Which I thought sounded stupid until I remembered that Mastodon rules and one of their best attributes is their riffs, and if they are going to do a mellower, blues-rock oriented record, it's going to be full of great songs and great riffs, so who gives a fuck? Definetly looking forward to this one. Rolling Stone has an interview where Brent was talking about how this album was going to be mellower and more rock oriented.

I doubt they're making an album about us though but I can hope. And I should probably say I’m from Skye so am quite pleased about the album title.

Though the waves leap, soft shall ye sleep Ocean's a royal bed Rocked in the deep, Flora will keep Watch by your weary head Speed bonnie boat.... Many's the lad fought on that day Well the claymore could wield When the night came, silently lay Dead on Culloden's field Speed bonnie boat... Burned are our homes, exile and death Scatter the loyal men Yet, e'er the sword cool in the sheath, Charlie will come again. Some leaked lyrics. ;O)

Speed bonnie boat, like a bird on the wing,
Onward, the sailors cry
Carry the lad that’s born to be king
Over the sea to skye

Loud the winds howl, loud the waves roar,
Thunder clouds rend the air;
Baffled our foe’s stand on the shore
Follow they will not dare

Speed bonnie boat….

Though the waves leap, soft shall ye sleep
Ocean’s a royal bed
Rocked in the deep, Flora will keep
Watch by your weary head

Speed bonnie boat….

Many’s the lad fought on that day
Well the claymore could wield
When the night came, silently lay
Dead on Culloden’s field

Speed bonnie boat…

Burned are our homes, exile and death
Scatter the loyal men
Yet, e’er the sword cool in the sheath,
Charlie will come again.

Posting videos that get immediately taken down and all the douchebags who post their stupid bullshit on there, Fuck! Oh and Mastodon is fucking awesome, can't fucking wait. Fuck yeah.

Also, I'm a little worried that this record won't be heavy after the comments from Hinds; especially after being disappointed by a change from melodeath to rock by Fear My Thoughts (unrelated band, I know).

I don't mind much that it's going to be lighter, since Mastodon has always been an atmospheric, moody band. As long as they keep that they can't go wrong IMO.

I'm sure it's because of footage. I'm really looking forward to this album!! Brann had become one of my favorite drummers. I seen clip of them doing Divinations and it sounded like crap.

Still, I'm fuckin excited for this album to drop.
