Mastodon - The Last Baron - Vancouver April 23 2009

[Kagda96]

I would kill to see these guys live.

[MrSpeedgtrst16]

I love how this band makes every other band seem generic

[ccblapl]

Troy and Brent are my favorite vocal tandem behind only Jeffrey Nothing and JMann. And the fact that they do it while playing instruments is all the more impressive.

[ccblapl]

@TheAdrenalineEffect As of late, my favorite album as well. A goddamned masterpiece, metal or otherwise.

[jefferydsteele]

i love that the masses declared crack the skye as one of the top ten albums of the year....greatness...friggin' awesome....

[MetalBassist1234]

[S2YEscape]

I wanna know who the one person is who disliked this. Like, are you serious?

[mightywarriorx]

shit metal

[demonof90]

welcome to the relm of great progressive metal....

[CreatureCore7]

It almost looks like Brent is wearing a shirt with Roy Orbison on it. Watching this at home in front of my sorry computer is giving me goosebumps...I expect that they'd provide an amazing live performance.

[daviejamess]

[MelonFrier88]

crack the skye kills

[builditwithlegos]

I listened to this album on the top deck of a cruise ship in Alaska. There were mountains on both sides and it was dark and cloudy out. Towards the end of the album there was a split between clouds, a crack in the sky if you will, and the sunlight was coming though it on top of the mountains. It was the most epic thing I've ever experienced and I will never forget it. Looking at the mountains surrounded by black clouds but sunlight streaming down on top. I remember every time I hear this song.

[2WinGs2]

Wow dude, it had to be intense. I envy you!

[builditwithlegos]

Aww man it was sick.

[CreatureCore7]

Amazing

[builditwithlegos]

Indeed

[HQEY]

[MetalBassist1234]

@builditwithlegos i seriously envy you

[dikvetwijf]

@builditwithlegos

good for you!

[drumrnva]

Holy crap...that was amazing. Thanks for posting this!

[amygdelas]

next time someone points out in a live 'studio' recording, like Letterman, or those other ones floating around have bad vocals, point them to this video.

I keep saying they sing awesome live, but there's just not enough good evidence online. This is what they sounded like, but there's simply no way to fully capture the power...

Many thanks to the poster. This is awesome.

[Hiiiiiiiis]

damn Brent is god on vocal here!

[Acceptabel]

This must be one of the greatest performances ever. This really does sound great! Almost like in the album, even!

[xnoreq]

cool

[Joonash]

Fucking love that part which starts at 4:56

[tfojstary]

that's great that they play this song, for now it's the best on album for me.

[devillyn1]

i was right beside the security gaurd and the speaker, in front of hinds. ( as it seems so was everyone else, lol)

it was great to see a vid from that spot, took me back a bit.

ill see mastodon anytime again.

one of my favorite bands.

[pharsyded]

Pretty awesome gig. I was in the very front just too the right of wear this video was shot. I recorded the whole Crack the Skye performance but it was too loud for my camera too handle. I was also fighting a crack head whore during this song. Good times, and good video!

[doomgloompoon]

Thanks for posting this. That was an awesome show.

[captainshizerstance]

this band makes every other band sound like coldplay. best combination of heavy, original, soul, art, out there easily.

[kabirlovero1]

Fucking great song

[justaphasia]

fuckin rights....i was right there to the right. hinds is my hero.
