MASTODON BEGIN WORK ON NEW ALBUM[views:17534][posts:6]_____________________________________ [Mar 5,2004 3:02pm - the_reverend ""] March 5th, 2004 For Immediate Release MASTODON BEGIN WORK ON NEW ALBUM Relapse Records recording artists MASTODON have begun the recording of their forthcoming full-length album, entitled Leviathan. MASTODON is recording at both Robert Lang Studios (NIRVANA, PRETTY GIRLS MAKE GRAVES, FOO FIGHTERS) and Litho Studios (DEFTONES, SOUNDGARDEN, BOTCH) in Seattle with producer Matt Bayles. Bayles, who previously worked alongside MASTODON on their critically acclaimed Remission album, has also worked with artists such as PEARL JAM, THE BLOOD BROTHERS and ISIS. Leviathan will be mixed at Robert Lang and is slated for a Summer, 2004 release date via Relapse. Advance song titles include "Naked Burn", "Iceland", "Hearts Alive", "Seabeast", "Iron Tusk", "Blood and Thunder" and "Megalodon". Drummer Brann Dailor comments, "I think the new material is a natural progression for MASTODON. Some of it will be more direct and some of it will be a lot more complex. People are going to be surprised by some of the technical aspects of it, but it's also very catchy. (When we're writing new music), as long as we feel the hairs standing up on the back of our neck, we know we've got something." Updated MASTODON news / tour information will be made available via the Relapse Records website: www.RELAPSE.com and the MASTODON website: www.MASTODONROCKS.com.

| ______________________________________ [Mar 5,2004 3:10pm - Joe/NotCommon ""] I have been trying to figure out which band is gayer ; The Foo Fighters or the Deftones. Since the singer from the Deftones is a big wigger who became a big mod, I vote for the Deftones as being gayer. |
| _________________________________________ [Mar 5,2004 3:13pm - TheGreatSpaldino ""] although the Foo Fighters has mr. Grohl who stopped playing drums to play guitar and do vocals so he could get all the fame... which is pretty gay too... The Deftones are still gayer though |
| _______________________________ [Mar 5,2004 4:09pm - morkul ""] ohh, i don't know, that's a toss up. both extremely gay. who's gayer linkin park or limp bizkit. yet another dreadful toss up. |
| __________________________________________ [Mar 5,2004 4:24pm - SmallBrownRatFuck ""] Deftones are fucking gay. I still have lingering bias towards Nirvana so I can't completely say that Foo Fighters is gay. |
