Ostensibly this movie fights the doomed free speech fight against the FBI categorizing fans of rap-rock group Insane Clown Posse (ICP), known as “Juggalos,” as members of a gang; more accurately, it looks into the ICP phenomenon and why it appeals to the growing group of dispossessed in America.

Nu-“metal” (really rap rock) bands Korn and Slipknot were banned by an American military captain heading a command post according to a Department of Defense memo posted to Twitter by a United States Marine. Also forbidden from being played at all hours were late 90s and early 2000s butt rock bands Smashmouth, Nickelback, and Creed. The reason for the officer banning the playing of the groups’ music in totality was that they were “terrible.” Hopefully this officer has his wits about him and bans metalcore and hipster whine rock if whichever imbecile was playing rap rock moves onto other styles of “terrible” rock music.
