Yes-Big Generator (8/10)

 

I don't think this is as strong as 90125.  In fact i think the first side is pretty weak sauce.

 

Side 2 though is Freakishly good.

 

Love Will Find A Way

Final Eyes

I'm Running (this song is crazy, lol  whether that's good or bad is your choice i think it's awesome!!!)

Holy Lamb (beautiful closer.)

 

it's really weird i find this album back loaded(huh huh..back load, lol.....ah i'm 12)  But all the album's good stuff is on side 2 IMO. you didn't see that TOO often back then when they'd front load singles on side 1 normally.

Mastodon-Blood Mountain (8/10)I know this a fav and i like it.  But it'as not my fav.  there still very much a sludge metal band here.......BUT the cool thing is there introducing new sounds andd gradually dropping the over use of Screams (sorry not my cup of tea)

 

I can't believe some fans were shocked by Crack the Skye.  trey were TELLING YOU where they'd go on this record ya goofs, lol

 

i kid.  But i do here elements of CTS being born here. Also kind of a bummer brann is really not a vocalist on early mastodon.  his softer voice was always a nice counter to Troy and ESPECIALLY Brent's ozzy-ish voice,

i like this album.  but i don't find it as uniformly strong as the Hunter.....just me.  i find i love the first 4 songs.  it sags midway.But picks up again at the last 3 songs.

 

still a great record though.

Funny, one of the sagging "midway" songs is easily my fave on the album. Not only that, it's probably even a Top 5 track: Asleep in the Deep. 

 

I find it melancholy and kind of spooky.

Edit: I'm loving all the Mastodon chatter here lately. Almost makes me want to do a marathon again.

oh so i went back and played the album i have to apologize cause i forgot all about Asleep in the Deep.  great song.  What really brings this album down is the final track.  it's basically a Scott Kelley lead.  and if Mastodon has a flaw it's their Scott Kelly obsession.  I HATE his "singing".

Carole King - Tapestry.  I'm familiar with most of these songs, of course, but I had never banged out the whole album in one sitting before.  

Such a great classic!
