In this video footage of a live performance of the horrorcore band CORPSE CIRCUS, we hear the Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti song "Fright Night" being utilized as a sample. The band sings along with Ariel's pop vibes, and eventually departs 2 touch on horrorcore themes like killing ppl, having sex with dead bodies, and other dark, violent images.
This begs the question(s)...
Has Ariel Pink 'gone horrorcore'?
Did he license this song in order 2 reach juggalo audiences?
Is Ariel 'getting dark'?
Can CORPSE CIRCUS break thru 2 the indiesphere?
Is this a buzzband we should all know abt?
Now that horrorcore rapper Tyler the Creator has broken into the indiesphere, maybe more horrorcore acts will follow. Maybe Bon Iver was a lil bit 'too lite' for some indie fans who are raging against the 9.5.
Sorta got dark listening 2 this song "CHOPPIN U UP", which tells the story of chopping up ur bod! I think it is a metaphor 4 life, and haterz.
Thinking abt gaining 100 lbs. and buying an XXL, sleeveless CORPSE CIRCUS t-shirt.
Should I start a digital agency that curates sponsored, premium content 4 juggalos by juggalos?
R u vibing to this new sample-based Horrorcore group?
Has Ariel Pink 'broken thru'?
Will we hear Ariel's darkest lyrics since "Menopause Man"?
R u getting in2 lofi horrorcore?
Is lo-rrorcore the next relevant indie genre?
Will Ariel Pink 'headline' at the Gathering of the Juggalos?
I have heard many stories about how music inspires people to perform terrible things. During my time on Earth, I have watched how entire subcultures and social groups can rally around aesthetically unified music. So many kinds of music 4 so many kinds of ppl who have different life goals. I have also read tons of 'hard-hitting' articles about how certain musical genres are bad for society/inspire terrible people to perform terrible things.
Have u heard of horrorcore? It seems like it is probably a 'bad thing' that I am first hearing about it because some horrorcore bro just murdered 4 people; there is a 0% chance that I will like the music, unless I enjoyed murdering people.
This bro is a horrorcore rapper named Syko Sam. People in 'the real world' know him by his birthname "Richard Samuel McCroskey." Based on an article I read on the CNN news source, he apparently killed 4 people.
CNN: Richard Samuel McCroskey III -- a 20-year-old rapper in the underground genre of "Horrorcore" who sang of chopping people into pieces -- has been arrested in connection with the slayings. The crime scene was so horrifying police would not even describe it, saying only that the victims died of blunt force trauma.
I had never heard of the Horrorcore genre, so I had to go to the wikipedia to find out what it was: "Horrorcore defines the style of hip hop music that focuses around horror-influenced topics that include Satanism, cannibalism, suicide, murder and rape." It seems to make sense that this bro 'murdered some1' based on his affinity towards that genre of music. It's like we all have a self-concept, and we can use music to reinforce our perspective of the world. Just want to feel 'normal'/like some1 'gets' me and my problems. (Are musicians role models?)
Horrorcore seems like a very unchill genre. Like only 'very stupid people' would listen to that. People who 'did not fit in' and never really had a brain that developed after they turned 11 years old. It seems like if you went to public high school, horror-core fans were the people who were the highest on the 'I think 1 day this person will shoot up our school' list. You sort of just hoped that they were 'too dumb' to plan out some sort of massacre, or that they turned to a life of drug abuse that crippled any sort of massive undertaking beyond 'getting a job at Taco Bell.'
CNN: McCroskey is a young man with no criminal record who took delight in the blend of horror hip-hop that celebrated macabre killings. He went by the name Syko Sam. In one YouTube video, he holds a hatchet and sings about killing people and putting their remains in black bags: "Last night I was the murderous rage. Now, I gotta get rid of the bodies before the corpses start to get to rotting."
Just listened to a Syko Sam song called 'Murderous Rage.' Seems like a good title, based on the lyrical content.
The song seems to be 'dark', describing the act of murdering of some ppl, then the always difficult process of hiding their corpses and trying not 2 get caught. Feeling very troubled about Richard McCroskey's existence. Starting to get the feeling that there are tons of Syko Sams out there, all with some sort of repressed hate of the world, eager to kill people since it is the only outlet of their feelings that they will ever be capable of enacting.
