AMG Review of Impetus

All Music Guide

Earache Records continued clearing their vaults of rarities by re-releasing Clutch's first EP, Passive Restraints, coupled with a track off of the Piledriver 12-inch and a demo of "Impetus." Despite the early recordings, none of these songs are lacking in either production or songwriting, which only serves to make the "Impetus" demo nearly the equal of the studio version...Diehard Clutch fans will want to add this to their collections...
