  • Sophie K chats to Neil Fallon of rock 'n' rollers Clutch shortly after their set at Wacken 2022 about the band's ability to fit in on festival bills from all over the alternative genre, their new album Sunrise on Slaughter Beach and how they recorded it differently to usual, experimenting with new instrumentation this many years into their career, and their longevity.

    In 1995 I was 14 years old, and didn't care for music, generally speaking. My father loves bluegrass and my mother never listens to music. My cousin introduced me to Clutch and it was unlike anything I had heard. I was immediately gripped. At this point, I'm uncertain how many times I've seen Clutch perform. Just saw them again in Raleigh a few weeks ago. When Neil spoke about the long term fans, I felt that. I hope I get to continue going to their shows long into the future.

    I noticed Clutch is playing different setlists in every festival this year, i don't know if they always have done that, but nowadays feels like an oasis in the desert, most bands are playing exactly the same for months, what's not wrong but there's no surprise element. I watched Clutch for the first time in Brutal Assault this year, loved it! You guys have a new fan ❤️
    Update 11.03.23: I saw them a second time December last year as they came to my town (Stuttgart), again a surprise! I had the privilege to listen Spacegrass live! Can't wait to see them again this Summer

      @7davesanchez 2 роки тому +6

      Never the same set list. They usually have songs that they play as mainstays on a single tour, but it's never the same. I think I read somewhere that they rotate through each four band members writing a set before each show.

Clutch has never had a bad album or show and I appreciate how they aren't putting out the exact same album over and over again. By far the greatest band around.🔥

He signed a cup for me and even put me on the list for their show at 9:30 Club later that month. All of these guys are stand up humans and I’m grateful to each of them for the dedication to their craft.

    " A nr1 hit is the worst thing that can happen. Especially right out of the gates." Very true. I've been to half a dusin Clutch concerts and they always plays hits like Mob Goes Wild and Spacegrass but it is never a dead theatre when they play other songs or even new songs they havent released yet. People who attend knows their portfolio and can jam along when they experiment with a somewhat obscrure track.

I have no doubt these guys will be around with their intense vibes and electric energy to catch me if I ever get this close to the land of 'The Nothing' again.
    If I make it through the darkness or we happen to run into each other around the corner. We will toast to the stamina they have had to endure through the changing times.
