Halloween

[droidspawn]

Yeah buddy

Brent's vocals are really what make mastodon for me. Now with brann and his radio vocals singing all over the records and Troy with way less aggressive vocals, Brent is the standout

[happiness and harmony]

troy's vocals are what make mastodon for me and they sound mighty good to these ears

brent has been singing clean and harmonizing more and more over the past few records, why are you picking on brann for doing the same

[droidspawn]

Because brann wasn't one of the original vocalists. He started on oblivion and was brought on heavy with the hunter to try and get a radio hit I think. Paid off with the motherload finally and now blow yourself on emperor. Don't get me wrong I like Branns voice but let's face it, without his vocals over the last few records mastodong wouldn't be as popular as they are. He's the pop radio vocalist of the band

[happiness and harmony]

also according to the internet here is the set list they are playing this tour

sultan's curse
divinations
the wolf is loose
crystal skull

ember city
megalodon
andromeda

no steambreather in there after they played it at the jimmy kimmel dealie i figured it was a lock

also no word to the wise surprising omissions

and a couple of curious holdovers from omrts. feast your eyes and ember city i did not expect to see

anyway this looks bitchingly good and i hope they stick to it at least through ein san francisco show

[Methuselah Honeysuckle]

Might could be that some songs are switched out

[happiness and harmony]

mayhaps but as i recall they don't do that too much. and they played that same set the first two shows of this tour

[droidspawn]

Feast your eyes instead of tread lightly or the motherload

[droidspawn]

Bladecatcher

[happiness and harmony]

bladecatcher is a fun one
