Clutch. Greatest band of all time? The answer, according to one weirdo, is yes.

Let's talk about 'em!

Kidding (mostly). I love Clutch but others might not. In any case, what I do want to talk about here is music. Bands/albums/songs you love/enjoy/groove to? Feel free to jump in.

 

Personally, and I do mean personally, the only band I really need is Clutch. Every song, every album, hits me where I live. Dunno why or how, but it do. Hearing that poet croon about how she could've been a swan on a glassy lake, a gull in a clippers wake, or even a ladybug on a wind-chime, but was born a dragonfly... Well, it makes me feel things.

But Clutch isn't the only band I'm into, just the go-to.

Melvins, Nekrogoblikon, Night Club, Lazerpunk, these are some of my favs. I'm drawn most to poetic lyrics, introspective themes, and achingly beautiful manipulation of sound, especially vocal sound. In the case of synth artists like Lazerpunk or Damokles what I like about them is the pulsing beats or funk laden synth riffs. If it kindles a flame in my heart, head, soul, or body, then I love it.
