Ok, so a confession. I’m a middle aged metal head that has somehow overlooked Mastodon’s music until recently. Over the past couple of weeks I’ve finally taken the time to listen and it’s freaking me out! 🤩EVERY SINGLE SONG I come across including this one is awesome and instantly addictive…just different levels of brilliance.

@@svfutbol20 thanks, yea that’s what I’m finding. Once More ‘Round the Sun doesn’t seem to be as well regarded by fans. I’ve only heard a few songs and seems to be a simpler rock sound but not necessarily bad.
@@VipersNest I like a good prog sound, have enjoyed Iron Maiden’s prog era over the past decade or so. Even though different from their classic 80s albums.
How dare you! Now go sit on the naughty step and think about the meaning of life for a while. Seriously though; welcome to the fold. You have a lot of material and a lot of wonderful experiences ahead of you! I'm really quite jealous.
This is such a quintessential Mastodon song. The blistering Kelliher riffing, the vocal dichotomy, the intelligent and poignant lyricism, the emotionally impactful breakdown, and Brent coming in at the end to set the whole thing on fire. Fuck. Yes.
Yes. This. The riffs, the chunky yet super groovy effects, the contrasting vocals, the bridge letting it breathe and blistering solo, and the psychedelic visuals. Gotta love it.
After hearing people debate, which is better old or new mastodon. Mastodon is like peanut butter. Their old stuff like crunchy peanut butter, gritty, coarse, and hella chonky, whereas the new stuff is like silky smooth peanut butter. Regardless it is peanut butter, it is delicious, amazing, and always be a staple in my musical diet.
To be honest my favorite peanut butter ever was this organical natural peanut butter dispenser, you Could get some in a provided small of large cup to purchase. Fuckin crunchy. MMM!
I get the analogy, but I don't like peanut butter. I also like the old stuff way more. The new stuff isn't bad I just don't love it, it doesn't grab me the same.
I know that Brann has been singing on the albums for a while now but he's really come a long way and really brought a new life into to full vocal delivery of Mastodon.
Ok guys...here goes...I know that Brann has been singing on the albums for a while now but he's really come a long way and really brought a new life into to full vocal delivery of Mastodon.
This band amazes me. They had two amazing vocalists FOR YEARS and then suddenly the drummer starts singing and it just makes the art that much more EPIC and BEAUTIFUL.
The drummer has sung as far back as Crack the Skye. Maybe even earlier, but I know for sure Crack the Skye. "I tried to bore a hole into the ground..." that part on oblivion is Brann. Pretty sure every member of the band sings on almost every record.
I saw these guys at a dive basement venue in 2002 with around 250 people in attendance. Never in my wildest dreams did I expect to be listening to them for 20+ years.
I saw them in 05 in a room full of 70 people and I saw them last week in front of a few thousand and they rocked just as hard. I've loved them since the blood and thunder video dropped
In a world of remixes and regurgitated melodies, these guys just keep on discovering these unique but unmistakably Mastodon riffs and harmonics. These guys never disappoint.
Arguably one of their best songs ever. Just a perfect representation of everything that's great about them. Brann's amazing vocals, Troy's amazing vocals, Bill and Brent killing it with the riffs, and Brent's incredible solo at the end. I get chills at the end every single time I hear this song.
Making a statement like that will surely get you arguments. Sweeping claims of "best song ever" only identify you as a fan of THIS song. This is a comment a 12 year old would make. This is generic metal, done before, over hyped with a gaudy video that looks like it was copied poorly from a 30 year old Nirvana video (Heart Shaped Box). This isn't even the THOUSANDTH best song ever.
Yeah i saved him!!! I tricked Harry by making him believe Dobby died and i couldn’t do anything to save him! I’m the best witch out here that could ever exist
Yeah, I saw this live a few weeks ago. I’d say I was peaking on my hit of acid/little bit of mushrooms that I ate. When this song was playing. And it was very haunting like you said. Between the distortion they put on his voice, the lights/effects. They really captured the vibe of this video. Oh man, it was so awesome. I had never even really listened to Mastodon before either. Fan for life now haha.
Mastodon is my favorite band! I can't say enough about them, and I'm a 59-yr old woman....lol. Always feel like an old fart at their shows, until they take the stage, then I don't give a rat's a**.

