Biography

Atlanta's Mastodon emerged in 1999 as a pioneering force in American metal, blending stoner, sludge, hardcore, prog, and more into their genre-defying sound. With intricate instrumentation and concept albums like 2004's Leviathan, based on Moby Dick, the band quickly gained critical acclaim and commercial success. Their evolution continued with 2017's Grammy-nominated Emperor of Sand and the 2021 release of the expansive Hushed and Grim, showcasing their diverse influences and musical growth.

Mastodon's journey from Relapse Records to Warner Bros. has solidified their status as one of the leading acts in the New Wave of American Heavy Metal movement. Their discography, including standout albums like Blood Mountain and Crack the Skye, has garnered Grammy nominations and widespread recognition for their innovative approach to metal music. With their latest single "Floods of Triton" in collaboration with Lamb of God, Mastodon remains at the forefront of the metal scene, celebrating their legacy while continuing to push boundaries in their sound.
