Fierce Competition

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.
