This past summer you may have listened to my interview with Mastodon's Troy Sanders, then in the studio hashing out tracks for the follow up to 2006's "Blood Mountain." He described songs that were spacier and influenced by prog-rock likes of Pink Floyd, King Crimson and Yes.
Well, apparently that disc is done. And in a preview piece over on the Rolling Stone site, band mate Brent Hinds tells how a brain trauma he suffered after a scuffle in Vegas shaped the new sounds. Hmm, Troy didn't mention that. Click the link to check it out.
