WOW! This is my kind of stuff. I don’t think I’ve ever heard a Mastodon song before. Never even gave them a chance because they’re metal. I am going to have to go listen to their other song now and see if I have the same reaction. I kept skipping it when going through the backlog videos. His (their?) voice was great. This song is probably about as deep into metal as I can go before it starts to turn me off but I really liked this one.
Yeah their later stuff is more metal/rock, but completely unique. They are close to “stoner rock” but I think but their own unique style. They are worth your time especially their last 4 albums if you are more into this sound.
i love Mastodon! Saw them this year with Lorna Shore and Gojira. I'd like to see you do one from their most recent album, Hushed and Grim. Maybe More Than I Could Chew, or Teardrinker. Teardrinker has a cool bass solo.
Imo half the songs on recent albums are all really good, but half kinda meh since after The Hunter. Up to and including The Hunter I would have agreed, but to each their own as they say. Still respect Mastadan a ton, epic band! :-)
@@soakedbearrd I agree in so far that it's just solid imo, but March of the Fire Ants and Mother Puncher are still highlights in their discography to me.
This album is fantastic. This one and OMATS don’t seem to get the recognition they deserve imo. Btw the video for this song rocks. As far as suggestions: jaguar god (off same album), chimes at midnight, mortal soil, stargasm, the beast, tread lightly, teardrinker, toe to toes, hearts alive, sparrow….I mean they have a lot of good songs those are just some of mine.
Kewl.........very kewl DEFINITELY fire 🖤.........think about Einar Selvik who did many of the songs for the series "Vikings" - he uses traditional Viking-style instruments and sings in Old Norse. Very, very excellent.
I thought I'd drop off another suggestion in case you're interested. "George Benson - Give Me The Night (Official Music Video)" (by the channel: RHINO) If you guys enjoy jazz and soul then you'll love listening to George Benson (👂🍬) this is ear candy smooth as butter. 👌💯💙
I might be 70, nut Ive always loved "good" Metal....great musicianship, great "chemistry", as Ryan said. I like all different genre's, styles of music: Zeppelin, through Nirvana', and much in-between (not much "disco"). But this Mastodon definely has got the "sound" and feel of the Metal I love!
ua-cam.com/video/eyCEexG9xjw/v-deo.htmlsi=cdu8WY0L9QS230SC I agree with Ryan that the melodies in the vocals are what help distinguish this song and make it quite listenable to viewers. I'm not a current follower of this genre, as Nick seems to be, but what I've heard from this band and others like "Avenge Sevenfold" are helping to keep what I refer as "hard rock" (or what others may see as "metal") going in a wasteland of pre-packaged top 40 pop performers that are all just variations off each other. In the intro, Nick mentioned the significant themes addressed in this song's lyrics. Of course, that is not rare in "hard rock"/"heavy metal." The above link is to the well known 1982 song "Run To The Hills" by Iron Maiden. What few may understand, but might see by looking at the lyrics, is that the song's main theme is European intervention in "the New World" and what that normally meant for the indigenous people (who may be referred to as Native Americans in the United States). So, "hard rock" & "metal," bringing a bit more to the table than just head banging! 😂
Hi guys ! I guess you must have a loooong list ,I thing you should add this particular song from Tourniquet, called "Healing Waters Of The Tigris". True fans of them should agree :)
I don’t agree with you guys, now there really is little good music, there is modern music, but there are no hits, few people listen to it, and this did not start today or yesterday, but somewhere after 1992, during this period the music rapidly declined, I’m not against modern music, but there’s essentially nothing; if it existed, we would hear it. Regarding the group Mastodon, a mystical song, dark fog, gloom, dark house, sometimes I listen to this, but I’m not always in the mood for such music.
Both agree and disagree, there are few if any really great bands like in the 60s/70s/80s/90s and the good old style seems to have mostly disappeared. But there are some good bands out there, depending on your taste, but music does not have the same pull these days as it had some decades ago. One large problem i believe is discoverability, how do new musicians get noticed? Hardly anyone listen to the radio and it only plays old hits or 'pop' music so there is no real hope there. And how often do you see music advertisements? The only ways really are trying to get spots in concerts with larger bands, or put stuff on the internet and pray you get noticed.
@@mr.cuddles1805 An alternative to radio is the Internet, the main thing is talented musicians and ideas, if they exist, popularity will always come, this is the problem with today's music
Pretty bullshit opinion honestly. Just because mainstream music isnt what it once was on the radio doesnt mean theres no good music. Theres tons, you just gotta find it. UA-cam makes it easy honestly you just need to know how to work the algorithm.
The riff alone is hypnotic. 🤘🏽
I can’t not make a stank face the second I hear that riff
Never heard this band before, but I actually liked it. Killer drummer and sings as well. That’s talent. 🤟🔥
Do yourself a favor and check out these rest of their catalog. Amazing musicianship throughout.

Right on, Sue.
I’m not a metal fan either but I like this!

The music video slaps for this.
Yup. And I prefer it over the “Show Yourself” video.
I loved this album front to cover.

Great job, Nick & Ryan👏🎉🥰
Like Opeth, they mellowed as they progressed, but will always make your face cramp from smiling.
One of my top 5 metal bands. Great album too!
First time hearing this band, and I supprised myself, didn't think I would like it but did!
There's not a bad Mastadon album
Imo half the songs on recent albums are all really good, but half kinda meh since after The Hunter. Up to and including The Hunter I would have agreed, but to each their own as they say. Still respect Mastadan a ton, epic band! :-)
The first album is rough….but after that they all have something good or great in them.
@@soakedbearrd I agree in so far that it's just solid imo, but March of the Fire Ants and Mother Puncher are still highlights in their discography to me.
@@lenni-hazels yeah best songs on the album for sure
PLEASE do more from this album. Sultan's Curse, Ancient Kingdoms, and Word to the Wise are ABSOLUTE BANGERS!
This album is fantastic. This one and OMATS don’t seem to get the recognition they deserve imo. Btw the video for this song rocks.

Love that show!!!
I bet Nick was school captain, I just get those vibes.
Fun fact the drummer from Mastodon Brann Dailor sings many of their songs.
Literally a stank face riff. Joints so good. Mastadon are suuuuper talented & got plenty of jams.

I am also in that age group. I have never heard them before.... now on my play list!

this is what happens when you let an awesome drummer/singer take over a song!
Hi guys ! I guess you must have a loooong list ,I thing you should add this particular song from Tourniquet, called "Healing Waters Of The Tigris". True fans of them should agree :)
This channel needs more subs.
That was awesome guy's!!!
Brann Daiolor’s background includes jazz and funk metal inflluence..heavy but good use of space
I kinda heard young Ted Nugent but the song felt more like Rush.
Have you listened to The HU - Wolf Totem feat. Jacoby Shaddix of Papa Roach (Official Music Video)?
yuck
Still is not my thing. I do give credit where it’s due, Brad, the lead singer, in this song has a great vocals.
There's plenty of good music out there. I hate that saying. Its lazy.
🙁 Ty won't be on as much anymore, won't see the 3 amigo much. Anyway, not crazy about this type of music. ✌️
