Since I like getting other peoples opinions on music tongue.gif what do you guys/girls think of mastodon? Personally I think they are amazing! I saw them on the unholy alliance tour part II and they blew me away! I even ebay'd all of their albums tongue.gif

I like Mastadon a lot. I love all the albums and I'd say Leviathon or however you spell it is their worst album but still better than what most metal bands release these days.

I never really gave them a chance to truly sink in me. Since I've had Leviathan in about 4 years now, and only spinning it 2-3 times. I don't know, I should really listen to them more. I've heard a lot of good things about them.

Leviathan was alright but the new album Blood Mountain is fantastic! But I mean when you make a concept album based on Moby Dick its hard to be as awesome as Leviathan is tongue.gif

Ahab took the concept of Moby Dick to a new level of awesome. If you fancy Funeral Doom Metal, then Ahab's A Call Of The Wretched Sea is a supreme masterpiece.

I love mastodon. Saw them live aswell a year ago, and they were great happy.gif

I saw them when they warmed up for Iron Maiden in 2005. Wasn't really impressed tongue.gif but they're probably better now.

Awesome band, every album rules! And I think there are 2 other Mastodon threads, at least I know I started one.

I've heard the Blood Mountain album, and that rules!
My favorite Mastodon song is Colony of Birchmen... it's just FANTASTIC smile.gif !
