what the fuck is up with those chorus cleans?? thats troy?? weird. it had a cool crack the skye-esque part towards the end but overall... 5/10
Nah, that sounds like Brann.
I think Mastodon is starting to feel comfortable with the poppy sound they were developing with The Hunter. The main riff is nasty, but it's just a simplistic song. I always loved Mastodon because they were never afraid to push boundaries and experiment. That being said, it's not a bad song, and I'm still highly anticipating the new record. If there's variance, awesome. But if a lot of the stuff sounds like this, I'm not too sure I'm gonna keep up with Mastodon.
Better lead single than Curl of the Burl. I love how the chorus sounds. It's simple for them as many have mentioned but I still like it. Surely there will be better songs.
people have complained about these radio style tracks ever since 'colony of birchmen', but to a certain extent it's their willingness to write songs like this one that help increase their profile and make them more relevant. They've also set their personal bar a little higher than most because if this were a red fang or sword track nobody would bat an eye
Yeah, that's where I'm at. I'm cool with a Curl of the Burl because there's plenty of quality tracks on The Hunter. I'm confident Mastodon are capable of putting out a record that's at the same level of the Hunter or even earlier stuff. I'm definitely hoping it's at least better than The Hunter because that record doesn't have the replay value of their first 3.

As long as they don't put out an entire album of this shit, they'll prolly be fine

I mean don't get me wrong, there's not a single Mastodon song I dislike, but obviously that track is inferior to their other singles
