Blood Mountain is the third full-length studio album and major label debut by American heavy metal band Mastodon. The recording of the album finished in April 2006 and it was released on September 12 in the UK and September 12, 2006 in North America through Reprise Records. The album in full could be streamed at the band's MySpace page a few days prior to the release.

Released in 2006, Blood Mountain is Mastodon’s third full-length album and the first for Warner Bros. A concept record, the music details the attempt of a werewolf to summit Blood Mountain and use the crystal skull to remove his reptilian brain, but he encounters difficulty along the way. Additionally, Blood Mountain is also the highest peak on the Appalachian Trail in Georgia and sixth-tallest mountain in Georgia. Blood Mountain Q&A.

However, Blood Mountain is definitely an album that contains mostly the things I like, oh yes. In my opinion, it's the second best Mastodon's release after Crack the Skye. Production of the record is good but honestly, could have been better. All in all, Blood Mountain is a very good eclectic progressive metal album, deeply rooted in sludge metal genre.

The two-year long-wait is over, and those Mastodon fans encouraged but leery of the slicker production of Leviathan over Remission will be even more bemused, or downright bewildered, by Blood Mountain, the band's first foray into major-label territory since signing with Warner Brothers' Reprise imprint (after all, this was the label conceded to Frank Sinatra as his own when. he threatened to leave it). Blood Mountain is everything fans both hoped for and feared.

Surely all the hype is bound to lead to dissappointment" Surely Mastodon must've cracked under the pressure of critical acclaim and the move to a major label and not been able to live up to their reputation as metal revolutionaries" Ladies and gentlemen, you are about to be knocked clean off your high horses, as Blood Mountain is one of the most. However, having listened to Blood Mountain several times, it is readily apparent that this album deserves tenfold the respect and worship lavished upon its predecessor. From the very start, the album is incredibly atmospheric. A recent article on the band that I read recently mentioned that the album exudes a mood of desolate loneliness and bleakness, likening it to the atmosphere created by the ever present spooky red sky in early 90s shoot-em-up game Doom.

Talk about Mastodon - Blood Mountain


Tori Texer
I recently luckily obtained a test pressing of blood mountain. its a VERY odd record, it opens with colony of birchmen which on the final record is track 7 (? 6? whatever) and the tracks seem unmixed? or not final, some songs sound faster than what i am used to these songs ive been listening to for years sounding.....etchings rr7025-10 given to me as a gift from an Relapse employee.so apparently there were a couple runs of test pressings? who knows.
catterpillar

Manarius
Yours is a test out of the box set. For sure.
