Clutch - Blast Tyrant (20th Anniversary Clear & Blue Swirl Vinyl)

Thick riffs, restless grooves and Neil Fallon's unmistakable storytelling make Blast Tyrant a record with a personality all its own. Clutch's sixth studio album brings their muscular blues and stoner rock into sharp focus, moving from the swagger of “The Mob Goes Wild” to the darker pull of “The Regulator”. Heavy without losing its swing, it is a meeting of tightly locked rhythm, wiry guitar and strange, vividly drawn characters.

Formed in Germantown, Maryland, in 1991, Clutch built their reputation through relentless touring and records including their 1993 debut Transnational Speedway League, their self-titled follow-up and Pure Rock Fury. Originally released on 23 March 2004 and produced by the band and Machine, Blast Tyrant captures Neil Fallon, Tim Sult, Dan Maines and Jean-Paul Gaster refining that distinctive chemistry. This 2024 Weathermaker Music reissue marks the album's 20th anniversary, pressed on clear vinyl with blue swirl and available exclusively at the anniversary tour merchandise table.