The scene that follows after 4:37 shows the pinnacle that is this masterpiece of a music video. Her smile shows overwhelming pride and satisfaction after committing what is symbolized as a heinous, sinful act, yet ignorant of it's true depth, makes for a chilling scene. Further complemented by a melody that sounds like crippling despair, a resigned closure... Its beautiful.
Was still deep in the hell that was the woman I loved and lived with for seven years leaving me for the man she cheated with when I first heard this song and saw this video. The cold agony of hurt and despair and un releasable heart ache you feel while watching the only person that really matters to you commit to such acts of betrayal and enjoying how much its hurting you even though they wont fully admit it, the Pain of having to watch them become someone who is irreversibly transformed from who they were when they loved you and how much this new world they left you for is thrilling them. The "Say when and id come running back" line hits me so hard because even though in my situation I knew my woman had eaten the apple and become tainted by it, leaving no chance at ever rebuilding what we once had, I still, more than two years hence feel her absence and would have for a very very very long time, maybe even now in the right circumstance, gone running back myself. chick really fucked me up. fuck this is such a perfect sound for the emotional longing. mastodon forever.

I am not a "Mastodon Fan" ... I just started hearing them...2020 or so, but I gotta tell you. I'm 53 yrs old and this is an instant classic. A masterpiece. It may be one of the top ten songs ever written. It IS IN MY EYES.
I relate. I wouldn't say I'm old.. still under 40.. just! Grew up with Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Metallica, Pantera, Slayer, Machinehead, CoC, Megadeath and Motorhead... Grew into At The Gates and the Haunted but not so much In Flames and Mastodon... Until now. And it's great because there's huge discographies to get through. The solo at the end here reminds me badly of Jerry Cantrell/early Alice in Chains too and always said they were heavy for a grunge band!
That final shot of the devil embracing Eve just makes me think of how easily innocence is lost and how intoxicating being complicit in your own demise can be, especially with the line 'Say when, and I'll come running back.'

Mastodon is one criminally underrated band!!!! These 4 dudes are brilliant people & musicians!! The loyalty they have towards each other is something else!!
mastodon has been an outlet for me for so long now, they help me navigate through tough times and it makes me feel less alone in this sometimes terrifying world.

Been following these guys , since the early club gigs here in Atlanta. Went to school with Troy’s younger brother. It has been great to see their evolution. Such great song writing and textures on this new album. A true masterpiece.
The moment she bites that apple off and smiles in the camera while the breakdown kicks in something inside me just freaks out on a primal level. The music video is really well made, the colors, the costumes, everything about it is really impressive!
I fucking love mastodon and the fact they are going 20+ years and still whacking out killer tracks like this is just beyond words and beyond talent. The album is amazing, and this in particular is just a foot stomping, fist in the air, balls to the walls ANTHEM!! LONG LIVE MASTODON
@@officialmetalwill Wtf are you talking about? I really do hope that to be sarcasm. I mean, if you don`t like their music, no problem. But them caring about money over music? Bullshit
Long time metal fan. Since the early to mid-90s. This is my first Mastodon song. This song is incredible. There's so much subtlety in it in their transitions and in the tone and harmonics. This band has great vocals too. These guys freaking rock.
This song hits hard for me. I may only be 21 years old, but when I reached adulthood I made decisions that were "more than I could chew" and ripped the rest of my childhood away from me with no chance to savor it. The ending with branns vocals hit me especially. I want to run back to my past self. Relish in the simplicity that was life, but I don't know when I can, or even if I can. I grew up with mastodon, and their music kinda grew with me too. My #1 band of all time.

Song gives me chills. I was listening to this and watching the video when I got the call that my long time friend and drummer had past away! Love you Jon!!! Rest in peace brother! Getcha a pull!
Oh man, you are in for a great experience!! Highly recommend listening to Crack the Sky all the way through in order when you have the time to spare. It’s an other worldly experience
What an epic song this is… That 9/8 time signature outro with THAT riff and THAT SOLO and THOSE vocals are you kidding me i hereby declare this the best fucking song ive ever heard THANKYOU MASTODON
Impossible to find the words to say how much I love everything about this song and its accompanying video. That's a s close as I can get. Saved my fucking life.

