Clatter -- "House of Trouble" ALTERNATE VIDEO

[FriendlyShadow1]

Fucking awesome!

[Darknessfalls32]

D: Rickenbacker... So amazing. 

[barret707]

Holy crap i wasnt sure what to expect when i saw just a girl on bass and a guy on drums. turns out i should have expected to have my brains blown :D

[anthonydmcgee]

Oh my God. Fresh.

[ChantellCara]

There way better live(:

[TheAlexkru]

that is one busy bassline

[locate77landmark]

nice sound

[BIBImovies]

KICK ASS!!

[111661116]

Are you still looking for a drummer? I live in Zephyrhills. I've been playing drums and percussion for 9 years, and have studied privately for 8 years. 

[hecbiz75]

Bass + Drums = AWESOMENESS.

[AdamBalm13]

OK - I love you.

[clattermo]

@AdamBalm13 Haha! Do you love Joe, Amy, or the band in general?! >;-D

[jadrums]

Wow!! Amazing tune, what a great sound. I can't wait to see & hear more.

[atzyme]

wow!!! amazing. sweet bass tone.

[clattermo]

@atzyme Thanks! :) I enjoy your playing, too!

[gedyx]

Amy play some Caravan on bass!!!

[ZacTheOneAndOnly]

when I started my two piece I tried not to listen to the only other one I knew (DFA1979) then I somehow stumbled across every bass and drums duo on the planet, it's nice to hear the set-up steer away from thrash, the musicality on this rocks, Nice pipes, sick tone and that guy can totally hit those drums

[Yetylebowsky]

Amazing Song and sound! You Rock! I was wondering, what kind of distortion are you using? Pedal or Head? Thanks

[clattermo]

@Yetylebowsky Thanks so much! I get my distortion by splitting my signal and running one line into a Mesa/Boogie Dual Rectifier half stack. Sounds massive!!

[retardrepellent]

@clattermo Clatter, do you remember meeting a man and woman named Joseph (Joe) and Christina (Christie or Tish) at a Columbia gig a few years back? This is their son, and your music freakin' amazing!!

[clattermo]

@retardrepellent Thanks!! Where do you guys live?? We think we know who you are. ;)

[madcelt1]

nice ric bass

[HFsrj]

Great song. Real bass treat !

[PicoGigaMan]

I wonder if she uses the Rick-o-socket to split the signal. One channel distorted and the other channel clean bass. If so interesting application...

[clattermo]

@PicoGigaMan You know, it would be so much less complicated if that worked for me! Unfortunately, I tried it and didn't like the sound I got. So, I have to split my signal 3 ways with A/B/Y boxes. It's a nice, flexible method for getting the sound I want.

Thanks for watching!

Amy / Clatter

[PicoGigaMan]

@clattermo That will work. I'm a trail and error person too. Trying to find what works best.

[piewacket]

wow !!!! five stars !!! '' ***** ''

[Will0b0i0am]

Clatter is my new favorite band... you guys are an inspirations to bassists everywhere... and you have great taste in basses. Love the 12 string.

[bruxabaratuxa]

Amazing!!!!The "Rick" tone is like a razorblade!!!

You have a fan in Brasil!

[DesolationRow0]

one of the best Ric tones ever.

[then00best]

one of the best voices i've heard in rock music

[sonnetg]

Absolutely brilliant. Enjoyed the bass playing too.

[clattermo]

Thanks! Enjoyed your playing, too!

[gedyx]

Amy excellent bass playing in limelight and monarch

[clattermo]

Thanks!!

[woodysg2]

Still lovin this tune and video!

[rebob59]

[d3lw1n]

I'm really starting to like this band, kinda reminds me of Rush and Tool...

[StevePratt00]

very cool tune!

[theydrummdurhead2muc]

Great stuff indeed man. Kudos to you.

[nirvanaispus]

Great stuff - not enough praise can be stated - what a GREAT full sound

[Tarrbot]

Found this looking at Rickenbacker bass vids. My 4003S/5 in JetGlo always watches them with me. =)

Love the sounds. Just bought 2 of your CDs.

I can't wait for them to get here.

[chadpijudisimo]

incredible...that girl...the bass...her voice.,..the drums...everything!

[ScalerWave]

Holy Cow!

Amy's got Krazee Mad Skillz!!

[footcandy]

I'm back again to watch this.. I really like that bass groove. I'd love to hear a high quality version of this.

[fretlessbass26]

Almost 4000 views.

Its a start. :-)

Clatter rules !!!

[anderson1939]

Unbelieveable , I've seen few chicks played the bass .... but this chick can the bass as wicked any other ! 5 stars!

[fretlessbass26]

glad you liked it.

these two don't get nearly the exposure they deserve. I hope you'll send it to someone.

[Skytrooper82d]

Great tune/vid...thx for sharing, bro.....~S~

[mikeadk]

Come to Nashville (The End perhaps?)

[sevencarpileup1]

WOW you guys sound like tool and your really good.

a bass tab would be great

[SamTadNewman]

That's a really cool bass riff!

[rws10923]

Jesus christ you guys are good!

[soapyshoes]

The bass playing is sick, and so is the drumming, but i think you guys might need a singer :(

[iloveasiangirls]

:O

Does any1 happen to have tabs to this amazing song?!!!

[trunkeight]

Wow! who needs guitars!!! awesome!

[whitespark99]

i like this video better than the other one.

[whitespark99]

[fre4dflame]

She would be the perfect girl for John 5. What a good one on da fuc.king bass

[chinamaiden]

[ELVXIM]

AWESOME GUYS, KEEP IT UP!!

