	Concert Preview: Mastodon battles the monsters of 'Blood Mountain' (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		The members of Mastodon figure that if they're going to sling metal, it might as well be epic, not only in the soaring and crushing musicianship but in subject matter that ascends to the lyrical and fantastic.
		And yet, Mastodon appears to be one of the rare metal bands that is embraced in indie-rock circles and also by critics.
		Mastodon is where the North and South meet.

		If it seems like the members of Mastodon have been watching too much "Lord Of The Rings," take note: Their journey up Blood Mountain was as inspired by their counter culture lifestyle as by their DVD collections.
		Mastodon recorded their first demo in June 2000 and played numerous dates with bands as far ranging as Cannibal Corpse, Queens Of The Stone Age and Morbid Angel.

	Mastodon (band) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Mastodon is a heavy metal band from Atlanta, Georgia.
		Mastodon's style includes heavy (and sometimes quite complex and technical) guitar riffs, complex, jazz-influenced drumming by drummer Brann Dailor, odd time signatures, and long, melodic instrumental interludes inspired by the band's love of prog rock.
		Mastodon arguably struck gold with this album; in 2003, the group premiered the video for "March of the Fire Ants" on MTV2 and was invited to be a part of the Headbanger's Ball two-CD compilation.

	Beyond The Threshold: Mastodon Leviathan Review
		At its heart, Mastodon is a metal band, but it\'s impossible to stick that one-word \"label\" on it and even come close to what the band is creating: a brutal mix of metal, southern, sludgey rock (a la Clutch or Corrosion of Conformity) and mind-bending, complex, technical music mastery.
		Mastodon drummer Brann Dailor is a venerable beast behind the kit, leaving listeners\' heads spinning with the various fills and breakdowns from moment to moment.
		It\'s clear, in the end, the only thing the band really needs for anyone and everyone to stand up and take notice, is for only a few seconds of time, a few bars of a song, a moment in your life...

	Mastodon-Melkweg-Holland-4/3/2005-Rockpages.gr
		And what a band Mastodon is! With two monumental albums for the modern sound of rock (the word "metal" limits the band, I think) and with excellent reviews from all the media, Mastodon are ready to be the new masters of the heavy sound.
		Mastodon are ready to take position on the stage and I consider that I'm ready to see something equivalent to the golden era of Metallica, where albums such as Ride The Lightning and Master of Puppets were making people listen to heavy music.
		If Mastodon ever visit your town, don't miss the chance to buy a ticket and watch one of the best gigs that you will ever be a part of the audience.

		The disc is a compilation of the recordings of a band that is no longer with Relapse and culled from singles and the Lifesblood EP.
		Music-wise, even this early material shows Mastodon as a band not content with straightforward compositions and bound to as many time changes and jazzed up metal twists and turns as possible.
		The couple of vocals, weak as they are, bark on top of one another as the band appeals to the whacked and the wanna-be.

	Mastodon: Leviathan - PopMatters Music Review
		Mastodon's 2002 album Remission was the kind of debut release that every band dreams of pulling off, one that grabbed people's attention immediately, one that, upon hearing the first few bars of the first track, showed the world that they actually had something new to offer.
		Well, Mastodon have indeed decided to change things considerably on their second album, Leviathan, and that change is not only for the better, but positively thrilling.
		All the while, the band's dual vocal team of Sanders and guitarist Hines growl and bellow over the tight-as-a-noose arrangements, not in a the usual extreme way that we've grown accustomed to over the last decade, but similar to that of the two singers in Neurosis.

	Live Review: Mr Mama / Mastodon
		As is the case with many other bands that are extremely heavy and hard to categorize, Mastodon is the kind of band that you like or don’t like.
		Well, thirty seconds of Mastodon and you know why: the guy combines a nearly incredible velocity with a lot of brutality, the best thing about it being that he rarely settles for the straightforward thrash drumming, but a much more ‘demanding’ and disorienting kind of faux messiness instead.
		Of course, their qualities as a live band are honed by playing as much gigs as possible, yet they concoct a blend of thrash, hardcore, doom and a few other references (there’s the ‘70’s hard rock and “Southern twang” to some of their songs, for instance), while their technical prowess is stunning as well.

	Mastodon_Call
		This appears to be a cd for the Mastodon fans mainly, not saying that it is not a good cd with some brilliant tracks in there (such as Battle At Sea, Deep Sea Creature) but it’s not as innovative as the Leviathan or the Remission albums.
		Call Of The Mastodon showcases the band’s early days, playing something more traditional and not having developed the personal sound that they have achieved with their later albums.
		Call Of The Mastodon is something good to keep us busy while waiting for the band’s highly anticipated new album which is due to be released sometime this summer.

	Creative Loafing - Creative Loafing Atlanta: Vibes: Feature: Back on a Remission (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		Along with Mastodon guitarist/vocalist Brent Hinds, guitarist Bill Kelliher and drummer Brann Dailor, Sanders is touring the West Coast for the first time, and if the band's merchandise sales -- not to mention national and international press -- are any indicator, it's going to be a successful run.
		Then, after one practice, before even one song was written, the four had a band and a name that described the vibe they knew would result: slow, heavy, but when roused, capable of tremendous force.
		Most of Mastodon's songs have that feeling of traveling, whether it's the act of physical motion or just scanning back through the years of great metal bands.

	Mastodon Album Reviews
		If we were to believe all those delirious statements, Mastodon is the heaviest, most gifted, important, relevant and consistently ass-kicking band in the world.
		The density of it all is very overwhelming, to such a degree even that you' won't notice many of these parts don't really gel into a whole, as the songs are more a succession of blasts than unified punches.
		Similarly, the intro to "March of the Fire Ants" is a pure call to arms, a knock on the gates of hell and a menace that reduces the average nu-metal album to boys-band girlishness.
