Maryland-based rock band Clutch has just released their latest single “Slaughter Beach” alongside an accompanying music video. The new track offers a taste of the group’s upcoming album Sunrise On Slaughter Beach which is scheduled to arrive on September 16 via Weathermaker Music.
Speaking briefly about the song’s lyricism, frontman Neil Fallon offered, “The lyrics for Slaughter Beach were inspired by a late night walk along the southern Delaware Bay,” He continued, cryptically adding, “Odd things happen there.”
The music video was directed by David Brodsky of My Good Eye and showcases the band’s artistic storytelling ability. The video begins with the band members lying in the middle of a sandy, seemingly desolate area; almost dystopian in nature. Later on in the video, a gigantic horseshoe crab destroys what appears to be a factory.
The band is set to tour alongside Helmet and Quicksand this fall. The trek will kick off with a show in Toronto, Ontario, Canada at Rebel Club on September 13 . The bands will then travel through Massachusetts, New York, Maryland, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Alabama, Tennessee, Georgia, Florida, Texas, Oklahoma, California, Nevada, Idaho, Oregon, Washington, Utah, Colorado, Missouri and Iowa. They will close out the tour with a show in Chicago, Illinois at Concord Music Hall on October 16.
