When has Mastodon released a video in recent years that wasn't insanely weird? It's been a while, and the video for"Steambreather" sure as hell does nothing to break that streak. The video features a dude trying to smoke a hot dog, some bad wigs, a Batman-looking dude, and some skateboarding! Among lots of other weird stuff.
Maybe this is all to take our minds off the fact that Mastodon seemingly has a second record called Cold Dark Place coming this September, and we know damn near nothing about it.
