About

Riddle Box is the third studio album by American hip hop duo Insane Clown Posse, released on October 10, 1995 by Battery Record. It is the third Joker's Card entry in the groups Dark Carnival saga. The eponymous Riddle Box is a jack-in-the-box that decides whether your soul is sent to Shangri-La or Hell's Pit in the afterlife. The album's themes mostly revolve around those of death; in "12", Insane Clown Posse rapper Violent J takes revenge and kills 12 juror members who were involved in sentencing him to death. There are four different versions of the album: the standard pressing, a version containing a bonus track of snippets from four Hed PE song, a version with reversed colors on the disc and a remastered version. Riddle Box was the second Insane Clown Posse album to be certified Gold. The album spawned one single, "The Joker's Wild". The album contains 16 studio track. "Chicken Huntin'", which was remixed for Riddle Box, was previously released on Insane Clown Posse's 1994 album Ringmaster. "Dead Body Man" was also previously released in 1994, on the group's second EP The Terror Wheel, in a slightly lower key. .
