![Pantera - Far Beyond Driven (Full Album) [Official Video]](/img/n.gif)
It impresses me that it took 34 years after the creation of heavy metal for someone to realize that moby dick, the most metal story out there, is perfect for a metal concept album
try the band ahab, different musical style but also moby dick based
metal was such a shocking and awesome concept, it just took that long for people to get over the initial shock of just how great metal was and come back to earth :)
Разве хэви метал появился в 1988 году? По моему на несколько лет раньше. “The Namber Of The Beast” появился в 1982 году, и его уже трудно было бы назвать классическим хард-роком.
@@user-qj6xp8te8dтут речь о Моби Дике
@hellokitteh6431 best
This is probably my favorite album of all time. As a drummer, every single song was such an inspiration for me - Brann is a beast.
Back when I was 14 I was just getting into metal. I think Blood Mountain had just come out about a year before. I went on vacation to universal studios florida on one of my breaks and I was wearing my Mastodon shirt. We were sitting down eating churros on a bench, when all of a sudden I see Brann and his wife appear out of nowhere walking toward us. Me and my friend were basically star struck (we were just kids). We ran up to him and couldn't really say much except "Holy shit! We love your band!"
Him and his wife were so cool to us. You could tell he was happy to meet some fans and was just a really friendly, genuine dude. We talked for a while about random shit and asked him what they were working on and he told us that their new album "Crack the Skye" was coming out in the next few months. We took a picture with him and were about to leave, when out of nowhere he invited us to go on The Hulk rollercoaster with him and his wife. We were so fucking stoked, it was so much fun. He even bought us the ride picture afterwards!! Really cool people, I will never forget that - still have that picture in my closet somewhere
Thats fucking rad
Hell yeah. The guys in Mastodon are super cool.
That's a really cool fuckin story, man. Thx for sharing!
If you can find it, look for Brann's old band from Rochester NY called Lethargy.He was just as good way back then.
Cool story but what the hell is that picture doing in your closet somewhere? If you have a Hulk rollercoaster pic with Brann that he bought you then you need to display that shit!
Lets take a shot every time there's a drum roll.
ARTRAD you'd be wasted before I Am Ahab.. :D
Let's take this moment to remember LONEBOY, who sadly passed away from alcohol poisoning listening to this beast of an album
Uberethair lmao, I was thinking along these lines as well.
RIP
#neverforget
I love that the "most replayed" slider on Megalodon actually has a profile of a shark's upper body, dorsal and tail fin and all.
Spermwhale*
I wish if all metal and rock bands knew how valuable an aggressive drummer is for an album. This drummer is a fucking master of his work. He just found something he's good at and improved himself upon it beyond belief.
Yep, a weak drummer could have made this album so much less than it is.
Fo shizzle my nizzle
He's alright. He's no Meg White that's for sure
He's no Frost either. This whole band lacks talent
@@gregoryleonard1098 after time and thought, considering their other albums i must concur
This album is straight snare-porn.
I love most of all Mastodons stuff for different reasons but on this album it's all about the drumming and to a lesser extent those TASTY riffs
mayte sutin the riffs on this album are iconic. Blood and thunder is one of the simplest strong riffs I think ever wrote. Reminds me of what Blackmore did with smoke on the water. Seabeast is probably my favorite song of theirs. The riff that closes that song is the most monstrous way to close a song I've ever heard.
Mastodon though they have put more emphasis on "prog' aspect of their sound in recent years, they still metal
Heya brock. You come here after some led zeppelin?
Snaregasm
I've had the riff for Blood And Thunder in my head for the past two years now. My first thought was "I swear I've heard this somewhere" then I could never think of where from. I thought I finally had a cool riff idea. Then I found Blood And Thunder and my world crumbled around me.
Welcome to the club, it’s been almost 20 years for this album playing in my head at different times and different songs. It’s so good it’s unbelievable really.
The same happend with me but It was with Schism by Tool
"I've written the most powerful riff"
Steal it! Redo it! A lot of the greats did that. Just try not to be blatant about it
There are many moments on this album where it sounds like the music and vocals are swaying back and forth like you're on a ship in a storm, it's incredible.
Someone is highhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
@@Darfaultnerno he's right tho lol
The beginnibg of megaladon is perfect, because then you see the shark when the verse kicks
I feel the storm too, man.

you know a masterpiece when you listen without song skipping
on repeat
Of Breath And Bone by Be'lakor. That's a masterpiece right there.
Would you like to grind this album and smoke it though?
