Mastodon - Iron Tusk & March Of Fire Ants live Download'07

[Toma4449]

@themysteriouscow I could say the same about your grammar.

[pagan1983]

One of the better ways to start a show.

My personal favorite is still Carparthian Forests frontman (I forgot his name) walking up, introducing the band, they start playing, him grabbing an empty pitcher and then starting shit in it, right there on stage. Had an immensely fun time though.

[91gurre]

I actually like how they sing some lines here over how its on cd! Like how he lengthens"till she spills her black bloooood" fking epic!

[TheWatersandwich]

brent always looks so uncomfortable when he sings lol

[bridgfordbill]

greatest verse/riff in all of heavy metal?

[chrisbaboujianbjj]

someone turned the volume up at 0:56

[MetalMattSnyder]

These guy's have been one of my favorite bands since I was very young. I seen the cover for Leviathan and I HAD to check it out. Who knew that an 11 year old would dig this stuff? hahaha

[arvybindra]

@MetalMattSnyder its cos this stuff is tooo awesome! and i started liking lamb of god at the same age lol :D

[keaton121]

i want bill's explorer!!!

[BieberMustDie11]

You haven't heard pinch harmonics till you've listened to Mastodon live.

[IIIIIFlY]

5:21 to 6:08

This is in my opinion the best part in music literature. I did not hear any riff or interlude that I enjoy as much as I enjoy this part.

I just don't know what else to say. I have only got 250 characters left and I am wanting to write an essay.

[thychaos]

@IIIIIFlY yeah, it sounds really cool but its not the most original riff ever. its basically a riff thats been done a thousand times over spiced up a little bit by their technical style.

[KrossPoison1]

@thychaos Who cares? It's awesome.

[sta0005]

1:57. Brent knows exactly how badass he is.

[horriblequin]

they don't play with that energy when they came to Colombia to opening the Metallica 's concert :\

[SMWhit3out]

I don't know why brent trys so hard to sound like satan live lmao

[13Champlin]

Bill is hitting some nasty harmonics.

[thenunchucker]

1:42 !!! 

[Foka1010]

0:43 Bill's look at Brann"you had to start it off so damn fast?!"

[ulaula82]

барабаны в горшек)

[MegaCASUALGAMING]

2:37 wow you know Brent means business when the eyebrows go up ^^ sonisphere next weekend seeing these guys... GUNA BE AWESOME! :)

[thethrols]

para mi la mejor cancion de mastodon........perfect

[Shootark]

Bill needs to sing/scream more cause it sounds fucking awesome!

[CostaEK11]

Bill don't misses a fuckin note, it´s a pillar on stage!!

[DarthSivius]

I love how Brann can be one of the best drummers without needing a drumkit as big as half the stage

[gwarvana]

Fuck it sucks I missed them live awhile back ago when they played with dethklok cause the tix were sold the fuck out! Didn't have money to buy in advanced had to wait till that day cause I got paid >:(

[MrGamerBazer]

@gwarvana beat ur boss he should've understood the importance!

[elxtranjero]

bill level 88 dwarf masterdon

[hatementality]

these songs go together like booze and cigarettes

[rknowles92]

Big up for Brent's extreme meowing!

[crazieassproductions]

Love the part at the beginning.

"Hello!"

[MrPaull1989]

@crazieassproductions if it's good enough to start a conversation, it's good enough for Troy to start a set with :D

[gropim11]

Lol 4:11 sounds like someone kicked him in the balls

[deadredd10]

is it me or does brent kinda look like a metal version of zack galifinakis

[king7299]

@deadredd10 or does zack galifinakis look like a comedic version of brent?...even though the whole band is funny as shit in interviews and stuff

[galatonim]

Well, while Brent is dwarf warrior lvl 80, Troy is tauren hunter lvl 85, damn!

[hojima]

@galatonim ... Shut up.

[sluggar22]

Mastodon > all else

[hampulator]

I just wish he'd put a drum fill in once or twice:}

[Zoddicans272]

@hampulator Don't even.

