MASTODON At 'New York Comic Con'; Video Available
April 3, 2009Atlanta-based hard rock behemoths MASTODON took part in a meet-and-greet at the New York Comic Con this past February. They were at the Namco/Bandai kiosk for the debut of the new Splatterhouse game.
VBS.tv's video footage of MASTODON's appearance at the event can be viewed below.
MASTODON's new album, "Crack The Skye", sold 41,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to land at position No. 11 on The Billboard 200 chart.
MASTODON's 2006 CD, "Blood Mountain", came in with just over 24,000 units — significantly more than the 8,000 first-week tally registered by its predecessor, 2004's "Leviathan" — which put it at No. 32.
"Divinations", the new video from MASTODON, is available below. The clip was helmed by director Roboshobo (a.k.a. Robert Schober; METALLICA's "All Nightmare Long"),who previously worked with MASTODON on the "Sleeping Giant" video, and it depicts the bandmembers on a rock 'n' roll mission, trudging through the frozen tundra. "We're climbing a mountain looking for a creature named Brent," guitarist Bill Kelliher told HeadbangersBlog.com. "We were mountaineers — explorers, like in John Carpenter's 'The Thing'."
