Just saw Mastodon a few weeks ago. Been a fan for a few years and ya... What is so incredibly shocking is how they play incredibly complex shit all night without missing a single note. It's truly extraordinary. Absolutely love them. Not even a metal guy per se, but something about Mastodon just hits home.

Bill Bailey is a man of culture. He once commended this grindcore band's song called "The Girl in the Slayer Jacket" for having such thoughtful lyrics. Ps. The grindcore band's name is Pig Destroyer. It's ironic cos their band name is stupd af but their lyrics are incredibly poetic. Arguably some of the best lyrics in extreme metal

I don't know if that lyric is poetic, but is a good lyric.. I just read it. I don't listen to Pig Destroyer. It's a really really reeaaaally sad lyric. Sometimes my boogers won't stop dancing in my nosetrils. But you can't compare that to a song that maybe could ruin your thoughts. Yes, thoughts. Gorgonzolla.

I saw Mastodon in '99 in Canada It was freezing fucking cold outside. I was front row ans I remember Brent being un fucking real on the guitar, even back then. After the show we were all outside smoking and Brent himself shows up and has a smoke with us. I told him that was the best guitar playing I had ever heard, he was do humble and chill and thanked me for the compliment. Ive seen them 5 times since. Amazing talent in that band.

I love people with wide and varied tastes. I pride myself on having the same and find it normal for Bill Bailey to love Debussy, Mastodon and Mongolian Throat-Singing. It's NOT normal to stop growing as a person at 18 and spend the rest of yr miserable life flying only the classic rock Clapton/Beatles/Eagles flag. Most people are that way. To me, Meshuggah is as good as Simon & Garfunkel, Aphex Twin, opera or Throbbing Gristle.

People who are sniffy about metal just don’t have a clue about music…he’s absolutely right… some of the best musicians in the world are metal musicians… so much other guitar music is so basic in comparison…. I saw Elbow few years ago, not really my bag, and I was distracted by how little the guitarist was doing in the majority of the songs-so basic so boring, don’t how he didn’t get bored himself…
