@himsaad714 but its certainly dying off.. look back in history. most artist had some talent because they couldn't use technology to replace it. Now days any dipshit can sing, wack it in audiotone and sound good. it hasnt died.. but music certainly is dying thanks to technology. hell alot of music is made using technology.. no musicianship in that techno/house/D&B shit
Lol @ the singer. Just total garbage. I keep hearing about this band. Sounds like very dated prog metal to me. Id much rather like to a band that sounds more modern like Mars Volta to name one. Way better than this corny trash. Nice synchronized guitar solos. What is this 1985?
@Maxpow33r Mastodon is classic sludge/prog metal. I mean these new screamo bands that have started appearing everywhere. Sorry if my point wasnt clear.
@ABFan010 SOME modern music sucks, not all. Ive found plenty of bands who write very artistic and complex music that sound a hell of a lot more modern than this dated bullshit. Mars Volta being one example. It just cracks me up that people are now resorting to garbage like this because they have just given up and are totally unaware of some of the great shit out there right now that doesnt actually sound like its right out of the 80s.
@trenken Dated? Have you listened to anything by Mastodon other than this clip. They have a bit of a prog-metal sound but overall they're a sludge band. Sludge metal's such a new genre, how can you say its dated?
"dated"? Really? Because they have to sound like bands today to be good? They have to sound like peice of shit mars volta? Get the fuck out of youtubez, hipster.
@shamusolarry there was that picture of Dave Grohl on their facebook page. Don't know if that necessarily means he'll be on there, but it'd be sweet if he was...
I think Crack the Skye represented air. In fact, all four elements have been used already, so I don't know if they are going to continue that concept... fifth element?
@eemmppeerroorr How did Crack The Skye represent air? It was about time travelling, worm holes and Branns sister wasn`t it? Blood Mountain, Leviathan and Remission were obviously about the elements. But I can`t detect it clearly in Crack The Skye
@olpaxis Silly me :D I did some research and it seems that Crack The Skye's element was actually aether/ quintessence/ something like that, which is actually some kind of a fifth element, so air would be still unused then. The Hunter may represent Air in this case.
@MetaI4Brains that's what Crack the Skye represented, think this one is represents the heart as in the determination of a hunter and his will to go forward
When Mastodon said their new album was "less proggy", i started to worry a bit. I was afraid it wasn't gonna be as good. But this sounds pretty damn progressive to me, and straight up awesome! This album's gonna be amazing. I can't believe I doubted Mastodon, even for a short time. Can anyone forgive me???
@FieldsOfSorrow87 You're not the only one! I've doubted on them too, when i found out that there was NO concept, less proggy... I doubted a bit.. Alot of people did.. But it is going to be fucking awesome. We kow that now!
:l goddammit. MUSIC IS SUBJECTIVE. you like it or you don't.
Actually, you know what fuck it; I'm going to fucking ignore the retarded comments on how this already sounds bad cause I enjoy music PERIOD. So, if it's bad it doesn't mean I'm giving up on the band. I like Mastodon, so if you still have something to debate over and UNRELEASED album that is also a dedication to Mr. Hines brother both of whom like CLASSIC rock. Then you can go screw yourselves.
I'm gonna be honest, I only like the first 0:22 seconds. Everything after that sounds like that staple metal two-guitar harmony thet bands like Trivium and Bullet seem to flog to death. I mean these guys are different from that, I hope the new producer didn't turn them into "old school metal bands like trivium who are sewww br00talxXxxXxXxXxX"
@xbadninjax I don't think there's an album that I've been more psyched about. I was pretty fervent over 10,000 Days when it was announced but this tops that by some way.
Very happy they have stayed with the heavyness and progessive elements from Crack the Skye, although i love Remission and Leviathan, the later works far more are my taste.
Crack The Skye is going to be a damn hard act to follow, but this sounds promising. Different, but very promising. You can already tell how upbeat and fun this album is going to be.
@ourworldsatwar depends what you consider mediocre. Just because you don't like something, doesn't mean it's not a crafted masterpiece to someone else. Blood moutain and CTS are very musically great albums, they just aren't as heavy as their first 3 albums. If you want heavy shit, go listen to heavy shit, no one really cares if you think their newer shit is mediocre
@thevotolom I think I dont like crack the skye that much because I was so excited about it. I read in an interview that they were really taking the mars volta approach to an album and i was stoked.
