like i said in the youtube thread:

 

i like that icp are legitimately low-brow, rather than intentionally dumbed down. there's a level of honesty to it that you just don't find in other pop music.

 

it's music for society's losers, the ones who know they're fucked, but who choose to embrace it, rather than pretend they're something they're not. these kids didn't necessarily win the socio-genetic lottery, but they can still see through mainstream crap like justin bieber and miley cyrus. for them, icp represents the same things aphex might represent for our particular fringe group.

i'm talking about this:

 

The face of the sixth Joker's Card is "The Wraith"—or simply, Death. The card featured two "exhibits", Shangri-La and Hell's Pit, which would each be given its own album.[52] On November 5, 2002, Insane Clown Posse released their eighth studio album, The Wraith: Shangri-La, where it is revealed that the hidden message of their music was always to follow God and make it to Heaven.[52] Ben Sisario criticizes the series' ending in the Rolling Stone Album Guide, writing "the whole thing was some bland divine plan ... Is this man's final dis of God, or His of us?"[10] Some critics perceived the spiritual element of the storyline as a joke or a stunt. Allmusic writer Bradley Torreano wrote that "Even if it is a joke, it isn't a funny one, or even a clever one."[53] According to Bruce, "We went on an in-store tour right when the sixth Joker Card came out. It was the most moving thing we ever went through in our lives. All across the country, it had such an effect. People would come to the in-stores crying, thanking us. A very, very emotional time. ... Some people might've been upset by that, but through our eyes all we did was touch a lot of people. We definitely wanted it to be something everlasting. Maybe a 19-year-old might not understand or like that ending now. But later, when he has four kids, he might think, 'That was the shit.'"[54]

 

like you, i actually find them and the juggalo thing kinda fascinating though - without ever wanting to hear a minute of their music.

that's exactly what the last track on great milenko was about.

this is not actually a bad track, in the grand scheme of things. the samples remind me of orbital - snivilization.

the science video was as cheesy as icp one. also, mike e clark as said by someone else is a great producer and thus some icp songs are great. As long as you can get passed the vocals if you don't like them.
