Remember When Insane Clown Posse Albums were Actually Vinyl Records?
These days it’s not about ICP CDs released through Psychopathic Records, nor is it about the Insane Clown Posse albums released as vinyl records. Today, most Juggalos listen to Insane Clown Posse albums track by track as MP3 files on a computer, iPod, or stream them off the Internet. Is this the best way to experience the newest Insane Clown Posse albums and other material released by Psychopathic Records? Let’s take a look back at the formats Psychopathic Records used to release its music on.
ICP CDs were most popular in the 90s and early 00’s. ICP CDs are high quality and easily transportable (remember the Walkman?), but they don’t hold a candle to the tangibility of the old Insane Clown Posse Albums. When ICP first got its start in the early 90s, Insane Clown Posse Albums were released in the form of vinyl records. Yep, those big, circular, black discs that could only be enjoyed on a turntable. Not in your car, not on your computer, just for the in-home listening experience.
However, while few if any of those attributes sound appealing, vinyl records are experiencing an enormous resurgence in the music format market right now thanks to their audio quality and tangibility. When Psychopathic Records put out Insane Clown Posse albums in the form of vinyl records, not as ICP CDs, Juggalos could read the liner notes, see the artwork right up front, and head the beats in the clearest method available.
Insane Clown Posse albums (and other albums from Psychopathic Records) in this format were and still are the best for collecting, too. It’s OK looking to have a wall of ICP CDs, but much more appealing to have that wall displaying colorful, well-used vinyl Insane Clown Posse albums. Some Juggalos may complain that they have to invest in a turntable to enjoy Insane Clown Posse albums in vinyl format, which is a valid point, but turntables can be purchased for under $ 100 and will play Insane Clown Posse albums for long time if taken care of.
Additionally, the audio quality heard on vinyl is far superior to that heard on ICP CDs. That said, the difference really only matters to audiophiles and super Juggalos who really, really care about the sound.
So what Insane Clown Posse albums does Psychopathic Records make available on vinyl now? Through Hatchetgear.com, not many, which is why these records are such collectors items. At present, you can buy the ICP / Jack white single collaboration on vinyl (won’t be found on any ICP CDs), but the only other vinyl product

11 days ago we made a mad dash out of town to be with family. The following day, my sweet father-in-law, Bob, was admitted to the hospital, and 3 days ago he passed away. If it seems our posts have not been our usual over the past couple of weeks, it’s because our life hasn’t been it’s usual. It’s been hard. Really freaking hard. And confusing and scary and gut wrenching and heart breaking. But I was also told that upon being admitted to the hospital, he was quick to ask the nurses if they’d seen that little girl on CBS earlier in the week … then proudly announced that was HIS granddaughter :) The very next day, Mayhem and I sat in our car in the hospital parking lot decorating paper Christmas trees for his room. And even though she couldn’t go in to visit with him, I’m thankful for the magic of technology that allowed her to be able to FaceTime with him one last time and show him that she was taking excellent care of his dog. The past couple of weeks have been especially brutal on my husband, his mother and his sister. So if you have a prayer, healing thought or good vibe to spare, I’d ask you to send one their way. We’ve got a long road ahead of us to heal from such an incredible and unexpected loss, but we know that smiling and laughing are big keys to our own healing and he’d want us to do as much of that as possible. Thanks for all the love you send our way – you have no idea how many of your comments and emails over the past two weeks have given me the strength I needed (especially on Mayhem’s birthday!) We’re so grateful for you!!!
