Every living creature must face the will and judgment of time. Ancient
Greeks personified time in the form of the titan Kronos, father of Zeus,
and ancient Egyptians celebrated Heh as an abstraction of endless
years. Famously, William Shakespeare lamented humanity's immutable fate
as "time's subjects" in Henry IV. Mastodon ponders the nature of time on
their eighth album Emperor of Sand. Threading together the myth of a
man sentenced to death in a majestically malevolent desert, the Atlanta
quartet conjures the grains of a musical and lyrical odyssey slipping
quickly through a cosmic hourglass. Emperor of Sand is pressed on full
color picture disc vinyl for Record Store Day 2018.