Listened to some other song by Syko Sam (Honestly think that he believes 'psycho' is spelled 'syko' [via failed standardized testing]). The song sorta sounds like some Eminem song since it is about 'every1 in the world sucking' and killing ppl. I feel like most human beings 'wish that other people would understand them' and their request is probably reasonable since most humans are generally the same, but I feel like these cries for understanding/empathy are 'completely retarded.' Probably 'subhuman' cries for attention, since they are not yearning to be in touch with humanity.
Now that I have heard these horrorcore songs, I feel like I can understand Eminem as an artist + his appeal + his contribution to society. He is sorta like mainstream horrorcore bro, and sort of 'softens' his brand by dissing pop culture a lot instead of rapping about hate and murder.
These horrorcore songs really make me 'feel ill', I think. It is the opposite of chillwave music. I remember when 'cop killer rap' was destroying society, but it seems like some African Americans might have a reason to resent cops/the white man. I am not sure if Horrorcore bros deserve to feel the way that they feel. I think that they seriously are the bros who 'cannot distinguish between reality and Grand Theft Auto.' I even find the Dirty Projectors to be insanely more listenable than Horrorcore.
From what I have read, HORRORCORE BROS are actually known as JUGGALOS. They seem to take pride in being 'misfits', wearing baggy pants, painting their faces to look like clowns who are insane, and sculpting their hair with gel. Recently, juggalos have become an internet meme, since they are white trash with a LOLable brand. I think that juggalos are not just whites, but any colour--the only requirement of their clan is that u 'feel like no1 gets u' in a dark way. I feel like no1 'gets' me, but I still don't want to be a juggalo.
You can see that Syko Sam is a Juggalo/horrorcore bro. He is dressed in black, has a frumpy figure, and gels his bangs into lil spikes. Most of these bros wear 'baggy ass' clothing cuz they come from a broken home and have only eaten fast food their entire lives'.
There are even female juggalos. Check out this 'freakie ass bitch'
I think there is a 'natural order' that establishes where we will fit into a particular social group. I think that juggalos are 'seriously at the very bottom' of the social totem pole. Like you genuinely have to be born into the perfect storm of tragedies to become a juggalo.
I feel sad that I wasn't able to go to the 'Gathering of the Juggalos.' It is apparently the #1 gathering of 'the most misunderstood people on Earth.'
This photograph was probably taken at a horrorcore performance where a heavy set 34 year old man rapped about having sex with dead bodies.
I feel very troubled by this 'subculture.' I feel 0% of juggalos have a college degree, or even an associates degree.
Even some krappy local news man 'interviewed' a horrorcore juggalo after the Horrorcore murders. It seems like the horrorcore bro is trying 2 say 'just cuz we sing descriptive tales about wanting 2 kill ppl, it doesn't mean we would actually murder people.' Fortunately, he wore a sweet mask for the interview.
I am overwhelmed by these horrorcore bros. Seriously feel 'ill' after reading about Syko Sam. About to throw up after looking at Juggalo content. I feel like I just wiped my ass, and examined my feces on the toilet paper, and noticed some sort of Gathering of Juggalos on my skid mark, then looked into the toilet, and saw that my log of feces consisted of juggalos. It's kinda weird how there are so many 'dangerous ideas' floating around in 'smart people circles', but it seems like no1 wants to do anything about this 'dangerous way of life' celebrated by volatile second class citizens. We must find a way to 'go horrorcore' on horrorcore.
The mind of Syko Sam
Seems like an unchill place
where I don't want to visit
like he is probably a bro who pleasures himself
while thinking of murdering people
We must put an end to horrorcore
Barry Obama must do something
To eliminate this subculture so that uneducated people
don't have this dangerous outlet
where acts of cannibalism, rape, and beastiality are trivialized
and turned into ghey rap songs with an Eminemy voice.
Feel very worried about the interests of society's 'afterthoughts'
I realize that we all can't be gifted and talented
but we must monitor the 'less-privileged'
Sorta would make me 'relieved' if my son/daughter was into the Jonas Brothers+HannyMontanny
instead of music abt killing ppl and fucking them/eating them
We must take a stand against horrorcore.
