Mastodon Premiere "Snakes For Dinner" Video Featuring Josh Homme - Announce Ninth Album "Marrow Deep"

GRAMMY Award-winning progressive sludge metal band Mastodon have officially announced their ninth studio album, “Marrow Deep“. The record marks the band's first full-length without former guitarist/vocalist Brent Hinds, following his departure in early 2025. Hinds tragically passed away in a motorcycle accident last August after what had been an unamicable split with the band.

Set for release on August 28th through Loma Vista Recordings, the 12-track album arrives with its second advance single, “Snakes For Dinner“. The accompanying music video, now streaming below, features a guest appearance from Queens Of The Stone Age mastermind Josh Homme. The collaboration reunites Homme with Mastodon for the first time since his guest spot on “Colony Of Birchmen” from the band's 2006 album “Blood Mountain“, aside from his additional bonus contribution to that record.

Mastodon commented on the new single and album announcement:

“You have all been asking for it, so we are excited to announce our new album, ‘Marrow Deep‘, will be released August 28th, 2026 and we are kicking it off with a new video for our new song ‘Snakes For Dinner‘, which features an appearance from our long time friend, Josh Homme.

It’s been quite the journey making this album, and we are very happy with how it came out, we can not wait for you to hear the whole thing! Until then, check out the new video, and pre-order a copy of the album today. Stay tuned, we’l keep bringing you updates, content and bunch of other cool fun stuff!

As always, thank you for being part of our world. We look forward to seeing you all on the Poisonous Weapons Tour and beyond!”
