Previously announcing the one off megashow that would feature, Gojira, Opeth and Devin Townsend, the other three, youknow small bands would be having a tour of their own, whilst candidly announcing Mastodon’s new album.
Headlining a tour which seems pretty eclectic, yet strangely a perfect fit for the bands, Mastodon will be heading out on a US tour mid April. Regarding the news the band comments :
“Hey! Good news everybody, we are hitting the road this spring with some great friends of ours Eagles of Death Metal and Russian Circles. We couldn’t be more excited to pour majestic rock sauce all over your town. Come on down and help us celebrate the season of new beginnings where fresh buds bloom, animals awaken, the earth comes to life and there’s a new Mastodon album to melt your face off! See you there!”
Now the most interesting part of that is the final section. Looks like we will have a brand new Mastodon album announced for sooner than we might think! My money is on early April to coincide with the tour. The show will also coincide with the DTP, Gojira and Opeth megatour. Be sure to pick up your tickets and keep your ears and eyes peeled!