[soulfulpianochic3931]

Sick!!!!!

[fretlessbass26]

I showed a good friend of mine this vid last night. He told me he was "Blown away."

[soulfulpianochic3931]

THIS CHIC IS SICK! WOW!!! Take the breath away in 10 seconds... yesss bring more of this Fret!!!!

[mtntopcowgirl]

Hey fretlessbass26..... Thank's for sharing :) they are sick!

[Hollayla]

Speechless...thanks for referring this to me...who needs a man to play the bass!!

[Galdasturis]

So awesome!

[Galdasturis]

By the way I think this version of video is better.. :)

[steverok67]

This is great.

[Smicz]

WoW!... I have been working on a rock project with percussion and DBR Stick, we have been thinking about just keeping it a 2 piece. I did a little research on line and found this GREAT band! Thanks for the inspiration!..Cant wait to get the CD's

[clattermo]

Hey, so glad you stopped by! Best of luck with the 2-piece band idea -- you should definitely stay a duo!! We're honored that we could be an inspiration.

Amy and Joe

[Eliass346]

Ricks have the most beautiful sound of any bass guitar ive ever heard.

[clattermo]

I have to agree with you there!! <:-)

Amy

[thehumancarp]

nice job! you're like the opposite of white stripes... female vocals guy on drums guitar instead of bass

[iwasgod6]

Nice bass, got a crazy amp set up i saw in that other video. Keep it up I gotta get me a Ric. Its not every day you see a girl playing a bass.

[fretlessbass26]

what do you call/ where do you get those tube looking drums on the left side of the kit???

[clattermo]

Those are called octabans. Technically mine are a half set (the low-pitch four) since a full set is 8 drums (hence the "octa"). All 8 are the same diameter -- 6" -- it's the length of the tube that gives them their pitch. My are made by Odery (from Brazil) and are wooden. Tama invented them and still offer them in fiberglass; Pearl and Peace both make aluminum ones. I believe DW now offers them, too. --Joe / Clatter

[fretlessbass26]

thanx man.

[z1chuckster]

Cool video...I love music and nature together...Sweet rickenbacker bass ! Drummer rocks...5 out of 5 !

[COLUMBINE1818]

This is absolutely amazing. I love the bass line and the drummer is fantastic. The vocals soar over all that instrumental awesomeness to make it quite fantastic. What you have is truely unique and I admire your talents and creativity.

[Padawantan]

O_o awesome!!! f+!!!

[footcandy]

Oh man that rocked! Awesome, and I didn't even miss the guitar.

[NickSegal]

What do you do with the pick after you stop strumming? please reply.

[clattermo]

Hey Nick, I actually don't use a pick, I just strum with my fingernails. Makes it a lot easier!

[NickSegal]

Yeah i noticed after watching one of your other videos. :D Thanks for replying though.

[fretlessbass26]

you said that your always looking for new sounds so that you can expand your sound. have you ever played or considered playing a fretless bass?

[clattermo]

Yes, actually I bought a fretless Ric about a million years ago and just haven't devoted the time to learning how to play it properly. I want to be sure I do it justice!

[fretlessbass26]

i did just the opposite. i bought a fretless warwick alot like the one jack bruce from cream used to play, knowing full well that i had not even the most basic knowedge of how to use it. but slowly but surely i am getting better. i can only do the most basic scales and stuff but i practice everyday.

Do you/would you ever come near phoenix, AZ on tour?

[NickSegal]

I don't like the vocals. But you are a rapist at bass (that's a complement). Strumming on a bass, unusual.

[obey9870]

wow, im really surprised how much i liked that. that was great!

[Ditzybrat101]

she runs the bass through an amplifyer that allwers her to play guitar and bass a thte same time.

2 man bands are awesome, for example the White Stripes.

[COLUMBINE1818]

Ditzybrat101 If you like two man bands check out Shelter Red.

[MyFatCatIsOld]

I did'nt know it was possible to do this with only bass and drums, it sounds pretty god

[TheNeaL777]

Have y'all ever thought of adding a guitar player? If so, I'm glad you came to your senses! :D

[nirvanaispus]

It is so refreshing to listen to this great duo as compared to truly pathetic boring guitar bands such as the worst bands of all time - Nirvana and Pearl Jam

[usetheforce14]

Man, it's amazing how much you can do with a bass guitar. I hope to one day hold half as much skill as you've got...I love this song's riff!

[ibanezbasSR400]

Great sound, and great scenerie :)

Greetings :)

[RedSystemAlex]

OMG! =) I'm your fan now ;)

This is AWESOME.

[MechanisticMoth]

Pretty awesome location, and bass playing. The song was a little repetitive, and I think more could have been done on a video standpoint, but it's definitely a great starting off point.

[nickmusiclover]

it was amazing, except for the vocals. i think you should get a guitarist/ vocalist

[chesnut72]

WOW that was great....you guys got it goin on

[scarymonster2010]

Whoa! Absolutely loved it. Wish you both the best. The ric sounds great!

[Adrianrulz]

Speechless! You guys never cease to amaze me!

[idtofdr]

love the bass, you guys rock, keep up the good work, and come out some time k?

~Shane Franklin

[vifrankl]

Joe and Amy rock my world!

There is no doubt Clatter is a

force of and for nature.

[fryBASS]

cool song & vid :)

[lorri37]

Fabulous video, well done, Amy and Joe!

I also blogged it. Thanks!