[reydemagival]

@hampulator what? his play style is all fills, xD. Any more fills and the whole song will be one giant drum fil.

[hampulator]

@reydemagival No shit...it was a joke bro!

[galatonim]

They make me wanna grow a beard and play taurens in WoW

[ShyGuyOfHyrule]

I love how he greets the crowd. "hello." and then the kickassness commences

[captinblueballs1]

4:11 god dam!

[cRazyBassBiTch]

the change over is fecking sweeeeeeeeeet, can't wait to see em at sonisphere

[DrummerSociety]

[chadgarland]

[tsyrlb]

@tetra3000

[MeetTheCryptid]

1:19 '' Slicing her caaamle toeee''

[moretimetokill31]

[tinestifyed]

lol at brent 1:39 when he finds out his voice is gone

[shutupMeg90]

[Camilo2378]

[Direksone]

[TheMilfhunter88]

2 of there best songs

[SubaUba]

Wow, bill sounds like a fucking mammoth 0.0

[FlamSalad]

@SubaUba and Brent sounds like a fucking cat

[Person009]

@SubaUba

Hence the name, Mastodon

[Onedarknight]

@SubaUba aaaaand Brent sounds like a dying cat in heat. No offense to him...I'm in awe that he still pulled it off. These guys are true musicians for sure...

[NotSober100]

@Onedarknight  hahah thats fucking funny man

[iBladeV4L]

@SubaUba You mean he sounds like a Mastodon

[RENN357]

@SubaUba

like a ......MASTODON one might say....

[haircutbob2]

@SubaUba You mean a... MASTODON?

[Draaken123]

@SubaUba And brent like a catXD



[CPRpaintball]

@SubaUba how do you know what a mammoth sounds like

[SubaUba]

@CPRpaintball Imagination my friend

[rockster07]

@CPRpaintball Most likely his mother... lol, jk

[JohnnyLibertine]

@CPRpaintball i never experienced how brutally genious a guitar can sound!

[TheRiffCalendar]

@SubaUba Rather a Mastodon.

[DarthSivius]

@SubaUba Bill doesn't talk a lot, but he does, he sounds like a MASTODON x)

[deusnecis]

@SubaUba you would too if you had to try to mask brent's shitty vocals every night

[benisheadshot1337]

@SubaUba And brent sounds like a fucking pterodactyl:P

[NiMrod8686]

nice randy rhoads drum set :D

[CPRpaintball]

hawefbwaefwaefkasdbfiawebflijb­sdlfjibwaleiubfsldkjfblawiubfl­skdjbfliawue

[DrummingChannel1]

Perros culiaos pencas, Los que editaron esta wea.

[gazzolli]

great music

[Elias199128]

awesome band anyways

[SolaufeinSA]

dem drums!

[Elias199128]

did he scream at 3:02 " Shalom " ??? XD

[217d3]

@Elias199128 sail on

[CPRpaintball]

@Elias199128 nah he screamd Sail On

[TheVotolom]

did brentt throw his voice out?

[lionslicer9999]

@TheVotolom He got sick on tour, but didn't give up his vocal responsibilities during shows and permanently injured his vocal chords. Anything live after 2006 with him screaming sounds very bad.

[lionslicer9999]

@TheVotolom He's also extremely high which plays into it.

[themooseisloose5]

more mics on the drums please

[96joed]

at like 1:39 brent looks over like oh shit guys!

[disturbed2909]

Brann is the bees knees

[SCREAM4VEGENCE]

I think I poped like fifty blood veins when I fucken got into the mother punchen mosh pit!

[youtoober19125]

best version of irontusk ive ever heard

[xph0enixxx]

MONSTROUS!

[driekone]

Brann Dailor is a beast!

[jgrull]

@deadpisgoc and he's still probably worlds better than you'll ever be.

[tps1680]

5:21 and after....amazing!!!

[deadpisgoc]

that drumkit fuckin blows

[youtoober19125]

@deadpisgoc  your mind pussy

[Billyheel]

Bill was the only one that entered stage right. lol. I fucking love Mastodon!

