So then was it all from Heritage and Damnation? Or just Heritage? Or did they throw in clean bits from other albums too?

Personally, I don't care for scales. That's not just for noise, or avant-garde, either. There's no reason why you can't right fully harmonic/melodic music completely ignoring them. I think there's gaps in the system that can easily be matched with human intuition which is often more substantial than 'theory math'.

Glad you enjoyed Mastadon, though. I really need to get out to concerts more. Last thing I saw was Battles, and that was in freaking August.
Yeah I'm probably misusing that word. So put it this way: Dillinger waged war with my ears, and my ears were on the losing side. How was Battles? That was post-Tyondai right?
