It's pretty cool to hear them do something like that, but I like Mastodon with vocals waaay more than instrumental Mastodon.

Leviathan would be my next favourite, it just feels huge and completely bad-ass. It was also my first Mastodon album.
I'm not sure whether I like Leviathan or Crack The Skye more. Crack The Skye has awesome melodies and a pretty interesting theme, but a raw, sludgy album about sea creatures is pretty hard to beat.
