yeah LEVIATHAN is an awesome album but it was SUCH A FUCKING WASTE that they allowed "Blood and Thunder" (which has LINES about THE WHITE WHALE and all kinds of great stuff) to be made into a music video which takes place at a juggalo "psycho circus" featuring a transgressive "insane, evil clown" marching around, instead of doing some kind of awesome seafaring video.

the final scene of moby dick, when they look down into the ocean and see him emerging from the gloom with his mouth open, and then he starts destroying boats, and then they see him pop his head up perpendicular and slowly bob around in a circle (so he can survey the scene) and then finally when he smashes back to the top with the tattered corpse of Fedallah lashed to his body

HOLY SHIT. mastodon: greatest wastrels ever.
 
I know what you mean. I thought that video was really garbage considering the subject matter of the song. hugely disappointed cause I really like that song. Incidentally its also one of my rowing pump up songs.
