The Hunter hits so good when you ain't got a bitch in ya ear tellin you its nasty

Though I will say appreciating it kinda requires forgetting it's by the same band that made Leviathan and its understandable that some people can't/don't want to do that

^ yeah that's literally it. just feels like a different band -- they traded in the mythological concept-album thing for "let's write a dozen fun songs" and it's really not that big a deal once the bubble is popped. this seems like a step back in that direction, for those of us who love the immersion and "journey" (at least that appears to be the consensus. I haven't felt it yet.)

"It’s the Curl Of The Burl."



It's just the way of the world.

Hunter had a way better T/T and just mixing/mastering overall. Once more had better singles though.

The Hunter was one of the most disappointing listens I’ve ever had given how incredible Leviathan, Blood Mountain and Crack the Skye were and at the time Mastodon were probably my favourite band.

It’s not bad it just felt so beneath them as musicians and songwriters.



This is definitely the best since CTS, especially the second half where they feel heavy and sludgy again at times and bring back some of those amazing Leviathan clean guitar tones. The final run of tracks are the standout for me.

dropping by to say that the album is massive and amazing, and oh my god some moments are here are just orgasmic. It's strange how Mastodon elevate songs with vocal melodies

The riffs in Teardrinker give me the same vibe as Soilwork's Verkligheten. Not mad
