Mastodon - More Than I Could Chew [Official Audio]

[@DMFK1981]

There’s something magical about hearing a song for the first time. Having my brain completely blank; to be taken on a journey where I am unaware of where I will end up. What an incredible masterpiece this song is. Maybe it’s the weed. Maybe not.

LYRICS: Will there ever be a moment I won't feel this heat coming up from ground? Will there ever be a time when I can show myself through open doors? All I need is you to tell me how to reconcile this guilt and shame I’ve already ripped myself to pieces and I've given it away All the weight lies upon my shoulders from The great disruption It's hard to breathe inside these waves of doubt Tidal distraction Can you tell me how to wish away this chaos making my head spin? Can you tell me how to soothe the savage beast locked up inside these walls? Will there ever be a place that I can hide and heal these open sores? Or do I have to cut them out and eat them as my people adore? All the weight lies upon my shoulders from The great disruption It’s hard to breathe inside these waves of doubt Tidal distraction I have, I have lost my way Reaching, reaching for today I have, I have lost my way Reaching, reaching for today Say when And I'll come running back Say when And I'll come running back Say when And I'll come running back Say when And I'll come running back

[@trzigweid]

Love how this album is simultaneously something completely new for them and entirely classic Mastodon. It's unreal.

[@Naniamania3]

@@trzigweid that's the true sign of a band that actually grows, matures, and explores. As much as I love all of the old stuff going back to Slick Leg, it's killer to watch them grow and evolve. There are a lot of fans that want a Remission or a Blood Mountain or a CTS over and over. Not me. They already did those albums and they're masterpieces. Life is meant to be lived in the windshield, not the rearview mirror. People evolve. Musicians and bands should too. Mastodon is adults with families and a different POV on life than when they were in their teens, 20s, 30s, 40s. I was lucky enough to see them in Atlanta back in the club days before they blew up and we knew back then they were going to be amazing. We had no idea just how amazing.

[@frightenedsoul]

@@Naniamania3 they remind me of Deftones in that way

[@455jefferson455]

Brann is such a great drummer. One of the best of the modern age. But fuck. His vocals have gotten to a point that they may have become more impressive than the drum work. Unbelievable.

[@theloniuspunk383]

[@mindofmatter071]

Fact check....this is true!

[@whizzercone]

Brent is the best vocalist (not that Brann and Troy aren't awesome). He needs to sing more.

[@puppetmaster8551]

@@whizzercone maybe in studio, he’s absolutely not the best vocalist live, and was pretty damn awful for many yrs after he fucked his voice up. He pretty clearly doesn’t like to sing that much in mastodon I’m sure because he doesn’t want to sing a lot at shows. All of their actual singing voices have gotten better in recent years tho because they started to focus on it more

It's a song singing about satanism and how its not that bad because they can just fast to be as powerful as profits to bring oppression, lust, and pain to the population, to god. Yea I love this band too, but lately I've been modifying the lyrics for the sake of our existence.

[@stinkybojangles4128]

Sludgiest track on the album and my god Brann's voice is so angelic and Troy's voice in the bridge is almost Peter Steele-esque followed by a really pretty riff and Brent takes us home with a tasty little outro solo that tastes just like Ritz cheese crispers!

[@puppetmaster8551]

Troy only sings the chorus on this. The bridge is brann and then when it’s repeated it’s Brann layered with himself. When they perform it live tho it’s Brann and then Brann and Troy together because brann obviously can’t sing both the high and low parts by himself.

[@robertjones1886]

[@graveterrordesigns7499]

Probably my favorite off this album. Killer verse guitar riff, awesome verse vocals by Brann, solid good ol switch off with Troy for chorus vocals and just when you think it couldn't get better you get a great change with a Dirty B solo and more Brann vocals. That ending just grabbed me and something about it was new but familiar and after several listens it struck me that it is very similar (but not stealing anything) to AIC's Nutshell in chord progression and in so evokes that same visceral emotion for me. Another solid Mastodon album and this is one of the highlights imo that keeps me running back.

[@capoditutticapos19]

interesting. im not musically inclined but now you pointed it out, i get a similar vibe from this song and nutshell.

[@CJGuitarClips]

[@thimovijfschaft3271]

That reverb on the low harmonies... That's just beautiful

[@muttonmark]

Mastodon is one of my favorite bands, period. I really do love all of their albums, with Leviathan and CTS being my absolute favorites. This album is just so massive. I have to admit, upon my first 1-5 trips through it all, it seemed like every song was meandering aimlessly through chaos. The timing and riff changes seemed so abrupt, and unexpected, that every had this unfinished feel. I really didn't feel it from start to end. It was a lot to take in and try to understand. Now, fast forward to about the 20th time through this album, and I admit that this is entirely different level for Mastodon. The arrangements, the hooks and switches have become much more familiar and I now have a sense for where each song is meant to go. It's a thing of beauty. Thank you Mastodon.

[@iann23]

Love this, it's like their most metal (random time signatures etc.) but also most melodic and straight rock at the same time

[@odiec5567]

I was just thinking this, my first listen through of this album it felt disjointed and I wasn't a huge fan. Now on probably the 10th listen and it just clicks, there is some powerful stuff on this one.
