Free Music Review: Time for the Juggalo Show
Hit: 5 Stars
Easily the Juggalo favorite! And as it should be. The Riddle Box mixes horror clown edge with a** shaking beats, making a person dance while snickering in disgust. It's bouncy rhythms and nursery rhyme lyrics call to mind it's Cyprus Hill influence but this is not a bad thing. In fact it seems a perfect fit for ICP. Enough, that it takes their sound to a (over used expression ahead) new level. The downbeat tone that started on the "Ringmaster" is still here but it doesn't hesitate to give way to a more fun and smiling level of sadism. With the cringe inducing but goofy indulgences taken in the lyrics, producer Mike Clark perfectly parallels it with side splitting cartoonish embellishments. So ICP's descriptive lyrics, vividly revel in its own jolly carnage. Songs like "Toy Box", "Ol' Evil Eye", and "3 Rings" are fully immersed into ICP's dark carnival spirit of macabre storytelling. While "Cemetery Girl," "Jokers Wild" and "Headless Boogie" testify for their hammy necro-disgusto cred. ICP never seemed happier, bragging about the clown life and the listener is along for the gleefully perverse ride. Even two semi hits rear their heads with the demanding sing along style of "Chicken Huntin" and the bong hitting beats of "Dead Body Man". Too bad for J and Shaggy that Jive records chose not to give "Riddle Box" a national push when they had the chance because it is ICP's most accessible and shocking release. Notorious but successfully sound ingredients for a hit. If you were around for, and bought into the "Milenko" hype, this release deserves your attention. Unlike ICP's more recent releases, you'll be happy you did!Free Music Review: ThE JoKes On YoU HeHe RIDDLE BOX

Free Music Review: You Have Opened... The Riddle Box
Hit: 5 Stars
While not the best Joker's Card, this album is highly entertaining - like all Joker's Cards.
ICP thought they'd be making an awesome deal signing with Jive Records, they thought they'd give them national promotion, they thought they'd be known in the entire US by releasing the third Joker's Card, The Riddle Box, with Jive, but that didn't happen. Jive released the record, all right, but only where ICP already had a big fanbase, where they knew the CD was going to sell. And they didn't even release the record as Jive Records. They've created something like a fake label called Battery Records just to release the CD, as if they were ashamed to work with ICP or something like that. ICP got mad when they knew about this, but there was nothing they could do except show them that they'd be able to sell it in other places, without their help, and so they did. This album sold a lot for an independent album. (...) It sold well because it's incredibly funny and creative. Songs like Cemitery Girl, Dead Body Man, Chicken Huntin', Toy Box and Lil' Somthin' Somthin' shows everyone this band is very singular and very creative, that's why it has so many fans - Juggalos - like us. It's not like we were born enjoying it... That's it, y'all.. Much clown love.
