[@anthonyadkins81]

CLUTCH is one of those obscure bands that have been around for 20+ years that haven't broken into main stream. You'll find out that they tend to be a musician's band. Like a musician's musician. They are appreciated by musicians and draw them in with their gravity. The topics range from the civil war , to something resembling "midnight in the garden of good and evil." With the song "cypress grove." This band needs to be praised for their originality and musicianship. I will always preach the good word of Clutch.

That is why Blast Tyrant is my favourite album of theirs, it's the time when their lyrics have been at their most coherent. Army of Bono and Mob Goes Wild have brilliantly expressed anger.

"Got another dog" and changing the locks refers to him coming back to the home they shared. The dog used to be his dog so it won't attack him. The locks are the same, he's still got the key. He's prayed for angels to change his mind, now the pendulum is swinging back on her. The need for "justice" and emotions have boiled over. He's taking her to walk the longest mile, referencing death.

[@societydwellingifd766]

This song tells the story of a spurned lover who murders his ex-lover because she has left him for another (richer) man. At the beginning of the song, he wishes to be lost along the way so that he will not commit the crime. Midway through- he is wishing that she took extra security measures so that there would be a chance he would not have murdered her. In the end, he is making the ‘long walk’ towards death/redemption, that one can infer is the walk from his cell to his execution.

I always felt the dog reference connects to switching up the locks, as in he still had keys to the lock and the dog they shared would not protect her from him. That whole verse seems to be about how she could have protected herself.

[@stevesoldwedel]

It's an insightful comment about Neil's tone being authoritative. It serves him well in "Burning Beard" where he plays Evangelical preacher to a horde of robots who've taken over the world. As for The Regulator, I'm relaying this second hand, but the song is about going to the house to murder his ex. He's telling her she should have taken pains to keep him out but, because she didn't change the locks, he was able to get in, and because she didn't get another dog, the one they had recognized him and didn't bark, allowing him to sneak in and kill her. The longest mile is the road to perdition.

Clutch is tricky. Very, very tricky. There are some good suggestions in here, but also a few I'd steer clear of until later. This song's alright but it does a disservice to the imagery, wit, energy and groove the band can get going, even compared to other songs on the same album. "Electric Worry" is a pretty standard blues-rock song; catchy, good, but doesn't get to the crux of why people really dig into the band either. There's also a lot of songs that bend too far the other way. "Burning Beard" I love but that's not what you use to sell someone on the band, with the riff's time signature and the lyrics liable to throw someone for a loop. A lot of the album it's from is almost all "advanced-listening" level. Stuff from their self-titled and earlier, like "Spacegrass" or "Escape from the Prison Planet" kind of have the same problem; same reason I love "Texan Book of the Dead" but I'd never show that to someone as a point to dive in. I'd say save these for later. Clutch's wheelhouse (to me, obviously) is a sweet spot between blues rock, southern rock and stoner rock with some fun wigged-out sense of lyrics. As time's gone on, they've really streamlined their act, which might not tickle the real heads' sensibilities, but there's absolutely no shame in skewing more recent. If you want to play it safe and get the all-killer-no-filler version of what Clutch does and does well: The Mob Goes Wild (*), Cypress Grove (*), The Incomparable Mr. Flannery, Earth Rocker, X-Ray Visions (*), A Quick Death in Texas (*), Sucker for the Witch. Once you're feeling a little braver and have a feel for the vibe: Mice and Gods, 10001110101, Power Player, 10,000 Witnesses, 50,000 Unstoppable Watts, In Walks Barbarella, Vision Quest. From then in you can probably start making more sense of the other suggestions people are making and decide if you wanna dive deeper (which I'd totally recommend!) or be happy with the context you've got. Too many words but whatever. Not the first time, won't be the last.

[@devildart]

GasparLewis that was spot on. I always thought that Subtle hustle would be a good introduction to Clutch for this channel, but I can't disagree with any of your choices either. Behold the colossus or Crucial velocity would be strong contenders too. Also something from the Pure rock fury album, which I feel is an overlooked album by Clutch fans.

Clutch have been around for 25 years. They got everything from fast and hard heavy rock songs to straight up Blues covers. They are fantastic. Burning Beard, Electric Worry The Wolfman Kindly Request. Great songs.

[@ElijahsGirl4ever]

I've seen many of your "reaction" videos...i noticed you guys were listening to this very close to this..that is Clutch...listen again and notice the drum work! one of the best jazz, blues,hip hop drummers around...

[@kennybrew100]

The beauty of what Clutch does with music is that they combine awesome riffs and sounds with Neil's ideas, lyrics that a lot of the time don't have a definite meaning, just images and ideas for you to make your own story, there's no wrong interpretation

[@WebsterA]

Its a few days later and Ryan is still staring blankly..

[@truthless8261]

Big news would be a good one for them imo

[@kennybrew100]

It's tough to pick just one. There are so many sounds and styles with clutch, you can't listen to one song and understand who they are

Clutch reinvents their sound from album to album and sometimes song to song. You have to listen to more of their music to grasp their artistry and musicianship

[@chadroland5928]

Thank you so much for the Clutch love. They’re a really great rock band and deserve more exposure. They are quite interesting, lyrically and always bring a strong groove. I’d love to hear some Down soon.

[@BourbonondaBayou]

Chad Roland stone the crow or beautifully depressed

[@paulm1410]

I've been requesting Down quite a bit, Stone the Crow would be a perfect way to introduce what they are about.

[@tomheneghan9602]

Alright, Clutch. Regulator is a good song. Burning Beard, Earth Rocker, Electric Worry, Elephant Riders and Dragonfly are far more dynamic and rocking. Clutch's power, lyrically speaking, has always been the imagery. For example, I don't know exactly what Oh, Isabella is about, but it sounds like they're referencing the disastrous arrival of Europeans to South America. I just love the well crafted versus that draw a scene for the listener. Personally, I think Burning Beard is the best song they've written so far. Incidentally, I've seen Clutch play about twice a year, every year for two decades now. I've never seen a bad show. They're one of the best live bands going.

[@KidRoctopus93]

Clutch is always the the first band I show new black dudes I meet when music is brought up

[@moffe2k]

Good song! I feel Electric Worry should also be done! Also, still want Darkness Within by Machine Head!

[@FCSAIRECAPPOD]

That's an ok song but it's not a good representation of Clutch. Their other stuff is better and heavier

[@board_gamer_geek4309]

This is the greatest band on the planet. It's not just the music, they have been touring for 27 years and love to do it. The songs played live take the music to another level and I have seen few shows/bands that play a better show (in my heyday, I got and took the chance to see these guys over a 100 times) that's how good they are to me. I think this was probably not the best song for a first Clutch! song but one of my favorites for a band that I do not dislike one song by. Muchas Veces is one of my favorite songs along with Dragonfly, Purerockfury of course the whole album and song by the same name. Even if you don't do a review of them, check out other Clutch! songs, you will not be disappointed. They have 12 albums and various other lps and the like, so you got plenty to check out.

[@barkerch737]

Clutch shows are like going to church for me. That's where I worship. And every show is great in its own way. They never disappoint.

[@brianamos747]

Metal Church - Badlands

[@chrisschibel6013]

This album start to finish is one of my favorites of all time. And Clutch is one of my favorite bands. If they were around in the early to mid seventies they would have been one of the biggest bands on the planet

[@Slinky518]

Clutch is such a great band... but hard to pin down. They flow from genre to genre. I think you guys would have more fun with songs like "Drink To The Dead," "Subtle Hustle," "Animal Farm," "Escape From The Prison Planet," "Cypress Grove," and "Tight Like That." Definitely worth a second chance.
