One could say that Clinic’s new album, Do It, has all been done before — by the band themselves, in fact. But that’s not a bad thing. This is not to say that it is a predictable recording either. It is frenetic, curious, offbeat and full of big rock riffs. The band has honed their chops to a point where they really come across even more lucid than before, despite their somewhat unhinged approach.
The quirky “fab four” from Liverpool, England have released four previou... MORE

Clinic has a new album called Do It! coming out in April...and not surprisingly, it sounds very Clinic-ky...with fast, chaotic songs and touching slow ones, everything drenched in reverb. But you know, when Clinic emerged in the late 1990s, they pretty much sounded like no other band. How many times do we expect them to reinvent pop? More of the same = more of the excellent. Enjoy....

Here's a video for the first single, "Free Not Free" off the masked men of Liverpool's fifth studio album Do It (in case you didn't catch it, we're talking about the Clinic). The band release Do It on April 8th via Domino. A tour in support of all the newness from the Clinic hits the US on May 5th at Brooklyn's Music Hall of Williamsburg. Before that they play five stops in their beloved homeland of tea and crumpets.
Do It tracklist:
01 Memories
02 Tomorrow

I was thrilled to bits last Autumn to find Clinic supporting Arcade Fire at Alexandria Palace. It's been a while since I've seen a audience that bemused at a gig for a bands complete set! Anyway, the band's fifth album 'Do It' is released on 8th April 2008, accompanied by UK dates in early April and North American dates throughout May. A little reminder of the masked menace that is Clinic;... MORE

droning vocals amongst an underlying trance-like beat. i dont know what it is, but i go through stages where it seems like all the bands i am recently obsessed with all happen to start with the same letter. a couple of months ago it was 'a', and now i seem to have fallen into the 'c's...check out these songs, in addition to clinic...! fiction - cortez the killer

I saw these guys last night at... the Apple store downtown Chicago. It's was great if not 'er... kinda strange sitting down in a clean computer store listening to Clinic. They have been one of the few modern bands that I REALLY like for a long time now. They are nothing if not consistent. They are like the Ramones of surfy, spooky, spy, brit-pop. Totally stripped down ( I think they only use like 3 or 4 drum beats). But anyway they kick out the hits, double-time. Dig: ... MORE

As I head out to purchase the new Clinic today, I feel compelled to share what can be found on YouTube of the 'old stuff'. If you find yourself easily frightened by Mannequins or are a sufferer of Pediophobia, ignore the following.... MORE

Clinic
Harvest (Within You) EP
Domino Picked up the new Clinic EP that came out recently.
Simply put: It has renewed my faith in the band.
When it comes to rawking your sawks, all three songs are guaranteed. The title track's driving bass line is reminiscent of "Second Line," my favorite Clinic number. The last is pure, straight-up Clinic. Even the woodblock-accented instrumental diddy will get your head boppin'.
The vocals are up front in the mix, the bass is thump... MORE

love clinic with a passion that you can only love something with if you first encountered it when you were a teenager. like all good country grandmothers, mine eventually got a satellite dish, so i saw the video for 'distortions' on one of her fancy music channels. the video was terrible, but that was beside the point. i sat in the recliner and floated in garbled fragility. and so on and so on. their last, Winchester Cathedral, was really disappointing to me, even thoug...
