MASTODON’s 13-minute song, ‘The Last Baron’, is now streaming at the band’s MySpace page. The song is from the band’s latest album, Crack The Skye, released on March 24th via Warner Bros Records.
As previously reported, on May 5th Gary Graff from Billboard.com checked in with the following:
A film adaptation of Mastodon's latest album, Crack The Skye, is well within the realm of possibility - albeit not in production yet.
Drummer and lyricist Brann Dailor tells Billboard.com that the heavy rocking Atlanta quartet sat down with a film director, who he declines to name, and "wrote out a screenplay that reads from song to song. We didn't storyboard it, but we wrote a screenplay." Three different directors, he adds, have expressed interest in taking on the project.
"That'd be killer if it actually happens," Dailor says. "That's something that's cool about making concept records, that opportunity for more to be done, artistically. If you just had an album with a bunch of songs that didn't have anything to do with each other and there was no common thread, that aspect of the art wouldn't be there. But with ('Crack the Skye'), we have that possibility."Read more here.
