ELECTRIC CLOWNS bring punk attitude, heavy guitars, and digital chaos together on “Mémère dans les orties.” The track introduces a band that treats music as both a performance and a character driven spectacle. Born in Brussels and now spread across Paris and London, the trio builds its sound around punk, metal, alternative rock, and electronic influences. Their approach is loud, unpredictable, and deliberately excessive, with no interest in playing by the rules.

At the centre of ELECTRIC CLOWNS is a blend of distorted guitars, thunderous drums, electronic loops, samples, and beats. The lineup features a guitarist and vocalist, a hard hitting drummer, and a DJ vocalist who cuts through the music with samples and electronic textures. Together, they create a sound that moves between aggressive rock energy and danceable rhythms. Meanwhile, catchy hooks and memorable choruses keep the music accessible beneath its chaotic surface.

The band’s influences range from AC/DC and the Red Hot Chili Peppers to the Sex Pistols, alongside industrial metal and alternative culture. However, ELECTRIC CLOWNS are not interested in simply recreating the sounds that inspired them. Instead, they push those influences into a more contemporary setting, where a guitar can resemble a chainsaw and a drum pattern can hit with explosive force. Electronic loops can also transform a heavy riff into something built for the dance floor.

Beyond the music, the band’s identity plays an equally important role. Behind their clown masks and makeup, the members keep their identities deliberately mysterious. Their characters help shape a world that is provocative, cynical, funny, and occasionally absurd. As a result, ELECTRIC CLOWNS turn every performance into an extension of their wider creative universe.

Their lyrics take aim at the contradictions and obsessions of modern life. Topics include sex, money, social media, ego, consumerism, and the everyday anxieties of contemporary society. Rather than treating these subjects with solemnity, the band approaches them with humour, excess, and a sharp sense of irony. The world may already feel like a circus, but ELECTRIC CLOWNS amplify the spectacle through their twisted perspective.

The trio also brings this visual approach into its music videos, using artificial intelligence as a creative tool. Through distorted realities and multiplied characters, the band expands its theatrical identity beyond the stage and studio. This combination of sound and imagery reflects its belief that music and visual storytelling belong together. With “Mémère dans les orties,” ELECTRIC CLOWNS present a world where punk, metal, electronic experimentation, and dark humour collide. Their mission is simple: deliver music that hits hard, leaves an impression, and refuses to behave.
