Overview
Pitchfork is the debut EP by American rock band Clutch, released on vinyl 7" & 12" in October 1991 only in the US.
Recording and release
There was the standard black vinyl pressing of the album, in 7" & 12". It also had a gold and a clear pressing (both rare), plus some misprinted versions, all only numbering in the 100s. It was released on the now defunct label 'Inner Journey Records'.
The 12" version had the extra track "Pile Driver", which would be released again on the EP Impetus, the reissue of Passive Restraints, their second EP. The tracks that form the EP were eventually reissued on the compilation album, Pitchfork & Lost Needles, which released in 2005, making it nearly 15 years since most people had heard the songs.
Mark Stanley and Scott Crawford also played guitar on the album and would both collaborate with the band again in later years.
