.
