Bone to pick with MB (metal, rock, cd, metallica)

TheBig3 · 04-28-2005, 08:23 PM

So I went and picked up Mastadon today on the approval of every article in every publication I could find as well as everyone who responded to the post I made here.

I picked up the CD today. I think its garbage. Maybe I should give it a few more plays, but only Iron Tusk had some semblance of a riff, and the rest was just tuned down chords.

It wasn't bad, but to be touted as the second coming of metallica and rush combined, you'd better be that damn good. I feel it fell short.

Leviathan took a while to "click" for me, at first i thought "nothing special", but after a few listens i really liked it. "Hearts Alive" is my favorite track.

metallica and rush?... nah...
