Mastodon: Curl Of The Burl [Official Video]

[fatsnorkel]

Triple j sent me here

[Afireinside912]

This is MUCH better than their old stuff. The old stuff was not even music.

[TheMharrisj]

Does anyone else think that this kinda sounds like Ozzy?

[DrOprahVonPenishat]

This album shits all over the last two but i prefer the old heavy stuff.... is that some sort of crime? Do i have to pretend to like the new stuff so as not to be a hipster, or can i have my own opinion?

[atari3200t]

Burl: good guitar wood, even better drug

[consummateify]

Whats up with the girls at the end?

[sanpedrolocal1970]

video blows my mind!!

[POWohnomypants]

brb snorting sawdust

[Venturi01]

just say no to burl

[hi1000ish]

Awesome song

[JordanaandDeannaers]

When a band changes their sound, people automatically say they've sold out. Thats not how a band sells out. Bands cannot keep releasing the same album over and over again. Changing the sound is them evolving as musicians.

[ramathorn6]

@JordanaandDeannaers well said man

[Rip88Tide]

they kinda sold out but they are still pretty good, dont like this song much tho.

[redlikewater]

@Rip88Tide "selling out" is an contrived term that means exactly NOTHING. It's typically expressed by jealous haters who've done NOTHING musically themselves, particularly nothing THIS GOOD. 

[Rip88Tide]

@redlikewater UM no selling out means you changed your sound to fit and appeal a broader audience, it means that alote more of the masses will like you, example smoother easier to listen to vocals, toned down instrumental work, but I dont think that Mastadon has done all of that, they still are a great band, I still like them I just remember thier early sound and work, Like Remission and even blood mountain, listen to remission and tell me that thier is not a huge defference,

[redlikewater]

@Rip88Tide My bad dude!!! I see where you're coming from..and you're right. I've seen people toss that term around too much over the years, and the only band it ever really applied to Metallica...lol

[Rip88Tide]

@redlikewater Like I said they are still a great band dude, im still a fan this is just something i noticed for this album, I just hope they never sell out like the band All That Remains they were very good band then they totally sold out the vocals changed from screaming and hard melody notes to pop shit , and they now play on the radio all the time.

[Nicholosity]

@Rip88Tide As a progressive band they wont, this was an experimental album and it was probably the best album they ever made.

[NearOblivion101]

@Rip88Tide true that man fall of ideals was the shit then it all went downhill :/ new album was barely up to snuff

[arrax12]

Did I just watch a drug crazed hermit transform into a lumberjack then impale the sun with a tree?

[ualtv]

A modern day Bohemian Rhapsody.

[Bodokukac91]

what the fuck did i just saw

[cronabiss]

WHAT THE FUCK

[dezzerick86]

2:23 Homeless Super Mario

[PatientGreg]

Who ever said drugs were bad for you?

[zayxav]

I think i just found my new background picture 2:45 :)

[VerySkinnyJeans]

@zayxav I found mine at 3:19 :)

[cgabriel65]

Is that a Deer ???

No..........Chuck Testa :D

[BALANCEPOINT1]

thats just fuckin bad ass

[hindusanta123]

you probably thought that deer was alive, nope. Chuck Testa

[Jatzification]

Seeing these guys today. oooooooooooo yyeeaaahahhhhhhh

[smsphl]

@Jatzification have fun, their shows are amazing

[brokrnremains]

if you don't know what this song is about then you leave a very sheltered life.

[ReVzxFuZiioNz]

Maybe ill see if it actually works!! No jk, but the guitar at the begining just blow me away, and then rest of the song is even BETTER!

[TheGuitarmanDK2]

1:38 - You probably thought that deer was alive....NOPE. Chuck Testa.

[xBCxRICHx1993]

those girls gave him wood.. hehehe

[drumbot739]

Cocaine from a tree. Interesting.

[ToxicTrioTV]

Best album since Tool's 10,000 Days. Mastodon is awesome.

