Dynamite! Clutch are back and challenging our thoughts on the powers of psychic ability with their new single and video for "X-Ray Visions." The band just debuted the video via Billboard in the U.S. and they take viewers inside the lab for an up-close look at psychic experimentation.

In the video (watch above), frontman Neil Fallon proclaims that "psychic warfare" (also the title of the band's new album) is real, as various subjects undergo the testing of their psychic powers. The band members had some fun with the clip as they all appear in the video as well, with frontman Neil Fallon leading the way as a mad scientist.

"It was method acting, I guess," chuckled Fallon to Billboard. "We're not a band that's at all comfortable acting in a video. That's probably the most acting we've ever done in a video. We're very comfortable with [director] Dan [Winters]. We've known him since 1993, really, but we feel most comfortable when we have our instruments in our hands."

Speaking about the more conceptual tones of the songs on Psychic Warfare, Fallon adds, "The lyrics are more narrative than probably any other previous Clutch album. There's more action that happens. When I write a song there's usually some vague movie that's running in the back of my mind that the music has evoked and I try to bring that to words. I never want to be heavy-handed and say, 'This is a rock opera' or a concept record, because that can be oppressive. But I like lyrics and music that sound cinematic, because I like escapism in rock 'n' roll."

Look for Clutch hitting the road in the coming months to support their new album. The band has a mix of festival appearances, headlining dates with support from Corrosion of Conformity and The Shrine, and select dates with Mastodon and Corrosion of Conformity.
