Mastodon - Album Cover Artwork Unveiled
Atlanta progressive metallers Mastodon will release their new upcoming album, The Hunter, this October through Reprise Records. You can find the album cover artwork below.
The artwork was created by AJ Fosik, a wood carver who is also responsible for the backdrop the band uses live. This marks the first time Mastodon has not used acclaimed artist Paul Romano, who was responsible for all of the group's previous artwork.
Mastodon recently revealed more song titles for The Hunter. Tracks to appear on the band's follow-up to 2009's Crack The Skye include: "The Hunter: All The Heavy Lifting", "Dry Bone Valley", "Blasteroids", "The Octopus Has No Friends", "Stargasm", and "Curl Of The Burl".
The Hunter was recorded at Doppler Studios in the band's hometown of Atlanta as well as in Los Angeles with producer Mike Elizondo. As with all of their albums, Mastodon decided to take a completely different tack and musical approach to the music on this album. The band feels confident that fans will be excited and fulfilled by what they will hear.
Adultswim.com still has an unreleased Mastodon song, called "Deathbound", available as free download.

The fact that the cover is a wood carving, makes it amazing. lol The guy who made that clearly has serious talent!  "Blasteroids" sounds like the title of an 80's shoot em' up!

2 words come to my mind after seeing this "Donkey Kong"! They probably should have also named the album that. *Mehn, the things people do for originality*

Written by Symmachus on 14.07.2011 at 00:59 Indeed it is. It's way superior to their last one. Actually with Romano's work for Mastodon it's like Mastodon's music Remission is the best, then Leviathan, then Blood Mountain, and the worst is Crack the Skye.
