It is one of only two Joker's Cards to not feature the word ''{{UsefulNotes/Juggalo}}'' in the lyrics, the other being ''The Wraith: Hell's Pit'', for completely different reasons. It isn't on ''Carnival Of Carnage'' because ICP didn't have enough of an audience yet to make it worth the effort to name them, and it's isn't on ''Hell's Pit'' because, as Violent J said on the "Seminar" [=DVD=] included in some editions of ''Music/TheWraithShangriLa'', "I don't want to see any Juggalos in Hell's Pit.''

''Carnival of Carnage'' is Music/InsaneClownPosse's 1992 debut album and the first Joker's Card. It marked the change from the GangstaRap Inner City Posse to the Wicked Clowns. The concept is that if nothing is done to repair the inner cities, the violence of the ghettos will be visited on suburbia.
