CLOWN CORPSE were first conceived in Hull city UK the band were formed out of the Remnants of the band Planet Ten in autumn 2006. After 11 years of Gigs around the UK & Scotland , Planet Ten eventually ground to a holt. We all still loved to have fun on stage and we always liked to have the audience to have a good time watching us, consequently CLOWN CORPSE was born.As we needed an image to go with the name so then the legacy began. After a few line-up changes we began to push thing's on & try new ideas which then moulded the band as we now know it.We are due to enter the studio to record our first full length album entitled 'Master of Illusion'which is already looking to leave our first release buried in time as we have had more time to bond musically & personally along with the return of our original guitarist Cocky the Clown to return to the camp,we are now under Era Horrificus Productions run by Paul Allender formerly of Cradle of filth also we have a new website http://www.clowncorpse.com/ & our new YouTube channel clowncorpse2019 so feel free to checkout those & our Instagram we hope to see you there ;) many thanks for your support!!!!
“I then went on to catch some of the DJs in the dance tents. Dub smugglers were brilliant and had the crowd skankin’ throughout their set whilst the Monkey Radio tent was packed out with people dancing like there was no tomorrow. The atmosphere was brilliant. I then went to catch the almighty Clown Corpse. They played a set full of classics and even played a few off their upcoming album. A highlight of the set was definitely the awesome “Nightmare Masquerade”, which consisted of brutal growls and chugging guitars. Awesome set! 5/5
My weekend at Bomfest was a wild one and I will definitely be back next year for more. Brilliant little festival.”

“‘Nightmare Masquerade,’ is the best track on the EP as it has all the elements that play to the strengths of Clown Corpse it has great instrumentals as well as the lyrics are very theatrical and powerful, these have been the running themes throughout the EP and I hope to see them live soon as I believe this EP is just the start for this black metal band in short.”

“Clown Corpse,they have a somewhat theatrical style, that suits their type of music which is both tuneful, yet dark in most places,
The Clown Corpse image is one of the carnival clown, it has a dark sinister allure, which is mirrored in their music,yet it showcases perfectly the embodiment of what Clown Corpse are all about, great lyrics and thrashing instruments, topped off perfectly by their, theatrics as well as their own style.
‘The Chosen One,’ is a really strong track instrumental wise as it highlights that these are very accomplished musicians, the key strengths in this piece are the guitars in particular the bass as it acts as an anchor that keeps everything in line all the way through the track, with all these layers going on in the track you need that linchpin.

“I play so many metal bands on my shows that it's sometimes hard to remember them all. That's certainly not the case with Clown Corpse. Not only has this band been with me almost since the first "Metal Monday" show, they've appeared on all three of my shows - something that very few bands get to do. Clown Corpse is the real deal and I love playing their songs for my listeners. http://www.blogtalkradio.com/annie-christ http://www.basementsound.co.uk”

"Clowncorpse - its not all just hair and makeup! These guys actually sound as sadistic as they look - Grinding guitar riffs, drums to windmill to and vocals to put you in the mood for a clamorous mosh pit! If you haven't seen these guys live yet - you are seriously missing out! A band for serious metal-heads!"
