Didnt see any LYRICS in comments so here ya go homies! LYRICS: Wrathful ones nine eyes gaze Holding skulls Filled and laced With human blood Shades of darkened skies Emptiness Twilight holding through Offering Life in zenith Bulls blood shot eyes Flattened portrait of the night sky Feel crust hum Facing the North Vapor space Between heaven and Earth Wisdom and the knower A planet collide Divisible we fall Hear dirt waves Wading forth Vapor space How long has it been since we flew through the shadows I have walked on many other planets Sinister twin Choking on fear Bonded iron Sink to the core
When this came out my mom was recovering from a surgery which resulted in a stroke, she became paralyzed from the left side permanently. As a teen I would walk through fields at night screaming along to this whole album. It helped heal me, still does. There is pure emotion here, pure coddling through it's entire sound. Its going to be alright; follow the sounds and crack the sky.
I love how this song goes around full circle. It goes through 3 different segments until it reaches the one with Brent's verse, then they do Brent's again and play each segment reversed. Very clever song structure imo
@@pascalg16 I'm not saying that Tool has used that exact method, it just sounds like something Tool would do. But since you asked, 7empest is the first that comes to mind. The structure has the same vibe.
Awesome to find out that Brann has a signature 'Ghost' Cymbal named after his intense use of it on this song. The man is a legend and his drumming is absolutely essential to the sound of Mastodon.
Really they are all necessary for the sound to be correct given that 3 of the 4 are world class musicians and vocalists and Bill is a magician on guitar
I usually listen to hip hop..rap...but this band got me listening to more than one song... i like this lol 🤨👌👌 their melodies and their singing is like a whole story, happily surprised. Artwork is really nice. Glad I decided to chek it out. All this cuz I saw the vinyl at a store and was like woahhhh crazy artwork who is this 🤣. 👌👌👌
@@coreywho2972 My man if you’ve listened to all their albums - The flawlessness that is Aneima - Followed by the greatness of Lateralus, 10,000 days & Fear Inoculum - & that’s your opinion -I’m a bit surprised but to each his own - Musicianship is second to none, & the lyrical content carries a great deal of weight - Mastodon is/was incredible - They peaked with 🩸🏔 & Crack the skye - Their last three albums haven’t been as consistent from beginning to end but there’s some kick ass tracks on all of them - That & Hinds licks & Brann’s tenacity never gets old - Check out Trivium’s Shogun if you haven’t already - Hands down, their finest achievement. 🤘🏼
@@archstanton1161 Yeah man, 2 of my best friends are Tool fanatics, like alot of other people they always try to get me to listen to them but nothing has ever really peaked my interest, Shogun however is something I have recently got into and am inlove with. As someone who grew up with more hard-core brutal stuff i never liked Trivium (probably why I don't like Tool very much aswell) but Shogun was a jem that flew right over me. That album is incredible.
Man this whole album is straight fire all the way through. Hadn't listened in several years and really I didnt appreciate this as much as I should have when it came out. What the hell was I thinking?
That's Mastodon. Someone gave me Leviathan when it came out and I was like eh that was cool. Then Blood Mountain came out and I bought it cause that's what you did back then. Didn't get it either. A couple months later I drove to Orlando FL (I'm in Miami) and it can take 3-5 hours. I listened to Blood Mountain 4 times. I went back and got everything they ever made. Many of my friends same thing. Hated them at first. Couple months later they were begging to see them live. At the time Leviathan was called one of the most important metal albums of all time because at the time it was considered to be "dying" and it was supposed to save the genre. Did it? Who knows. But it got me in to Progressive metal
I've got the instrumental version. It was my go to smoking album. Really makes you appreciate the whole album that way -- once you come back to the regular version. Try it!
Troy's vocals are so underrated, but this is one of those tracks I think people finally appreciate them. He makes this song WHOLE. I cannot get enough of this album. I lose it at 1:47.
Honestly Idk why they are underrated. When I first got into this band, he was easily my favorite singer of the bunch. Probably the most "metal" vocals out of them. Brent's voice is very unique, and Brann is nice, but man Troy just has the grit
Dude I am so happy last year I traveled to Ashbury park NJ to see this album played live in front of my face. 100% one of my top 5 favor live music experiences
This is sooo amazing. If you watch this in the right frame of mind, the album cover flashes, spins & moves. Thank you Mastodon & mushrooms filled with much magic.
Im ashamed to admit I didnt really get into Mastodon until The Hunter, but im so glad I got to see them do this tour again a few years ago in Coney Island. Its one of my favorite albums and coming out of the show after Coheed with all the fog from the sea all over the place was super sick. The guy who cracked his head open on the boardwalk stairs after the concert that the cops just left there was pretty cool too
@@marcjamin1357 it's Russian territory that was stolen from Finland, you should definitely visit this place of you are in love with Canadian or Alaska nature
@@gregtheflyingwhale Yes i know. I am reading a history book about the Barbarossa campaign. I am curently in the chapter where they discuss the Finish/Russian front in Karelia. Wich reminded me of this song. I'd love to visit the place sometimes, another place in my long list i suppose. Cheers.
yes it is, except for the "how long..." part at 2:36, that's brent. amazing depth in troy's voice, it always keeps echoing in my head after song's over
i'm actually Karelian and i can say that there is no people here who would be 100% Karelian but everyone here has a karelian ancestor. actually i'm really curious why is this song called like this? how do people from the other side of our planet know about a small region of Russia?
@@wrgang8473 Well, this is a concept album, which tells us a story about a man who is devoid from whole body movement, and travels through astral trips, but on one of those his souls loses contact with his body, and goes to Rasputin times in Russia to get our beloved lover of the Russian Queen (pun intended) helping him to return back into his physical body. Yes, Mastodon does drugs