Brann Dailor's vocals really opened a new chapter for Mastodon!
hell yeah
The fact that he can sing so well whilst kicking ass on drums is so impressive. Love Mastodon!
Couldn't agree more- great voice!
And the fact that he can still play drums with the very same precision and skill whilst doing vocals is just insane.
Which is why I've closed the book on them.
Video has some serious "heart shaped box" and "black hole sun" vibes
I was thinking the exact same thing. Love it!
I was thinking that and “Until It Sleeps” also. So rad!
Same here. Looked down and seen your comment.
thank you I was thinking the same thing
grunge vibes
Ok, so a confession. I’m a middle aged metal head that has somehow overlooked Mastodon’s music until recently. Over the past couple of weeks I’ve finally taken the time to listen and it’s freaking me out! 🤩EVERY SINGLE SONG I come across including this one is awesome and instantly addictive…just different levels of brilliance. There’s so much variation in their style and production over the years while still being obviously the same band. Can’t wait to keep digging this diamond mine!
That's great to hear. It took me a while to get into them as they're quite proggy in places and not a traditional metal band. ♥️
All of their albums really stand alone, if you want heavy Mastodon, you listen to the early stuff like Remission and Leviathan, if you want the trippy stuff you have CtS and Hunter, and the new stuff is a mix of it all tbh.

This is such a quintessential Mastodon song. The blistering Kelliher riffing, the vocal dichotomy, the intelligent and poignant lyricism, the emotionally impactful breakdown, and Brent coming in at the end to set the whole thing on fire.
Fuck. Yes.
What about quintessence?
This song is perfect
Agree with all of that..except the intelligent lyricism. The words are a kind of meaningless afterthought as far as I can tell.
AGREE ! :)
Yes. This. The riffs, the chunky yet super groovy effects, the contrasting vocals, the bridge letting it breathe and blistering solo, and the psychedelic visuals. Gotta love it.
After hearing people debate, which is better old or new mastodon. Mastodon is like peanut butter. Their old stuff like crunchy peanut butter, gritty, coarse, and hella chonky, whereas the new stuff is like silky smooth peanut butter. Regardless it is peanut butter, it is delicious, amazing, and always be a staple in my musical diet.

