You have reached the pinnacle, a peak in a journey that began years ago, when the Dark Carnival opened it's gates and the Insane Clown Posse unleashed the CARNIVAL OF CARNAGE. That was the first of six mighty Joker's Card albums, a decade- spanning saga that climaxed with the platinum selling GREAT MILENKO AND AMAZING JECKEL BROTHERS, and wrapped with a vision of the afterlife, THE WRAITH: SHANGRI-LA AND HELL'S PIT. The Joker's Cards had been dealt, but the Carnival carried on, as the caravan entered THE CALM, 2005's record breaking EP. That was just a prelude, an opening chapter to a new era for Insane Clown Posse's Dark Carnival chronicle. The storm has loomed on the horizon but now THE TEMPEST is here.
