Curl > Show Yourself >>>>> High Road. High Road's chorus makes Show Yourself sound interesting



Seriously the chorus of High Road just about causes pain

I think the problem is most of what Mastodon puts out is a fine listen, until you look at some of their best songs and remember what they've been capable of in the past.

Other than about 4 to 5 songs per every album of theirs that I end up loving, the only album I truly care about in full is CtS

However, this is the first album of theirs where I can't remember a single thing. Except Blow Yourself, since that's the only song people talk about lol

this has mostly good songs, which is better than the last few which have been mostly okay songs.

Better than the Hunter and OMRTS, but theyve just lost their viciousness. Anyone else baffled by the garbage production? How does it still get worse?

I thought the production was good this time. It didn't work on OMRTS, but I don't have a problem here.

The Hunter & OMRTS are about as vicious as a sick puppy.

That was at audiosmurf, although reading it again he may have meant they lost it during that period & not with EoS.

Was it just dull as dishwater, or actually gratingly bad? I'm expecting the former having heard 3 songs (provided Show Yourself is actually the worst song). I'll actually listen to this by the end of next week, I've set myself a deadline because otherwise I never will, haha.

"Was it just dull as dishwater, or actually gratingly bad?"



both actually. more of the former (just like the last few mastodon records) but there are some cringe moments that come up.
