Clutching At Straws, This Table Changes Everything. Single Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * *

The image of the table, be it ever so humble or overtly grand, is one of symbolism and deep meaning, it offers a level playing field when interacting in the undertaking of dining, it is the structure that aids performance when working and it is the object in which cards are laid down upon, the representation of honest conversation and a barrier to the awkward response.

The dynamic in a house can alter when a table changes, the grander the table, the more notice you take of it and what surrounds it, the more meaning it garners and as the theatrical stories that Staffordshire band Clutching At Straws suggest, This Table Changes Everything.

Clutching At Straws, Come What May. Album Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 7/10

All the world’s a stage and the sense of theatre can be found in almost every human interaction. For alternative Folk quartet, Clutching At Straws, their debut release of Come What May is a set of songs that glide almost effortlessly between the hard hitting conscious thought, of a different way of living and the hint of illusion in what apparently is important in modern day society. The sound of four men whose undisputed talent keeps them pace ahead of the rat race they are urging others to avoid.
