Looks like 2018 is MASTODON‘s glory year! Having won the coveted Grammy Award for “Best Metal Performance”, it seems the band is having a lot of fun already. MASTODON fans are still reeling from the exuberance of the Grammy win, and they have one more reason to celebrate or look forward to. Especially the US fans. Well, MASTODON along with fellow rockers PRIMUS have joined forces for a massive 45 date United States tour, starting this summer on the May 6th, at Morrison, CO and extending up to Jul 7th, at Phoenix, AZ.
This mega tour will also see JJUUJJUU and ALL THEM WITCHES provide support on respective, select dates. Both of these bands will be out on the road doing a cross country tour in support and promotion of their latest studio albums. 2017 saw MASTODON and PRIMUS release both their latest albums titled, ‘Emperor Of Sand‘ and ‘The Desaturating Seven‘ respectively. MASTODON‘s album received lots of five star ratings and many called it the album of the year and their best effort since ‘Crack The Skye‘. PRIMUS‘ latest album, ‘The Desaturating Seven‘ is an album that draws inspiration from the Italian author Ul de Rico’s 1978 children’s book, ‘The Rainbow Goblins‘.
