Mastodon & Lamb of God - Floods of Titan

[Giggles]

This is a pretty cool Leviathan era sounding Mastodon song:

Artwork is class too.

[Ducky]

The riff sounds like a Dealz version of Blood and Thunder.

As an aside, Leviathan is now 20 years old.

[John Kimble]

I'd have good time for Mastodon for the most part, even if some of their stuff has left me a bit cold of late. Absolutely zero interest in Lamb of God who are the epitome of bog standard, uninspiring metal. I suppose I could just listen to the track and make mind up but that's a collaboration that doesn't inspire much hope.

[Carnage]

It sounda like a Leviathan cast-off. It's fine but nothing to get excited about.

[Born of Fire]

I love Mastodon and that artwork is indeed class but the song is dull enough, feels like it's meant to kick into a high gear that never comes.

[John Kimble]

Just can't fathom why Mastodon who, love em or loathe them, are quite interesting in their own right, would collaborate with someone as outrightly dull, meat and potatoes, as Lamb of God.

[open face surgery]

Ya, Lamb of God are dogshit.

[Ducky]

Your man Chris Adler is a cool drummer, but sure even he bailed out on them.

[open face surgery]

Just started that track. Vocals started, track ended.

[Black Shepherd Carnage]

Meh song. And totally pointless collaboration.

[Carnage]

Hopefully there isn't an album of it on the way. Leave that to the likes of Converge/Chelsea Wolfe and Bell Witch/Aerial Ruin.

[Ducky]

Or Mastodon and Scott Kelly

[Mooncat]

Your man Chris Adler is a cool drummer, but sure even he bailed out on them.

In fairness Mastodon are one of the few metal bands with a better drummer.

The song is fairly meat n' potatoes. As mentioned, sounds like something recorded during the Leviathan sessions that didn't make the cut. Shout out for the graphic though and the way it's animated. Cool as fuck. Wonder if it's AI.

[Eoin McLove]

Must give it a blast later but yeah, Lamb of God are just such a middle of the road nothing band. No idea why Mastodon would lower themselves to collaborate with a band that can add nothing to what they do.

[Sworntothecans]

The two bands have been pals for years. Think Burn The Priest toured with Today Is The Day when Bill & Brann were playing with them too.
