Mastodon’s Troy Sanders on Crack The Skye, Lamb of God, and Their Next Album
In a chat fresh off Mastodon’s explosive tour with Lamb of God, bassist and vocalist Troy Sanders reflects on the blistering ride that celebrated both bands’ genre-defining 2004 albums. For Mastodon, it was Leviathan—the towering Moby Dick-inspired beast that cemented their status as one of prog-metal’s boldest risk-takers. The bassist muses on the tour’s energy, comparing it to a reunion of old comrades-in-arms. The band’s fearless ethos, which began with Leviathan and continued with the cosmic, brain-melting Crack the Skye, has always been about pushing limits. Now, with 15 years of Crack the Skye behind them, Sanders is ready to dive into new, uncharted waters, hinting that the band’s latest creative sparks could ignite another daring chapter in Mastodon’s ongoing evolution. As ever, they remain metal’s master architects of chaos and control.
