Mastodon: Emperor of Sand (180g, Colored Vinyl) Vinyl 2LP J Dilla aka Jay Dee reviewed by Casualry 09/2016Now on Pink vinyl. Mastodon returns with their 7th full length! The Atlanta based band are keeping things extra heavy on Emperor of Sand, building upon the success of 2014's Once More Round The Sun. The concept album weaves a tale of a desert wanderer who is handed a death sentence, an analogy for band leader Brann Dailor's experiences with cancer. Includes the Billboard charting single "Show Yourself," "Steambreather," "Jaguar God," "Eons," and more.
