Here's a few songs from the new mastodon album. enjoy.
In addition to appearing on the Unholy Alliance tour, Atlanta's Mastodon is
readying the release of their third full-length studio recording with long time
producer Matt Bayles. The album, titled Blood Mountain, is the follow up to the
Bayles produced Leviathan, which propelled Mastodon into the critical limelight
throughout much of 2005 and has kept them there ever since. Since forming in
1999, the band, Brann Dailor, Bill Kelliher, Troy Sanders and Brent Hinds has
essentially lived on the road. After non-stop touring they decided to record a
demo, which would ultimately be released in a shortened EP form on Relapse
Records as Lifeblood. The success of the EP spurned more touring, and even
greater success. Their first full-length album Remission, followed in 2002. True
to form another round of touring ensued and then Leviathan an album critics were
quick to embrace. But it's with the band's legion of fans that they have really
delivered. Mastodon's "blue collar" touring ethic has earned them constant
accolades from fans that have grown accustomed to their accessibility,
approachability and dedication as a working mans band. Rare is the artist who
achieves that critical balance coupled with the level of fan support Mastodon
has attained. And it was for those fans that Mastodon has again decided to tour
as a part of the Unholy Alliance tour this summer. The tour is a perfect
opportunity to expose the band to an even wider audience and come fresh on the
heels of their next release, Blood Mountain, their Warner Bros Records debut,
which is due in stores September 12.
