Clock Strikes Music WESTERN TOUR PHOTOS UP!

HEAVY HEAVY ROOTS/fon

About Me


“Are Clock Strikes Music punk influenced reggae; or reggae influenced punk?” As hard, fast and heavy as Propagandhi one moment, nothing but reggae groove the next, only to climax into a thundering frenzy that takes a nod from a Neil Young and Crazy Horse jam. These five Ottawatonian hombres have been slaves to the pavement, having taken their ferocious live show across Canada this past summer in support of their new independently released full length. With more touring in the works for 2008, Clock Strikes Music will be cracking out the Coleman stove once again to bring you their new mix of sounds. This live act will surely make you get up and dance!
