Crack the Skye(2009) I Flew beyond the sun before it was time Burning all the gold that held me inside my shell Waiting for you to pull me back in I almost sat the world in my sights Lost, love bright eyes fading Faster than stars falling How can I tell you thatI failed? Tell you I failed Fallen from grace cause I been away too long Leaving you behind with my lonesome song Now I’m lost in oblivion I tried to bore a hole into the ground Breaking all the fingers and the nails from my hand The …

This band has started a burning passion inside of me to create music. They’re the biggest influence in my playing. With this whole CD they’ve created a masterpiece that will stand the test of time.
Mastodon is no more of a mainstream poser band than Lamb of God. Both of them garner huge amounts of press but not because they appeal to the lowest common denominator like pop music does. They are not the product of some watered down formula that a record company cooked up to make easy money. Mastodon writes powerful music, they play their instruments well. If you are good, you will be noticed. Mastodon is very good, the press has taken notice.
I really love how mastodon really takes full advantage of having 3 singers in this song. It really adds an element that stands above a lot of hit single songs.
Your not the only one.
I always thought of them as quite the opposite. Thought they always played how they wanted and what they wanted. I spose the way they were spread across alot of magazines when Leviathan came out would’ve put me off if I hadn’t heard the album first.
these guys look like brothers to anyone else or just me?
Yeah, Bill has the handle bar stash thing going. Its growing on me.
Yeah, this album was well made. I’ve always consider Mastodon as a shitty mainstream poser band. But, I don’t know this time this album seem more progressive and it sounds really good. I like the way they have took of putting more clean vocal, I like harsh vocal but not Mastodon’s one. This song is really good, remind me littely of Pink Floyd. Sorry for my english it’s not my mother’s tong. Stay Metal!!!
yeah dude, they’ve grown so much from the grind core esq bits they done with relapse, saw these guys with metallica and machine head at wembley and they blew everyone away, HIM got it hard though lol!
cool new thing: Brann sings, and he sings well!
just for fun! great track and video, incredible how much recognition they get now, i was fan waay before there was any kind of hype about them in the media, a kinda strange feeling, but they diserve it more than many else, not doubt about that!!
Bad new thing: The guitarist i can´ t remember the name of have this new mustage which looks more funny than cool
LOL I haven’t been blessed with the honour of listening to it yet. I shall very shortly however. Is it that good then?
Really? I can’t get enough of any album.
Crack the Skye is the first album from Mastodon that I really enjoy.
hmm…but its pretty close
i think the drummer should sing more!
Loving this tune.
NO SHIT!!!
Thats their drummer singing
no the bassist has always been the lead vocalist but since cyrstal skull, he has taken a back seat to allow a different approach to the vocals….Mastodon no longer has a lead vocalist.
this albums better then finding a naked shannon elizabeth at my door holding a chinese meal in one hand 20 marlboro lights in the other
This album is for Ether, so wind is left.
All their albums concern different elements. i think this one is air. And they have one element left.
its just you
If you’re refering to the guy who sings the Chorus, That’s Brent, Lead guitarist.
