Oh my god I need this now. Everything sounds amazing so far. I know most people didn't like Show Yourself but I thought it was fun and had some catchy parts, and now I think it'll be even more of a nice outsider song.

It's definitely sounding a lot better than OMRTS - even though I do enjoy that album.


But if that main tritone riff was on Leviathan - it would be crushing.

Really liked Andromeda, i need this record now!

Weirdly enough, Show Yourself is my favorite song so far. It's insanely catchy! :hefdaddy

It really is, I like it a lot. It may not be the usual Mastodon classic or have the crushing riffs of Andromeda but it's different and to my ears very enjoyable still. I think I said it earlier but I'll say it again: I value variety just as much as I value quality of songs.

Lulz at people whinging that Show Yourself is too catchy.

If every album sounded like Remission - it would get boring.

Goddamn you guys who have tickets to see Mastodon this summer. I'm still waiting for them to announce UK dates. I think Mastodon are one of my highest rated bands that I've never seen live!! Must rectify that.

Also, just listened to Hearts Alive and it is definitely one of my fave tunes of theirs, all the  :2metal: it is phenomenal. Just the drumming alone, it's probably my #1 tune on Leviathan!!

Oh hell yeah! Leviathan is a very fine record but to be completely honest, Blood and Thunder and especially Hearts Alive are where it's at for me.

I don't think this has ever been posted here, but this is further proof why Mastodon is one of the best bands active today!

Making of part 5:

:rollin Troy in the bushes. Such a funny bunch...They can do really serious music but they themselves aren't po faced and miserable like a lot of metal bands.

Also that riff at 0:34

This album GON BE GOOD.

I feel like this album will be like classic mastodon mixed with their newer style.

Kinda like how Hardwired to Self Destruct sounded like old Metallica and New Metallica as well.

I had a dream last night that I was playing Guitar Hero/Rock Band with the guys from Mastodon. I was doing vocals to some random song and then we chose to play Blood and Thunder, Troy wanted to jump on vocals so I switched to bass. The controls were all fucked up and backwards though and I couldn't keep up. I failed the song miserably and they all started to get really shitty with me and it turned to a bit of a nightmare where I was legitimately scared for my life  :rollin

My subconscious is super hyped for this new album  :corn

I can't bear metal bands making miserable videos where they're all sullen and dressed in black and SRS.
