  • Mastodon Emperor of Sand
    MASTODON EMPEROR OF SAND Every living creature must face the will and judgment of time. Ancient Greeks personified time in the form of the titan Kronos, father of Zeus, and Egyptians celebrated Heh as an abstraction of endless years. Famously, William Shakespeare lamented humanity’s immutable fate as “time’s subjects” in Henry IV. GRAMMY® Award-nominated hard rock band Mastodon ponders the nature of time on their eighth full-length album, Emperor of Sand, on Reprise Bros. Records. Threading together the myth of a man sentenced to death in a majestically malevolent desert, the Atlanta, GA quartet—Troy Sanders (bass/vocals), Brent Hinds (guitar/vocals), Bill Kelliher (guitars) and Brann Dailor (drums/vocals), and conjure the grains of a musical and lyrical odyssey slipping quickly through a cosmic hourglass. “Emperor of Sand is like the grim reaper,” admits Dailor. “Sand represents time. If you or anyone you know has ever received a terminal diagnosis, the first thought is about time. Invariably, you ask, ‘How much time is left?’” Since forming back in 2000, Mastodon have certainly made the most of their time. Most recently, their 2014 seventh offering Once More ‘Round The Sun bowed at #6 on the Billboard Top 200, marking their highest chart entry to date and second consecutive Top 10 debut following 2011’s The Hunter. Casting a shadow over pop culture, they received “Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance” GRAMMY® Award nominations in 2007, 2014 and again in 2015. Their music blasted through the Academy® Award-winning comedy The Big Short, animated blockbuster Monsters University, and sci-fi western Jonah Hex starring Josh Brolin—for which the group composed the score.

  • Once More 'Round the Sun Song-By-Song
    ONCE MORE ‘ROUND THE SUN SONG-BY-SONG “Tread Lightly” Troy Sanders: “I was personally very proud of it because I was able to mask a lot of thoughts metaphorically between my wife, my daughter, and myself. These were things we had talked about and experienced. It’ll only probably show itself to me personally, but I remember I was very happy to create a song that meant something on multiple levels for only those who are super close to me. Hopefully, the rest of the world will like it too. Brann’s chorus just killed it. I knew that would be the winner of the song. I want things to come across as meaningful and not just as cupcakes and sprinkles on top of a pretty jar of Play-Doh. We’re not a kids’ band. We’re trying to be men here. The word trying is the most important! That song will hold its substance for me personally as I listen to it hundreds and hundreds of times in the future.” Brann Dailor: “I love that opening riff. It’s super-driving and heavy. I couldn’t believe it when I heard Troy’s vocals over the top of it. I think he did such a good job. It’s one of my favorite moments of his. I picture him on top of a mountain. It’s got a total Game Of Thrones vibe. Troy sounds like a total badass. He delivered.” “The Motherload” Brann Dailor: “Lyrically, it’s personal. It’s not wanting to lose someone and the powers-that-be are trying to take that person away or the world is just against it.