Didnt see any LYRICS in comments so here ya go homies! LYRICS:
Wrathful ones nine eyes gaze
Holding skulls
Filled and laced
With human blood
Shades of darkened skies
Emptiness
Twilight holding through
Offering
Life in zenith
Bulls blood shot eyes
Flattened portrait of the night sky
Feel crust hum
Facing the North
Vapor space
Between heaven and Earth
Wisdom and the knower
A planet collide
Divisible we fall
Hear dirt waves
Wading forth
Vapor space
How long has it been since we flew through the shadows
I have walked on many other planets
Sinister twin
Choking on fear
Bonded iron
Sink to the core
When this came out my mom was recovering from a surgery which resulted in a stroke, she became paralyzed from the left side permanently. As a teen I would walk through fields at night screaming along to this whole album. It helped heal me, still does. There is pure emotion here, pure coddling through it's entire sound. Its going to be alright; follow the sounds and crack the sky.
Yes it's gonna be alright, rock on
Such a coincidence, Brent wrote this entire album recovering in a hospital
Love and respect for your mom, BRO! In the end, this is only thing true music blesses all with!! Blessed be you both!
I know this is a year late, but I do hope you’re doing well ❤️ stay strong!
@@adalmeister666 Thank you so much for your sentiments. It means so much to me.
Definitely my favorite Mastodon song of all time, also my favorite one to play on bass.
Ditto! Such a great mix of parts to play
The bass is so melodic, almost like me of Paul’s playing on Abby Road.
You play bass? Hell yeah bro🤘
I love how this song goes around full circle. It goes through 3 different segments until it reaches the one with Brent's verse, then they do Brent's again and play each segment reversed. Very clever song structure imo
It's a very Tool thing to do, and I love it a lot.
@@neeltheother2342 Which tool songs use this method?
@@pascalg16 I'm not saying that Tool has used that exact method, it just sounds like something Tool would do.
But since you asked, 7empest is the first that comes to mind. The structure has the same vibe.
@@neeltheother2342 you mean sounds like a very mastodon thing to do since the tempest was realsed after Crack the Skye. No hate, just saying.
@@brienmaybe.4415 he was more comparing than saying it was directly tools method
Awesome to find out that Brann has a signature 'Ghost' Cymbal named after his intense use of it on this song. The man is a legend and his drumming is absolutely essential to the sound of Mastodon.
Really they are all necessary for the sound to be correct given that 3 of the 4 are world class musicians and vocalists and Bill is a magician on guitar
My BRANN!!
This album goes into the cosmos. It dares to go where no album has gone before.
Lateralus by Tool, already made the trip.
@@vinyldiary6664 Not like this, no.
@@pascalg16 this song kind has vibes like The Grudge
@@pascalg16a DIFFERENT trip, but still amazing works of art

