REVIEW// Clay To Ride/ This Town

On their new single the Italian trio make a bid for the arena-baiting big time 

It seems that the hatred for a particular place can bring out the very best in a band, and none more so than Italian trio Clay To Ride.

Taken from recent second album Glass Vessels, This Town "represents the union between rage against the barriers that can stop freedom of thought and hope for a changing", and it's this rage which fuels the tracks anthemic arena rock.

Combining colossal riff and thundering drums,  the band channel the arena-baiting likes of Mallory Knox and Deaf Havana.

Frontman Stefano Satori's lung-busting vocals are almost poetic as he asks "Is this the country for old men?", suggesting the town in question isn't short of inspiration.

It results in a stadium straddling sound that begs to be screamed back at them by thousands of frenzied fans, it won't be longs before Clay To Ride are out of this town for good.