The Earth must be cleansed of Juggalos. Since we are smarter than them, we must create a new trend/fad/cultural movement that they can identify with that isn't so dark. U srsly can't trust stupid people with dangerous ideas because they 'take them seriously' and end up being more 'effed up' than they have 2 b. Would rather have my son/daughter turn out 'a little bit ghetto' and just turn into a 'hardworking person' after prematurely having a kid instead of compensating for their 'lack of a place in the world' by succumbing to the juggalo way.
When he was being led to jail, McCroskey told reporters, "Jesus told me to do it."
[Horrorcore Killings]
'The world would be a better place if every1 appreciated indie music because it truly is the best music on the planet. It is a healthy form of expression, celebrating ideas and themes the right way. Indie music will save the world.'
- Carles, 2009
Let's be honest, we've all known that Jack White is white trash for a really long time. He's not exactly as white trash as Kid Rock, but his gimmick is still right up the same alley. He plays guitar riffs that you think are so authentic that you'd hear them in a local KKK-wave bar, except they are so good that they become 'critically acclaimed.' Anyways, Jack White is also known for working with tons of random ass artists, probably because he is addicted 2 fame and secretly wants to go more mainstream than he already is.
He collab-ed with those garbage juggalos in the Insane Clown Posse. I understand if u collab with a rapper to break into 'black markets', and maybe if you play a riff behind some Shakira/Ricky Martin/Enrique Iglesias to go after a booming Latin population, but why would u go after white trash Middle America? Every1 knows that juggalos come from the DNA-vibes that exist in poo, so not sure why he is saying "I'd rather play the Gathering of the Juggalos instead of Coachella."
Really a terrible career move 4 Jack White. His fans who think they are 'authentic' bc they vibe 2 his guitar rock are definitely going 2 turn their backs on him bc he is associating with this trash. The Insane Clown Posse are known 4 singing abt killing women and raping their dead bodies then pouring Faygo on them. Not a very authentic indie career move 4 Jack White.
Does this collab seem 'totally authentic?
Is Jack White 'trying 2 be meta'?
Or is he just embracing his white trashiness?
Has Jack White 'lost his indie cred' now that he is 'down with the clown'?
Is this 's00 funnie'!
Is Jack White a 'collab whore'?
Will he 'do anything 4 a meme'?
Do u want to break in2 juggalo markets?
Are juggalos 'sub-human'?
Has Jack White been 'over' since that 1 song that was like dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dunnn-dunnnnn?
I remember a long time ago, a horrorcore rapper killed an entire family just because he listened to lyrics that celebrated killing people, chopping them up, and having sex with their dead bodies. I even penned a long opinion piece that inspired 'tons of hate' from the juggalo community [link].
Anyways, this crazy juggalo horrorcore rapper killed named Syko Sam an entire family some time last year. Justice has finally 'prevailed' and he is gonna get life in prison. Relieved he is 'off the streets' and won't be able to harm any non-juggalo humans any more. Do u think he will meet some juggalos in prison, and they will start a buzzband in prison?
According to a report in the Richmond Times-Dispatch, Richard Samuel Alden McCroskey III has pleaded guilty in the deaths of four people in the Farmville murders last year. He pleaded on two counts of first degree murder and two counts of capital murder.
As a part of a plea agreement, he was sentenced to life in prison for the murders of a Longwood University Professor, Debra S Kelley, her husband, a church pastor, Mark Niederbrock, their daughter, Emma, who was 16 and her 18 year old friend Melanie Wells, who was from West Virginia.
Have yall listened to any Syko Sam on ur iPod lately?
If I start a horrorcore act, do i have a good chance of being 'almost murdered' at the Gathering of the Juggalos [via Tila Tequila]?
Remind me not 2 invite any juggalo rappers who I met on the internet over 2 my house to sleep over.
Sixteen year old Emma had met the hardcore rapper online. He was said to have been visiting Emma from his California home. McCroskey recorded music which had graphic lyrics portraying murder and gore. The parents had taken Emma, “Sam” and Melania to a horrocore music festival in Michigan just a few days before the murders took place. The motive is unclear.
I wonder how many people have been killed/murdered at the Gathering of the Juggalos, but just sort of 'forgotten'/thrown in2 a river.
R u happy that justice has 'prevailed'?
Does Syko Sam deserve the death penalty?
Should 'the government' stop voting on Don't Ask, Don't Tell and start worrying abt horrorcore + juggalos?