Then it's probably a 9/10 in my book, since I tend to skip Ísland (can't really dig the vocals...)
I'm a little torn on the theme. It's like, you can't take it seriously or relate to the lyrics but the music is so fast and interesting. The whole album is groovy and angry at the same time. It's like listening to Ozzy, Tool and System of a down all at the same time. lol
I love how it's composed of melodic and technical parts mixed with blunt, brutal heaviness
Absolutely yup me too, few tunes are so melodic and technical at the same time, its wild... saw them live once, totally unforgettable...
czcams.com/video/foMVF6zA46E/video.html
'Joseph Merrick' is such an fascinating end to an album, definitely settles things down after the mammoth of a song that is 'Hearts Alive'. The calm after the storm, it even sounds kinda like a sea shanty.
I always, ALWAYS skip it man... To me it has to end with Hearts Alive... the solo is just too good and even the amazing coda of the song feels anticlimactic to me.
@@JohnMatayas Try linking it to Elephant Man from Remission instead, to me that works amazing as an outro after Hearts Alive! They are always together in my playlists!
Its washing up on the beach, after Moby Dick trashes the ship. Its the aftermath of the storm in Hearts Alive.
Especially when the Leslie amp mini solo begins at 44:28, i can imagine a Castaway-movie type moment, like a sunburned guy with blistered lips and wild hair just sitting on the sand, staring out at the horizon.
Remission - Fire🔥
Leviathan - Water 🌊
Blood Mountain - Earth 🌎
Crack the Skye - aether 🌌
Mastodon - Awesome \m/\m/
Crack the Skye - Air
The hunter-forest 🌲🌳🥀
@@daviddegeorges8416 Aether and air are arguable interchangeable.
@@jacoblevenson7934 nope. Aether was the 5th.
@@daviddegeorges8416 5th is Wood.
Ashes of the Leviathan here we go. I cant belive Im still rocking to this album even 20 years later. Keep rocking!
Blood and Thunders opening riff is possibly the most metal thing ever
Must be new to metal
No it ain't
It isn't, but it's still so good it's almost forbidden
Such a simple yet effective riff. Still one of my favorites to rip during a soundcheck or when playing a new guitar.
Considering the riff was written by Slayer, yeah.
A timeless classic. I just realized it's been almost 13 years since this came out. Feels like yesterday.
Aeturnus , wow it has been 12-13 years. Your getting old
I remember buying this in Iraq at the PX and just thinking, holy shit..
I grew up with this, and have always loved it
It will be 20 soon.
Tour with Lamb of God playing this entire masterpiece front to back \M/
19 years old and still hitting as hard as ever!
Def does man. They're touring this this year, going to see em. Can't wait!
Hearts Alive is a masterpiece. The ultimate climax of an epic story. One of the best songs of the 21st century
Came for the weird, metal-country, hillbilly square dancing riff at 18:40, was not disappointed.
It kind of reminded me of a sailor.
You would be correct, such a damn epic breakdown
Brent Hinds has to be the most unique guitar player of this generation. One second he’s playing heavy ass thick and fat riffs. Next he’s playing chicken picked rockabilly. And somehow it works within the same song.
Brent's playing never fails to amaze me
I glanced at this comment at the exact time this played, hot damn
the guitar tones on this album make my brain happy
They make mine all tingly.
gibbo lp + bill kelliher + octave fuzz + marshall + orange cabs = magic
i dont have a brain but it makes me happy too
Legitimately one of the best metal albums ever released. Every song is so colorful. I've never heard an album able to paint a picture like this masterpiece. I see the whale and ahab on quest and his descent into madness. Great fucking album.
Tyler Jacobson Try some Symphony X. Guy paints a picture with his voice. The Damnation Game is a great album to start with
Tyler Jacobson , this and Clutch elephant riders are the 2 that just ruined me on an "album concept". Music in it's most imaginative form for me.
Tyler Jacobson con-fuckin-cur !!!!THE WHITE WHALE!!!!!
Hearts Alive! What a masterpiece! My favorite Mastodon moment from any of their albums is the ending of that song starting at 39:36
Makes me want to read the book. S-tier
I actually read the book back in the day when I first listened to this
It made me read the book
Reading it now, the book is a masterpiece
one of the best albums ever
Based on its overall quality and the impact it had when it came out.
Vinko Grgić if you think otherwise then why are you here? go play league and gtfo lol
you're a fucking douche lol
go back to your game knob jockey
+Vinko Grgic
hey, Vinko, dude. Your English isn't as good as you think, trust me. The lofty intellect you're trying really hard to project gets undermined by the mistakes.
