jules Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Mastodon drummer/vocalist Brann Dailor recently spoke with the German branch of Metal Hammer regarding the bands forthcoming album “The Hunter“. According to Dailor the group are tentatively aiming for an October release date for the outing, while newly revealed tentative track titles include “The Sparrow” and “The Ruiner“. this should be fantastic. in other interviews I've heard brann describe the music as a super heavy zeppelin. there is a decent video interview here too. can't wait. http://www.theprp.com/2011/06/15/news/mastodon-aiming-for-october-release-for-the-hunter/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psn Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 Really looking forward to this one. Saw Mastodon live for the sixth time or whatever last weekend, and it was bloody amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AcrossCanyons Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 great news. one of the best and most consistent metal bands about. in other news has anyone read about that "supergroup" being formed by members of mastodon, the mars volta and the dillinger escape plan?

Zephyr_Nova Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 Sweeeeeeeeeeeeet. I really like that cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jules Posted July 8, 2011 Author Share Posted July 8, 2011 yea me too. quite a departure for them though. I wonder if there will be any Paul Romano artwork this time, i don't think they have ever used anyone else for anything they have done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghOsty Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 I think the cover art and change of logo indicates a change in sound on this one... I can't find the specific interview, but I remember reading somewhere (perhaps a post from Relapse Records on Facebook) that they were claiming to be done with the elemental theme thing their last few albums have had. I have a feeling this one is gonna be less prog-ish and more back to just some heavy slabs of straight up metal, like the Remission era stuff, but of course evolved upon as the group has grown greatly since then.

jules Posted July 8, 2011 Author Share Posted July 8, 2011 yea I agree. I think this album is going to be a mixed bag of a few styles. there will still be proggy stuff though I think. there are a few tracks on here from the crack the Skye writing sessions. it sounds like they had fun with tjis one and didn't take it as serious as the last few.

jules Posted July 15, 2011 Author Share Posted July 15, 2011 Can't wait for this. It's tough keeping myself form listening to the previews. their si only 1 preview and it really doesn't give anything away. the video with the puppets is a leftover track from crack the skye, it wont be on the hunter. do not deprive yoursefl of that video, it is pretty cool.

sooner Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 amazing studio band. but live always kind of dissapointing. saw them in june. after 70 minutes they left. glad i didnt pay... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AcrossCanyons Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 When I saw them it was the single best show I've been to. Absolutely incredible. I even went alone to it and it was still good enough to top all of the (many) gigs I'd been to prior. I thought they weren't very good live after watching live vids of youtube tho so they may be hit/miss. But when they hit, they fucking hit.

jules Posted July 17, 2011 Author Share Posted July 17, 2011 yea when I have seen them they are tight and I could just watch dailor for days on end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azatoth Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 I saw them opening for Tool and the soundmixer must have been out drinking a beer as it sounded awful and ruined their whole set. Once Tool came on the sound was perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr_Nova Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 I saw them and Converge open for Dethklok. The opening bands definitely got screwed for sound as tends to be the case, but I think Mastodon was having an off night as well. The vocals were flat for a lot of it, and the rhythm was surprisingly unsteady. But fuck do they ever make good albums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
