Welcome to the world of Underground Clowns
Roll up….. Roll up for the ride of a lifetime on the Ghost train of madness with the Underground Clowns
Welcome to the metal big top!
Since the late 80s the Clowns in one way or another have been working in the music field. Starting off in a band called “New Dimension” and styling their music on a mixture of the glam metal bands from that time, they have always believed that a mixture of sounds work best. Crossing over from all styles of music including blues metal there’s always room to make some kinda glam metal regardless of where it originated from.

📜 OUR STORY
Passion, Riffs & Memories
Our love for music runs deep. We are driven by an intense passion for the sound we love, from the golden age of 80s Heavy Glam Metal right through to the hard-hitting rock of today. It’s not just what we play; it’s who we are.
From South East London to Now
The story goes way back. It all started when we were just kids growing up in South East London, picking up instruments for the first time and dreaming of making some noise. Back in the day, we formed our very first band called "New Dimension" — learning, practicing, and discovering the magic of rock together.
We also carry special, loving memories of our time with the band "Blackbone Fever" — days, nights and music that will always stay in our hearts and shaped who we are as musicians.
Over the years, the sound evolved, the style got darker and heavier, and the circus grew... but that same spark from those early days in South East London never went out.
Today, we are Underground Clowns — bringing you that classic big sound, heavy riffs, and theatrical madness, carrying the torch for the music we fell in love with all those years ago. 🤡🚂🔥
Big thanks.
🤘 SPECIAL THANKS & GEAR 🤘
