Brent Hinds (Mastodon) and EVH should work together

[Jbird]

There was a guy at HC that would post himself covering Mastodon songs. For the life of me I can't find them now on youtube, but they were pretty killer. I actually liked watching him play the stuff. But just sitting down and listening to a Mastodon album always leaves me a bit meh.

I kinda like this video, but it's not the same guy (guy on HC had black hair, a beard, and was from Europe if I remember rightly).

To be fair, just Flamencology's opinion on metal is worth that much

If I was looking for advice on jazz, like which Kenny G album is best, or how much more influential that Chuck Mangione was compared to Miles Davis, then Flamencology would be the first person I'd ask

FWIW, I've seen Mastodon twice. The first time was in 2008, they were supporting Neurosis. It was a terrific show, as far as post-Sabbath metal goes. (Which, really, isn't that far)

See, I should like Mastodon, but for some reason they just don't click with me.

Now, there's a Canadian band out of Vancouver called Anciients that sounds a lot like Mastodon, but have just a bit of Opeth and other stuff going on as well, and I love them (1 album, so far. 2nd coming out later this year).

Just goes to show you that certain music/bands just aren't for everyone

Anciients rules! Vastly superior to Mastodon, though possessing a similar style.

Stoner Metal Supreme!

I've seen them a couple of times also, but the Mastodon's shows were better.

For the most part, their albums are, to me, practically unlistenable due to cringe-worthy recording/production.
