I will upload the rest for you guys just be patient !

[@tristan8823]

one of the greatest songs ever, i refuse to believe it was created by mere mortals

[@Oborowatabinostk]

Its definitely a sell your soul to the devil kinda song...

[@shillian4770]

@@Oborowatabinostk you just have to do plenty of Psychedelics and loads of guitar practice

[@gwagb27]

This and seabeast are amazing, the outro’s are so heavy!

[@Piece-Of-Time]

You just need to read Moby Dick

[@laodamasdimopoulos2655]

at least 10 years ahead their time.

[@shillian4770]

no one ever caught up to them, timless my dude

[@justinshuffler4468]

Brent is one of the most under rated guitarist. He’s all feel. This solo and “The Hunter” is pure example.

[@hyperstimmed]

him and Jerry Cantrell are both amazing at coming up with musically brilliant solos that aren't necessarily difficult to learn technically, but require a very good sense of music to pull off properly

[@puppetmaster8551]

@@hyperstimmed Cantrell is a god, one of the best songwriters to ever live. Brilliant guitarist with out needing to shred a bunch either, dimebag even mentioned back in the day it was crazy how much emotion Jerry could get out of his guitar and that’s a lot cooler than just shredding. Cantrell is one of the best to ever do it, lastly he hes got the Goat tone in my book. Anyway Brent is the fuckin man too, fantastic guitarist and awesome musician, his solo on roots remain is one of my favorite ever, also shout out bill guy is a fantastic rhythm guitarist and a masterful riff writer.

[@andy2069]

This solo is welding the fury of the gods

[@vilhelmcasp]

this song is absolutely mind blowing. one of my favorite songs ever

[@ComradeRichey]

This is the best kind of metal - there is so much expression and emotion in the music, it's brilliantly composed and expertly delivered. It's not just NOISE. Mastodon are fucking geniuses.

[@johnnybravo5726]

simply radical

[@BEASTAGEv2]

Damn those last 3 minutes are intense

[@gwagb27]

This and seabeast

[@RolloZx]

The ending riff is one of the greatest in all of metal

[@chriswick7987]

Fucking amazing. I love how Brent gets in some extra solo instead of just the steady 2 minute outro riff😂

[@JHM123]

Thanks for posting this dude. And on a side note...it takes balls to OPEN your show with the best song written in the history of metal.

[@stiggyyyyy]

I just hope to see them one day where they actually play this. 3 times and counting, not yet.

[@Amdus289]

Lmao Troy almost smashing his bass at the end

[@planetbob94]

Dear God I love this whole song, but the chills I get from 11:00 minutes to the end are unbelievable! Easily my favorite song of all time, perfection!

[@MrAntihumanism]

troy is playing his ass off. I remember his finger picking being so intense.

[@notsure1969]

IS that why he keeps checking to see if his ass is still there?

[@TheSecondNature]

one of their best songs.which is to say a lot. outstanding

[@alaindewitt]

The end of this video is so great because Troy is just headbanging away because he knows they are KILLING IT!

[@Mintis-bh4rr]

One of the greatest bands of all time.

[@benthompson8425]

March 2019 and still going strong.

I'm from the future, they did

[@jasonchristopher5225]

The last few minutes of this song make me want to go to war barehanded

[@javas16]

One of the best songs ever heard. 14 minutes is not enough to describe it.

[@APRS]

I remember hearing this as a teen. Totally changed my taste!

[@alexperez3651]

Damn and they OPENED with this. Amazing

[@alafujah]

This song gives me purpose

[@chancelihauntedil703]

[@ext93]

Thanks Jimi

[@snickerblitz]

I revisit this performance constantly, I can not begin to express my thanks at uploading this!

[@gwagb27]

Although they have gotten more refined and precise, there early years aggression was unmatched.

[@ext93]

I wish I could see them in this era. Leviathan + blood mountain are my fav mastodon records. Didn't get into mastodon until 2009ish though and that was the first time i saw them. Crack the skye just came out so they mostly played that. Saw them with BTBAM though so that was cool

[@kristinagwinett9159]

I'm almost positive this was an encore, but still...to even hear this live is mind boggling. Made my life worth while when I saw them several years ago.

[@wes1hoskins]

They opened with Hearts a lot back then

[@OpenmindedHusker1]

This song is truly a masterpiece.

[@ThrashRoC]

[@kristinagwinett9159]

This song after the first time I heard it as a teen is still my favorite today, still gives me chills..I can never get enough. Amazing video-thanks for posting.

[@Ledface117]

Masterpiece. Simple as that

[@meltyice84]

This is perfection

[@SupraTompan]

This is beyond awesome. These guys where elite before they even knew it. The level of precision is ridiculous, and this was 2006.

[@Primal-Dude]

So happy i saw them play this song live in 2014

[@zoltanrudolf]

Behold the biggest, best and most important heavy metal band in the world!

[@shillian4770]

This was the peak of Mastodon, anyone who was here at these leviathan tour shows I envy so fucking much. If there was a time machine I would take it back to these days.

[@HairlessMonk]

I goddamn love this song

[@reincarn8tion]

Speechless!!! Just amazing!! Thank you!!

[@21Cayque12]

This looks unbelieavable good for 2005. If it wasn't for beardless Troy I wouldnt believe it

[@davek5444]

[@smileysatanson3404]

brilliant guys... but imagine going on an acid trip on their show and just hear their lyrics and see the drug work its magic :/

[@jakemertz2660]

Love watching performances of this song from the earlier tours, thanks for the upload. It's so raw and yet so polished, so rockin and proggy at the same time like ooooo ma gawd perfection

[@leviathon18]

parts of this song sound like metallica's the call of ktulu

[@almostdarkslide3851]

Right, two minutes in, sounds like Metallica. I always thought it was a tribute.

