Review by Paul Monkhouse for MPM
Clutch are a force of nature, it’s as simple as that. Led by the manic Southern Baptist style of Neil Fallon, their commanding grooves and relentless cool has seen the band release some of the finest hard rock of their generation and winning a fanatically devoted following.
Revisiting the title track from their 1992 EP, this sees the Maryland quartet teaming up with guest vocalist Randy Blythe from Lamb of God to turn up the heat to planet melting temperatures.
The power and molasses thick rhythms come together in a devastating, canyon deep, wave and the unrestrained energy of the two frontman give this a feral edge that’s impossible to ignore. Seismic enough to tip the world on its axis, Clutch have done it again.
Clutch is:
Neil Fallon – Vocals/Guitar
Tim Sult – Guitar
Dan Maines – Bass
Jean-Paul Gaster – Drums/Percussion
