I massively dig Hawthorne Passage, what a piece of proper atmospheric music. I can hardly call this metal or rock, it belongs to most amazing motion picture soundtrack i guess. Mastodon is having fun on game of throws, why not Agalloch ?



Also Coil is present here for sure, check closing track of Ashes. Listen to musik to play in the dark. Listen closing track again. Figure out.

Well yeah, Mastodon did the soundtrack to that miserable movie. Twice, because the first director was fired and the new one made them write a new one (for free).

"After the soundtrack had been recorded, the Jonah Hex film endured lengthy reshoots and reediting sessions. Due to his previously arranged agreements, and filming for Jonah Hex still incomplete, Powell had to leave the project and was subsequently replaced with composer Marco Beltrami. The first soundtrack Mastodon recorded was written for scenes that were later scrapped during the reshoots, so Beltrami had the band write an entirely new score. While Mastodon had originally described the process of composing a soundtrack in October 2009 as "very pure, it was real creative and totally spur of the moment" and expected "nothing in return but satisfaction in being a part of something incredible," the band found it frustrating to have to rewrite a new score and start from scratch."

I'd love to see Agalloch write a track or two for or have their music used in Game of Thrones. Something like Odal would fit the scenes North of the wall perfectly. They were always at the top of my skyrim playlist anyway (not to say that the game didnt have a fucking incredible ost)

They've drifted pretty far from this style though and I'm not sure their new music would be a great fit for fantasy anymore.

It's a pretty good record considering it's a Death in June ripoff.

I mean to base your entire album off a two minute track from another band's album is total dedication.

The whole album is hardly based off of the track, it's just the intro song and that part of The Great Cold Death that uses the chords in a similar way.

The passage is the general theme of the record. That's why it's repeated later on down the line.
