Note to all metal bands thinking of releasing material in 2006:

If Mastodon were actually so good that no other bands should even attempt to make a record... well that would just be sad because Mastodon is close to complete shit.


But hello and welcome to Dave Mustaine went through a divorce while writing this new Megadeth. It will kick ass...

Wrong.

Dave lost the cutting edge which made him great years ago. I don't expect much from him anymore.
 
It's gotta be the Drudkh, for this year.

Also, I agree with Derick, Mastodon use brilliant art and colours on their record artwork. The Leviathan artwork is phenomenal.

Thanks for bringing Colour Haze to my attention. They are most excellent.

one person at a time, masticates, digests, and acknowledges this simple fact :) When Chromie and I BOTH agree on a band, you know it has to be good.

for your normal songwriter, I would agree that anger and emotional turmoil would be beneficial. But Mustaine has ALWAYS been bent around an axle about something, for god's sake, he's still crying about being kicked out of metallica!
