We’re big Clutch fans around here, and there’s a related band whose full length release we’ve been eagerly anticipating for quite some time now. They’re called The Company Band. It’s guitarist Dave Bone, Fireball Ministry’s James Rota, CKY drummer Jess Margera, and Fu Manchu’s Brad Davis, fronted by Clutch’s Neil Fallon.
The band released an awesome, yet short EP entitled Sign Here, Here, And Here last year, and today we noticed they quietly slipped two more tracks onto iTunes last week, It’s A Confusing World, and Not Fragile, a Bachman-Turner Overdrive cover.
Just in case you’re not excited already, here’s the opening track from their EP, Company Man:
Hear more on the band’s MySpace.
The band’s long-awaited full length self-titled debut is slated for a November 10th release through the Restricted Release label. The band teamed up with producer/engineer Andrew Alekel, who has worked with Fu Manchu, Bad Religion, Queens Of The Stone Age, and Foo Fighters.
About Skwerl
Kevin "Skwerl" Cogill was taught his first computer programming language by his Mother's marijuana dealer at age ten. His first job involved hustling TicketMaster lines on behalf of a New Jersey concert ticket broker at age fourteen, followed by a job in graphic design shortly after graduating high school and trade school simultaneously in 1998. He built his first website in 1996 or so, and continues to do things the way they should be done, rather than the way everyone else does. He's a bit of an asshole, but he's fiercely loyal to fellow fans of good music.
Born and raised in Philadelphia, Skwerl now resides in Los Angeles.