I was also thinking that this has a very classic quality! Not just having classic influences, but doing what they did in terms of creativity
I feel the same way..
Im 58 .just heard for first time.
one lovely song.
The video ....
I relate. I wouldn't say I'm old.. still under 40.. just! Grew up with Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Metallica, Pantera, Slayer, Machinehead, CoC, Megadeath and Motorhead... Grew into At The Gates and the Haunted but not so much In Flames and Mastodon... Until now. And it's great because there's huge discographies to get through. The solo at the end here reminds me badly of Jerry Cantrell/early Alice in Chains too and always said they were heavy for a grunge band!
So true.
Respect
SAYYYYY WHENNNNNNN~~~~ 🔥🔥🔥😭😭🛸🛸🛸
I love that solo from mr Hinds so much. His style really hits me.
This is a whole movie and score combined in 7 minutes.
Every instrument including the VOCALS.... They are 100% perfect. WOW.
That final shot of the devil embracing Eve just makes me think of how easily innocence is lost and how intoxicating being complicit in your own demise can be, especially with the line 'Say when, and I'll come running back.'
Mastodon Good
One of the best bands ever....talent skill...incredible music...
I feel purpose in life again when I listen to Mastodon
Killer riffs they should been nominated and won a Grammy
Lyrics...🤘🤘🤘
Will there ever be a moment I won't feel this heat coming up from ground?
Will there ever be a time when I can show myself through open doors?
All I need is you to tell me how to reconcile this guilt and shame
I've already ripped myself to pieces and I've given it away
All the weight lies upon my shoulders from
The great disruption
It's hard to breathe inside these waves of doubt
Tidal distraction
Can you tell me how to wish away this chaos making my head spin?
Can you tell me how to soothe the savage beast locked up inside these walls?
Will there ever be a place that I can hide and heal these open sores?
Or do I have to cut them out and eat them as my people adore?
All the weight lies upon my shoulders from
The great disruption
It's hard to breathe inside these waves of doubt
Tidal distraction
I have, I have lost my way
Reaching, reaching for today
I have, I have lost my way
Reaching, reaching for today
Say when
And I'll come running back
Say when
And I'll come running back
Say when
And I'll come running back
Say when
And I'll come running back
Bump for the lyrics homie
You are a gentleman and a scholar
Beautiful
All too human, all too real. I love when lyrics point out the same very personal and daily struggles that I go through, that we all go through.
I always be shouting out "show less" when the guitar fades out at the end
Just...so good....can't stop listening.
Another masterpiece by the great ones!
I’m so happy because this earth is billions of years old but I’m living in this planet in a same time with this band .. absolutely mind blowing band , what a powerful music guys 🤘🤘🙌🙌
Wrong, Earth is only 2022 years old.
You existed in the right timeline.
@@rishimishra123 you see my friend this is problem with uneducated people.. because you have absolutely no idea what’s going on this earth .. I’m a geophysicists , go and have a look what is that means.. I can prove that this mass which is going around in this universe is more than 2022 years old .. but of course you can still believe you little theory but please don’t go around and attack people who don’t believe in lies.. thanks .. and I feel sorry for you .. I almost forgot,if your god is created this earth than he done a really shit job ..👍
@@rishimishra123 the earth is flat.......silence
Evangicals left the chat 😂
Best way to wake up, is Mastodon in a cup.
I appreciate this comment S.Jigg.
Thank you.
This is my favorite Mastodon song, and Hushed & Grim is in my top 5 albums of all time. I have so much respect for these guys.
Me too man. Such good music
The best band at present, without a doubt.
One's of the greatest bands of the last years
Nope
This is "peak" Mastodon in my opinion. As soon as I heard this album, I immediately knew this was my favorite song they had ever written.
i agreed with you
I agree but am having a hard time picking a favorite song or vocals from this album. So many masterworks on this one.
This is my first time hearing Mastodon and holy sh!t I am blown away.
Mastodon is one criminally underrated band!!!! These 4 dudes are brilliant people & musicians!! The loyalty they have towards each other is something else!!
Song recommendation...The Last Baron
The best I've ever heard and seen
That solo brings tears in my eyes
Same here man, it's like my life and all it's event's especially heartbreak flash during that part! SAY WHEN! AND I'LL COME RUNNING BACK!
The solo is fire!
When he nails the harmonies with the main riff, chills man. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Omg it's masterpiece...
Damn, this song is a visual and aural masterpiece
Oral..master..piece.
😮
This album deserves and Oscar, Emmy, Acadamy award - all the accolades.
The band might deserve the award, but does the award deserve the band?
BET award?
@@justinschexnayder8485 Yes, and he Kentucky Derby too
mastodon has been an outlet for me for so long now, they help me navigate through tough times and it makes me feel less alone in this sometimes terrifying world.

