Blood Mountain is probably their most complete album, it has a better flow and consistency than Remission and Leviathan. It really feels like you're on a journey going up Blood Mountain and meeting all these obstacles along the way. I love the really weird and different vibes the album has in places, like in 'Bladecatcher' and 'Sleeping Giant', it gives the album a real sense of depth.
Leviathan would be my next favourite, it just feels huge and completely bad-ass. It was also my first Mastodon album.
Yeah i heard that they soundtracked a film but i wasn't really too pushed to investigate it. Wouldn't mind a link though.
