Melbourne Band ‘Clowns’ Are Getting Hate Mail Over Creepy Clown Craze & Their Replies Are Perfection
Australia’s clown siege continues to grip the nation, as paranoid Aussies become afraid to turn around any dark corner. The so-call ‘clown epidemic’ can be whittled down to a few idiots around the country, donning creepy clown suits and wielding weapons, scaring the bejebus outta us all, simply for shits and gigs.
But take a minute to think about Melbourne hardcore punk band Clowns, that simply because of their name, are receiving a whole lotta hate mail right now from scared and irrational social media users.
Clowns took to Twitter this week, to offer a PSA; telling people to quit sending them abuse, you have the WRONG clowns.
(Warning: expletive language)
REMINDER: We are a band from Australia and in no way are we related to the recent clown sightings in the US so plz stop messaging us filth. pic.twitter.com/1mup16pp9H

The band even said on their FB page on Monday, that they are legit receiving “abusive messages every 5 minutes”. What is so wrong with people, that they can’t manage a quick Google search?
They’ve been sharing some of the hateful messages they’ve received and their replies. After such incessant abuse, the band basically started to troll the shit out of these clueless people, and it’s hilarious viewing.
Poor dudes, but at least they’re having fun with it.
Here’s some of our faves replies.
