CLUTCH Frontman Neil Fallon to Guest on VH1 Classic's "That Metal Show" This Saturday Night! #metal
Neil Fallon speaks with Bonnie Kenaz-Mara (AKA: ChiIL Mama) for ChiIL Live Shows Clutch has been one of our favorite, literate alt-metal bands for decades! We own almost all their albums and our kids have grown up belting out Clutch. It was a high point of our year to score an interview with Neil Fallon. He spoke with us about Earth Rocker, beard bands, inspiration, weird lineups, name origins and more. He even contributed to our long running video series on How Creatives Parent & How Parents Create for ChiILMama.com Thank to the commenter who said "Finally, the interviewer is not an idiot." You made my day.Clutch is getting some main stream acclaim at last. But they're no sell outs. Their new material is intense and as amazing as ever!

Clutch 4-12-13 House of Blues, Chicago
We'll forgive them for skipping Chicago on the last tour. Clutch made it up to their Chi-town fans with an excellent, hard rockin', sold out show last Friday at The House of Blues. It was our pleasure to shoot stills and again catch them in action.
The set list was a sweet mix of old favs and new Earth Rocker Material which was extremely well received. Generally it take live crowds a while to warm up to new material, but Earth Rocker is so good, it's contagious. A good chunk of the crowd was already belting out the lyrics and even those who didn't know the new stuff yet were completely into it.
We scored a press preview of the album and it's been in heavy rotation here at ChiIL Live Shows. Clutch is a band that's been ahead of their time for twenty years, but the rest of the world seems to finally have caught up with their March release of, Earth Rocker.
We've been digging their vision & sound since the beginning, but there were comparatively few fans for years. Of course we didn't mind catching them at small venues like the Logan Auditorium and Cubby Bear, when few knew the name Clutch, but we don't mind sharing a good thing. And we love to see creative, talented people get the recognition they deserve.
Clutch has played metal their own way, completely unabashed, for years, not caring whether mainstream metal liked them or they achieved commercial success. Their diehard fans have always grocked the genius and enjoyed their music, despite their genre defying sound. Staying true to their own style and voice is at last paying off for Clutch.
CLUTCH's Earth Rocker
Enters Billboard Charts at #15!
In mid March, WEATHERMAKER MUSIC released the highly anticipated new studio album Earth Rocker from CLUTCH. Earth Rocker entered the Billboard Top 200 Charts at #15 marking the highest Billboard Chart debut in the band's storied career. The album came in at #1 on the Hard Music Chart and #3 on the Independent Album Chart.
In the UK
Earth Rocker charted at #50 on the Top 200 Album Chart, #3 on the Top Rock and Metal Albums Chart and #11 on the Top Independent album chart.
Earth Rocker is continuing to make an impact at radio. The album is #1 at CMJ Loud Rock, and their second single, "Crucial Velocity" was added to SiriusXM channels Octane, Liquid Metal and Faction.
The band has also released a lyric video for "Crucial Velocity". The video was done by animator James Appleton and can be viewed below.
"WEATHERMAKER MUSIC is thrilled with this result. The release campaign began 6 months ago. We executed on our worldwide plan by integrating touring, promotion, retail and digital marketing as well as Specialty/Metal and Active Rock radio campaigns in a perfect sequence. Our partners around the world backed us up. RED Music's extraordinary support made much of this possible. But in the end none of it would have been the same without this great album. CLUTCH is the quintessential American rock band!" says WEATHERMAKER MUSIC Label Manager Stefan Koster.
