Concept? Who cares about a concept (except conceptualists, and who cares about them?). I don't even understand most of the lyrics. But this is a kickanus progrock recording. If you don't like it, don't stay, run away. 
I can have double standards, and you can't

This album probably has the worst concept anyone has ever conceived for an album.

The music is ok, but disappointing compared to Leviathan (my only other exposure to the band).

I would really love to like this band, the cover-works are SO DAMN GOOD!!!!!

But the music fails to grab me at all....

Got it today in the mail (cd/dvd edition).
Already heard it on Myspace and sounded good.

You can actually listen to the whole album in their Myspace site.

It seems they have gone softer than their last albums...

Good god I love Mastodon, I cant wait for this.
Just a shame they didn't play any new material when They played in Wolverhampton a few weeks ago.
Hell of a band, this album will doubtlessly be excellent.
Let the maps of war be drawn !

Same here Clap

I can't remember how long it was that i read a bulletin on their Myspace about them writing new music. I'm glad to see we'll finally be hearing some new goodness soon.

Thanks for the update sean!

Definitely good news. Something to look forward to. Mastodon not only has not disappointed us yet, but they keep getting better.

Is it the "wind album"?
