CLUTCH THRASH! Probably not, but maybe.

CLUTCH THRASH! Probably not, but maybe.

If you're expecting a new album from Clutch this year after 2015's Psychic Warfare, guess what! It's not going to happen. According to frontman Neil Fallon in an interview with A Music Blog, Yea?, Clutch will be taking this whole year to write some new music, and will hit the studio about one year from now.

"Well, we'll take a couple of weeks off just to unpack our heads. And then we plan to get right back into it and start working on new material with the idea that we'll probably record a year from now. So knowing what kind of tours we have, we have to start sooner rather than later. And do, you know, boring domestic chores that we've been putting off for eighteen months."

Fallon adds after 25 years of being a band, it's pretty easy to fall into a rut, but they'll be changing things up for the next album. Namely trying to go a little bit faster and make things a bit more challenging!

"We've been doing this for twenty-five years and it's easy to kind of get into a… I hesitate to use the word 'rut,' but you can get too comfortable with your own tempos and your own groove. It gets too easy sometimes. To play faster is more challenging. So that's kind of what we're trying to do — just to keep up our momentum."

So expect a high-speed rock n' roll album from Clutch in 2018, we hope.