Do juggalos even 'vote'?
Is the juggalo community 'sad' that 1 of their best rappers is going to 'burn in hell' / 'rot in prison'?
In the popular Insane Clown Posse music video "Miracles", one of the juggalo singers marvels at the wonders of the world, telling all humans to 'chill out' and 'appreciate life,' taking time to appreciate miracles. One line of the song that resonated with humanity was "fuckin' magnets--how do they work?" It seems like magnets are powered by some sort of magic force that we don't understand, and as humans, we're just trying to appreciate God's miracles. (Not sure if G-d is a juggalo).
The song + video for "Miracles" became a viral meme hit, inspiring mainstream/indie internet users to 'laugh at juggalos', cuz they are 'so dumb' and don't understand how magnets + rainbows + pelicans work/are created.
It seems like this juggalo bro has dedicated his personal brand to 'figuring out how magnets work'. Sorta just wanna vibe out with him, talk about miracles. Might make a few custom t-shirts, start a line, and try to get picked up by Hot Topic.
Sorta seems like the Insane Clown Posse 'closing the festival' with "Miracles" is sorta like the Arcade Fire closing Lollapalooza with "Wake Up."
Do yall know how magnets work?
Do u wish u had a juggalo personal brand?
Do u think magnets are a miracle?
Do u wish u went to The Gathering of the Juggalos instead of Coachella / Lollapalooza / ACL?
XX BONUS JUGGALO PLUMBER'S CRACK XX
XX BONUS JUGGALO WEED DEALER SELLING THAT DETROIT SHIT XX
U gonna go quarter or halfsies?
Juggalos are a subculture of uneducated, poor, violent white people who are 'despised' in the United States. It seems like they are some sort of 'second class citizens' who were created by the Lord Savior Jesus Christ God in order to give educated bros who chill on the internet a genre of white people to make fun of, since making fun of minorities is 'racist.' Anyways, it seems like some juggalos migrated/sailed on a juggalo version of The_Mayflower to find safe haven in Australia. They probably felt 'at home' since Australia used to function as a 'jail' / place to do experiments on humans for the British.
Anyways, so juggalos went to Australia, now they are committing violent crimes and the local news is forced 2 'cover' them.
A NOTORIOUS American youth gang known for its violent street crime and penchant for wearing clown make-up as a disguise has hit Sydney.
Police are investigating a possible connection between an attempted robbery in Fairfield and the gang known as "Juggalos" - or Juggalettes, for female members - made famous by criminal activities in the US.
The gang is also believed to be trying to recruit more members, with the group holding what is believed to be its first national "gathering" in Victoria next month. The gang already runs a number of online blogs and chat sites for members and those aspiring to join.
Do u live in Australia?
R u worried about juggalos?
Worried that Australian juggalos are getting mad violent. Afraid to go to Australia now because I will be killed by a juggalo.
(Also afraid to go to states like West Virginia and Kentucky based on the same logic.)
Three men wearing the Juggalos' trademark clown make-up attempted to rob a woman outside Fairfield RSL Club and were captured on CCTV footage wearing their "disguise".
About 12.10am on June 28, a 20-year-old woman was waiting outside the club for her boyfriend to pick her up when she was approached by the youths.
The men pulled chains from their pockets and demanded the woman's bag but when her boyfriend arrived they ran off towards the train station empty-handed.
Worried about chains.
Are juggalos a violent gang?
Will Australians 'relate' to juggalo culture, or are they gonna h8 the jugs as much as Americans do?
Juggalos and Juggalettes - who have been classified as a gang in at least six states of America - are fans of hard-core hip-hop and rap groups such as Insane Clown Posse.
Insp Bailey said while masks, including clown masks, had been used by criminals in the past as disguises during a crime, this was the first time he was aware of a group of men walking around the city wearing clown make-up looking for potential targets.
Do yall wish we could create an island where we could send juggalos and never have to deal with them again?
Are juggalos inherently violent, or did their social environments create them?
If u r a juggalo, will u seek out a new place 2 call home by sailing to australia?
Is Australia 'too electro' for juggalos?
Do yall h8 juggalos, or do u hope they just continue to produce memes 2 laugh at?
If u r from Australia, do u already have modern 'white trash' subcultures established?
