Product Description

Hailed as the future of metal, Mastodon are poised to make a leap into the mainstream with the release of their third album and Warner Bros. Records debut 'Blood Mountain'.

Produced by Matt Bayles (Isis, Pearl Jam) and mixed by Rich Costey (The Mars Volta, Muse), the twelve-track 'Blood Mountain' finds Mastodon expanding on the sounds of their groundbreaking 'Leviathan' set. Relentlessly heavy yet intricately crafted, 'Blood Mountain' sees Mastodon expanding their progressive and avant-garde tendencies to create an innovative approach to contemporary metal. Highlights of the set include 'Crystal Skull', 'Capillarian Crest', 'Bladecatcher', 'Colony Of Birchman' and 'This Mortal Soil'.

Relentlessly heavy yet intricately crafted, 'Blood Mountain' features guest appearances by Queens Of The Stone Age's Josh Homme on 'Colony Of Birchmen' plus The Mars Volta's Cedric Bixler and Ikey Owens on 'Siberian Divide' and 'Pendelous Skin' respectively. 'Crystal Skull' also features vocals courtesy of Neurosis vocalist Scott Kelly.
