5.0 out of 5 stars Clinic marches into America, April 2, 2002

This review is from: Walking With Thee (Audio CD)

It was if it came to me in a dream. I awoke one eveing last week, to witness Clinic on MTV2. I was visiting Boston, from Wisconisin, and had never seen such a great video at home. Or wait, I hadn't seen such an excellent video in ten years. The song was "distorions" form clinic's 2000 album, "Internal Wrangler." I bought the c.d. the next day, listened to it all day. The next day I bought "Walking with Thee." I haven't stopped listening to it. I can't help to compare the band to RAdiohead, Modest mouse, and the Velvet Underground. It is all there, The Beatles. This is woking class British rock at its recent best. I think Clinic diagnoses ThomYorke. I guess they are his favorite band and I don't blame him. Move over Thom, now they too are my favorite band. Check out their website cliniconline.org, and look at the pictures, these guys are nuts. It is like the cover of "Hey Jude" mixed with Pink Floyd, only smarter and more distant. I am talking about the one with the four of them in front of the pyramid. So enough about the band and what they seem to be like. Check them out for yourself, a must need for anyone that isn't down with the sickness, or sick of crummy music, and want to take a pill with some serious substance, buy this record, and their other ones. This band is definately going somewhere. Hopefully they will be back in the states soon.

4.0 out of 5 stars just what is this?, June 1, 2004

They sound like a mix of Velvet Underground and Frank Zappa's "Freak Out". Clinic has one of the most original sounds going today- by far. There's no middle ground here, you will either love or hate this album. I just happen to fall into the former.

3.0 out of 5 stars read three as 3.5 please, October 21, 2002

"stary001" (champignon) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Walking With Thee (Audio CD)

had this been the first album they released, it would get a screaming 5 stars for breaking out of the 'i wanna make new rock' mold

as it stands, they get three and a half because while this is a good album, it is just like internal wrangler, the sounds, the beats, incomprehensible lyrics with the occasional sigh, the LENGTH for crying out loud. . . if i was a music snob, i would give 'em two stars for being stunningly unoriginal here

in short, they created good music ala internal wrangler, and if you enjoyed it and want more, get it. maybe we really want to hear more and more of the same stuff.

chief complaint: new trend in music is short little albums. this must stop. immediately. i will not pay twenty bucks for 40 minutes of entertainment, no way. but this could actually explain the lack of departure from the clinic 'sound' as two 35 minute albums about equals one full length, so maybe i am being a bit harsh. . . nah

sidebar not related to rating here:
i was so excited to see these guys a couple of weeks ago that i was bouncing off the walls, then they played for like 40 minutes. . . including encore. the opening bands had longer sets. what a sham. my clinic fixation has waned.
