Clutch Release Earth Rocker Live Double Vinyl

It’s a somewhat rare between-tour moment for Clutch. They just wrapped up a Fall tour that was their return to the road after frontman Neil Fallon‘s back surgery — they were great as usual in New Hampshire — and it’ll be another month before they’re back out again for the annual holiday tour. The Maryland masters of groove are never really at rest, however, and today they’ve released the Earth Rocker Live double-vinyl, which couples the studio version of their 2013 full-length, Earth Rocker (review here), with live renditions of the same songs, presented in the same order as on the album, recorded earlier this year in the Midwest.

The vinyl’s a limited edition and when Clutch do releases like this, they always go quick, so if you’ve got an order to place, my suggestion is to place it. Here’s the latest from the PR wire:

CLUTCH Earth Rocker Live Double Vinyl Picture Disc – In Stores Now!

CLUTCH’s Earth Rocker Live is now available in stores and online at the CLUTCH Merch Store. This special and limited collectors’ item is a double vinyl picture disc set. The first LP is the studio version of Earth Rocker. The second LP consists of live versions of the same tracks in the same sequence as the original. This is not a live recording of one show. The individual tracks of the live version were recorded at different shows throughout the band’s May 2013 US tour: Houston and San Antonio (TX), Lincoln (NE), Indianapolis (IN) and Fargo (ND). The stunning artwork displays the four Indian heads from the original package in all their colorful beauty: one for each side.

In December, between Christmas and New Years, CLUTCH will be back on the road for their traditional holiday shows. Support on the holiday shows will come from Into Another, The Mike Dillon Band and Lionize. Touring will continue in January with dates set from the 2nd in Asheville, NC to the 19th in Flint, MI. All dates and links to purchase tickets can be found below. The Sword and Crobot will provide support on these dates.

February 2014 will see CLUTCH will head down under to Australia as they take part in the 2014 Soundwave Festival. In addition the Soundwave dates, CLUTCH has confirmed a handful of headlining Australian shows. These shows are set for February 20th in Sydney at The Metro, February 21st in Brisbane at The Zoo and February 27th in Melbourne at Prince Bandroom.

Drummer Jean-Paul Gaster is looking forward to the band’s return to Australia:

“Can’t wait to get back to Australia. It’s been a while… The band is looking forward to the Soundwave Festival as well as the headline dates. We ready to rock any stage Down Under: big or small.”

CLUTCH has confirmed one final date for their January tour. The show will be in Flint, MI at The Machine Shop on January 19th. Tickets for fan club members go on sale tomorrow and to the general public this weekend.

Check the link HERE for your chance to purchase a very limited Earth Rocker Charity Snare Drum signed by the band. Only five of these were produced and 100 % of all the proceeds will go to charity.
