Jack White and Insane Clown Posse Team Up: Weird or Epic...or Both?

Let me start by saying that I have never been a big fan of Insane Clown Posse. Never got it...probably never will. Now, throw in Jack White into the mix and I'm sold! I never saw this coming but it did, and it's pretty ridiculous and awesomely weird.

From the Third Man Records news release:

Back in '82, ahem, 1782, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart wrote a piece that's been left out of the spotlight ever since. The title of the piece is "Leck Mich Im Arsch" or literally translated to English as "Lick me in the arse." Understandably this piece has figuratively been swept under the rug. So who better to give this piece it's due respect than the wildly successful, much misunderstood, and divisive Southwest Detroit rappers Insane Clown Posse?

With fellow Southwest Detroit-born Jack White at the production helm and musical backing by Nashville's very own Jeff the Brotherhood, this 2011 version of "Leck Mich Im Arsch" marries Mozart's melody (and lyrics sung in operatic German) with ICP's poignant lyrical addition in English and Jeff the B’s monster-riffs, letting the whole thing tie together in the most beautiful of ways.

The 7" single and iTunes digital download can be copped on September 13th. In addition, 100 special limited edition copies of the single will be available at the MI Fest in Brooklyn, Michigan on September 17^th. Let's hope that Jack White's Rolling Record Store makes an appearance.

With that said, here is the track for your enjoyment:
