Mastodon, BTBAM, Baroness, and Valient Thorr - Spring 2010 U.S. Tour Announced
Well, this is a nice little tour isn't it? Just yesterday I was looking for dates for Mastodon and/or Baroness and found nothing. Then today, courtesy of MetalSucks, I see this tour is announced... pretty fuckin sweet.
I've never seen Baroness live but i have heard great things from multiple sources. I am definitely a fan of Baroness, however, I feel like they are getting a shitload of credit and I'm not too sure they deserve all of it. I mean, yea they are good, they're real good, but not album of the year (Blue Record, 2009) as some people have stated (and by some I mean Decibel magazine). BTBM is very very highly regarded in the metal music 'scene', which also makes me scratch my head a little bit. And i've never heard Valient Thorr but I assure you that will change in the next 30 minutes or so.
And Mastodon. Oh Mastodon. The last time I saw you, you sucked big fat sausage. I mean, it was terrible. The time before that was probably one of the top 10 shows I've ever been to. So I have no idea what to expect. There is a chance it will be good because when they play in relatively small venues they tend to kick serious ass, but in larger venues the sound is horrible. I'm going to go to the show in Hartford, CT and the venue they're playing has been pretty consistent over the years, so lets just hope the 'Don's sound guy don't fuck it up.
