Blast Tyrant by Clutch (CD, Mar-2006, DRT Entertainment)

If you like the "the groove", this album is a fine example of pure groove and rock solid heavyness! Clutch are without a doubt the masters of their domain, both lyrically and musically. Clutch have over the years been able to create their very own distinctive sound and their own type of heavy rock which is reconizable instantaneously. Clutch is not, and probably never will be, a "single" kind of band. They don´t make music that the average person can really get into without an effort, which is one of the qualities that a rock fanatic, such as myself, really does appreciate. It takes a while to "get" what clutch is, and what their music is about. And once you´re in, you just can´t get enough.
Blast Tyrant is one of my favorite albums at the moment, I suggest you check it out and really give it a listen, preferably with a good pair of headphones. Blast Tyrant is a good place to start off with Clutch if you haven´t heard them before and don´t have any of their albums. (Next choice would be their latest release: Robot hive/Exodus). If you´re into heavy rock music and want something fresh... Clutch is a good fresh kick in the ass!!
