Pink Mastodon!

[andygates]

Just think of all the animals you ever heard about
Like rhinocerouses tigers cats and mink
There are lots of funny animals in all the world
But have you ever seen a mastodon that's pink?
Think!  A mastodon that's positively pink?

The opening drumroll of Mastodon's album Blood Mountain has been niggling since I first heard it.  Now I'm convinced I know why: the Texan math-rockers lifted it wholesale from the opening to the Pink Panther cartoons.  I call Easter egg!

While I'm here...

Have you heard the new Pendulum album? Is it any good?

I have. T'is tighter and more symphonic. Fewer guest vocalists on tracks like Tarantula so less jarring difference, or on the flipside, more samey. Certainly tight as a gnat's arse. I'll post the ongoing review as I listen (and headbang) at work.
