can they top Crack the Skye?

[theis]

I hope the next album is heavier. A nice mix of Leviathan and Crack the Skye would be sweet.

[Crazylegs]

I agree. I love Crack the skye, but i think it's become my least favorite of theirs.

i'd rank it third after leviathan and blood mountain. i love all their albums but those two just can't be touched for me. every one of their albums is a masterpiece though.

The song they did for the Aqua Teen Hunger Force movie is pimp.

[tarkil]

[RoyalDeftonicBoy]

That is so awesome.Their last album was awesome but my favorite stills Blood Mountain.The Czar is by far one of the best songs I've ever heard.

[E-Money]

Good shit!  Really looking forward to this!

MAstodon more than anyone, garner love for all their albums from varying sections of their fans...they have pulled off more than anyone I can think of, changing musical direction without losing an overall greatness to each record.  In saying that though, I still love Remission the most.  Then Leviathan, Crack the Skye, Lifesblood and lastly Blood Mountain - its easily the least revisited for me.

Atlanta progressive metallers MASTODON will release a new live DVD/CD, "Live At The Aragon", on March 15 via Reprise. The set was filmed/recorded during the band's October 17, 2009 concert at the Aragon Ballroom in Chicago, Illinois and it features a performance of the "Crack The Skye" album, along with other tracks from MASTODON's back catalog, plus a MELVINS cover.

MASTODON's setlist for the show was as follows:

01. Oblivion
02. Divinations
03. Quintessence
04. The Czar
05. Ghost of Karelia
06. Crack The Skye
07. The Last Baron
08. Circle of Cysquatch
09. Aqua Dementia
10. Where Strides The Behemoth
11. Mother Puncher
12. The Bit (MELVINS cover)




Some dude is saying that setlist is missing these tracks

8.Crusher Destroyer
9.Crystal Skull
10.I Am Ahab
11.Capillarian Crest
12.Aqua Dementia
13.Circle of Cysquatch
14.Iron Tusk
15.March of the Fire Ants
16.Blood and Thunder

Is that right?
I really hope is 20 songs not 12
If anyone was at that show please confirm if the setlist is correct.

[bright lights, big city]

I'm not gonna say it was 20, but there was definitely more than 12. And I remember them playing Iron Tusk, I Am Ahab, and Blood And Thunder at the very least.

Are those 12 songs the official track list for the dvd/cd?

[RoyalDeftonicBoy]

Thats what it says in Blabbermouth.com. Im also waiting for a 20 DVD songs =) Hopefully our dream will be fullfilled =)

[RoyalDeftonicBoy]

= / Sadly is been confirmed only 12 songs

Mastodon - "Live At The Aragon" Trailer

[bright lights, big city]

brings back good memories. what a great venue, btw.

and this 12 song business kind of pisses me off. i'm positive there was a lot of older stuff they played after they finished playing through Crack the Skye.

[RoyalDeftonicBoy]

Yeah man I wanted more too !!!!!!Where is Blood and thunder and Crusher Destroyer !!!!!!!??!?!?!?!
