I was always convinced that those symbols were some sort of coded message. Anyone know what they mean? Am i just looking to much into it? Any way, I always thought it looked fresh.

Can you post any pics? I only own the Opaque Brotherhood album and I don't know what specific symbols you are talking about.

I heard the one in 'Tales From The Lotus Pod' said "By the time you've finished translating this shit, you'll know what the fuck it says!"

Then again, the girl who told me this also said she had it on good authority that ICP would disband after the 6th came out

In the Opaque Brotherhood, there are pictures of the Chinese Terracotta Army. Qin Shi Huang, the first Emperor of China, wanted to be buried with all of his soldiers. He had a mold made to represent each one of them for his grave site. He wanted the army to "protect" him and  to ensure he had people to rule in the afterlife. I think the army represents the juggalo army, and DL are the "emperors".  FOLLOW OUR LEAD INTO THE SPIRAL.

just looked at tales from the lotus pods booklet.  if there is a message there, i cant dope it out.  im sure its not a transpostion code, anyway. 

my guess would be the symbols are just motif art from whatever culture the rest of the graphics came from.  the opaque brotherhood disc art is clearly based on the i ching, for example. 

  awfully paranoid, arent you?

Maybe they have an actual code or something? I don't know, but they should continue throwing in weird shit in their booklets. The Bizzar albums had some awesome shit in it.

i believe black rains graphics are from southeast asia;  myanmar, thailand, etc.  it might be angkor wat. 

id like to see a south american themed lotus, though.  if they stay with the ancient ruins style, machu picchu would be perfect.
