MASTODON will issue their first-ever live experience package - Mastodon: Live At The Aragon - on March 15th via Reprise Records.

Drummer Brann Dailor states, "One of my favorite things about the DVD is that it comes with the tour movie that played behind us perfectly synced up with the album giving it a whole new visual life, watch it!" A preview of the track 'Oblivion' can be seen below:

Mastodon: Live At The Aragon will contain a CD and DVD which captures the band’s sonic assault recorded and filmed live October 19th, 2009, at the Aragon Ballroom in Chicago, IL while touring in support of its critically-applauded album, Crack The Skye.

Mastodon: Live At The Aragon DVD + CD is comprised of Crack The Skye performed live in its glorious entirety along with fan favorites from Blood Mountain (2006) and Leviathan (2004) plus a brutal cover of 'The Bit' by the MELVINS. A dozen blistering tracks that loudly displays Mastodon’s unmatched virtuosic prowess at the apex of their career to date. The DVD program contains a full 78 minute live visual concert experience filmed in Chicago and is a stunning representation of the band captured in their most natural and primal element.

The DVD will also feature a 58 minute "tour film” entitled Crack the Skye: The Movie, and contains the films which were projected on screen, behind the band in performance. These images were created specifically to illustrate the conceptual thread linking each of the songs on Crack the Skye and are exclusive to this package for the very first time giving the fans a brand new way to re-experience Crack The Skye.

Mastodon is currently writing new material for their next album, with a view to record later this year. The band will return to the road in June. A complete concert listing can be found here.
