Tomorrow, May 10th, sees the release of the deluxe reissue of the classic CLUTCH album, Blast Tyrant. This exclusive 2 disc set includes the original Blast Tyrant album as well as the Basket of Eggs bonus CD which includes acoustic versions of Clutch classics as well as new tracks that were recorded exclusively for this project.

Weathermaker Music recently added more bonus value to Clutch's new deluxe Blast Tyrant 2CD set, in the form of a collector's edition vinyl Worm Drink bumper sticker.

The item was designed in the likeness of the Worm Drink character image that appears within Blast Tyrant's 'Atlas of the Invisible World', which is also available inside the deluxe packaging.

The collector sticker is the first in a series of Blast Tyrant images, and will be available in every retail copy of this reissue's first pressing. The fan friendly retail price of the double disc set, which also features Clutch's Basket Of Eggs bonus CD, will remain $15.98. The onsale/retail date for this package is May 10th, but fans can now pre-order Blast Tyrant at the band's online store.

In conjunction with the album release, AOL Music is currently hosting a full album listening party of the entire Basket of Eggs project with select tracks from the original Blast Tyrant release. It can be streamed at this location.