@@notsure1969 uhhh... nope
@@notsure1969 nope. It's heat
Total genius lyric’s
Well, those worda really hit me hard at heart.
New favorite music video. Love how they paid respect to 90's grunge.
It’s like Today by The Smashing Pumpkins imo I love it
Strong Heart Shaped Box vibes, yeah
Smh
@@romanoid And very Black Hole Sun by Soundgarden
What the heck
Such a great extension to have more vocal textures
My favourite song and riff on H&G, Brann's vocals just give me chills
Brann's vocal melody in this with that main riff just hit different. My favourite tune from them in years
Once you hit that four minute mark you get completely lost in the glory and magnificence of the sound. This is a special song.
This is one of their greatest works.. killed it boys.
Been following these guys , since the early club gigs here in Atlanta. Went to school with Troy’s younger brother. It has been great to see their evolution. Such great song writing and textures on this new album. A true masterpiece.
🎸🎶
Brent Hinds solos just always hit different
Damn straight. That solo in Oblivion is probably one of the most intense musical experiences I've ever had.
Brent’s solo open a whole different layer to a already amazing song
In my top 3 guitarists, especially coming from the last 20 years he's just so consistent, same with the band.
The moment she bites that apple off and smiles in the camera while the breakdown kicks in something inside me just freaks out on a primal level.
The music video is really well made, the colors, the costumes, everything about it is really impressive!
My favorite Mastodon song
The guitar solo starting at 5:44 will be a rock-classic in due time. Unreal.
Brings me to tears almost every time it's that chilling
That section seriously reminds me of the ending of Alter Bridge - Show me a Sign. Just pure melancholy bliss.
@@grabber_blu_angel Dalton I appreciate you but keep Altar Bridge out of this GD thread. God bless.
@@welp3904 Mwahahha.
But you right. I nearly spit out my dessert when I read his shit. 😂
It's epic. Entire album is stunning.
I fucking love mastodon and the fact they are going 20+ years and still whacking out killer tracks like this is just beyond words and beyond talent. The album is amazing, and this in particular is just a foot stomping, fist in the air, balls to the walls ANTHEM!!
LONG LIVE MASTODON
I've been listening to them since i was 14. I'm 31 now. Man time flies.
The riffs, the video, the lyrics, the singing....then that god damned solo! Dirty B Hinds is one of the best ever, fight me!
Cant. You are 100% right.
Dirty B Hinds is criminally underrated as a lead player!
Cookie cutter comment is cookie cutter.
This video need to be shown on every theater and videography class. A masterpiece 👏
These guys never disappoint. Pure musician's in every way. Brann is my favorite drummer
They have been disappointing for over a decade. They stopped caring about the music and started caring about the money.
@@officialmetalwill Wtf are you talking about? I really do hope that to be sarcasm. I mean, if you don`t like their music, no problem. But them caring about money over music? Bullshit
@@officialmetalwill Really dumb take.
That final progression from the Bite of the Apple onward gives me the most awesome shivers.
This song is a masterpiece, I even feel some Jerry Cantrell influence - in a good way - great job guys!
Definitely!
can´t think how that could be said in a bad way
@@xphantasmax5451 lol, spot on
Yes! Knew it sounded familiar.
Thickening gives me some AiC vibes too.
Thank you @Mastodon for this masterpiece 🙇🙇🙇🙇🙇
Long time metal fan. Since the early to mid-90s. This is my first Mastodon song. This song is incredible. There's so much subtlety in it in their transitions and in the tone and harmonics. This band has great vocals too. These guys freaking rock.
Welcome! Personal recommendation for the first album you dive into: Blood Mountain or Crack the Skye. Enjoy!
I never thought this band would hit my soul the way it did.....but I am forever thankful that my Soldier brother Mad-Dog introduced me to them.
Mastodon is one of those bands in a league of their own. No one does what Mastodon does.
This song hits hard for me. I may only be 21 years old, but when I reached adulthood I made decisions that were "more than I could chew" and ripped the rest of my childhood away from me with no chance to savor it.
The ending with branns vocals hit me especially. I want to run back to my past self. Relish in the simplicity that was life, but I don't know when I can, or even if I can.
I grew up with mastodon, and their music kinda grew with me too. My #1 band of all time.
as i grow older, these guys make more sense. Their songs twist, slither and contort in a manner which keeps things interesting and fresh. I like.
man perfectly said
That riff is just *chef's kiss*
the bar has been set high, a video that looks directed by David Lynch and a song that is an absolute masterpiece.
I can listen this song everyday y'all are amazing Mastodon

Badass lyrics guys! LONG LIVE MASTODON!
Will she say when?
Have a safe place for us?
Still exist a place to return?
Above all the mistakes and the choices, forget until you know the time is right.
Song gives me chills. I was listening to this and watching the video when I got the call that my long time friend and drummer had past away! Love you Jon!!! Rest in peace brother! Getcha a pull!
Literally first Mastodon song I've ever heard or video seen. 10 out of 10 would do again.
Do it! They're an incredible band, and impressive musicians!
Go listen to Crack The Skye, it's their best album imo
Oh man, you are in for a great experience!! Highly recommend listening to Crack the Sky all the way through in order when you have the time to spare. It’s an other worldly experience
Same and I was not disappointed
Welcome 🤙🤙
What an epic song this is…
That 9/8 time signature outro with THAT riff and THAT SOLO and THOSE vocals are you kidding me i hereby declare this the best fucking song ive ever heard THANKYOU MASTODON
Just got my signed poster from Bill himself yesterday and they drop a new vid today, great few days thanks to these guys
Mastodon is a perfect band. What absolute legends.
One of those bands that just keep getting better with songwriting and never getting dull.
My favorite song
Yep this is it
4:35 onwards might just be my favourite part of any song.
This song is a fucking masterpiece.
always love hearing Brann sings
It's crazy that they have 3 singers and they are all good. Like they could carry as lead singer in any other band.
I love this song, my personal favorite from the album, glad to see it finally get a video.
This song has such great build up, emotionally pressing and pushing, expanding...it amazes me..
Eh
RIFF IS HARD AF
Impossible to find the words to say how much I love everything about this song and its accompanying video. That's a s close as I can get. Saved my fucking life.
