I like Matt M., discovered Sleep in the 90s. This song catapulted me into a different, more dynamic world of heavy music, likewise it unearthed a lot of bands, I either didn't know about, or slept on. I am forever grateful, to my old buddy, for sharing "The Art of Self Defense", with me when I was more than bored of xHardcorex; grateful to have seen all of the HOF lineups; they're more than heavy, they're spiritual!
Bro, you nailed it. Couldn't have said that better myself. Remission is still one of my favorite Mastodon albums. They're better musicians now than they were back then but they became kind of gimmicky and lost there way. With that being said, Mastodons new album is pretty fucking good. Give it a listen. Still doesn't hold a candle to anything by HOF or The Sword. Warp Riders is one of my all time favs
Mastodon's new album is amazing! different and less grungier than there earlier stuff, but they're way better musicians than they were back then. I love mastodon a lot and would never say anything bad about them. High on Fire is a different beast and should be treated as such. HOF is the best of the best right now followed by The Sword. Both of those bands have the stoner metal scene on lockdown. The Swords WARP RIDERS is the classic of all classics and HOF Snakes for the Divine blows me away!
I was not "in the know" about this song in 05, was in baghdad, Imagine blasting this on the fucking loudspeakers !!!! The insurgents wouldve commited suicide hahaha
Agreed the remix is interesting to compare with, but the original is vastly superior. The drums on the new remix sound like tin cans, the drums on the original sound like thunder.
The drums are just as brutal as the riff
Thank God for the metal drummers who know how to groove and make shit sound phat and heavy at the same time
Brutal has to refer to death metal, not sludge.
Brutal is as Brutal does

@@mustard92 yeah I know they worked hard on it but I wish they would leave both albums available for streaming

No band can put more hair on your chest than High On Fire.
Well put!
Very well said.
Allman Brothers
@@WhosTheFuckingLion they’re good too.
Yessir!
ngl i prefer this to the remastered version because the strumming is clearer
Matt Pike took the holy riffcraft of Iommi, and transformed it into Bushido.
Sick comment man
Blessed is he ascending from the Hyper Sonic Mountains of Eridû, Home of the Annûnäkí.
This song makes me want to flip my car.
Good one Sir! 😂
😂
FOR REAL
I love descriptions of admiration like that. Me too and fucking well done.
Yer gettin flip wild like a flip child
Dude, Matt's fucking riffs just
Dude
Ya dude brings sludge to a new level. Fuck ya
Hardening of the Warrior
The burning
That will never die
Melding of the Riffchild
So mad this isn’t on streaming or available to buy
I jammed this while invading baghdad and before that in Kuwait I'd lay in the back of my HEMMT and fall asleep to it
On of my favorit songs from one of my favorit bands
This feels very Doomish/Sludgish. Gotta love Stoner jams
Ahhh... And the whistle blows when the train is in loco motion.
Yeah, there are a lot of bands that are inspired by High on Fire. Mastodon still fucking rules.
High on fire the best
Testosterone levels increase with every listen.
Never mind Tupac, THIS is the sound of Oakland.
Neurosis is the sound of oakland
Ahhh Oakland 🤤or as I like to call it Baltimore of the West Coast 😉🖤🤘🏻
Bands like these guys should be mainstream instead of metal bands like Metallica.
My god what a song!! How can I listen to other metal music after this?
GREAT SONG! THESE GUYS ROCK.

Wonder if they'll play this live more now
I just listened to the remaster and tho I liked it, I prefer this version. Sounds more raw, the new one sounds so... Clean, I don't know.
Agreed the remix is interesting to compare with, but the original is vastly superior. The drums on the new remix sound like tin cans, the drums on the original sound like thunder.
Deep weed sets emotion,hardening of the weapon
"Sharpening our Weapons"
Blood Mountain or Leviathan, can't really decide
leviathan
Anyone know if it'd be possible to get a version of the song with the vocals enhanced? Would like to hear that in comparison.
@MrVigon since he didn't, its lyrics to the song dopesmoker by sleep
New HoF is ok stuff, but this old style, this just blasts it better.
Fucking elegant and brilliant
I agree with your first statement.
Pourquoi en France on a pas de super groupe comme celui là ?
i keep looking for something better, but cant seem to find it?
baghead being right give me aerosmith
Super goupe
VOIVOD!!!!!
What's wrong with new Mastodon?
@JUSTIN030783 thats my best friend posted :)
Both
@jerkmcgerkin Fuckin' Funny. Thanks 4 That!
What's wrong with The Hunter?
YEAH - why the fuck didn´t know these guys ??? Oo
666th listen. I am now a man
THIS IS KICKASS!
2017???
2020!
The Hunter is totally awesome. So is every other Mastodon record. Haters need to take a nap and eat a sandwich.
Voivod... hahaha.
Mastodon is great, but piss off with the 'knew them before' bullshit. I, admittedly, think like that a lot myself but it's bollocks really.
is this just awful quality or is this like the original?
Be careful what you say next sir
@lambofgod666ish mastodon sucks that's why every time i try to play a album by them i end up playing a voivod album to clean my mind of that shit
sorry but I can't like songs that support terrorism
please tell me this is satire...
Then don't sing the national anthem at sport events.
kook
Terrorists aren’t man enough to listen to this …..they like that disco dance bullshit like in the village scene in “Borat” 🤨🤷🏼♂️for real 😉
