just now jamming this, on Feast Your Eyes and so far I really dig it. definitely their most straight forward release (or so it seems right now), but they pull this sound off so well

Yeah better than on The Hunter which I liked but was too sporadic, this flows much better imo

It's certainly a winner. Also I considered your suggestions and revised the review a bunch, it makes more sense now so

thanks for that

This is more interesting than the Hunter imo which was solid but lacking some of that Mastodon magic that this recaptures a little more. Both are bottom tier Don though

sweet @talons. i hope i didnt come off as a dick. honestly i rarely read reviews, except for new releases from bands i really like, so when i do i like to give my thoughts on it (not that im an expert writer or anything lol). i think the organization you have in the review now works a lot better, nice work

Last sentence of the first paragraph lacks clarity and doesn't make much sense. Otherwise, decent review.

Sounding a little better on second listen but where is the grit? Most of these riffs are so streamlined and don't really have distinct 'Mastodon' qualities to them.



It is undoubtedly catchy but I miss the grit and power from releases like Leviathan and Remission :/

At least mainstream mastodon is better than most other mainstream music

Good review, though I don't think I'd say Oblivion was their best song.

No, just stating a fact that i miss that style of Mastodon so much.



This is good but doesn't feel like a Mastodon record.

I see exactly what Pleb is saying. With each release they're going more mainstream I say. I'd even say this is more into the mainstream then The Hunter but just much better executed.
