Clutch!

[fading]

I had heard of them for a long time, but never heard their music until now. I think they are pretty freakin good. I dig their sound. I also like the singers raspy swager in his voice. The first tune I heard from them was 'Burning Beard' and dug the tune. What is everyones thoughts on this band.

 

[Chromatose]

LOVE them.

They're essentially a local band around here where I live, so I've been familiar with them for quite a while. Was a HUGE fan of their s/t album... but all their followup albums after that didn't really strike my fancy as consistently.

Up until the last 2 that is. The new one "robot hive/exodus" is deserving of classic status.

 

[fading]

cool. I downloaded two of the cds (legally). I will probably look for the S/T you mentioned.

 

[Chromatose]

the s/t is very different from the heavy blues rock of the recent albums.. quite a jam-rock influence.

 

[zortz]

Clutch rules. I have all thier albums. Got to see them @ SOTU last summer and they kicked ass. Mikael Akerfeldt from Opeth was watching and seemed to really enjoy their set.

 

[fading]

It is weird that I never listened to them. I always seen their cds, but never picked one up to give'em a listen. I guess I thought they were just one of those gay bands. Glad I finally gave them a listen.

Their cds are always fun to listen to. definitely a rockin good band

alright, those guys are so non photogenic I'm going to have to give them a try. It worked for Mouth of the Architect.

[dreaming neon darkspot]

alright, those guys are so non photogenic

it's a Maryland thing...

s/t Cluth album is fucking awesome.

 

[neonblak]

I had a copy of The Elephant Riders, but I couldn't get into it. Anybody recommend a different record or are they all similar?

 

[Ketshy]

The only clutch song I've heard seemed pretty lame, if I remember correctly the main lyric was "1 2, a 2 2 1, ...etc." So explain to me, was this really Clutch or am I imagining things, and if so, is it a bad example of their work or something?

 

[fading]

the song goes like this "100110100101... " somehting like that. That song isn't one of the better ones. 'Burning Beard' is a cool song.

 

[ZANEX]

Clutch is one of Maryland's finest (I presume). My friends Shane & Danny really like them and to me they're like "Stoner/70's/Fuzz rock". I've seen thme live twice and they're a good band. I suggest listening such releases as Pure Rock Fury, Jam Room, Blast Tyrant, Elephant Riders, Robot Hive/Exodus, Transinternational Speedway League (or whatever its called) and the self titled. Not exactly my cup o" tea but a good band to say the least.

 

[Mike]

the chorus to 10001110101 is kinda lame, but the rest of the song is pretty bad ass.

on that cd i really like the first track, forget the name now.

I don't know why but that made me laugh so hard
