MASTODON Complete Work On New Album; Cover Artwork Posted Online
- June 21, 2006
|
|
Atlanta's MASTODON have officially completed work on their third album, "Blood Mountain", due this fall via the band's new label, Warner Bros. The album's cover artwork was posted online on the band's official web site as an interactive puzzle, where the pieces must be dragged and dropped to create the cover. Check it out at this location. "Blood Mountain" is being recorded with Seattle-based producer Matt Bayles ( ISIS, HORSE THE BAND). The CD was mixed in New York by Rich Costey ( AUDIOSLAVE, MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE). Songtitles set to appear on the follow-up to 2004's "Leviathan" include "Circle of Cysquatch", "Hunters of the Sky", "The Sleeping Giant", "Bladecatcher", "The Colony of Birchmen", "Pendulous Skin", "The Siberian Divide", "Capillarian Crest", "Hand of Stone", "Crystal Skull", "The Wolf Is Loose" and "This Mortal Soil". In a recent interview with MTV.com, drummer Bränn Dailor said about the upcoming CD, "It's hard to be inside something and talk to people about it. And it's kind of a cliché that the people in the band think that what they're working on at the moment is the best stuff they've ever done. But I guess that's the way that we feel. It's just more intense, more — I mean I like everything we've ever done. But at the moment, I'm really digging on this stuff. It's hard for me to put into words what's different about it. It's just better."

not even going to bother with the melachi's today fellas. thumbs down for this gimmick. can't be assed. looking forward to the album, even though i think signing to a major will end up being a waste of time.

Aren't they on the UK leg of Unholy Alliance? Some one said earlier that them signing to a major would be a waste of time. I agree. Whats the odds they'll be on Roadrunner by the end of the year?
