This is probably my favorite album of all time. As a drummer, every single song was such an inspiration for me - Brann is a beast. Back when I was 14 I was just getting into metal. I think Blood Mountain had just come out about a year before. I went on vacation to universal studios florida on one of my breaks and I was wearing my Mastodon shirt. We were sitting down eating churros on a bench, when all of a sudden I see Brann and his wife appear out of nowhere walking toward us. Me and my friend were basically star struck (we were just kids). We ran up to him and couldn't really say much except "Holy shit! We love your band!" Him and his wife were so cool to us. You could tell he was happy to meet some fans and was just a really friendly, genuine dude. We talked for a while about random shit and asked him what they were working on and he told us that their new album "Crack the Skye" was coming out in the next few months. We took a picture with him and were about to leave, when out of nowhere he invited us to go on The Hulk rollercoaster with him and his wife. We were so fucking stoked, it was so much fun. He even bought us the ride picture afterwards!! Really cool people, I will never forget that - still have that picture in my closet somewhere

@202d 6 жыл бұрын

copy n paste from a search, good explanation of the best song on here: [hearts alive] ...It's nearly the band's crowning Opus, and is definitely the culmination of the Leviathan's storyline....this song went over the heads of SO many people....found "it's boring", "it's slow", "it's not heavy enough", "it's repetitive". How could people miss the point so dramatically? Hearts Alive IS the whale! It rises from the deep, it thrashes around, it is eternal. The lyrics are about the behavior of the whale and the interaction with the captain. The riff from 10:03 until the end of the song evolves so slowly and methodically..."

Minority opinion: I just discovered Mastodon recently and have listened to most of their discography a couple of times over (as I am doing with Leviathan right now) and like it all but the one that I keep returning to is The Hunter. I put it on in my car and just kept hitting repeat on Dry Bone Valley.

"47 minutes of pure progressive sludge metal brutality and chaos. An absolute masterpiece" Im like, wanting to frame your words. So well said, yes.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

@@tadpole2bullfrog201 The Hunter I love. Criminally underrated progressive sludge metal and stoner rock/metal. Bit more polished and kind of restrained, but who cares, the music itself is excellent.

What Mastodon, Matt Bayles and Relapse achieved together with this album is nothing short of awesome. Most of their songs on this album were part of gaming soundtracks and one of them made it into a big screen kids movie. A critical and commercial success. One that will go down in history, although, to me, it's already there.

+Kalihan Mclean I have found that there is a first 3 Album Phenomenon. The first 3 Albums of Bands who are considered Successful, at least, and usually it is the first 3 Albums that are the best & sometimes the only like with Portis Head -their first 3 are in a genre & classification of their own, & even though they have toured heavily since getting back together a while ago, years. There is only the 3 Portis Head Albums. Just an example, but 3 is the number for the best Albums.
