They can do no wrong.

I’ve said it before, and I’ll keep saying it; if there’s a better musical act than Clutch, I am yet to see it.

Sunday’s instalment came in the form of a co-headlining show at the Astoria with Corrosion of Conformity. Seemed a bit of an injustice that Clutch were on before COC, seeing as the write up in TimeOut didn’t even mention COC, and the audience wasn’t split in COC’s favour judging by the amount of people leaving as soon Clutch left the stage. But they soldiered on.

A few old classics to start with, and a few new ones for the 14 year olds at the end. And lots of good stuff in between, including the best in-song drum solo I’ve seen in a long while. I keep thinking they have to do a bad show soon, but it never happens. COC, as expected couldn’t follow them, but they were hampered by very muddy sound so we’ll let them off this time.
