I think it’s fucking amazing. It’s only 4 tracks which sucks, but they deliver.
Apparently it’s mostly written by Brent and based on a recently failed serious relationship so it has an emotional feel to it. It was written amd considered as a solo record but Troy and Brann helped out so much they released under Mastodon.
Definitely DO NOT expect it to sound like Remission/Leviathan if you haven’t heard it. Ioss those days but love this shit too. They can do anything.
All 4 songs are great but Toe to Toes touches me in my special area. As well as Brent’s vocals
Recently became a big fan of Mastodon, and really like how versatile they are. I liked the EP but wasn’t crazy about it, really dug Emperor of Sand though.
