I don't have a great way to rate this album, so I'm just going to write whats in my gut right now.
And thats the best way to see Earth Rocker, less as an album to be reviewed, and more of an album to recharge your Shamanistic batteries. Its less sonically ambitious, you get the impression Clutch had enough of being artsy and just wanted to crack skulls, but the lyrics are still as on point as usual, there just isn't harmonicas and organs en mass (there are some).
Definitely check out:
1. Mr. Freedom
2. D.C. Sound Attack
3. Nah you know what, check out the whole god damn thing
4. Gone Cold (Acoustic)
I'd give it a 5, but I like harmonicas and organs. If there were a 4.5, I'd give it a that.
