It sounds like Queens of the Stone Age because it IS Queens of the Stone Age! Josh Homme does guest vocals for Colony of Birchmen :) And the secret track is him reading a letter he sent to Mastodon when he first heard them

@JimNewstead Год назад

Well, there you go! I know more than I realise!

@kevinrenner2565 Год назад

@@JimNewstead hahahaha, I came to say the same thing. There's a little secret bit by Josh Homme at the very end of the album as well. Keep it real!

@witchbvrner 8 месяцев назад

came here to mention this as soon as he said it! Josh actually leaked this album with that spoken letter weeks before its release hahahaha

If you don't like the genre you still have to appreciate the musicianship. They are one of a kind no matter what

@Chilipotamus Год назад

How anyound could deny the instrumental mastery of this band is insane to me. Hand of Stone --> Siberian Divide has more tasty riffs than most metal bands entire catalogue

@TwoHeavyThrash Год назад

Happy you liked it Jim! I'm here with the obligatory comment to mention that Mastodon's Crack the Skye is one for the all time greats in metal and you should definitely give it the spin! Not to mention one of the most powerful and rich sound mixes I've come across!

@ASNnKC913 Год назад

Leviathan as well! I feel like Jim would enjoy both records, but Crack The Skye a bit more with its proggy nature compared to the ear bludgeoning that is Leviathan. But seeing both records on the channel eventually would be a real treat!

@kenl2091 Год назад

Metal can be rather samey, uninteresting, predictable and safe. This isn't. It has melody, interesting timbres, changes in tempo and time signature yet retains the good bits of metal - distortion, loudness, beats and guitars. Mastodon have been one of the most interesting metal bands of the last 15 years possibly rivalled only by Gojira. Don't forget Leviathan, Jim - that's the Mastodon album before this one with much the same range of music and an even better cover

@BayouMaccabee Год назад

You should checkout the band Hammerhedd then. The new album they released a few weeks ago is STELLAR! It's kinda like if early 90s Helmet went more prog....my favorite album of 2023 so far.

@buckfuttler2877 Год назад

Guess who has 2 thumbs, and is going to see Mastodon and Gojira, April 18th?? 👍This guy!!👍🤘🤘

@@buckfuttler2877 Nice...That'll be a great time! Cheers!

@Meowmeow0506 Год назад

My favorite part of Pendulous Skin is that nobody knows the lyrics. Even when they perform this song live (most recently at the acoustic show in the Atlanta aquarium) Brent distorts his vocals so they are inaudible to make out. People have put together pretty decent guesses on what the hell he's singing some of them work better than others. It's my favorite song out of the "Elephant Man Trilogy" that they ended their first three albums with.

@zakuworks000 7 месяцев назад

OOOOOOCEAAANSSS MORPH TO GLASSSSS... I enjoyed you enjoying it. Blood Mountain remains my favourite Mastodon album for its soaring vocals, weirdness, mystical lyrics and hard riffs. What an accomplishment.

@buckfuttler2877 Год назад

Going to see Mastodon, Gojira, and Lorna Shore April 18! 6 hour drive one way, 280 for two floor tickets. Already worth it!!!

@tylersmith3979 Год назад

Fun Fact: Cedric from The Mars Volta does backup vocals on Siberian Divide (it's the weird effected refrain) and their keyboardist Ikey does the organs on Pendulous Skin : )

@ironpingu6306 Год назад

You will definitely enjoy "Leviathan" which is the previous album to "Blood Mountain" which is also a concept album. Great band & very unique sounding🤘

@przemekz4 Год назад

The mighty Mastodon. Legends.

Pendulous skin is very touching to me

Mastodon: Iron Sabbath became Gojira ;-) I didn't give much about Mastodon; heard it yeaeaeaears ago. But this man .... is fantastic indeed!

@MaraxisArcanist Год назад

Good stuff, Jim! Thanks for sharing more Mastodon.

@JimNewstead Год назад

You sir, are very welcome! Thanks for being here.

@schpleeb Год назад

This is probably my favourite Mastodon record, and Pendulous Skin has a lot to do with it. Just glorious

@LGBTQ71 Год назад

I think is bloody brill. I might have tae buy it!!! I like you turntable mat. Lol. Yes defo a bit black Sabbath there. An I can relate with Ozzy. Slight Iron Maiden too. Very god!

@JimNewstead Год назад

Thanks.

@stephenhaunch3468 Год назад

It's a good one. I quite like Leviathan, I would say that is my favorite of theirs.

@theartistformerlyknownasje6358 Год назад

Love that album 💯

@daffyrwt Год назад

I got into them at the beginning of 2020, did a deep dive during the pandemic and became obsessed with them. Because I was digesting their stuff fairly quickly when I got to Blood Mountain (which was fairly early on) it didn't stand out as much as it does now. It really does have the most interesting song writing and energy than any other album. It's so hard to choose favorites but this might be mine of theirs.

@VanJR. Год назад

I remember to this album in 2006 and being surprised how good it was. Being able to “play” songs off this album in Rock Band 2 in 2008 I became obsessed with the band

@Argom42 Год назад

At the risk of someone stealing my idea: I started writing a novel based on this album. The protagonist is a man named Arthur who was bullied and belittled his whole life and resolves to be cursed with lycanthropy to give him strength enough to take revenge. He finds out that revenge is not as sweet a taste as some claim, especially at the cost of his humanity. He then journeys through realities; based around myths and legends, seeking a way to recover his humanity. I've got the outline for most of the chapters but it's nowhere near being complete yet.

@eighteen-naked-cowboys Год назад

It’s hard to pick a favourite Brent Hinds solo but Pendulous Skin is definitely in the running. But he had some incredible ones on the last few albums as well.

@puppetmaster8551 Год назад

Roots remain takes the title followed by gigantium and then hearts remain for me, those are prob my top 3. Pendulous skin is awesome tho no doubt about it

@puppetmaster8551 Год назад

Such a special and unique album. Mastodon has the best discography in metal since their debut remission in 2002, I hope to see you continue your mastodon journey in the future here, really can’t go wrong with any mastodon record, there is truly not another band out there like them. Great pick up of the queens of the Stone Age sound on colony of birchmen, Josh Homme of QOTSA featured on that song and did some vocals on it so that’s why you’re picking up the QOTSA sound there.

@JimNewstead Год назад

I can't believe I actually picked up on a thing, I thought it was just a "sounds a bit like..." moment!