Go deeper my friend, this album is phenomenal
Experience Tool next and you won’t turn back
@@archstanton1161 Personally i don't see all the hype around Tool, Mastodon is far more superior and complicated in my opinion.

Listening to this album while playing witcher 3 makes the game even more perfect and the music feels even more magestic.
Hector Mendoza ayy I do exactly the same thing
I should've seen this comment before i had finished the Witcher 3
nice profile picture

Man this takes me back to all those mornings working on the Christmas tree farm.
Here is is Christmas
This whole album is peak Mastodon
Wait the image didn't move before?
Looks like you've been ingesting the right substances to listen to this album.
@@BOBOUDA Skooma and moon sugar
They uploaded a new version to yt.
are you sure this one is moving
It always moved.
Troy's vocals are so underrated, but this is one of those tracks I think people finally appreciate them. He makes this song WHOLE. I cannot get enough of this album. I lose it at 1:47.

Today i hear them for the first time, what a band this is , i loved it they are perfect😇🥰😍🤗❤💯👍💪💪💪 ser

Oh boy....i have missed this song so much... right now its exactly what i needed to hear. Exhausted after work and still needing to do more work😂
Viva Mastodon carajo!
carajito
Best song on the album.
Change my mind.
Mine as well
But that divinations tho
It's a tie between this song and The Last Baron for me.
1:45 makes me want to battle a huge Lovecraftian monster under a crazy thunderstorm
A Hoonter must hoont...
@@NathanielDoherty A hoonter is never alone
You would die in this scenario

That part from 3:48 reminds me a bit of Tool's Schism.
Stupendous song.
Top 5 in my books love this band
Me2
The best band top 5 in my books
🤘🤘🤘👍👍👍👍
Thank you for keeping Karelia alive! 🙏🏻
An epic of music.
Wait. Are all the visualisers the same or have I just been curling on the burl?
Nigel Fears the weather such an awful album that was
One of my favorite tracks by them! Reminds me of Neurosis.
I think the frontman of Neurosis has done guest vocals on a few of their tracks.
I live in Karelia. It does sound like it has to!
I was just watching photos of karelia landscapes on google while listening to the song. Looks pretty.

@@gregtheflyingwhale Thank you! I will.
GODDAAAMNNNNNNN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
como me gusta esta cancion brodas
4:30 I can't get enough of that riff it's 🔥
Troy's bass playing is great on this track. Its a shame how often he gets drowned out of the mix. Great album regardless
Oooohhhh my! Awesome! 🤘🏿
Is that Troy singing?
yes it is, except for the "how long..." part at 2:36, that's brent.
amazing depth in troy's voice, it always keeps echoing in my head after song's over
Arguably Troy's best vocal work on "Crack the Skye"
Yeah, at least the voice thats singing the verse (the starting vocals) is, but im only 1min in right now
2000% rock in roll
HOW LONG HAS IT BEEN SINCE WE FLEW THROUGH SHADOWS I HAVE WALKED ON MANY OTHER PLANETS
1:45 🥰🥰🥰
this is karelia's theme song
Here after the Instagram post. Unf. I love mastodon
That's hardcore
Couldn't imagine playing this live
sinister twin
choking on fear
bonded iron
sink to the core.
Song is so good its ridiculous
Как житель Карелии так и не понял причём здесь Карелия (Karelia).🤔
I’ve never heard the hole album before is it good if so I’ll be right in there
I made a PowerPoint presentation with this song for college.....I think I got an A because people were just flat confused and blown away hahahah 😅
And it was about the Olympics in Kosovo......
Sumerian descendants making music. Epic!
