We all know the great progressive/tech/death/shoegaze duo Insane Clown Posse over at Psychopathic Records but to jog your memory here is their newest hot single that really asks the questions that people are afraid to confront.
When I pressed play my ears were literally obliterated with their complex song structures and non-traditional vocals. So while they may never get the radio respect they obviously deserve (shout-out to De-triot), they will just keep pushing the boundaries we thought surrounded heavy music. The solo at the end is so incredibly mind altering that I think that maybe Hendrix had come back from the dead to play it. It was that good.
Some of the lyrics are funny, but powerful. "Fucking rainbows after it rains" is funny at first but then reminds you of just how beautiful rainbows are and how the music itself gives a soundscap-y feel that moves you ya know? Violent J says it himself, "And music is magic, pure and clean," Shaggy backs him up, "Pure motherfucking magic"
One point that gives ICP some serious street cred in the music scene (although mostly the music-y types who are obsessed with technical skill since this music seems to fill that niche), is there infamous line regarding their asking the question we all ponder from time to time (especially at church) How do magnets work? What needs to be said about this line has been said, and the philosophy behind it is deeply moving. More importantly is the line after it: "And I don't wanna talk to a scientist Y'all motherfuckers lying, and getting me pissed" which exudes sophistication that draws the listener deeper into this progressive post-metal masterpiece. It gives off that inner city feel of distrust for science that we need nowadays to make sure that robots don't overthrow our society. The use of "Y'all" calls out to all the rural homeboys who walk two or three miles to school everyday, all because of the scientists.
This wont be my last post about post-rock trancecore/doom/goregrind giants ICP. They are "two" good for one post.
