The Watchmakers In Clover

PHRASE [verb-link PHRASE, PHRASE after verb]
If you say that someone is in clover, you mean that they are living a luxurious and comfortable life.

The Watchmakers are in clover. They are the luxury psych band, here for your fun and joy. The Watchmakers are a crate of rum. Crack open and let the good times roll.

Their back catalogue features ‘Kiss The Sun’ and ‘Stairway To Your Mind’, two of the best Manchester singles of the 21st century. I’ve said it before but these songs would slot in right after ‘She’s Electric’ at 2 AM on a Friday night out.

Now The Watchmakers are back with ‘Clover’ and they still have it folks, they have the power to lay down a groove as relentless and powerful as a diamond tipped drill. They still have the power to throw out a chorus that makes you sweaty just thinking about it. “Speak as one”; The Watchmakers preach unity in the temple of dance, “Let your sun be your shrine”.

One day we will go to gigs again. The Watchmakers will play again. They will smash it again. They will be the party band of psych again.
