Actually, the T-rex roar might fit in with the general revenge theme, since that roar is one of the main parts of a scene in which the T-rex claims a revenge of sorts upon what it probably believes are its captors |

Seems like a general revenge song to me. The literal sense of course being the bull and the matador, but everyone has their own matador, someone or something stabbing at them constantly, and this is about getting revenge on that someone or something. |

Drums are good all through the album, but best on this and Hearts Alive.
The song is about whaling, more specifically the messy killing bit. |

Mastodon are a truly awesome band. Any bunch of guys brave enough to do a concept album (on what many consider to be the greatest American novel ever written) as their second album, and pull it off pretty much perfectly, demand some respect.
Blood & Thunder is a summarising introduction to the story of Moby Dick. It focuses pretty much entirely on captain Ahab, describing his paranoia, his ever imminent descent into madness, and his desire for revenge. The entire theme of the book is fantastically contracted into four words: white whale, holy grail. Pure genius... |