[saganemc2]

@SeriouslyJack-ah, wrong. Give it another listen, if u still don't get it, kill yourself

[SeriouslyJack]

Can't help but think the music isn't anything special, and people only like this because of the video...

[OwMyBrains]

@SeriouslyJack I don't like the song or the video, and I love Mastodon.

[SmilyFishProductions]

Wth? o.o;;

[elfuz]

Redneck inside

[xcosox]

Now i present you...THE FLAMING TITS!

[Compendium34]

Nope, Chuck Testa.

[AdrianDiasZa]

I love Mastodon, but this song and video are not their best work by any means.

[TrustyxC4]

I freakin love the beard on the lumberjack. I want to go as this guy for Halloween and jam to this song all night

[mouthbreather1]

It's not my favorite Mastodon song, but it's my favorite Mastodon video.

[JNegPhoto]

this and that new odd future video are videos that just leave me thinking "wtf did I just see?!?" Mind blown.

[hellbagun2]

this video give me a wood. :D

[mysteriousimport]

Save a tree" Eat a Beaver "

[TalekAetem]

...The fuck did I just watch?

[Ric7jr]

Stop deforestation!

[Coocoopuff180]

This might just be the greatest music video of all time

[Ismashguitars111]

Disappointing :(



[xDmonLoonx]

Too bad they lost the grammy to fucking Foo Fighters... What the fuck is wrong with people these days?

[TheSuperScaryMonster]

@xDmonLoonx Foo Fighters aren't crap there amazing!

[slowhand19]

theyre starting to sound like thin lizzy. not a bad thing.

[TheArsonistInMe]

I feel like I just stepped foot into the Evil Dead dimension of Youtube

[joewnage]

Is it me, or does the music in the music video sound a little different than the one on the actual soundtrack? It sorta sounds like they tweaked the pitch a little bit in certain spots.

[liko321]

lolwut

[jvemPiRe14]

it's the trickster from thief!

[knightofcydonia07]

Liking the nod towards the deer from QotSA's No One Knows video and the giant hand from Everlong.

[markosubotin]

........I think they want to say that they are straight edge!

[battlep0t]

"This song is catchy, ergo I must hate it to be true to my image"

Fucking hipsters.

[AMERICAFLAGSFLY]

Listen to EVERYthin i want to say please okay? thsi doestnt take very long, and i got to tell you now or I tell yo u my dad wil KILL me. MASTODON is fake!!!!!!!!111 They never stole many songs but all the stuff i can write down about it isnt even real. THEY STOLE FROM the end of alot of heavier albums

[KITTENZ0MB13]

@AMERICAFLAGSFLY i hate to tell you this, but a lot of bands, such as even led zepplin and metallica, steal shit from other bands. sooo.... get the fuck over it.

[bandwidthzero]

@AMERICAFLAGSFLY Problem?

[thecrig666]

@AMERICAFLAGSFLY Did Mastodon steal your ability to spell?

[28crazyguy]

@AMERICAFLAGSFLY your dad will kill you? hmmmmm

[jackjude]

Burl = a tree growth in which the grain has grown in a deformed manner

[jackjude]

@jackjude Ahhh...Brent Hinds was a carpenter. Prized for there patterning, burls are sliced and are used as inlays in furniture,

[fedya60]

вот это трип))

[Sbradshaw721]

why does this remind me of creepshow??

[hollowband]

@Sbradshaw721 Same goes for me! HAH!

[CombineRustler]

I feel like my intelligence just increased by 66666666&#@äĐ[ä[[ÄÄsmörgäsbör9­95349596234534532345

[hexknot]

i swear you cant go fuckin around in the woods these days snortin sawdust without some damn fire titty bitches showing up and ruining it.

[pepemordor]

The video is great but the song isn't very good

[martin4905]

@pepemordor bullshit

[raath555]

3:18 anddddd PAUSE

[ohyayitstrey]

Yeah man, fuck that sun.

[saganemc2]

[TheCillo85]

[Viper505repiV]

NO!!! NOT Mr. Sun!!! D:

[mastodon2806]

Worst song on the album and the worst by Mastodon

[jasonmoose111]

and that sums up a shroom trip

[faitharmorgaurd]

Damn dude.

