Mastodon reveal two projects in the works – “There’s tons of music”

Mastodon drummer Brann Dailor was questioned about the band’s future intentions in a recent interview with Loudwire Nights regarding their “Ashes Of Leviathan” North American co-headlining tour with Lamb Of God.

Dailor disclosed:

Riffs. Drum beats and riffs. I can’t really divulge too much. It’s a hush-hush operation, very top secret.. I don’t wanna spoil it.There’s lots of music, that’s all I can say. There’s tons of music. We’ve been writing pretty much this whole time that we’ve been off since we got home from South America. And after we got home from South America with Gojira, we opened Christmas presents and then, since like February or so, we’ve just been working hard making two different projects, not a double album, but two different projects. So that’s the nugget I can share with you. Whatever those projects are, nobody knows. But there’s riffs involved. Some of the riffs are, like, really heavy and tasty and I really like ’em. I’m the metalhead in the band, so when we get some real heavy stuff, I’m, like, ‘Oh, yeah, I like that. It’s cool.’
