Iron claw “Clawstrophobia”

I have been wanting to post this song for while. I heard of this band, and song, from a Volcom demo. I remember the demo was just about to start. I was in my way out to grab some beer when I’m y way to y car I hear this grimy, classic rock sounding song. I was really digging it and hopefully puled up Shazam and held my phone up to try and snag the song. I figured I was too far away or the song was too obscure for Shazam to notice. But to my surprise the song and artist popped up. “Clawstrophobia” by Iron Claw. I got in my car and pulled up the song. From there I was hooked. To my surprise, upon researching the band, I found that they have actually been a band since 1969! They just have always flown under the radar. "Clawstrophobia" comes from there self-titled album. When you start listening to the album one this is very clear...the production is terrible. The songs are muddy and just not recorded very well. However, good craftsmanship and exceptional songwriting prevails