[@gcheq]

This is a fantastic song and a great instrumental performance. To be real though, these guys used to be pretty shitty live vocalists. It's good to know they've since cleaned that final aspect up, because it was about the only thing this band could possibly have left you wanting.

[@MsYablonsky]

Mike GC agree. Vocals are really poor here.

[@equanimityturban]

[@atlargeonline]

Hey man thanks for posting this here I hadn't added this show to youtube yet but looks and sounds great here. Just a heads up the date was 12/7/2005 not on the 12th. Check my channel for more Mastodon masters.

[@jr34v3r]

From 11:33 onward it's just Brent making sweet love to that guitar.

[@drewbru4]

hearts alive gives me a heart attack

[@braydenxwhelan1490]

AMB488 how ironic

[@ext93]

15 years ago 🥲

[@warpthead74]

What amp is brent using? Looks like a jcm 800 but all models i could find had either 2-4 inputs. Both of his only have one input.

[@C0L0SSUS]

Could well be a JCM 800 - the 2210 only has one input.

[@HairlessMonk]

Also, Brent literally looks like the cartoon on his shirt.

[@cygnusx2112]

well they opened the leviathan tour with Hearts Alive so they did open with it but this seems like its around the blood mountain era by the date so you're probably right this probably was the encore

[@albundie3]

you posted this on my birthday, how did you know?

[@stonedassassin4229]

I was hoping on a good close up on Brann Dailor destroying those drums throughout this song

[@MrBlack-wq7xe]

Troy bass is on?

[@ChikaNeca]

you can hear hints of it :D Bad quality video sadly. Good enough to enjoy for me tho.

[@krakenkiller]

Well that's it. I've seen the best song ever recorded live. Guess I can quit youtube now.

[@weedaddict2172]

Check out Brann in the High on Fire shirt

[@JORDANBAUMER]

branns white pants ftw!!!

[@flaffhorse]

03:05 "My Package and I salute you"

[@TaffyRaphie]

who's that on Hinds shirt? AHAB?

[@emeraldchylde]

Do I hear black metal in this?

[@spingo8236]

I mean mastodon are just a big mix of a ton of influences so I wouldn't be surprised

[@stonedassassin4229]

Where exactly do you hear black metal I’m curious? (not sarcasm)

[@Jabronie0]

Yes black metal and Lynyrd Skynyrd

[@TaffyRaphie]

Besides the guitarists vocals (I know some people like Brent's live vocals but I don't), this is just incredible. One of my favourite songs.

[@grooms63941]

Who is this Lars you speak of?

@DavidDecapitation nah i was listening to their new song rebel of babylon.

[@DeadlyDictator]

@DavidDecapitation i got my hopes up.. major letdown...

[@HUDDOSan]

Bill man just .......

[@DeadlyDictator]

favorite song by mastodon..... well maybe MAYBE passed up by march of the fire ants.... or elephant man....FUCK ITS ALL GOOD

[@cuzthatshoweyroll]

Song sounds great but the vocals are uh...hmmm. Its like how I would sound if I tried to get on stage and scream. Cuz I don't know how to. Troy sounds good though! Maybe he should've covered the chorus.

[@Ledface117]

Brent rips. He sounds like your average man that's just been stabbed in the intestines. Guttural and raw.

[@KenzieSchoenthaler]

Brann's wearing a Master Of Puppets tshirt xD

[@DavidDecapitation]

@DeadlyDictator You must not have been listening to the Justice or Ride the Lightning albums, because the drumming there was phenomenal.

[@notsure1969]

Viking metal at its finest!

[@KingWTFuck]

Uh wot

[@braydenxwhelan1490]

Shrums r the hell of a drug

[@fabiantomac1772]

Did Troy actually drool at 4:04?

[@shapeshifter7676]

I'm surprised he didn't spouts some water like a bloody whale, after that performance

[@Tyrannosaurine]

Man, these guys were really great around this era. Now the vocals are all clean and boring and they’ve just gotten too noodley. This song proves that longer song structures and elements of prog were always there, but you can do that AND bring the heavy. I just think their stuff now is too cleaned up and slick. Back then there was an edge that they just don’t have anymore.

[@shillian4770]

They as people aren't as angry anymore, so they don't really make heavy music which sucks because they have the ultimate ability to be heavier than any other band. Except the great High on Fire they are equal with them.

[@BertAtkin]

Fucking Berserk!

[@DavidDecapitation]

@DuringCreation I'm about to hit three of them... at the same time.

[@Qotsa2bh]

Lies, I saw plenty of them.

[@risenflame]

Well there's your mistake, listening to metallica

[@oska142857]

@JHM123 how can any person with at least a double digit IQ conjecture that the song they like most is the best song written in the history of metal? At least you should realise that keeping quiet is the best way to eschew people from finding out how many grey cells you have. (no offence to Mastodon here)

[@Tyrannosaurine]

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Even if it’s an amazingly fucking stupid opinion. I mean, this is a great jam. Undoubtedly Mastodon’s best song but if I had to name the greatest metal song of all time I’d have to go with it’s very origins: “Black Sabbath” by Black Sabbath from the album Black Sabbath. It’s entirety possible that they perfected it right out of the gate. Other contenders: “Slaughter of the Soul” by At the Gates “South of Heaven” by Slayer Or since dude is obviously all about the epics...”Dopesmoker” by Sleep.