Which ship is the most alt: The Nina, Pinta, Santa Maria, the Titanic, or the Mayflower?
Juggalos are a new zany subculture of American humans. They are usually poor, middle Americans who are mad uneducated. They listen to a genre of music called horrorcore, which is where a white dude with face paint raps about killing people, having sex with their dead bodies, and eating them. Even though juggalos can be any race/color/demographic, they are often associated with 'white trash', sorta like uneducated bros/a gathering of misfits who find 'strength in numbers.'
N e ways, they have a music festival / conference / gathering / seminar every year, and they create a video meme to 'hype it up.' It seems like it is an annual meme that all 'high level culture blogs' get to make fun of, since they are 'soo stupid, poor, and dumb.' Always a slam dunk of a meme to watch anything juggalo related, so it is super sweet of them to throw down this annual meme, showcasing how 'backwards'/'stupid' their culture is.
Feel like maybe juggalo festivals are more authentic than indie music fans. Their 'festival' is mad underground, and they don't have any corporate sponsorships. Wonder if that makes the festival more authentic. Feel like I might stop going to over-sponsored indie festivals.
When ur festival has a corporate sponsorship, do u make more money, or do u just 'put on a better festival'?
Will the Gather of the Juggalos be more dangerous than most California raves?
This year, will we see tons of internet humor video making bros go 'on location' the the festival to 'make fun of the juggalos' in a series of youtube/funny or die videos that get 'millions' of views?
Is the Juggalo Nation a chiller nation than 'Indie Nation'?
Are indie fans 'better than Juggalos' because their parents made more money than Juggalo Parents?
Do u feel bad for the old rap groups who now only appeal to a weird subgroup of white people
Feel like the gathering is probably a mad progressive place. A place where genres like 'rap' and 'rock' merge into a super genre [via Limp Bizkits].
Honestly kinda want to be a juggalo now. I feel like I have always been searching for 'my place in the world' and 'a group of like-minded individuals' to have relevant topical discussions with. Just wanna get meaningful, and feel 'not so alone.' So 'jaded' and 'snarky'--just wish I could believe in miracles again [via nostalgic images of youth].
Wanna ride the dreamwave
the jugg wave
the white trash wave
the goth clown prsnl brnd
Be a 2nd rate citizen
with a group of people who truly understand me
tired of upper middle class problems
just wanna be non-self-aware
and get drunk with my juggabros
R u gonna go to the Gathering of the Juggalos?
Is Juggalo bashing 'mainstream'?
Should we build a fence around the Gathering of the Juggalos, and keep the Juggalos from returning to society?
Are juggalos bad for society / America?
Are juggalos more 'pure' than indie music fans?
Are internet snarky culture blog readers 'better than' Juggalos because they browse the internet on premium Macbooks instead of crappy Dell / HP laptops?
Do the Gathering of the Juggalos seem like a chill experience, like a huge 'unemployment fair'?
Juggalos are sorta like the ultimate 'poor, uneducated people meme.' Since educated white people can't make fun of poor, uneducated minorities on a regular basis, juggalos have emerged as the perfect punching bag for 'people who we know we are better than.' In this photo, a juggalo pours Faygo, a popular juggalo soda, all over the breasts of a juggalo female. These photographs are sure to 'go viral' because they embody the spirit of Juggalo that the entire internet loves to make fun of.
Are these truly the perfect alternative breasts?
Would u want to drink faygo off the breasts of a juggalo? Does an authentic juggalo have faygo instead of breast milk?
Do u hope to go to an Insane Clown Posse concert before u die?
Why does the internet <3 2 make fun of juggalos?
Have u ever drank Faygo?
Is horrorcore the new indie?
Are these the most famous juggalo titties of all time?
Do yall believe in Miracles?
The Insane Clown Posse are the leaders of the juggalo nation, a group of degenerate white Middle Americans who like to listen to music about killing other humans. Recently, juggalos have been under fire from the mainstream media because juggalo fans have been murdering people, probably because they are uneducated + listen to music that makes graphic murder / sex seem like it is 'normal.'
This song seems like the juggalos are trying to 'rebrand', and or 'crossover.' They no longer want to just make songs about murdering people and having sex with dead bodies. They had to make an inspirational anthem to let every1 know that they love life. The song seems like a worse version of a hopeful Linkin Park song, or maybe that song by Crazytown called "Butterfly."
