Emperor Of Sand finds Mastodon returning to a deeply imaginative and complex conceptual storyline that ponders the nature of time. Threading together the myth of a man sentenced to death in a majestically malevolent desert, the band conjures the grains of a musical and lyrical odyssey slipping quickly through a cosmic hourglass. \u201cEmperor of Sand is like the grim reaper,\u201d says drummer\/vocalist Brann Dailor. \u201cSand represents time. If you or anyone you know has ever received a terminal diagnosis, the first thought is about time. Invariably, you ask, \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcHow much time is left?’\u201d
\u201cWe\u2019re reflecting on mortality,\u201d adds bassist\/vocalist Troy Sanders. \u201cTo that end, the album<\/a> ties into our entire discography. It\u2019s 17 years in the making, but it\u2019s also a direct reaction to the last two years. We tend to draw inspiration from very real things in our lives.\u201d
Emperor Of Sand was recorded at The Quarry Recording Studio in Kennesaw, just outside Mastodon\u2019s hometown of Atlanta, with producer Brendan O\u2019Brien (Pearl Jam, Neil Young, AC\/DC, Rage Against The Machine), who first worked with Mastodon on their seminal 2009 album Crack The Skye.<\/p>\n