[tassidar86]

I had to listen to shitty fucking pop music at work today!!!!! this is just what I needed to blast that shit out my head! MASTODON RULES!!!!!!!

[gorillawang]

best drum fill ever

[sluggar22]

i love when they play these two songs together live. i call it iron tusk of the marching fire ants.

[DirtyBillClinton]

"Forget it man and get with the countdown. Shake this square world and blast off for kicksville"

[Lifesblood1]

@DirtyBillClinton love it

[bradrick86]

@DirtyBillClinton All I have to say is "DirtyBillClinton" is a kickass screenname. lol

[JohnnyLibertine]

@DirtyBillClinton could u explain the meaning of this phrase? never got the context and meaning

[DirtyBillClinton]

@JohnnyLibertine

watch this video.

watch?v=IF1P6Ris4Ps

the phrase is in the last ten seconds. Now you know where its from. Why did the guys in mastodon use it? Who knows with those guys. but it makes me laugh!

[339194]

"hello" is useially the extent of crowd interaction you get with mastodon, not that that's bad or anything

[ShroomSamich]

look at the way brann handles that ride cymbal at 1:01 what a beast truly one of the best drummers i've seen

[nidhiki12]

@ShroomSamich Speaking as a drummer... you're so right. He is also a jazz drummer playing in a metal band.

[reallybigtbone]

what an amazing performance!

[tegolin]

4:10

Bill needs to scream more in future songs.

[mhaft57]

God damn troy has so much energy out there

[APPLESAUCE50]

1:42 pure epic songwriting love the guitars

[Rock69Addict]

i fucking ♥ this song \m/

[jtack19791]

I love Mastadon. They will always be my "what the fuck did I just put in my ear drums" band. Jesus these fucking lunatics make for exciting times in music.

[deathrib]

Brann Dailor is an absolute master in his field. Mastodon as a whole does nothing but get better!

[lifebayne]

getting tattoos of all the mastodon cover arts, but idk if i can fit them all!

[ahyoubastards]

@lifebayne Make them a conjoined sleeve

[hallstewart]

Braan is astonishing; the whole band is really. Mastodon have gone further into prog than any metal band before and pulled it off brilliantly. 11/10!

[FinderofNemo]

@hallstewart Mastodon aren't really all that proggy.

[funkyshizzle]

@FinderofNemo new album,they even say,is prog

[FinderofNemo]

@funkyshizzle Yeah, but thats only one album compared to their three others.

[funkyshizzle]

@FinderofNemo but there new album is what they describes as them and there influences playing stuff that they enjoy doing like fucking guitar solos

[FinderofNemo]

@funkyshizzle It's interesting that you say that, because from what I've heard about recent concerts the band's in a really bad shape. Apparently they're pretty exhausted of playing the record at every tour and go on stage with very little enthusiam or energy, even when it comes to playing their older tracks. I was a little let down when I heard about this, they've seen better days. Like in this vid.

[funkyshizzle]

@FinderofNemo i guess what they need is a break of the action just to clear your head and stuff but im kinda saddened because im not an imediate fan of there ultra heavy stuff thats why ive warmed to crack the skye but if its not working for them they should do what feels best

[FinderofNemo]

@funkyshizzle I wasn't an immediate fan of the heavier stuff at first either, I liked Blood Mountain a lot more and Crack the Skye when it came out. But it really starts to grow on you if you give it a few solid listens. Remission is actually my favorite album by them right now.

[funkyshizzle]

@FinderofNemo i first heard blood moutain and i was blown away by the drums the just beat up your ears with style,i heard capilarian crest and these drums were just killing it then crack the skye came out and it seemed like brann had devloped a style where his drums sounded simple to listen to but when you see him play hes beating the shit outa his drum kit giving it the best drum sound ive ever heard and that for me is the essences of mastodon,the drums

[FinderofNemo]

@funkyshizzle Well, that and the unique style of guitar playing coupled with harmonized guitar parts.