But, to quote you; no need for you to upset.
Just don't go around pretending you're above us all, 'there's always a faster gun' I like to say. and you'll just look like a moron before long.
Case in point - it'll be my turn next! haha
Now get lost!
The riff at the end of Seabeast is some of the nastiest shit I have ever heard in my entire life
Thank you relapse records for letting us listen for free.
I hate bringing in my record player for work.
WOW finally, someone that is not complaining about the ad. FREE MUSIC is the best things a records company can do to make people discover music.
this drummer is amazing
I know, Brann is crazy good at drums
Mastodon’s artwork has always been sick AF. Artwork imo can make or break a band. The music and visuals gel to create the experience.
@Tom Dantzig no
no, visual is irrelevant
@@reesetorwad8346 nowadays it might be somewhat irrelevant, but back in the days of vinyls, cassettes and CD's the artwork would add to the personality of the album whilst catching the eye of those searching for something new to listen to
@@goromarimba though these days, if artwork catches the eye, we buy too. Bands work closely with the artist, sometimes even create it themselves, and it does represent what sonic assault will be unleashed. Purple and black album cover? Probably gonna be some dope-ass bm. Trippy n colorful, perhaps proggy goodness. Raw n ugly, u get the idea. In the case of concept albums like dis one, faaaarkin-a the music wouldn't have had one iota less of an impact but gardaayum does this cover rip and pay such a beautiful homage to the dick of moby :))
@@reesetorwad8346 Great artwork can help you fully put yourself in the landscape that the music is painting, not irrelevant at all.
copy n paste from a search, good explanation of the best song on here:
[hearts alive] ...It's nearly the band's crowning Opus, and is definitely the culmination of the Leviathan's storyline....this song went over the heads of SO many people....found "it's boring", "it's slow", "it's not heavy enough", "it's repetitive". How could people miss the point so dramatically?
Hearts Alive IS the whale! It rises from the deep, it thrashes around, it is eternal. The lyrics are about the behavior of the whale and the interaction with the captain. The riff from 10:03 until the end of the song evolves so slowly and methodically..."
Heart's Alive is among the greatest songs ever composed.
I've already been losing 14 pounds of fat just by drumming this album and eating properly, thanks Brann!
The high water mark of modern metal within the last 20 years, pun unintended.
The undefeated king: Leviathan.
The album that got me into metal with Blackwater Park, such good memories.
Blackwater Park and Leviathan - two of the greatest metal albums of all time. Unfortunately, both Opeth and Mastodon are much softer these days, and no longer really make metal, but their legacies will live on in metal fame for time immemorial.
+M00tzart Fear not, Mastodon with andromeda shall save you from this metal drought.
With mastodons recent stuff, it is more clean vocals. But I would still consider them metal. Opeth have gone totally clean vocals.
Yeah It's still metal, Judas Priest is still metal.
clean vocals have nothing to do with a band being metal or not, Sabbath, Judas priest, Metallica, anthrax and Iron maiden are all metal, but have clean vocals
Brann Dailor is seriously an awesome drummer yet he isn't mentioned in the greatest drummers conversation
Because he choose to do things simpler after "Leviathan"... Remains a beast of a drummer, but this album here is his undeniable peak
First album I ever bought. Was absolutely obsessed with this throughout my teenage years. All these years later I've gotten into much different music but nothing gives me goosebumps like this. Just the perfect amount of heaviness, catchiness and stank face inducing musicianship.
One of my very favourite albums of all time. I Am Ahab the epic that lasts less than 3 minutes and a near-15 minute Hearts Alive that flies by. Masterful song-writing.
I love the artwork!
Yeah freakin' awesome
Done by mr Paul Romano.
adrenochromemusic.wordpress.com/2011/08/02/the-art-of-the-mastodon-%E2%80%93-part-i-paul-romano/
I've had the pleasure of seeing it in person. Its like 4ft square and full of little hidden details. Super awesome to stare at for 10 minutes.
Mastodon always has insanely cool album artwork, imo
great for tattoo too
Classic album. Sounds even better than it used to.
18:38
Your life will never be the same.
I've listened to the song like 6 times today for that part
Today was the 1st time I listened to this from start to finish, loud, with headphones on eventually just laying on my floor. I gotta get better at making time for music that exact way.
