So the new Mastodon album leaked onto the interwebs. Now normally i wont download an album of a band i love off of bit torrent or anything, but i just couldn't take the suspense anymore. After the first listen through my laptop speakers i was like "wow". Then i put that bitch on my iphone, plugged in the ear buds cranked up the volume and gave it another spin. After it was over this time i said "WOW". Fucking EPIC. I almost shit my pants thats how epic it is. Now while not as hard as previous efforts, it still packs a punch. It's the kind of album you need to set aside an hour or so to be by yourself for the first listen. You do not want to be interupted. While not needed to enjoy this masterpiece, mind altering substances would probably highten the experience if you are into that kind of thing. It's a trippy concept album that travels through time and space. I'd go as far as saying its this generations Dark Side of the Moon. I pre ordered the deluxe edition cause of the amazing art and packaging designed by Mastodon vet Paul Romano. I definitely recommend picking this up when it drops on March 24th. Definite contender for rock album of the year.
