I was lucky enough to hang out with this guy at the weekend after the Hugh Cornwell gig. His drum chops are original,fantastic really, and he is a super cool guy!
Clem was wired up for a university project recently to see how much energy and stuff he emits during a gig. The result was that he used as much energy as a premiership football star in a 90-minute match. Check out a video of "Dreaming" and you'll see why he has been the best (and noiseiest) drummer for over a generation. The man is a living legend.
@unlikeanyotherhuman Seems DW rule now. Such a shame, but if you look at what DW can offer it's no surprise. Premier are becoming also rans these days.
see Clem play at Blondie Concert Hatfield & Cambridge 2010 and he is on top form, met him after the gig in Cambridge and although he said he was fu**** he didnt look it,awsome drummer respect to this Drummer he is one of the very best.
What does Clem mean when he says "if we do the record we're going to have to do some stuff?" Is he implying that Blondie is going to record another studio album?
a brilliantly busy drummer

There is a new album being planned/recorded now apparently. Clem's got much work with others though at the mo, so perhaps this accounts for a delay.
