Sometimes I think we forget just how long Insane Clown Posse and the Dark Carnival have been around and stirring controversy. A Bloglin reader forwarded me this old comic from a 1997 issue of Spin for us… which by the way if you didn’t know, A whole back catalog of Spin magazine are now viewable for free on Google Book. But I digress…

The Family’s always been vilified, long before their innocent pondering about “magnets” to the chaos of this year’s Gathering. I forgot that just a few months after it’s release the Great Milekno was recalled by Hollywood Records (AKA Disney) for inappropriate content. So why don’t you take 10 minutes and enjoy this rather critical (and sometimes scathing) comic by Mike Rubin and Mark Dancey from 13 years ago examining the who, what and whys of ICP’s popularity.

Thanks to Ryan O’Conner for the heads up and trip down memory lane.