This album and this song helped me through a really long and painful bowel movement but at the end of the day. I'm better for it
You know, this may be my favorite Mastodon album, but I truly do appreciate all of the others. They all bring something to the table for me, they are all unique and amazing in their own way. All the way from Remission to Emperor of Sand, Mastodon is one of the few bands that have not put out a bad album and can keep me headbanging and laying in bed relaxing throughout their whole discography.
A modern classic.
Brandon Hoeppner The Chaos Ensemble did a string version. It's just as good imo.
ah I see album cover of the ocean, man of culture
cannot get enough of these guys lately...in 13 months after giving it a shot and listening to cold dark place after work one night on youtube, now I have all their albums and a couple extraneous releases and profoundly wish there was alot more. each album makes it to favorites list but leviathan and hushed and grim seem to stick around the most this past month
Metal isn't a genre I ever really listen to, but being introduced to this album through Blood And Thunder I have to say, this is really not bad!
My favorite album of all time. Some days my particular favorite is Once More 'Round the Sun, others it's Remission. Sometimes it's Crack the Skye or Blood Mountain. Overall, I know my favorite is Leviathan. It's my personal number one album ever. Almost 47 minutes of pure progressive sludge metal brutality and chaos. It's an absolute masterpiece.
Let's just say rip to The Hunter that is never your favorite.
Minority opinion: I just discovered Mastodon recently and have listened to most of their discography a couple of times over (as I am doing with Leviathan right now) and like it all but the one that I keep returning to is The Hunter. I put it on in my car and just kept hitting repeat on Dry Bone Valley.
"47 minutes of pure progressive sludge metal brutality and chaos. An absolute masterpiece"
Im like, wanting to frame your words.
So well said, yes.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
@@tadpole2bullfrog201 The Hunter I love. Criminally underrated progressive sludge metal and stoner rock/metal. Bit more polished and kind of restrained, but who cares, the music itself is excellent.
@@bousculade1035 great album.
10 seconds in and Mastodon has me head banging already. Well done.
why?
Gregory Chri Because it's Mastodon!
Can't help but do it all the way through
I remember seein them playing live. When I left the club my neck was hurting for that reason. And I'm not a fanatic head banger
Fell in love with the band after listening to this
still a monolith of an album years and years after i first fell in love with it!!
That Seabeast intro riff is a beast.
you mean the outro? :)
i'm not even a drummer and the percussion in this album makes me feel things.
I was listening to this album while playing Pokémon, and my Wailmer became a killer whale, obliterating everything in its path completely.
think I might start buying some Mastodon albums
they played hella good in the unholy alliance tour, i think they were honestly my fav i went for slayer my all time fav but yea mastodon one of few i like too
i dont know which songs but this one they had such sick riffs omg lol mastodon awesome live
This is the only good one
Michael David Remission is pretty decent
Michael David other than all of em yeah
Hearts Alive one of the best songs ever
best sonic interpretation of Moby Dick ever!
Was not expecting that riff at 10:05
Yeah, so crunchy and brutal. Love it!
Badass
Devastating! That moment just gives me butterflies still and I know it’s coming.
this was a great year for Relapse.
grindcoremaniac 2004, fuck yeah. Becrophagist released epitaph. Good times.
Pig destroyer-terrifyer, miss machine-Dillinger escape plan, leviathan-mastodon all in 2004
That breakdown at 10:05 or so, well, that's stupid-good.
This band is great and this is one of their finer offerings. As a musician and fan of music in general I appreciate their progressive style and evolution. I hijacked my GFs phone to burn her data and listen to it again. My comments in no way reflect her opinion but I did play Emperor of Sand for her and she didn't tell me to turn it off.
Emperor of Sand is so fucking good!!!!!!
I listened to this album every night when I was working the nightshift on a 60ft sailboat off the coast of Nantucket.
It was just me and the ocean, 150 miles from land with every soul aboard sound asleep.
Always got the vide that every album since Crack the Skye was solid, but Remission, Leviathan, and Blood Mountain were epic. Crack the Skye was like that buffer in between. This record, followed by Blood Mountain being a close second, is my favorite Mastodon album. The mix of sludge, blues, prog, concept, riffs, drum fills, and straight up metal makes this a heavy metal fucking journey.
Exceptional group of musicians. Exceptional humans as well. Long live Mastodon.
28:09 One of THE greatest riffs ever written.
why?
really? I'll just assume you are about 12

Just started, bought blood mountain and im after cut the sky and now, leviathan. Amazing talent from really ugly fuckers.
