I saw them a couple weeks ago with Kyuss and MonstrO at the House of Blues in New Orleans. Me and my friends were the first ones to get to the venue because we were early, and we got to hang out with their bassist out front when he stepped out to smoke a cigarette. Cool dude. Awesome band.
why does this have 24k views while justin bieber has millions? These damn 13 year old girls are ruining music. I'm glad there's a band in the 2000's that can make songs that drive a sword up pop's asshole
Mastodon new album is great. But personally I love there older body of work if you listen to their Remission album its like they were ten times heavier back then. Plus there first two albums have some of the best instrumentals.
@acaserogue01 Now I'm just expressing my opinion here, but in 20 years? The Sword is good, REAL good, don't get me wrong, but what about Mastodon? Falconer? Talent often hides in The Underground :D
@Zasalamel49 idk, I saw Mastodon live a few years ago, and maybe they were drunk or something, but they were pretty bad. I can never get into a band after a poor live show. I will admit, Holy Grail is pretty awesome though.
@acaserogue01 haha, yea, that sounds like Brent. I can understand, when an artist performs live, people see what their like. If they perform poorly, than that leaves a bad impression of them.
The first time I heard of the Sword it was on Tony Hawk's Project 8 soundtrack. They had my personal favorite song, Iron Swan, and ever since then I can't get enough of em! I fucking love this band and I always will. LONG LIVE THE SWORD!
@usmcpost I started listening to Mastodon when they first started cranking out records in 99 and they were kick ass but now that they've become massive metal superstars they've gotten worse and their music has changed completely. I want the old Mastodon back, like the time of their Leviathan album.
@666Sneakerpimp But you have to admit, Crack The Skye DID have a good, prog sound to it. Mastodon isn't assailed by the media, either. I mean, yea, RB2 backed them, but do they really suck? Just my opinion, man :)
@kshensley11 funny.. i've never heard anyone say intelligence is bliss....EVER. don't flatter myself? in what way was i flattering myself? aut anyhow, i really don't feel like wasting anymore time talking to you... you can even spell sabbath right, so you're deff. not worth anymore of my time. go try to make yourself feel cool & smart somewhere else dipshit.
i agree wit thrashmetal129 but i just found out their just a new band their first song came out on gh2 freya and the sword has badass riffs im not going to lie bout that
When I first saw the video on the Headbangers Ball I could've sworn this band was like from the 80's or 90's. but I guess not they are still a great band.
To assume a band takes all their influence from one genre is pure folly.
Metallica is definitely in here...in the melody and the riffs. If it pains you to zero in on a band, and you'd rather generalize, you could say that there are thrash elements. I actually found The Sword through looking in the "related" section of one of Metallica's videos.
@VosotrosEterno Yes they do... Are you fucking retarded? They are Progressive Stoner Metal basically, they take Stoner riffs and use Progressiveness to make their music.
I would totally say that Thrash is in there if it was, regardless of whether or not you like Metallica. I will give you this though, I admit they do sound a little bit Thrashy, but it's more on the galloping and the kind of chugging guitar.
Calm down a sec, the "no they don't" was in relation to the related videos part, sorry for the misunderstanding, I should've clarified.
And that's all I meant by hearing the thrash in it, and I will admit that it's not on every Sword song too. It's just that sometimes, you can really hear it well. Prog is in there for sure.
At least we can both agree that the band is good...I'm just trying to tell you that they pull from multiple influences including ones you don't like
Poes cool.
