Mastodon’s next album is going to be double with its first part written by Brent Hinds and the second by the rest, according to an interview he gave to Guitar World. “It’s shaping up to be a double album. One is an album I wrote myself and recorded with Brann and Troy during the Once More ‘Round The Sun sessions. My part is called Cold Dark Place – it has to do with a nasty breakup that I went through. I wrote some pretty dark, beautiful, spooky, funky, ethereal, melancholy music”, said Hinds. “The other guys are writing another album, which I haven’t even heard yet, so I can’t tell you what it sounds like”, he added. Mastodon are on tour during the summer with a show in Athens on August 30th…
