Its very much "new" Mastodon, but it doesn't suck.
Can't say that I'll ever go out of my way to listen to it again, but I dig it. Fits the theme of the show while still sounding like Mastodon. I can't help but think that I'd rather have heard The Sword doing something similar though.

Are we really debating this shit?
Summit: first 3-4 Mastodon albums are incredible, check em out. Go from there if you want more.
GoT is pretty fucking hard to stomach until about the third or fourth episode of the first season. Then you are faced with the decision of whether or not to let the ridiculous fantasy tropes through to the goals and revel in the geekgasm, or say no to zombie/dragon/magic/death-by-winter/comet wrought apocalypse.
As someone that has read the books, read them if you want to nerd right the fuck out, but to be honest the writing on the show is better and while I'm not a fan of the extent of streamlining they've undertaken (although, I certainly agree, necessary for the tv format) it keeps moving at a breakneck speed and doesn't slow down to establish new chapters as much as Walking Dead does (not that I mind that either, I don't get why people hate on a show when they stop for one episode to unpack some heavy shit and then set up for the next round of brutality).
My 2c.
This. GoT is all kinds of awesome, regardless of if you choose the show or the books. The first couple of episodes were tough for me since there is a lot of characters to suss out, but after that it seems like people love it or hate it. And, depending on who you ask, the first 3-4 Mastodon albums are stupid good.

I dig Zeppelin. My mom was into them, and my dad was really into Cream. I've got a very large soft spot for a lot of classic rock.

I'm so glad we all concur about KISS.

No one is allowed to hate Cream, by the way. Cream is beyond reproach.

How could you? Cream, to me, helped define psychedelic rock.

Cream is when Eric Clapton played an Sg and had awesome tone. Then he started playing Strats and went all blues lawyer tone.

Yeah I forgot about Layla. I stand corrected. Not really hating on Strats because Jimi played a Strat and his tone was awesome. It's just that Blues lawyer Strat tone than shits me. I would beat John Mayer to death with his Strat if I could.

Truth^ there is some great blues music but that's not it. Give me blues that's raw and gritty. Like a cheese grater to the balls gritty.

Kiss = dried up shit thats been sitting in the sun for a week with flies and maggots all over it
Cream = vanilla custard on warm apple pie
SRV = stale bread, edible, but crumbles and makes you cough as the crumb powder gets stuck in your throat.

This shit happening in here is priceless.
I'm on my phone, so I can't multi quote, but:
I like Kiss. I don't respect Kiss, I put it on when I'm already too drunk and doing dumb shit like dancing and singing along with the stereo.
Big Dumb Fun.
Fuck Clapton.
But Cream are alright.
SRV is just boring.
Daz those were adorable and hilarious.
Also yay to Sam and to DoS!
So, if not Hawkwind sounds then Church of Misery?
Also: Lemmy Hawkwind>Other Hawkwind
CofM>Boris (I'm just shit stirring now, I'm gonna try and make Boris when they come down).

I think this just about says it all.
Clapton was my first rock show back in 1980. I liked it at the time but I can only imagine how boring it was. Last show before he quit the tour to kick heroin.
I walked out of a Stevie Ray Vaughan show because I was so bored.
Those two are really the dregs of popular music, and I'm part blues lawyer, so if anyone should be giving them a pass, it would be me. But I hate that beer commercial dreck.
Cream was pretty good, but compared to the Yardbirds or Hendrix, just OK.

Comparing anyone to Jimi is unfair to the second party (also who the fuck says "jimi" like they knew him, I just didn't want to repeat "Hendrix")
Pope -- Church of Misery is closer, but I'm in the midst of adding tags for what I have now and I just keep thinking of UVB-76 and HAARP riding the 52 hertz whale into an undersea cavern. shit like that.
