## Resource

Mastodon’s long-awaited return is here — their first album in five years, Marrow Deep, drops August 28, featuring a haunting new chapter with a revamped lineup and a powerful tribute to their late frontman Brent Hinds. The explosive lead single “Snakes for Dinner” brings in Josh Homme on vocals and in the video, reigniting their legendary 2006 collab “Colony of Birchmen.” With Brann Dailor, Troy Sanders, and Bill Kelliher joined by guitarist Nick Johnston and keyboardist João Nogueira, the band co-produced the record with Patrik Berger and Kurt Ballou. They’re also releasing “Your Ghost Again” and the touching short film The Mastodon in the Room to honor Hinds. The Poisonous Weapons Tour with Deafheaven and Alcest is set to ignite the new era — and Troy Sanders says the band feels more united and hungry than ever, channeling that same early magic.
