not many of us heard all the jokers cards in the actual order they came out, right?
bein real, few were actually around for the very beginning, and not a lot of juggalos would use carnival of carnage as the example album to introduce somebody to icp.
obviously, at some point, you probably did start hearin em in order, as they came out. so, im talkin bout before that.
basicly, what order did you hear icps back catalogue in? and, did that affect your personal juggaloism, or whatever.
im puttin this up in an effort to give slum another ‘dope’ thread, whatever that means.
so, ill hold back on my tale for now, as an excuse to reboot it later, if or when it fails to constitute dopeness.

I started with a tape with songs from riddlebox and milenko. Then it probably went something like
Milenko
Riddlebox
Carnage
Ringmaster
Then the rest in order.
Don’t think it affected me much. Carnage sounds like ass so it was probably a great order to hear them in because it buries easily their roughest sounding album after their best work and then come back strong with ringmaster and ajb.
This is of course with countless relistens and the eps etc.
If you really believed that all lives matter we wouldn't need to say black lives matter

I came across Riddlebox in a used CD store in Ann Arbor, MI around ’95 or ’96. Knew nothing about it, just decided to pick it up cause of the “cool looking design on the cover”. Took it home and listened to it and I was INSTANTLY hooked. From there I started gathering up anything I could find. For Joker’s Cards specifically, I probably bought CoC and Ringmaster at the same time, though I don’t know which one I listened to first. From there it was in order as they came out as Milenko wasn’t out yet at the time I started listening. Riddlebox Era OG Juggalo, woop woop! hahah Just means I’m old :(

I actually started with CoC, but that was in 1999. I was using Napster to find Kid Rock songs and came across “Is That You?”. I went to the music store and bought the album. It wasn’t until 2007 before I bought the next ICP stuff. Which was basically all their albums up to The Tempest in one go from Amazon.
I think I listened to The Amazing Jeckel Brothers first when I received them, as my GF at that time said it was her favorite one. Not sure in what order I listened to the rest.

Well, I first heard tracks off Jeckel Bros in ’99 and I was hooked (5th grade. My mom sure loved that lol). For the actual full albums though:
Riddlebox
Bizaar/Bizzar (Not a joker’s card but whatever. This record (“?s” cover) was pivitul to me sticking with the music 100%. First time I heard Twiztid. I want to say I was 11 or 12.)
Milenko
Jeckel Bros
The Wraith
(Damn, guess those were in order looking back.)
Ringmaster
Carnival of Carnage

Hey guys just signed up to the forum been creeping for awhile now, this seemed like a good first topic to comment on…
My first jokers card was CoC I was maybe 6 or 7 and my uncle popped this cool blue cassette into a Walkman for me and I wore those headphones listening to that cassette during long car rides.. and I believed I listened to that tape over and over again on repeat for a few years.. then came milenko and then jeckel brothers… at this point I went back with the help of Columbia house and got everything else I had missed all at once now that I was able to access the internet and see what else was out there. So from Jeckel on I have been keeping up.

Well growing up in Mt. Clemens, MI and being 36 it really started out in ’93 for myself. Nobody really (I’m sure you all know this but this is my story) knew who ICP was during the COC era. What really put them on the map in the D was when Beverly Kills came out w/ Esham, that started the buzz. Then Ringmaster came out with the folk’s up and folk’s down and that was HUGE in Detroit at the time. Everyone and their mom was a GD or Latin Count ect, ect….Believe it or not but that was a great marketing scheme back then. A lot of people bought that album just because of the folk signs! I’m tell ya…then every kid in the area was talking about ICP this Esham that…
So for me it was:
Ringmaster
Beverly Kills
Riddle Box and so on…
So I’m about as OG as you can truthfully get…..A lot of lies when it comes to this subject.

For me:
milenko,
AMJ
Riddle Box
CoC
Ringmaster
thdn from the wraiths in order. EPs are scattered about and I’m. It sure where they fit in. Also this is only a prediction. First track I listened two was back in 03- boogie woogie and that’s because the gf at the time loved it for its lyrics, not for the band.

I also grew up in the Detroit area and was in high school when COC, Ring and Kills came out. It was a good time for local rap like MC Breed, Kid Rock, Esham and ICP. There is an awesome local scene right now as well.
Time has had it’s way with me but I am pretty certain it went like this for me:
Beverly Kills 50187
Dog Beats – bootlegged copy from a classmate
Carnival of Carnage
Ringmaster
Terror Wheel
I bought pretty much every release I could ever since then though I went through periods where I just wasn’t feeling them. Listening to kills always brings memories of high school back and so ICP will always have a little piece of my rotten heart.

