it seems as though mastodon is a band that sings of strange legends, just like how rob zombie sings of nightmarish fantasies. glad to see theres still a band that plays real metal today
ya. mastodon always sings about myths and legends like ine the song blood and thunder its about moby dick and the leviathan that is mentioned by god in the bible so. all these unknown things they sing about. atleast thats my impression form what ive heard
this is sort of related but the last three songs and there three full length studio albums are all about the elephant man. elephant man (remission), joseph merrick (leviathan) and pendulous skin (blood mountain)
Just listened to this entire album on this site (Hearts Alive split into 2 parts, and Joseph Merrick was on some other site.) I've never heard any Mastodon before and I'm not really a metal fan but I got word of them through QOTSA and loved their Artwork. This album AMAZED me. Fucking killer.
Dude, that's totally what I was wondering! They have to be deep ones. They look just like 'em...well, y'know...if deep ones were intentionally cheesy looking.
I like this song a lot. I was glad when they showed this video on headbangersball! when i listen to this song, it makes me want to get on a boat and go on an adventure. lol! Moby Dick is loosely based on a true story. the survivors ended up eating each other to survive. but anyways, the whole album is EPIC!
hey kiss my cock motherfucker it was my opinion i wasnt being disrespectful at all...ive been playing metal for over 20 yrs so get on your knees you fuckin pussy
Arkee71, then you should know that Mastodon just IS experimental. That's good for the whole metal-scene, because then it won't look the same, like most metalcore bands do look like each other( i'm NOT refering Mastodon as a metalcore band). You were not disrespectfull, no, but the part where you said that they would be better if they were less experimental, i can't agree with that. I bet your cock has shrinked now....
I'm just telling that they are experimental sometimes, i'm not referring "experimental" as their music style. Btw, you called them experimental too?! I don't like the label them either, and if it looked like it, then it wasn't my intention.
Great music, odd video tho. Being about Herman Melville's novel Moby Dick, i find it a little odd that none of these videos have anything (obviously) related to the books story. Still, great band/music/album/etc.
Ah, a believer in the horsemen of the apocalypse also has a taste for whip creamed tits. I subsequently give you a thumbs up, and wish you good luck on your conquest for Earth. But when I go to hell, I sure as Fuck want Mastodon to be there shredding out into the dark heat of Hell, bellowing their adventure of the Seabeast. Or wait... are we the Seabeasts?!
Mass respect Topdog, Mastodon rocks! Now I just need to see them live. They are playing at bonaroo this year, and of course I can't make it (combination funds/work - ironic eh?). Some of my friends are going and barely know who they are... which pisses me off. They must not be friends at all.
