message: i vote 'no',each member should have his own page with links to the band*(like the beatls)
I also vote to not merge. Seems to be enough info to merit a separate article.
This was a month ago, I'm removing the tag. Emmaneul (Talk) 01:14, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

message: in reference to that thing about the calgary flames player's band. grinder is not a hockey position.  i'm not changing it cause i suck at wiki. but that's full of crap. i played for 10 years, it's wrong

:I know nuts about hockey, but a little search brings up a few mention of the term grinder used in hockey speak. It seems not so much a position but a style of play. I removed the sentence since it's not important to the article. --Dodo bird 07:15, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Grinder? 

message: I updated the page, added the band infobox and cleaned up the tables and other info.  My first wiki edit so I probably did some stuff wrong.  Didn't really change much of the info that was already there, but someone needs to pad it out some more. Xep 07:40, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

message: Personally I'd characterise a good proportion of their lyrics (the humorous ones) as "entertaining scifi/fantasy themed shaggy dog stories" 71.233.165.69 08:56, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: Stuph, one unreferenced quotation doesn't really warrant a copyvio tag, unless I'm missing something. Anyway, I moved the ref from the temp page to the main article, removed the template, and deleted the temp page. Nufy8 21:30, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  copyright violation 

message: I removed all the nonsense about some of the Strange Cousins songs being played at this venue and in that city and replaced it with a blanket statement about the songs being played live before the album was recorded, since Clutch played pretty much all of them before going into the studio.

message: :Image:Clutchlogo.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Clutchlogo.jpg

message: Big time rewrite needed me thinks. 9 albums in and the information is so limited and cluttered it's quite shocking. I'm sure there are plenty of Clutch fans out there who would be interested in this one.Gedmundo (talk) 02:04, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Rewrite

message: Jaden Adrastos Callaway is currently listed as a past member of Clutch. Unless he did more than just fill in periodically or appear as a special guest, the listing is probably inaccurate. Does anyone know for sure? (By comparison, Mick Schauer is definitely a "past member" because he was involved full-time for two entire albums and the associated tours.) --DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 20:05, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Decided to look into this a little more. On June 15 an IP-only editor added Callaway and said in the edit notes "According to an interview with MTV Niel Fallon stated Jaden Callaway (cousin) was breifly in the band when they first formed in Maryland." If this is true it is non-notable because it is not documented anywhere, not even at the official Clutch website. All that can be found via a simple web search of <"Jaden Adrastos Callaway" + "Clutch"> are a few recent social media posts saying Callaway was once in Clutch. If the interview with Fallon really happened, Callaway may have only been a start-up member for a few minutes about 21 years ago, but someone (probably himself) continues to talk about it in modern social media. Move on, sir. I am removing the name from the "past members" section. --DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 19:36, 26 November 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Jaden Adrastos Callaway 

message: As a band that has contributed 9 studio albums and 10 singles, and is classified under 6 distinct genres (hard rock, funk metal, blues rock, stoner rock, southern rock, and hardcore punk), I'd like to see a further, more-in-detail distinctions on which of their work are, let's say, stoner rock. 
As far as I have understood, not all works of Clutch go under "stoner rock". Jayaguru-Shishya (talk) 18:43, 2 January 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Genre: stoner rock 

message: If someone can find a reliable source other than a forum post, Clutch's song "Mercury" from Blast Tryant is used in the game APB:Reloaded. Just thought i'd put that out there.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sir hobbes3 (talk • contribs) 03:04, 30 July 2014 (UTC)