15 years later and i just got nostalgia'd square in the nuts
Man, this is one of the most gorgeous artcover i've ever seen!
best Mastodon album
Indeed!!!
kevski 1964 I prefer Crack the skye, but between those two is just a matter of taste.
Their first 3 are hands down amazing
+Kalihan Mclean I have found that there is a first 3 Album Phenomenon. The first 3 Albums of Bands who are considered Successful, at least, and usually it is the first 3 Albums that are the best & sometimes the only like with
Portis Head -their first 3 are in a genre & classification of their own, & even though they have toured heavily since getting back together a while ago, years. There is only the 3 Portis Head Albums. Just an example, but 3 is the number for the best Albums.
Brian McGuire Opeth fans would generally disagree. I see what you're saying though.
Just a perfect album. 👊
No way. Crack The Skye is much better and that is not quite perfect.
SPLIT YOUR LUNGS WITH BLOOD AN THUNDER!!!!
A beautiful cover of album for a perfect band! This album, and many of them albums, are journeys by themselves!
This is great! Everything about it. The musicianship, song writing, a fat guitar tone and an awesome album cover.
Hearts Alive is the most haunting song I've ever heard... and that fucking solo at the end is, to me, the best metal solo ever... I just love every single note of it
About 600 of the views are mine
this album is pure adrenaline, such a rush
Everybody's talking about how great is "Crack the Skye" or "Blood Mountain" but this album is the best.
agree 100%
you are wrong. this album get many praise back in 2004 and recently was voted for best metal album in last 20 years. this one and crack the skye will forever be remembered as their best work and if any mastodon album was overlooked,that is blood mountain. anyway,it;s hard to pick best mastodon album.
Can't decide between the three honestly
They’re all so different and good for different moods. As long as we agree that they are the Holy Trinity of mastodon
several people are typing.....
I love all Mastodon. I think this & Blood Mountain are their most creative. Credit to them for not getting complacent and rehashing material. And I think The Hunter is badass too. Round the Sun & Remission get the least replay from me
Its tradition to listen to this every Christmas. Haven't missed a year.
@@mcvee_ nope :( but I first heard it on Christmas.
Drums on this album are demential!
Megalodon has to be my all time favorite mastodon song out of every single album
Thank you, Mastodon
THE FIRST song has a bit of an Iron Maiden flare to it during one of the riff stanzas.... excellent album, glad I found this one.
What Mastodon, Matt Bayles and Relapse achieved together with this album is nothing short of awesome. Most of their songs on this album were part of gaming soundtracks and one of them made it into a big screen kids movie. A critical and commercial success. One that will go down in history, although, to me, it's already there.
I know about monster university, but which games have these songs been in?
@@TheCecchino98 Need for Speed: Most Wanted, Saints Row, Rocksmith 2014, Project Gotham Racing 3, Splatterhouse, Guitar Hero Metallica, Rock Band, Tony Hawk's American Wasteland and NHL 2K9
its rare seeing Ísland spelled like we write it
Brann is just so fast and accurate on the snare drum...love it beyond words
remember loving this album when it first came out and i must say it has aged remarkably well 10:05 I forget I was obsessed with playing that on the guitar at the time. next level drum work
Masterpiece!
I'd like to thank Need For Speed Most Wanted for introducing me to Blood and Thunder, which in turn opened the portal into Mastodon' s discography for me.
The only sea shanties worth listening to in 2021
People keep talking about how amazing it is how they have so many hits, but nobody is amazed about how they never miss.
Hearts alive...drums sounding like harpoons and guns fighting against leviathan beasts....simply awesome!!!!
Just when you think blood and thunder couldn't get better here comes Neil Fallon
Seabeast. Still one of the toughest riffs I ever learned. The timing was so frustrating, but so rewarding once I got it down!
Nice job with the annotations on this one, wish more channels would do this
Usually I get bored to listen to a whole album without doing anything but god damn I definitely didn’t get bored with this masterpiece
I love this album!
Love the new segmented progress bar :)
Great album. I don't have any words to describe this.
Iron Tusk is one of the best drumming moments in metal history
The first song makes the fucking album for me, oh god it’s intoxicatingly strong
I reckon the intro to Aqua Dementia has a middle eastern vibe to it. Can anyone else imagine it being played on a Sitar?
I can see that...
Aqua Dementia literally frightened by brain
sitar’s an indian instrument. maybe you’re thinking of an Oud?
@@joeyuzwa891 No, maybe the Barbat.
