More On The Clamps & ‘Megamouth’
The Clamps is a three-piece speed-stoner rock ‘n’ roll band formed in Bergamo, Northern Italy, in 2012. Made up of former members of local punk, metal and alternative rock bands, The Clamps started to hit the road a few months later for plenty of shows in Italy and Europe, where they shared the stage with bands such as The Sewergrooves, Nashville Pussy, Pontiac, Valient Thorr, Wild Eyes, Valley of The Sun, Black Tusk, and more.
The Clamps squeeze stoner, speed rock, punk and rock ‘n’ roll into a no-frills fat fuzzy sound, and their shows are pure energy only. Their debut album Deadly Kick For A Fat Fucker was released in 2013 through Go Down Records, followed by Blend, Shake, Swallow in 2017 on Italian powerhouse Heavy Psych Sounds.
Their new album, Megamouth, reflects post-pandemic anger. Composed between 2021 and 2022 and recorded in mid-2023, it features ten hard-charging tracks dripping with fat-fuzzy guitars, cheeky pumping basslines and furious drumming.
Megamouth consolidates The Clamps’ well-recognizable high-adrenaline energetic sound squeezing rock ‘n’ roll, stoner and speed rock into a solid track list that will make you jump on a car, turn the volume up and push the damn gas like a mother fucking drag racer from the seventies. Then you stop at a gasoline station, hail to Lemmy, share a couple of pints with Hellacopters and tell Fu Manchu to pay the bill!!
Actions speak louder than words, and what The Clamps love is action!
