The "What Are You Doing This Moment" Thread

[EspaDa]

Id probably say their self titled album and Blast Tyrant are their best. Some of their other albums have good songs, but they suffer from being consistently good imo. The new stuff all seems to kind of be an inferior derivative of the sound they found on Blast Tyrant, except I am a little partial towards From Beale Street to Oblivion (hardly new at this point though as it was released in 07). Part of the charm of the band is the clever wordplay in their lyrics, but you may have a hard time getting into them if you dont like the strong southern blues influence in their sound. Check out the self-titled and Blast Tyrant. Ill post a song from each that I like. Im not sure if you will like them though.

You could have chosen better songs as representatives.

Blast Tyrant with the bonus disc is probably the best single buy from their catalogue, but the newest release is probably the second.

 

[Carpe Mortem]

^My opinion exactly. Agreed also on a heavy appreciation of their slower songs.

Ghost is another great one. THE SONS OF CAIN RECEIVE NO REPRIEVE!

Yeah formulaic is a word I would use to describe what I've heard by Clutch. What is their best material? Maybe I haven't heard it.

They don't have any good material. They have a few good songs and that's it.

Hurr durr theyre overrated.

Echoing shit already mentioned here.

Blast Tyrant, Psychic Warfare, but also Earth Rocker and Robot Hive/Exodus for a Blast Tyrant jr.

I'm going to remember this when you talk shit about some band I like that you don't like you fucking faggot.

 

[Dak]

If any of their albums are formulaic it's Earth Rocker. I like the album generally but it's definitely mailed in.

 

[The Ozzman]

CoC is a better band anyway

I generally am not one of the guys that talks shit on what you like. Poke fun at you a bit, maybe... but I'm already in major minorities on this board listening to sludge and brutal death garbage.

You can't have any good songs if you supposedly don't have any good material. Just saying. I don't like this band and don't care whether or not you do, but your post doesn't make sense.

Yet you cared about my opinion. There you go again flaunting your ego.

Yea, I figured I would get shit for not posting Spacegrass. Personally I just like Clutch better when they arent trying to write anthems for stoners. I was also thinking about posting Escape From the Prison Planet. As for the Swollen Goat pick, I like the song because it has a better jam and is less 'commercial hit' than The Mob Goes Wild. It already seemed obvious that I wasnt convincing anybody though.

And oh shit here comes another stupid argument.

Cool story.

 

[Serjeant Grumbles]

I wouldn't say formulaic so much as subtle repetition of instrumental theme, with different nuances. If I'm being simplistic, Clutch is basically the best bar band you've ever heard, with some really sultry tunes that stand out as bluesy rock masterpiece peppered throughout their discography. They've a very masculine sound with, as stated, excellent lyrical content. But they are heavily reminiscent of dirty bars where gearhead blue collar men drink simple beers. How you feel about that is obviously subjective. I dig it, a whole lot.

By blue collar men do you mean surly kitchen managers?

 

[The Ozzman]

Cool story.

Especially when it's true. How's your return Omni?

halloween is over, now we have a couple weeks of nothing to do until Thanksgiving.
I will enjoy this shit!

That's all that I have to say on that matter.

That's a weird looking picture of Acca Dacca, also they fucked the band name up. Weird.

Glad you're back mate!!

Today is All Saint's Day. Not some fucking Halloween. It's the real deal in Poland, you go to the graveyard and do the shit.

EDIT: Also the fourth year of my account's creation's today. Cherish you've got me here, fuckers.

That's a pity they never play it live!