[faitharmorgaurd]

This video makes sense those people who are drunk and/or high. i guess.

[faitharmorgaurd]

I guess they lit that fire WITH their titties! ;D

[R0Ui11i3R]

Take that Pac Man

[mswayner65]

Makes me want to throw a tree into the suns eye!

[PatSchmee]

I think one of the girls at the end is Hefe's from Nofx wife?

[thecrig666]

2:35 is a feral lolcat.

[lotsametalandhumor]

$100 says some idiot is gonna watch this video and go snort a line of sawdust. Mastoson \m/

[rockaholick37]

Don't do drugs kids

[BigManMorris4578]

What just happened to my face?

[faitharmorgaurd]

2:10 LMFAO That look on his face! 

[EVILSMILEY999]

LOL'd so hard @2:36 xDDDDDD

[JMerc07]

Glad real women don't set wood on fire with their tits

[secon]

i was listening to the radio today and heard "and now mastodon curl of the burl" i almost shit that i was hearing mastodon on the radio. then i heard the song and i almost shit again. what the FUCK happened to mastodon? this is the cookie cutter garbage. i wish i could give this 30 thumbs down. i had to put on march of the fire ants just to keep from cutting my wrists. talk about selling out.

[moshrocker2006]

@secon Talk about being full blown ignorant...You just want them to release March of the Fire Ants every album apparently. Any true fan of Mastodon enjoys everything they do. There's no greater metal band out right now. Do yourself a favor and stop listening to them because they don't give a shit about what you think!

[nahkxxx]

@moshrocker2006 yeah i agree, Mastodon is pretty much going to do their thing regardless of who's on board. So what if it's more rock than metal, it's still mastodon at it's core.

[battlep0t]

@secon Not sure if troll or just hipster.

[faitharmorgaurd]

@secon no its not fool. its not cookie cutter.

[AMERICAFLAGSFLY]

fuck mastodon I'm party for ghost. I cant believe ghost let a shitty shit like him go on tour. They stole the riff from slash first.

[MrEinstain]

Reasons why i love Mastodon:

-trippy prog stoner someshit music

-videoclips

[CavemanSynthesizer]

I feel like this is a parable for something.

[TaintedEquilibrium]

I gotta say, that's a pretty epic way to die.

[HdzCarlosE]

bryan wilson?? D:

[mphgoose]

Got wood???

[willxP2008]

I was thinking about the stone age where men killed men for nothing in the absence of government, law and order but that would do...

[gr8skpz]

he got wood

[DeatrusTV]

The most insane music video i've ever seen

[SMWhit3out]

That was the fucking best video ever

[SMWhit3out]

the album the greatest progressive band went mainstream.

[Ruben39DM]

This is more than fuckin' good music...

[SGFletcher565]

Talk about getting wood!! hahaha



[fishstix243]

HOORAY FOR DRUGS!! :D

[mbmhs]

Haha! Really cool and hilarious video.

[StrikinglySkillfull]

69 people have never done 69

[mrseanpride]

just when i dont think mastodon cant get any better they have a they make one of my favourite music videos ever!!!

[deadman320]

MY LORD.... the sun is Canadian

[fede2]

69 people do not appreciate the art of making great bad videos.

[YanxRawk]

He choked to death the killer of his Goat, snorted sawdust, grew extra arms, made epic shadow puppets, slept on the floor, met Chuck Testa, smoked living mushroom soup, went on a lumberjack rampage, and then got turned into a tree by lumberjack forest sprites with light blasting out of their titties. This may be the single greatest thing I've seen so far this year. :-D

[kingpharaohtsar]

@YanxRawk true story lol

[TheCreepsAreAlright]

@YanxRawk Not to mention he FUCKING KILLED THE SUN.

[isaybuckedy]

@TheCreepsAreAlright right in the fuckin eyeball! win.

[TakeDownTheSystem97]

@TheCreepsAreAlright for the win

[Metallideth1993]

wut

[r46189]

the crazier the better !!!!!!!!!!!!

