Mastodon has just unveiled their video for 'Curl of the Burl.' Directed by Roboshobo (Metallica, The Donnas), the clip's concept was dreamed up by drummer Brann Dailor.

Next week Mastodon will release 'The Hunter,' the Atlanta band's fifth studio album. Produced by Mike Elizondo (Fiona Apple, Dr. Dre), it was described by Dailor to Noisecreep as, "a really super-heavy Led Zeppelin or something." In the same interview, the drummer said the new material was written in a more collaborative spirit than some of their previous work. "I think it's a little more collaborative, with everyone chipping in. Brent has a lot of great stuff. [Guitarist] Bill [Kelliher]'s got a lot of cool riffs, too. There are so many, it's hard to know which ones we're gonna use. But we go in and jam all the time and record stuff. Then we sort it out later."
