Whatever happened to these guys. If their next record went back to something like the three first ones i would be so happy.

I really like the hunter, what's so bad about it?

in my opinion, they stopped sounding like Mastodon and instead started sounding like various rock and metal bands that came before them.

I like when bands evolve,  like when Deftones went from ATF to White Pony.

I like that as well, but to me Mastodon rather went in the opposite direction. WP is in my opinion when Deftones found their own sound, while ATF sounds like pretty generic nu-metal. and this is Mastodon's ATF.

[Crazylegs]

They lost their edge.  The Hunter is just plain boring. You can still hear the mastodon sound, but it just feels so generic and bland. "It's just the curl of the burl, it's just the way of the world", come on! Really!

Disagree, I also listen to bands like Eyehategod Down and Baroness and such, and the hunter reminds me of that so i like it. My favorite song by them is Iron Tusk though From the Leviathan album, My god that song is awesome. That riff.. is just punishing.

[Crazylegs]

This may be an opinion i don't share with many, but i didn't like baroness' last effort that much either.

I loved it...

[bright lights, big city]

yeah Yellow and Green is one of my faves of 2012. And I have nothing against The Hunter either. It was what it was. It wasn't the usual Mastodon of old, but it was still enjoyable to me. Bands gotta evolve somewhat, even if some old fans don't like it.

I been listening to the new Torche record it's really good and my favorite of that style.

I was into The Hunter when it came out but I rarely, if ever, listen to it anymore. It's sad. I still love Mastodon and it's a good record but it didn't blow me away by any means. And honestly, I hate The Creature Lives. But Blasteroid and Dry Bone Valley are great songs.

i think the hunter is a GREAT album, honestly. the flow of it is fantastic. great instrumentation. varied enough sonically to not be boring, but still feels like a really cohesive piece of work.

double agreed.

I really like the direction Mastodon has gone.  I wasn't big into their early albums but Crack the Skye was a masterpiece.  The Hunter was pretty good too as well as Blood Mountain.  When those guys take time to make a record, it comes out brilliant.  Their drummer is a beast.
