White blues rock rarely packs as much soul as Clutch. Over time, the band's sound has gradually evolved from sludgy stoner jams to wiry guitar licks and swinging basslines. Despite the superb instrumentals, frontman Neil Fallon is the true star of the group--he spins wisecracking, politically-charged, sci-fi fables in a delta blues bellow."Electric Worry," off of 2007's From Beale St. to Oblivion, is a track that seems tailor-made to summer cruisin' with all the windows down. A loose remake of Mississippi Fred McDowell's "Fred's Worried Life Blues," it's loaded with searing harmonica, guitar, and organ solos, and a lot of badass. Watch out for the shoutalong chorus: it's catchier than a barbed wire fence.
