In the most blatant blog bait we?ve seen in a while (hey, we bit, after all), Jack White?s label Third Man Records announced a forthcoming 7-inch single titled ?Leck Mich Im Arsch? from none other than the Insane Clown Posse. White produced the track himself, with a beat provided by gritt/goofy Nashville punk-pop duo JEFF the Brotherhood (whose 2011 album We Are The Champions opens with the sound of an airhorn, just ?cause) and interpolated from a Mozart canon in B-flat major also titled ?Leck Mich Im Arsch? (though for many years it was mistitled ?La�t Froh Uns Sein?).
We?re not entirely sure how these disparate elements came together, but we do know that ?Leck mich im Arsch? translates to ?Lick my ass,? and is the basis for ICP?s rhymes. Furthermore, the canon was renamed ?Let us be glad? at Mozart?s widow?s request by a publisher responsible for posthumously releasing the composer?s extant scores, but historical evidence came to light in 1991 confirming the canon?s original title and lyrics. Furthermore, Third Man Records was founded in Detroit (the home of ICP) and relocated to Nashville (the home of Jeff the Brotherhood). Beyond that, the song sort of speaks for itself. The single (with B-side ?Mountain Girl?) will be available for purchase September 13.
