The Dark Carnival is rolling into Louisville. Insane Clown Posse, those face painted masters of mayhem are set to unleash chaos on Friday, 19 September. The Louder Than Life stage won’t know what hit it with a swarm of Juggalos heading their way! Known for their deranged theatrics and cult like Juggalo following, Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope are no strangers to turning festivals into carnivals of the bizarre. This appearance promises to be no different!
For ICP, this Louder Than Life slot marks yet another chapter in a touring year soaked in Faygo and fury. Before they storm Kentucky, they’ll host their own infamous gathering: The Gathering of the Juggalos, running 13–16 August. That event’s less a festival and more a four day descent into the underworld, equal parts music, chaos and family reunion for Juggalos worldwide. Having attended just one, I can say this ‘It was truly unforgettable’, you need to get to at least one! Fans attending both are in for a treat, you can expect all sorts of energy and a whole bunch of Faygo when ICP hit Louder Than Life.
Having cut their teeth on underground horrorcore in the early ‘90s, ICP have spent decades perfecting their unique brand of out there music. Whether you’re there for the violent rhymes, the freakshow aesthetics or just to dodge streams of Faygo flying over the crowd, their Louder Than Life set is essential viewing. If you’ve ever been slightly curious to check out an ICP show, this is your chance, there’s a reason why they’ve lasted decades in the industry with minimal mainstream support. One of those reasons is because they put on an amazing live show, one that will leave you wanting to go back for more!
Get ready for carnage, expect surprises, but don’t expect to leave dry. Maybe pack a rainjacket?
Louisville, Kentucky – September 18 to 21
Louder Than Life itself is packing a monster lineup this year, but ICP’s inclusion stands out, proof the festival’s not afraid to push the boundaries.