It seems like this is a rap song that a 5th grader wrote or something. Some of the highlights of the song include the lyrics:
If magic is all we've ever know
Then it's easy to miss what really goes on
But I've seen miracles in every way
And I see miracles everyday
Oceans spanning beyond my sight
And a million stars way above em at night
We don't have to be high to look in the sky
And know that's a miracle opened wide
Look at the mountains, trees, the seven seas
And everything chilling underwater, please
Hot lava, snow, rain and fog
Long neck giraffes, and pet cats and dogs
And I've seen eighty-five thousand people
All in one room, together as equals
Pure magic is the birth of my kids
I've seen shit that'll shock your eyelids
The sun and the moon, and even Mars
The Milky Way and fucking shooting stars
UFOs, a river flows
Plant a little seed and nature grows
Niagara falls and the pyramids
Everything you believed in as kids
Fucking rainbows after it rains
there's enough miracles here to blow your brains
I fed a fish to a pelican at Frisco bay
It tried to eat my cell phone, he ran away
And music is magic, pure and clean
You can feel it and hear it but it can't be seen
Music is all magic
(Are you a believer in miracles)
You can't even hold it
(Do you notice and recognize miracles)
it's just there in the air
(Are you a believer in miracles)
Pure motherfucking magic Right?
This shit'll blow your fucking mind
(Do you notice and recognize miracles)
Music is a lot like love, it's all a feeling
And it fills the room, from the floor to the ceiling
[ Find more Lyrics on http://mp3lyrics.org/RFGe ]
I see miracles all around me
Stop and look around, it's all astounding
Water, fire, air and dirt
Fucking magnets, how do they work?
And I don't wanna talk to a scientist
Y'all motherfuckers lying, and getting me pissed
Solar eclipse, and vicious weather
Fifteen thousand Juggalos together
And I love my mom for giving me this
Time on this planet, taking nothing for granted
I seen a caterpillar turn into a butterfly
Miracles ain't nothing to lie
Shaggy's little boys look just like Shaggy
And my little boy looks just like daddy
Miracles each and every where you look
And nobody has to stay where they put
This world is yours for you to explore
there's nothing but miracles beyond your door
The Dark Carnival is your invitation
To witness that without explanation
Take a look at this fine creation
And enjoy it better with appreciation
Crows, ghosts, the midnight coast
The wonders of the world, mysteries the most
Just open your mind, and it ain't no way
To ignore the miracles of every day
(Are you a believer in miracles)
Magic everywhere in this bitch
(Do you notice and recognize miracles)
it's all around you, you don't even know it
(Are you a believer in miracles) Shit's crazy
(Do you notice and recognize miracles,
So many miracles, the magic miracles)
Is the rebranding of horrorcore going to work?
Is the Insane Clown Posse one of your favorite buzzbands of 2k12?
Will ICP crossover into mainstream tween America?
Is this video better than the new MGMT video?
Do u believe in mutha fuckin miracles?
In order to educate upperclass Middle America about juggalo and horrorcore culture, ABC News did some piece where they basically listed all of the murders that self-proclaimed juggalos have committed, explained the violent content of horrorcore music, interview a police officer from a rural white town who deals with horrorcore murders, then they interview the Insane Clown Posse while they are wearing make up.
Wonder if we should send Insane Clown Posse to jail because they encourage people 2 kill other people in violent ways. Not sure if poor white people are 'educated' enough to understand what human life really means. It seems like all they really care about is listening to rap where artists talk about murder, cutting up the dead body, then having sex with the chopped up dead body.
Wonder what it is like to be in a juggalo buzzband. It seems like they probably make a lot of money off poor whites who still buy CDs. Might try to become a relevant horrorcore artist instead of trying to break into the internet indie chillwave game.
The interviewer, Martin Bashir, seems to have really 'fallen' since he did high level Michael Jackson interviews.
If u could interview a juggalo, what would u ask them?
Do yall think Middle America is worried that a juggalo will murder them?
Do u remember the time when juggalos wanted to murder Carles for calling them less than human?
Is Horrorcore bad for society/humanity?
Should I transition my brand into juggalo wave?
Will MTV create a new show similar to 'Jersey Shore' except about Juggalos?
