Mastodon Debut NEW Adult Swim Video for "Deathbound"

Mastodon never stops pushing the envelope and they always awe their thousands of worldwide fans with their original way of making music, producing videos, and performing on stage. The band is currently busy in Europe for a summer tour that includes Sonisphere Festival (all dates), Rock Im Park, Rock Am Ring, Roskilde Festivals and more. They will also be performing at The Gorge in Seattle on July 30 with Soundgarden, the Meat Puppets, and Queens of the Stone Age.

The band has also been working on their fifth studio album titled "The Hunter" (tentatively scheduled for an October release). The majority of the album was recorded at Doppler Studios in Atlanta, Georgia with producer Mike Elizondo. The drums were tracked at Sound City Studios, which is were Nirvana recorded their hit album "Nevermind". Some confirmed songs are:

- "Blasteroids"
- "The Octopus Has No Friends"
- "Stargasm"
- "Curl of the Burl"
- "All the Heavy Lifting"
- "The Sparrow"
- "The Ruiner"
- "Dry Bone Valley"

"When you listen to the songs, they don't sound as 'fun' as we perceive them to be, I guess; it's still pretty extremely heavy material. We had a few songs that were kind of, not left over from 'Crack The Skye', but just stuff that we wanted to be on that album, but that album kind of took on a whole different thing of its own and there were a few stragglers that were super-heavy and crazy that didn't make it, and we finally got to put them on this record. And then we wrote a whole bunch of brand new stuff. There's, like, 14 songs that we recorded. And it's sort all over the place — a lot of different sounds. Some straight-up classic-rock-sounding songs, straight-up death metal-sounding songs and some completely bizarre, weirdo rock songs that we're not really sure what they are, but we love them." - Brann Dailor (On Metal Hammer)
