In 2010, a slow heavy metal music playing clown meme appeared on the internet. The clown in the meme is shown playing a bass guitar and is lip syncing to the song “Slow Ride” by Foghat. The clown’s slow, methodical movements and the somber music create a humorous and eerie effect.

The meme became popular on websites such as 4chan and Reddit, and has been used in a variety of ways including as an reaction image, an object labels meme, and as a Photoshop meme. The clown in the meme has also been used as a representation of Slowjams, a subgenre of heavy metal music that is characterized by its slow tempo and rugged vocals.

They were sometimes called “Auguste” clowns, after one of the first popular American circus clowns, Tony Pastor’s Auguste Frontini.

The slow, heavy metal music playing in the background of the meme is usually “Enter Sandman” by Metallica. This song was released in 1991 as the lead single from Metallica’s self-titled album.
