Drums For Clowns Bring the Raw Emotion of Grave Concern Back to Life

At the height of their career, Drums For Clowns were selling millions of records and establishing a worldwide fanbase. Led by songwriter and vocalist Kit Cooper, the fiercely independent British outfit has always been defined by substance over hype, heart over flash, and passion over pretence. 

Grave Concern was a tune Drums For Clowns first released more than two decades ago. A dark, gritty, and deeply human piece of rock, it explores loss, grief, mental health, and the lasting impact of those who remain with us long after they've gone.

Deciding (correctly) that the track deserved another chance to shine, Drums For Clowns recently brought Grave Concern back into the spotlight. More than twenty years after its first release, its subject matter remains every bit as relevant today.

Frenetic, angry, and filled with melancholy, Grave Concern is an unapologetically raw and real composition. It's intense and gripping - a brutally honest listen from beginning to end.

"Some songs are written because you want to write them," says Cooper. "Others are written because they won't leave you alone. Grave Concern was one of those."

Powerful, haunting, and now accompanied by a highly thought-provoking music video featuring Cobain Cooper, Grave Concern is one of those special tunes that somehow feels like it arrived at just the right time. Genius!
