Does this mean I should pass on the new one? I love Mastodon so if the new stuff's bad I don't even want to hear it.

With the choruses, I think they were just trying to address criticism about their vocals and they certainly dealt with it as the vocals are top notch. However, this doesn't mean that they shirked everything else. The guitar work is EXCELLENT as is Dailor's drumming. There's a lot to like in the new album, there just won't be sludge pooling around your body after giving the album a listen.
