Look, deathbearer, it hasn't been confirmed that Mastodon signed with anybody. There's no official word, and only speculation very similar to this thread on their forum. Mastodon are far from generic. Tell me of a band like them that writes songs as well and has an equally high level of musicianship. I know of none.
It's pretty fucking stupid of you to call me a mall kid who doesn't listen to metal. I have a rather broad taste in metal. I shouldn't even argue that point because you clearly have no idea what I am like, and you're just trying to cover up the way that I embarrased you. Your attempt to do so, however was extremely juvenile, and I'm sure most people can see through that.
dude. I HATE when people get soo personally offended when you don't like thier fave band. As in delusional fanboys. You would think that you're In Mastadon as you get all poonhurt if someone states thier opinion.
Get over your self as tons of Southern indie metal bands including EHG, and others have a simular sound to Mastodon.
I have tons of close freinds whom find Opeth boring as fuck, while I've loved Opeth's older material. To each thier own moron.
Other than a good concept (Moby Dick, over done) I find Mastodon booring as fuck. Heavy, but not brutal, but not melancholy, or mezmorizing like Neurosis at thier best.
Just my taste. Not feeling it buddy. If you're all poonhurt over Mastodon, perhaps you should get your head checked.
As a rule of thumb, bands don't announce record deals into the last ink has dried on the contract, not in thier best interest. However, the press releases news info on bands, and considering how accesible Mastadon are compared to oh, let's say Cryptopsy, I'm not surprised they're signing to Warner.
I laugh, because I HATE Mastodon, I'll take Soilent Green over Mastodon
Just too boring (Mastodon) within thier accesibility.
Tons of bands write better, heavier more brutal songs,or are more groundbreaking musically and if you come from the land of cheese wiz, ya better stop with your poon hurt fanboy delusions.
Soilent Green are a better Southern extreme metal band than Mastodon.
Mastodon=I've heard it before, not groundbreaking.
In fact, your avatar, Chuck Shuldiner and every musician in Death OWNS Mastadon. Pleease. Pfft.
You're entiled to your opinion, I'm entiled to mine.
I'M not embarrased by your childish fan boy delusions. YOU should be.
Opeth are better (or just as good) songwriters than Mastodon. If you're trying to flame me to cover for your mainstream fanboy delusions, you'll lose.
All of us on the Relapse forum get a kick out of Mastodon's after hours activities, pics of Mastodon doing coke?
I prefer music that is more challenging, perhaps technical and extreme than Mastodon, lol.
However, better that Mastodon get signed to Warner, than say Nickleback, or Chaimiria.
Now go to take your Prozac.
