If the Internet meme machine has seemed a little slow this summer, it’s probably because the Gathering of the Juggalos is less than a month away and Insane Clown Posse’s industrious label, Psychopathic Records, has yet to release 2012’s endlessly watchable Juggomercial. That’s already more than a month later than last year, when the 27-minute “earf”-bound spaceship scene revealed the nearly complete line-up on June 3. But this time around, the Midwestern company has not only been preoccupied with the upcoming release of ICP’s next studio album, The Mighty Death Pop, but its Michigan headquarters just endured a days-long power outage. So even though we haven’t been able to watch Sugar Slam narrate this year’s bill, a handful of booked performers have separately announced their Cave-In-Rock commitments. This amounts, as usual, to an amazingly random list of names that would basically never appear together anywhere else in the entire universe.
