Shame it gets old fast due to the song structure... like more than half of this album

The sparrow, black tongue and the hunter are all I really enjoy from this anymore. Creature lives and curl of the burl are fun too.

every song is awesome, my only complaint is that some sound too similar.

That was my first initial complaint, that and the lack of consistency, and after each listen it becomes more and more apparent. Like, octopus has no friends is literally intro-verse-chorus-verse-chorus-verse chorus. I'm pretty sure stargasm is exactly the same, maybe minus a verse-chorus.

I really enjoy Black Tongue, Spectrelight, Stargasm, Thickening, and Bedazzled Fingernails. Curl of the Burl is good and The Hunter and The Sparrow are great too.



Other than that, the remainders seem filler-ish

A lot of people give Creature Lives flak but it's just such a fun song, it's a Mastodon song you can legitimately sing along to

that's what I mean, MeatSalad. it got too poppy. traditional pop song structure almost all the way through, and it's all over-produced.

Creature Lives is ok. I like the intro too

The review that called it "masto-pop" is completely accurate.

I'm hoping this was their first, and last, outing with Elizondo

Their sound just really suffered from gaining popularity, unfortunately.
