MASTODON - Remisson (Full Album Stream)

[@notsure1969]

[@SIP5060]

Honestly, I think Leviathan is better than this. Crusher Destroyer, March of the Fire Ants, Trainwreck, & Elephant Man are all great songs, but the album as a whole is a bit ehh for me.

Why is nautical/aquatic themed metal always the best? Leviathan From Mars to Sirius Everything by Ahab

no fucking bad albums in there discography and not a single song that i havent enjoyed by them so far. Same with Gojira, my 2 favourite fucking bands right now.

[@ridleyroid9060]

God, Crusher Destroyer and March Of The Fire Ants...2 of the best opening tracks in metal history. Like, those 2 songs just perfectly summarize the entire band. Crushing, catchy, ethereal, epic, sludgy and obscenely well written. Like it or not, you're going to have every note of every song etched in to your brain. I can't believe more bands didn't take this segmented songwriting approach mastodon did. Like, rarely does mastodon write a filler section, also, their use of pick-patterns with notably serene and unorthodox chord shapes is just ogasmic.

[@demonhalo67]

I remember seeing Mastodon 19 years ago during the early days when not many people knew who they were. Still have and wear my remission t-shirt from the tour.
