Clutter (album)

Clutter is the debut studio album by Laki Mera. In December 2007, prior to its official release on CD in April 2008, the band made the album available for free download via their record label, Rhythm of Life's website.[4] The album was critically well-received, getting a 5 star review from The Herald,[5] and the risky strategy of offering it for free proved beneficial to the band, providing them with exposure and increasing their audience.[6]
