Mastodon Post New Song Online

A brand new MASTODON track, entitled "Crystal Skull", has been posted online on the band's official MySpace page. The song, which features guest vocals by Scott Kelly of NEUROSIS, will be included on the band's upcoming third album, "Blood Mountain", due on September 12 via the band's new label, Warner Bros. A limited edition seven-inch single containing "Crystal Skull" will be released through Relapse Records on August 8. More information can be found at this location. The album's cover artwork was posted online on the band's official web site as an interactive puzzle, where the pieces must be dragged and dropped to create the cover. Check it out here.

"Blood Mountain" was recorded with Seattle-based producer Matt Bayles (ISIS, HORSE THE BAND). The CD was mixed in New York by Rich Costey (AUDIOSLAVE, MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE). Other songtitles set to appear on the follow-up to 2004's "Leviathan" include "Circle of Cysquatch", "Hunters of the Sky", "The Sleeping Giant", "Bladecatcher", "The Colony of Birchmen", "Pendulous Skin", "The Siberian Divide", "Capillarian Crest", "Hand of Stone", "The Wolf Is Loose" and "This Mortal Soil".
