Well fuck, that new Mastodon song is awesome. In honor, this week's crusty clip goes out to Mastodon. Blood and Thunder is one of my favorite Mastodon songs, easily the best song on Leviathan (my least favorite album of theirs), and features (in my opinion) one of the best guitar riffs of all time. Yeah, I went there. One of the best parts about Mastodon is their ability to take something that should sound "mathy" and have it come off as "neanderthal" as possible. Without further adieu:

"...easily the best song on Leviathan"
*Easily*? Oh, I beg to differ, sir. If it weren't for "Hearts Alive" or "Megalodon", I might be inclined to agree, but as it stands, I refute this claim of easiness.
