"Blood and Thunder" by Mastodon
Strong Songs
Metal Metal - Part 1 - The New Song, Part 2
The song is called "Thitis" and it's a classic massodon tune. The band goes into an odd time signature in the middle of the song. There are some nice gtarmonies and a little bit of phrygian action, which is cool. This is where brand ayler finally gets to really embrace his inner prague drummer ad.
White! Whale! Holy! Grail!
Strong Songs kicks off year four by getting H-E-A-V-Y, with an analysis of Mastodon's "Blood and Thunder." Pass straight past the Mellow Meadows, through the Forests and the Foothills of Rock, and see if you can reach the summit of Hard Mountain. The view from up there is amazing.
