Frontman Neil Fallon commented on the the recording process for Earth Rocker and how it differs from other CLUTCH albums:
"Last minute overdubs are fun. Harmonicas, tambourines (yes, we use those), claps, the odd backing vocal. Recording can be monotonous, so those unintended moments can be a lot of fun. It's kind of like kindergarten music class, but with beer. And sometimes the spontaneity of a last ditch idea breathes a lot of life back into a song that we've been beating up for weeks on end. A looming deadline can be a great muse!"
He continues, "It has a lot in common with Blast Tyrant in that Machine's production techniques are really unique. It differs from Blast Tyrant and a lot of other CLUTCH records in that, overall, the songs are faster and concise."
When asked about how this record how it differs from other CLUTCH releases guitarist Tim Sult added, "As far as the composition of the songs go, this is the heaviest and fastest CLUTCH album to date. ''

Thought I found a leak of this today, but quickly realized it was a fake. Can’t wait to hear this whole album.
Had a review copy of the album on Friday (stream only) and I can say its a belter….The best Clutch album to date, the wait is worth it!
Hey Bob, any chance it’s still streaming?
It sure is GD but you need an account to listen to it….Sometimes the perks of writing reviews is being able to listen to albums long before the release date.
If it’s available via streaming, then shouldn’t it have leaked by now? There are certainly a number of ways to download a stream and at the very least create a copy via the analog hole. I NEED THIS ALBUM NOW!
Thanks Bob, wasn’t sure if it was a review site or a general site. Thanks for the heads up.
