Product Description
Album Description
2011 album from the Atlanta-based Heavy Metal monsters. The Hunter, the follow-up to 2009's critically embraced Crack The Skye, was recorded in the band's hometown as well as in Los Angeles with producer Mike Elizondo. As with all of their albums, Mastodon, which is bassist/vocalist Troy Sanders, guitarist/vocalist Brent Hinds, guitarist Bill Keliher, and drummer/vocalist Brann Dailor, decided to take a completely different tack and musical approach to the music on this album. The band feels confident that fans will be excited and fulfilled by what they will hear.

This review is from: The Hunter (CD/DVD) (Audio CD)
Best songs according to me are Curl of the Burl, Spectrelight, Black Tongue and Dry Bone Valley.I love how they vary the singers on the songs, very refreshing. I prefer Crack The Skye as a whole album but those four songs on The Hunter are better than anything on Crack The Skye. Crack The Skye feels a bit more epic. Other hightlights are Stargasm, All the Heavy Lifting, Thickening and Bedazzled Fingernails.

Mastodon - The Hunter,

Mastodon - The Hunter -- Amazing album.This band is great in the fact they explore new territory with each album, they are a true band in tackling whatever they want to play. This album opens up with a force, with 'Black Tongue' gripping you and taking you in. Then comes 'Curl of the Burl', a masterpiece if you will. Very groovy, drawing influences from Alice in Chains (Whom they recently toured with), Corrosion of Conformity, and if you can believe it, the Steve Miller Band, listen to the 'oh ohhs' in the chorus. Most songs are short in length, but I found myself repeating the tracks to listen to them again, so good call on the band to try this approach as musicians in this genre. I found myself hearing some 70's influence on a later track, entitled: 'Creature Lives' , the got an influence from Steve Miller's: 'Threshold/Jet Airliner.' Great album, it's going into my constant playlist, I like bands that do albums that take more then a few listens to get it all. These guys are fantastic. The recording is really well done, the band sounds so good, the drummer is fantastic. Kudos Mastodon, I think you produced yet another masterpiece.

Awesome!,

This review is from: The Hunter (Audio CD)
This album has licks and riffs that will have other bands burning with jealousy.This may be the wrong audience to which to say this, but this album is insanely "catchy". I love Leviathan and Blood mountain and this album is right up there with these. If you are expecting Mastodon to get progressively heavier, you may be disappointed, but the music on this album is amazing and the singing stellar as always.
