Includes liner notes by Violent J.
Detroit cartoon/shock rappers Insane Clown Posse unveil an album that is described as both a "masterpiece" and "ten years in the making." ISP function on a plane with it's own set of rules and boundaries, populated by the underground group's devotees, known endearingly as Juggalos.
After years of bouncing between major and indie labels, ICP continue a record of success that clearly challenges convention, be it with merchandising, comic books, self-produced movies and music. Newcomers to Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope's 'Dark Carnival' get a comprehensive tour on THE WRAITH, beginning with "Welcome To The Show." Saggy The Clown terrorizes children in "Birthday Bitches," while "The Unveiling" revisits the group's apocalyptic musings. THE WRAITH includes a companion DVD disc with live performance footage recorded in 2002.
