The hook is almost non-existent but it really isn’t needed here.
The verses flow with the beat and it adds to the hard hitting nature. 3.7/5Įxplosions- Another trap heavy beat backs this one. The hook is much more rock but that is a nice change of pace here. Very deep and thought provoking lyrics ask a lot of questions and that works here. How- A slower beat backed again by piano. The hook is simple and sung and it works. The tone of the track is much more introspective but keeps with the darker tone of the album. Violent J has described this song as his representation of turning 40 and the toll it takes on someone. 4.3/5įalling Apart- A bass heavy beat backed by a simple guitar and piano riff. The verses speak of people who are self absorbed and really embody the negatives of society. The intro is a discussion with Satan and that gives way to a bass heavy and disjointed beat. Vomit- One of the first singles fans heard from this album. The hook pays direct homage to the previous song and that is a nice throwback. The verse talks of the racism behind the confederate flag and what they really think of that movement. 4.5/5Ĭonfederate Flag- A song very similar in content to “Fuck Your Rebel Flag” but the beat and music are super wicked and that adds another dimension to this one. The verses are simple also but the theme of the song is great. The hook is super simple but is hella dope. Shock- A unique beat grabs the listener’s attention immediately. This track embraces the dark sound that sets the tone for the album. The hook is simple and repetitive but that isn’t a bad thing. 4.2/5Īpocalypse- A very trap heavy beat that is like nothing they have tried before. Shaggy hits the last verse hard while rapping around the beat here. The hook is simple and more melodic and is a nice foil to the verses. Violent J raps slow and methodical in time with the beat. Lost- This track has a very heavy and hard hitting beat that reminds listeners of “Hells Pit”. This harkens back to the jokers card theme and presents the direction for the album. Does this album continue the legacy that is the Insane Clown Posse? Or will the message behind it be “Lost”? It once again touches on dark and not so nice topics that most people try to avoid. The first of a two part story (The second to be released July 28, 2015) this release touches on those who have lost the “link” to that faith. The latest release “The Marvelous Missing Link (Lost)” once again touches on the topic. At the end of the first “Era” of jokers cards fans and skeptics found out the message behind the music was one of finding faith and trusting in a higher power. They have pushed a positive message masked behind wicked lyrics and left many on the outside in shock at times. No matter what direction they have gone the millions and millions of fans followed almost religiously. They have managed to keep a ravenous fan base enthralled in every move they make. Although they themselves have rarely been accepted by modern society, they created a home for the “lost” and made everyone feel welcome. They created a movement for those society rejects. Since 1992 the Insane Clown Posse has done what no other Underground label has been able to do.
