É verdade. Em declarações à Billboard, a banda mostrou-se orgulhosa do novo trabalho, Crack the Skye, a ser lançado já este mês, dizendo que é o seu álbum preferido até à data. O guitarrista Bill Kelliher disse que iriam tocar o álbum na íntegra nos concertos da tour norte americana e, possivelmente (eu digo obrigatoriamente), alguns temas de álbuns anteriores. Claro que será extremamente improvável que isto aconteça na Europa, nomeadamente em Portugal, mas... pode ser que eles tomem tanto gosto à coisa que imponham à organização do Optimus Alive!09 esta condição. O baterista Brann Dailor pronunciou-se também acerca do conceito do novo trabalho da banda, palavras essas que podem ler em baixo. Recordo que os Mastodon irão tocar no nosso país dia 9 de Julho, concerto esse incluído no festival Optimus Alive!09 e dia esse em que já figuram nomes como Metallica, Slipknot e Lamb Of God.
Brann Dailor:
"It's about a crippled young man who experiments with astral travel. He goes up into outer space, goes too close to the sun, gets his golden umbilical cord burned off, flies into a wormhole, is thrust into the spirit real, has conversations with spirits about the fact that he's not really dead, and they decide to help him. They put him into a divination that's being performed by an early-20th-century Russian Orthodox sect called the Klisti, which Rasputin is part of. Knowing Rasputin is about to be murdered, they put the young boy's spirit inside of Rasputin. Rasputin goes to usurp the throne of the czar and is murdered by the Yusupovs, and the boy and Rasputin fly out of Rasputin's body up through the crack in the sky and head back. Rasputin gets him safely back into his body. That's the basic story, but it's all metaphors for personal sh*t."
