Look, let’s be honest here: we all know that I’m an expert on movies and ninjas and women.  BUT, what few realize is that I’m also an expert of freakin’ rock and roll.  It’s true, I got my masters in rock from the School of MY FIST IN YOUR FACE, so step off, buddy.

Anyway, I’m here to tell you about Mastodon’s latest and greatest album Crack the Skye.  Apparently, they spent all of their money on drugs and guitars and couldn’t afford an intern to check the spelling on the cover of the CD, oh well.

Anyway, it’s got cool art with like two twin kings barfing light at each other while a bear wrestles with the earth.  Cool.  Metal.

The music is pretty rad too.  It’s supposed to be some sort of concept album about a psychic in a wheelchair or something.  I don’t really know.  The music is awesome, but not as heavy as some of their older stuff.  Except for the title track which has growling vocals and double bass pedal.  My mom hates that song because it sounds like devil music or something.

Anyway, highly recommended if you’re tired of listening to all of your Backstreet Boys albums and want to become a real man.  But if not, that’s fine too, just don’t talk to me any more.  I only talk to my fellow metal-heads.

Anyway, behold the METAL below:
