Crack The Skye's clearly the least immediate release in Mastodon's oeuvre. Which isn't to say it's bad. It just takes a few more close listenings (and, as you'll soon discover, an acceptance of their increased progginess.) Instead of the raw crustiness you found, even amid the most ambitious arcs of Remission, Leviathan, and Blood Mountain, Crac...
