News : Clutch Touring In 2016 With ‘Psychic Warfare Tour’

By on September 28, 2015

After a slew of shows in Australia since their first trip here in 2006, US stoner-rockers Clutch will be returning to Australian shores in 2016 for their biggest round of shows to date. The band will be touring in support of their newest record, ‘Psychic Warfare’.

Clutch will be joined on tour by old-school Aussie punk rockers, Cosmic Psychos, who this year released their sixth studio album, ‘Cum The Raw Prawn’.

Presented by Weathermaker Music and Wildfire Agency, tickets are on sale now via the usual outlets.

Clutch have been pushing the boundaries that define rock n roll since they met and started jamming back in high school. Eleven studio albums and countless tours around the globe, they have developed a reputation for one of the hardest working, critically acclaimed, and most loved rock n roll bands in existence.

“Clutch are incapable of putting on a bad show, it’s just not possible, their own homebrewed brand of blues-infused rock has more sass than you can shake a stick at.” Pop Matters 2015

Psychic Warfare goes straight for the throat with the first single X-Ray Visions and never lets go. Working again with acclaimed producer Machine, this time in Austin Texas, the concise arrangements that made Earth Rocker so assertive is the same harness for the combustible musical energy on this record.

For 30 years, the Cosmic Psychos have blazed a trail of empty beer cans and busted eardrums around the globe with their quintessential Australian drawl and pounding punk rock songs. With a fan base that includes Pearl Jam front man Eddie Vedder “Live it was always so huge and powerful”, a recent sold out national tour and their sixth studio album, Cum The Raw Prawn out in the world, they join Clutch to open all shows.
