Winter is coming, and even just thinking about it depresses me: the cold weather, the lack of sunlight, the onslaught of cloying Oscar movies, the one year anniversary of our country electing a rancid clementine as our new leader… the list of things to dread just goes on and on and on.

But if anything makes me feel better about all the inevitable shittiness, it’s this: new tour dates for Clutch with The Devin Townsend Project and The Obsessed. Paint me green and call me Gumby, that is a killer line-up. Three bands… all great… and all completely different from each other. Dio bless whomever put this package together.
