      LATEST UPDATE 7/30 – Mastodon Monday – Shadows That Move

      QTayPe3.jpg

      GUITAR/BASS: PhantomBlade8

       

      Shadows That Move is a great intro song to the album Call of the Mastodon. The vocals are great as a growl and they add to the whole song. The guitars in this sing are epic, very heavy and also fast at times. The drumming is amazing as usual with Dailor, and the bass backs everything up well.

        The jazz-rock of ‘Grey Day’ keep you on your toes with extremely impressive musicianship. The outro is a stunning duel between guitar and drums.

          LATEST UPDATE 8/3 – Frank Friday’s – Road Ladies

          GUITAR: ghostbyob

          BASS: ejthedj

          VOCALS: EchoOfMystery

           

          “Road Ladies” is a blues-rock song and the first Zappa track featuring the vocal talents of ex-Turtles Howard Kaylan and Mark Volman and the song that introduced the whole “life on the road” cycle that would obsess the guitarist for two years and lead him to his first completed movie: 200 Motels.

            In general I find the Blues songs to be a lot of fun to play with plastic guitars!! Thanks.

              BASS: TheWay123

               

              “Your Savior” features funky beats and grooves throughout with fantastic drumming. It’s an underrated slice of blues-rock.

                LATEST UPDATE 8/7 – Mastodon Monday – Elephant Man

                EQf8Mj0.jpg

                GUITAR/DRUMS: Chips

                Elephant Man is an 8 minute instrumental that closes out the end of the album. The guitars layer on each other with hyper melodic solo licks and a bass part that subtly keeps it together. The drums are slowed down here and are still precise with original beats. This song features solos that are intensely melodic and again show that control and originality that distinguishes this album from typical sludge metal. The song closes out with a long silence and the sound of pouring rain, adding ambiance and they truly make the song complete.

                  GUITAR/BASS: bsbloom

                  VOCALS: EchoOfMystery

                  “Laughing” peaked at #1 on the Canadian Singles Chart and at #10 on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming the band’s second single to reach the Top 10 on the latter. It also became their second of three gold records.

                      GUITAR: mrcoupdetat

                      BASS: doa

                      “Wooden Jesus” is built on a revolving drum beat by Cameron with some strategically added percussion for extra effect in the intro. Later comes an interesting little banjo during second verse and great wah-wah guitar lead during the bridge.

                        Killer track. Thank you!

                         

                        P.S. woodblocks are the best.

                          0JPiN4g.jpg

                          GUITAR/BASS: PhantomBlade8

                          VOCALS: EchoOfMystery

                          “Slickleg” is a mammoth – pun intended – of a track that goes everywhere, from an acoustic intro to a traditional metal riff, blastbeats, post-rock ambiances and back again, all in the space of four short minutes. Beckoning a mammoth trapped in ice while squelching acoustic tendencies with immediate, squealing thrash riffs and drums rolling starboard.

                            “Bus Rider” was penned by guitarist Kurt Winter as a fifties-style rocker with seventies-style rock riffs to make it overall fun musically.

                              Probably the only Frank Zappa song to be banned from radio airplay, this little single is probably amongst Zappa’s most (and mundanely) performed tracks live. The story entails your average middle American man, Bobby, being the stereotypical male chauvanistic pig on his quest to become an over-educated shit-head. He is the American Dream. While in his studies, he comes across a product of second-wave feminism, a lesbian named Freddie, who convinces and assists him in his own castration. He is the American Dream. Now a eunuch, Bobby has gone into the entertainment biz, though many are unaware to his sexual proclivites. In the end, he descends into more sexually depraved acts, such as sitting on the Tower of Power. He is the American Dream and he’s going down.

                                “Four Walled World” examines the metaphorical prison of a life constrained by pain and addiction, both serving as unequivocal allusions to Wood’s suffering and ultimate fate.
