5 out of 5 stars Sex, Beer and Pizza: the only things in life as good as Clutch........2006-02-28

Well, not much to say here. Neil (the bad man with a thousand voices) and company do exactly what the title says: they unleash Pure Rock Fury. Clutch is one of those bands where you can't just listen to two or three tunes off the CD; it demands to be played in its entirety while you and your friends are hopefully partying and freaking out because no band you ever heard in your life jams the way Clutch does. A lot different than the classic Transnational Speedway, but it's still Clutch and every tune is a ten out ten. Don't pass this one up. If you're new to Clutch and want to check one CD out before buying a bunch of them, get Tranational Speedway League first. After that you'll grab every other one: trust me. And don't forget to raise a glass of beer to the live version of Spacegrass on here!

Necrosoul.

5 out of 5 stars pure rock f#@kinfury.......2005-06-10

I've been a huge fan of Clutch for quite a while so my opinion is slightly jaded but .... for the love of Gawwwwd man they ROCK!

Clutch really is a very unique band and although they do revive that 70's hard rock sound it's really and truly something to behold. To me "Pure Rock Fury" is the second coming of Clutch. Their 1st album, "Transnational Speedway" was crunchier and had a big impact on me. The 2nd self-titled was much better, there was a stronger direction and more unique style. The 3rd, "Elephant Riders" was a large departure from the Clutch I knew. Singing, what the hell? It worked and overall "Elephant Riders" is a solid offering but I feel it was a growing pain. Don't get me wrong, I love it, but they didn't seem as surefooted as usual. but...

"Pure Rock Fury" is altogether an entirely different monster, and I do mean monster. The first guitar line kind of sums up the whole album, it's loud, crunchy, precise, and full of energy. "American Sleep" is a solid jam, the musicianship is great as always and Neil seems a bit more solid on the vox.
The second track is definitely the star, a massive assault full hendrix soaked guitar riffs, insane drum fills, tight sure footed bass work, and insane barking vocals full of wit and humor. It's an anthem, really, calling upon those troopers of the CLUTCH army ready to stomp around the pit in their own unique fashion.

From this point the album continues in solid fashion, a bunch of sweet cap'n crunchy hard rock romps, "Open up the Border", "Immortal". Some nice drawn out jams with lots o' rump shaking bass lines, "Red Horse Rainbows" and double geetarr riffage, "Brazenhead". And, of course Clutch always has a couple of those quirky ones, referring to the old red-necked Samuri from "Transnational" on "The Great Outdoors". Along with the head bobbing rap rock funk stew of "Careful with that Mic" which oozes with the groups capability to create music with a kleidoscope of influences. The closer is kind of a two fold punch. "Drink to the Dead" is a nice mid-paced anthem that really gives you the feeling of being in a barroom full inebriated fantasy characters, all swaying back and forth singing about good friends long gone. After that it closes with a live version of the Clutch classic "Spacegrass". If you've ever been to a Clutch show you'd understand why this bonus track is on here. Standing in the crowd awaiting the next song, then you here that bass line you can't help but join in with the rest of the crowd as everyone shouts the lyrics at the top of their lungs.

I can't stress how much I recommend this cd. It's a good time wrapped in plastic. Clutch really do unique Hard rock very well. They are truly an underrated band. They give you the funky head bob with a nice big smile across your face, the solution is so clear.

5 out of 5 stars The title say's it all.......2005-05-29

Being the HUGE Clutch fan that I am it is hard for me to oick a favorite album. This one could be it though. This is a raw, heavy, funky sounding album. Espacially Tim Sult's guitar! My favorite song is "open up the Border" I cannot get enough of the guitar work on that song. Other favorites include; the title track, "Carefull with that mic", "Red Horse Rainbow", "Immortal", and "Drink to the Dead". And the live version of "Spacegrass" is something special! Buy this album. GO SEE CLUTCH LIVE!!!

5 out of 5 stars Outstanding.......2004-04-24

Clutch is one of the only great rock/funk bands around today. I would compare Clutch to RATM, because of their complicated bass lines, outragous guitar riffs, and steady sick drum beats. The vocalist in Clutch is very different then Zach de la roche, which makes Clutch an original band. After "The Elephant Riders" i didnt think Clutch could create anything as great as their former cd, but they pulled it off. Every song has its own unique feel and is great for any music lover. The first 3 tracks are unbelieveable, with very catchy riffs. I also really enjoy the songs "Red Horse Rainbow", "Immortal" and "Drink to the Dead". All of the songs are unique and are great to listen to.
