"Megatherium" is a track from the newly released full length album "Cenozoic", channeling the prehistoric animalism in pure form through the totemic representation of creatures that once roamed the ancient Earth. With massive powerful drums, shamanic chants, tribal grunts and dark, cavernous soundscapes, the journey to the prehistory continues. Full album: paleowolf.bandcamp.com/album/...

Megatherium (name meaning "Giant Beast"), sometimes called the Giant Ground Sloth, is a genus of elephant-sized ground sloth. Measuring 7 meters long and weighing 3 tons, it was one of the largest megafaunal mammals of all time. They shared their environments with other Ice Age animals like Smilodon and Glyptodon. Possessing giant claws on their hands, Megatherium was far from being a normal sloth. They measured over 16 - 26 feet (5 - 8 m) in length, stood 13 feet (4 m) tall, and weighed 3 tons (6,000 lbs.), more than an adult elephant; a very different beast from their distant relatives, the gentle tree dweller sloths of today.
These creatures also boasted impressive defenses. Small bones beneath their skin acted as a chain mail, therefore, Megatherium had powerful clawed forelimbs for attack and armor-plated skin for defense, rendering adults virtually indestructible.