[roym69]

@FinderofNemo You make no sense! Every band has to play music when they go on tour, and its always a repeat of what they did the night before. What you are commenting on is what you heard from other people. I have seen them 4 times and was blown away each time. They are solid musicians and while at these concerts i never got the feeling of their exhaustion like you have HEARD about.

[FinderofNemo]

@roym69 You act as if I'm criticizing the band or something. 

[TheMilfhunter88]

best mastodon song

[sluggar22]

has to be the greatest band of my generation(born 94').. my main inspiration indeed

[muffinsNsausage]

honestly i don't really like them live, they try to spice it up but they ruin it...

[al30333]

Iron tusk has the fucking best riff ever

[CMunkie007]

Hahaha, I love the way they just run on the stage, say hey, and effectively blow all of those people's minds.

[lifebayne]

blast off to kicksville

[JamesBehrends]

Randy Rhoads tribute drumset!!!!!! fuck yes!

[LessthanJake14]

Is it just me, or does it sound faster than the album faster? Could just be the rush of the song.

[suckmyassitsmells]

damn thats awesome brann has such a small drum set compared to other metal drummers yet he still can do shit that sounds crazy

[ahyoubastards]

@suckmyassitsmells just goes to show that with the talent and practice you can do anything.

[Munx2k7]

but the ride is in an wierd position

[sethcaprai]

the guitarists don't have much stage presence

[thumbvideos123]

@sethcaprai i've thought that too, but you need quite a bit of focus for some of the riffs they do.

[ahyoubastards]

@sethcaprai To be honest I like the dynamic of the band I don't really know of to many other bands where the bassist has the larger presence, aside from like primus and rush, but to each his own right

[Mtlero14]

Mastodon and Lamb of God in the same day... I wish to be born in England... but I'm in Argentina and I'm proud!

Mastodon FUCKING RULES

[SpartanCarver]

So pissed you can't hear Brann's ride cymbal in Fire Ants :(

[duddy74]

bill's voice sounds like a fucking machine

[jeguitar13]

1:00 = Super badass shot. 

[elliott3663]

I like how they come on stage say a quick hello, play the songs and do what they do.. Not all like yeah look at me im Mastodom look how great I am.

Know what I mean?

[lobodie88]

10 years from now they will own the world, damm they made my ears bleed,hahaha,

[Rokitfingers]

dammit, someone smack brent upside the head and tell him to sing good.

[BulletFrenzy543]

*walks on stage* ...Hello! *goes insane*

[NickKentucky]

One of my favorite live performances on youtube.

[RoosteerCogburn]

Check out my channel!

I have the version of Iron tusk with audio clip at the start!!

Studio quality!!

[danielm7987]

saw them live 2 days ago. life changing event. epic greatness

[danielm7987]

what is the voice saying before the music? all i got was take this square world and blast off to kicksville?

[smugoogie]

@danielm7987 "forget it man and get with the countdown take this ..."

[PumaStudios]

@smugoogie Leave this square world and blast off for kicksville

[PumaStudios]

@smugoogie I'm sorry it sounds like he's saying Shake this square world

[smugoogie]

@PumaStudios yes its both he starts with "forget it man and get with the countdown shake(or maybe take most likely shake) this square world and blast off to kicksville

[theuberawesomchannel]

if mastodon has any brutal songs like this on their next album they seriously need to get bill to do more vocals

[jennnnnie]

NOT ENOUGH BILL FOOTAGE :[

[ShroomSamich]

im suprised those amps dont blow up

[DrumBum561]

Mastodon is sex.

[antonioantonio160493]

the most insane song i ve ever heard

[DethmetalUSA]

too much rock for 1 fist

[ChainGangster54]

mastodon,pls don't copy metallica....ok?

[Paradiddler45]

God dammit their artwork is cool.

[Memberotto]

When I saw them live the crowd was going crazy for Brann XD

[synesthesia67]

crazy backup vox

[29ryan49]

4:50, brann is sick, haha.
