Limited edition for Schwarzer Freitag Record Store Day 2018! Only 1 per customer!

ON VINYL FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER!
PRESSED ON RED VINYL WITH VARIANT COVERS OF EACH JECKEL BROTHER!
Horrorcore hip-hop veterans Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope of Insane Clown Posse have never been one to avoid controversy for the sake of their craft. The
release of their 1997 album The Great Milenko proved that, when the album's label, Disney-owned Hollywood Records, removed the album from shelves
mere hours after its release to appease complaints by the Southern Baptist Church. This controversy only served to propel the Detroit duo's profile higher,
as numerous labels lined up to court them. By 1998 Insane Clown Posse had settled into Island Records, and The Great Milenko had sold over one million
copies, setting the stage for their next record.
The Amazing Jeckel Brothers was released in 1999, was the fifth entry into their "Joker's Cards" anthology of albums, and featured 17 tracks touching on
themes of anger, morality, and sin, heavily inspired by the negative press the group has received from the Hollywood Records debacle. Like Milenko, the
album featured production from their frequent collaborator DJ Mike E. Clark, but Jeckel Brothers set itself apart with its sound, heavily indebted to classic
90s rap, as opposed to Milenko's hard rock-influence, featuring key contributions from legends of hip-hop like Ol' Dirty Bastard and Snoop Dogg, from fellow
horrorcore icons Twiztid, ska-revival band Gangsta Fun, and even prank call comedians The Jerky Boys.
Despite receiving a thrashing from critics, Insane Clown Posse defied the press it received, when The Amazing Jeckel Brothers debuted at #4 on the Billboard
200 charts, and ultimately reached platinum status in 2008.
In celebration of this landmark album, Insane Clown Posse's own Psychopathic Records now presents this special reissue of The Amazing Jeckel Brothers.
Not just on vinyl for the very first time, but pressed on transparent red wax, and housed in two variant covers featuring each of the two iconic Jeckel Brothers
from the original artwork.

Another friday dedicated to the black gold!
