Mastodon
All lyrics on this CD are based on the Herman Melville novel, Moby Dick. This is a great Metal record. Melodic guitar, tons of monstrous riffs, and the singer doesn’t scream in every song. Favorites are Blood and Thunder and Seabeast. In Blood and Thunder, they get some assistance from the leas singer of Clutch on the chant: White whale - Holy Grail!!
More lyrics from this tune:
Split your lungs with blood and thunder
When you see the white whale
Break your backs and crack your oars men
If you wish to prevail
This ivory leg is what propels me
Harpoons thrust in the sky
Aim directly for his crooked brow And look him straight in the eye
This is a great record all the way through, and the musicianship is amazing, these guys really know how to play. Some of the songs are pretty complex but not overly complicated which in my opinion, make bands hard to listen to. It's a good mix, easy to listen to, and complicated enough for other Musicians to enjoy.
