Maybe that’s why humans drink the darkness that is coffee.
Eating life energy is what he does. He's "pure". His purpose is above good or evil, he simply is. I don't see Asmodel's 'scream' doing anything to Galactus.
And before someone comes along and says "Well, the Penance Stare worked on Galactus, why wouldn't Asmodel's Scream?", the reason is this:
The Penance Stare works by making you feel the pain that you've caused to others.
Galactus eats inhabited worlds, so he's caused a lot of pain, but, he does not do it to be evil or malicious, it is simply his purpose and what he must do to live. It's like calling a Blue Whale evil for eating Breen Shrimp or Dung Beetles evil for rolling up dung.
Asmodel's scream works on the impure of heart. Galactus is above distinctions like good or evil. What he does is simply his purpose in the balance of the universe.
Penance Stare has nothing to do with good or evil. It makes you feel all the pain you've caused others. Galactus's actions make him kill others, so he feels all of that pain when it's turned on him. It's just what he does to survive.
PS is like a hardcore vegetarian exacting revenge on avid steak fans. They're not necessarily evil, but some vegetarians hate people who kill animals for food. The scream is based on good vs. evil, but Galactus isn't evil, so it wouldn't do anything.

What's your definition of a pure soul then? Jesus, Superman, period? Galactus is basically above good and evil, he simply exists as he knows he has to for everything to exist. He cannot change how he survives, but I can't think of him doing ANYTHING that I would classify as truly evil.