We all need to start more threads! I agree it has definitely been picking up around here with both, dare I say, constructive threads along with new members. (Unless @scruffy is just makin a bunch of different profiles…?)

My brother played “Joker’s Wild” for me in a trailer way back around 97 I think. Intrigue immediately ensued. Then we played the whole album.
Strangely, this douchey punk wannabe at school gave up his 2 song disc of A Carnival Christmas cus he hated it. Some people try on The Pretentious Pants early in life, I spose.
So:
Riddlebox
A Carnival Christmas disc (not a Joker’s Card, I know)
Carnival of Carnage
Ringmaster
The Great Milenko
Everything I could fucking find… Forgotten Freshnesses etc
Amazing Jeckel Brothers
and then pretty much chronologically from there.

My cousin actually started me out with a Carnival of Carnage cassette in 95 or 96. Then it was Milenko, and Ringmaster then Riddlebox. We had to get that shit special ordered, but my homie’s mom was dating a record store owner so we got whatever we wanted.
And when I moved away from the town, me and the kid I split on the albums with divided them, I wanted Milenko and Riddlebox so he kept the original pressings of Ringmaster and Carnival of Carnage.

Sorry for the long story and shit. The short answer is this……
Beverly Kills 50187
Riddle Box
Terror Wheel
Jekel
In order from COC to recent
For those that want the story of HOW I first got on my baby juggalo diapers………….
Mine started twice, oddly. My dad had a band and he had a guy that was helping me set up his stage equipment. He stayed with us for a weekend full of gigs and we went to Blockbuster Music store (remember those?). He bought a casette that looked like a comic book cover with 2 clowns on it and played it once all the way through before leaving. Of course this was Beverly Kills 50187, but at the time I didn’t know who or what just happened. This was back in about 1994/1995-ish. I always wondered what that was, then in 1996 My baby sitter (I didn’t need one I argued at 11 years old) was this big dude who sat on the phone while I was on Super NES for the first hour or so of the night. Suddenly he pulls out a 6 foot bong made from PVC pipe and a mason jar, with a Tweety bird sticker on it, pulls a bottle of vodka out of the freezer, hands me this green and purple faced CD with a black background (Riddle Box) and says “Put in on #4 and smoke this with me.” Chicken huntin’ ensued, I made him play the whole disc all night even though he hated the album. I ended up not letting him leave with it. He had the CD but no case, he didn’t know who they were or anything so neither did I (AGAIN!). Fast forward to 1999 and I am calling myself a wicked clown and Juggalo and whatnot not even knowing anything but RB and met somebody in marching band class who was into ICP. Funny story actually. We were both getting chastised for not knowing sheet music and he called us “a couple of clowns”, to which we replied “WICKED CLOWNS!”. So we skipped the rest of the day instead of going to the principals office and he is like “listen to this shit”. Discman starts up and its terror wheel… I quickly realized this was the same group and had questions. The next week we go to our local Vinyl/CD store and look for an hour and cant find ICP anything, the dude asks what we were looking for and when we said ICP he is like “step up to the register”. He had a whole row of ALL ICP in order from COC to Jekel with inbetweeners! I bought AJB in both collectors sleeves and we bumped that shit for the entire year! Got Mostasteless from the same dude as well, he was like “if you like that I got this on sale for $5”. SOLD. We are still brothers to this day, and I honestly think we both would have killed ourselves without putting on those baby juggalo diapers back in ’99!!
My buddy has a shorter but funny story, he (Icaboo) started with Riddle Box, he found it in a racing PC game case outside of a 7-11 store and thought that was what it was. Popped it in and waited for the game to load, heard music and people talking, car wreck, then thought it was broke with no visuals. Then it continued and he was hooked. It was the promo version with a couple of Hed P.E. tracks at the end actually….
STORY TIME IS OVER, GO THE FUCK TO SLEEP MAN! DAMN!

From Wiki
Riddle Box was released in four different versions. One version was the standard pressing, a second contained a bonus track of snippets from four Hed PE songs, a third featured reversed colors on the disc, and a fourth was a remastered version.