[soc1allydistort3d1]

The sun got fucked up

[elenamarie151]

Yep, last time I snorted tree bark same thing happened to me, but it was 5 of the Lakers that surrounded me at the end.

[SowhatRustinpeace]

:L i get it if you understand what the song is about it's not as weird... but still quite strange

[SuperJackfrosty]

im 12 and what is this

[MrTROYisLegend]

Sweet I got what I came for...TITS!!!!

[Nunzi1001]

Im seein these fine lads in NYC with Opeth in a couple months. Get em while they hot. Going to be a doozy of a show I can imagine. It might even top Tool's mysterious asses who I just saw last week and In Flames/Trivium who Im going to see next week. Long live metal you scum suckers.

[Velociraptoro]

remind me not to snort a tree.



[MlKEPORNTOY]

Grandiloquent hokem and hooey. Peonic drivel for imbeciles.

[destroysubgenres]

@MlKEPORNTOY If you're refering to the video is think it's a joke? And if you're refering to the band, then Mastodon are one of the most disciplined and talnted metal bands of their generation, try listening to Blood Mountain and Crack the Skye

[MannyFagnet1]

@MlKEPORNTOY No.

[Rich606]

@MlKEPORNTOY Yeah I like big words too

[Martinoad]

Smh @ Mastodon :::::sighs:::: ......

[chaosvariant]

So I was honestly surprised that The Hunter wasn't in the video because it would have been hilarious to see him kill The Hunter instead of that deer.

[JobForaBlackDahlia]

@chaosvariant The album is called "The Hunter" because the lead guitarist brother suffered a heart attack and died while on a hunting trip.

[ThrashingKangaroo]

That guy knows how to party

[joeywyatt15]

Nope.....Chuck Testa

[vampslayerace]

Don't eat manshrooms you find in the forest, kids.

[sparerib78]

Whole lotta metaphors in there...

[cja2369]

@sparerib78 No it's just fucking weird. Don't think too hard about it.

[Angelique3391]

Hhhhmmmmm def love the song a GAZILLION times more then the vid lol,sounds better blasting it in my truck though then on youtube ha ^~^

[malcolmX213]

I wish this was what doing drugs was REALLY like. Instead of just feeling like that.

[welcome2machine]

Brutal riff, killer clip!! Mastodon, yes please and thank you!

[Xspoonage]

I enjoy LSD. 

[faithtwelve]

The hell was that?

[ChaoticWrilley]

What the hell did I just watch? A guy snorts a tree then smokes a mushroom man, forgets to pull the choke and gets so high he grows a beard; then gets wood from four hot women....

[dkchri458n]

i guess that's the secret to make a grill'd cheese sandwich.... really hot tits

[beeradcool]

i wish this song was a little longer its friggin awesome

[Dannemana]

So, he got wood in the end?

[Anyth2ng]

Ha! They must have seen that crazy meth head burl collector from the TV show Intervention!

[scapeplan2]

Did I just get laid?

[nenissaK]

Ordinary Monday-morning

[MrNotadeala]

wow! these guys are giving out a wrong message... you cant inhale wood... you have to make it dust first...

[Pinki933]

This is Frikin Hilarious!!

[ibjamin247]

The vocal mix is different in this video. You can hear the drummer's vocals more in the verses. Kinda cool... Listen to the album version and compare it...

[elvishlyproductions]

1:37 It looks real, right?

Nope, it's Chuck Testa.

[jacojacoqaz]

Mastodon na Ursynaliach!!

[10DollarsInQuarters]

Might as well be snortin those burl's...Sellin em for dope money.....

[JermaineEvent]

One of Bill's most badass riffs ever!

[collectivevolution]

This has like an old Kyuss sound to it, but still Mastodon. I fucking love both bands.

So stoked they just announced shows in Toronto with Opeth and Ghost that is going to be a night of epic proportions.

[PHemidall]

They used a lot of Stoner Rock in this album,less violent,more trippy.
