Mastodon - This Mortal Soil

[Thonhaugen]

This Mortal Soil and Sleeping Giant is Mastodons best songs in my opinion!

[Marcmaceff1996]

I'm really begining to like these guys. I'm sensing a trip to Glasgow in February.

[METALMILITARY]

holy fuck this song is mind blowing

[kinggobula]

lol fanboys

[TheKyjeremiah]

not their best song or most well known song but my personal favorite

[heavymetalismystory]

fuck it all one of the best songs of new century

[dw472009]

Like sex for your ears.

[BostonPK]

EPIC guitar riff is EPIC... drums are nasty too. Screw it, everything about Mastodon is Fuckin Amazing!

[Fett52]

This is far from their best song...it is pure mastodon however, and the opening riff is legendary.

[snowturtle911]

eh. its all right. im not a metal guy (im a shoegaze and grunge kind of guy) so i really dont know what good dejent is. but its different than all there other stuff. which is good.

[StreetSoldier88]

@snowturtle911 What? Mastodon isn't Djent.

[snowturtle911]

@StreetSoldier88 pretty much, for the most part. grove metal, djent its all in the same category...SUCK!!!

[StreetSoldier88]

@snowturtle911 Your category is faggotry, thats what you are.

[snowturtle911]

@StreetSoldier88 Oh murrr! faggotry? well if im a faggot then your a biscuit eating, cousin effing bigot. homophobic retard.

[StreetSoldier88]

@snowturtle911 Calling you a faggot doesn't make me a homophobe you fucking retard.

[snowturtle911]

@StreetSoldier88 tehe. your throwing stones at a troll. that makes you the retard. hope your holidays where good love;D *kisses and winks*

[StreetSoldier88]

@snowturtle911 LEARN. ENGLISH.

[snowturtle911]

@StreetSoldier88 wow, you replied really fast. hope your not this fast in bed my sweet pea. ;D *kisses*

[osirisskaters]

I don't think its possible for mastodon to write a bad song

[joethatguyfromlife]

@osirisskaters completely impossible mate

[MrGamerBazer]

@osirisskaters ye i know even just looking at their instruments causes instant awsomeness!

[lashinthemighty08]

who needs 4/4 beats anyway? mastodon says lets knock it up to 17/4 ha. good shit

[4nimalidad]

I love this song!!! :B

[steelerjenn]

Whatever u all said.. shut up.. this song is perfect... along with just bout everything they have ever come out with.. so shut up

[jossy2112]

I don't know about the post above...But this song is far one of THE best songs by Mastodon.

[JESSICALAMA963]

So good <3

[oneskater113]

i like this song a lot until they go up 1:10 and of course the harmony is good. Not close to mastodon's best in my opinion.

[oneskater113]

[missycontrabandmk2]

my fave part of this song is @ 3:38-4:03 but the whole song is good :)

[skidoometal]

This album destroyed my mind when it first came out. Now im reminiscing toatally awesome

[akathasamurai]

So they just started streaming "Curl of the Burl." If you don't like Black Tongue, then you probably won't like Curl either. . . But that's okay, bc they had a DAMN GOOD run.

[lifebayne]

@akathasamurai What are you saying about "they had a good run?"

[akathasamurai]

@lifebayne Basically I'm saying that based on what we've heard from it, (Black Tongue & Curl) I think that their best work is behind them. But regardless of how much I end up (dis)liking the hunter, their four "element" albums are untouchable and people are going to talk about them in 10 or 20 years as some of the best metalwork of this past decade.

[ShoveDaddy]

@akathasamurai actually they have five element records, with the hunter finally being released to complete the saga, as the "air" album

[akathasamurai]

@ShoveDaddy I'm not sure where you heard that, but I think it's incorrect. There was an interview where they said that the Hunter doesn't have any concept/ theme.

[akathasamurai]

@ShoveDaddy I'm not sure where you heard that, but I think it's incorrect. There was an interview where they said that the Hunter doesn't have any concept/ theme.

[akathasamurai]

@ShoveDaddy I'm not sure where you heard that, but I think it's incorrect. There's an interview where they say that the Hunter has no concept/ theme.

[MudTide1993]

@ShoveDaddy But there are 4 elements...and the finished the elements with Crack The Skye. The Hunter lacks a concept.

Also, this is by far my favorite mastodon song.

[bartholemeww]

@MudTide1993 there's actually still a missing element.. there isn't an 'air' album, Crack The Skye is actually the 'aether' element..

[MudTide1993]

@bartholemeww Ah really? meh whatever xD

[KA1Z3RTheAmazing]

literally gives me cold chills

[squeezeslemons]

Dunno why everyone thinks this is their best song, I could name 10 better ones right off the bat, though I guess it's your opinion...

[AngusYoungGboy]

@squeezeslemons I think it might be something to do with how it's well proportioned compared to most of their stuff. It is the perfect representation of Mastodon at their song-writing best.

[jonvoightscar14]

@AngusYoungGboy its a great song but i think remission is a all around better album

[diabeticmonkey]

@AngusYoungGboy That and the intro is astonishingly beautiful.

[UnderwhelmingPlywood]

@squeezeslemons It's all subjective. Some think this is there best song, others don't. For me, it's hard to choose because Mastodon kicks fucking ass.

[burntheship]

@squeezeslemons it doesn't matter. all mastodon kicks ass.

[AngusYoungGboy]

@burntheship Haha. Hater :P Personally, I love them. I swear by them. Mastodon are practically my religion now. And may they strike me down with all their might for ever having doubts about The Hunter, which I think is another classic.

[calbax]

@squeezeslemons cool story bro i like this one.

[kevmann92]

wwhy does nobody care about this song i mean its the best song by them

[squeezeslemons]

thank god someone posted this

[grundletreasures]

Thanks for posting this...Been waiting for someone to do it. Cheers.

[SrslyStfu]

Amazing how pleasing on all lvls this song is to my ears

[DallasSkinnyPuppy]

In my somewhat humble opinion, this is Mastodon's best song.

[Toeknee994L]

The best off "Blood Mountain".

[Smithers6650]

Cool song to get stoned to.

[CannabisCorpz666]

@Smithers6650 fuck yeah it is! \m/ @_@ \m/

[superfunpartyguy]

yeah where'd all these covers come from i checked last year and there was maybe 1 or 2 covers of this song.

[Casicko]

epically beautiful

[theduke373]

Finally someone put up the original



[7A35]

I think this is my new favorite band.

[slash92able]

Ahahah A lot of cover but just one original song

[GordoMisfit138]

This is fucking beautiful,my favourite mastodon song,thanks for posting!

[AngusYoungGboy]

@GordoMisfit138 You're welcome. It's also quickly becoming one of my favourites of theirs. Love how it changes it's feel pretty much half-way though.

[OriginalWhiteTornado]

Oh thank god. I thought all was lost amongst a sea of pointless covers.

[youngdrummer3]

@OriginalWhiteTornado OMG me too!! i typed in this song and mastodon.. fucking covers everywhere

[AngusYoungGboy]

@OriginalWhiteTornado That was THE reason I decided to upload. So many covers, albeit awesome, weren't exactly what I wanted. I wanted some pure Mastodon that wasn't spoilt :P

[OriginalWhiteTornado]

@AngusYoungGboy Thanks for that. I mean kudos to people who play it well, but god damn, something is wrong when I get dozens of people trying to show off and can't even find the original.
