Mastodon Chat To I Like Music

ILM: As well as collaborations with producers, you've worked with a lot of artists. Particularly on Blood Mountain, which saw collaborations with Scott Kelly (Neurosis), Josh Homme (Queens of The Stone Age) and Cedric Bixler-Zavala (The Mars Volta). What have been the most memorable or exciting collaborations for you?

Brann: It is always fun to work with Scott. He was one of the first people we asked to sing on a record, him and Neil Fallon from Clutch. It's fun to have a voice that you admire and is familiar to you from music you've listened to for years and years become part of your song! It's born out of a deep admiration for musical heroes. We've also been able to become really good friends with all these people as well. We admire each others music. I don't think I could point to one collaboration and compare it to another one. But, I will say that Scott is an old and dear friend of mine. My friendship with Scott is probably deeper than anyone else we've ever collaborated with. If we can get him in and involved in something then it means a lot to me and everybody in the band. If there wasn't Neurosis then there wouldn't be a Mastodon.
