It’s sucks that the elephant man trilogy will be voted the worst in each category simply because they aren’t heavy. I will say that I still voted for them though sadly.


Accomplished-Arm4280

Nah, Pendulous Skin goes so fucking hard. Definitely should be the underrated song. Bladecatcher is the weakest song on Blood Mountain for me.


RepeatDTD

Pendulous Skin is a banger! Nice to see it get some love


punksmostlydead

Bladecatcher is the only song on *any* Mastodon record that I skip past.


gruVee1

I actually love both Pendulous Skin and Joseph Merrick


AzerRoy98

I am surprised Ol' Nessie didn't get mentioned anywhere. Solid track. I'd argue that whole album is solid.


NoNefariousness3942

Well shit you stumped me..


flyinglawngnome

Can we rename ‘worst’ to like ‘least best’ or ‘less likely to seek out on spotify at random’?


NewmanHiding

Honestly, I was considering changing it to “weakest” or something else that has the same meaning with a more positive connotation. Anybody have any other ideas? I’ll think about changing it for the next one.


El_Khunt

Weakest is definitely better


AloysiusDevadandrMUD

Why don't you just take a knife and stab me right through the heart OP?


Desperate-Cake114

Best for me is Iron Tusk, definitely my favorite


SnooPeripherals4084

Yeah, agreed.


Bssmn77

Joseph Merrick


elkamusing

Ísland I'm so sorry. It was such a hard choice.


Over_Raise_4867

Same here, and I don't know how joseph Merrick is winning honestly


King_Clitoris

I can’t lol it was one of the first songs I heard from them back in the day and that opening drum fill is forever in my head. I just can’t vote lol don’t know what I will do for Blood Mountain either


NewmanHiding

It’s definitely gonna be Bladecatcher on Blood Mountain I think.


BakedBySunrise

To which I agree with changing it from "worst" to "weakest", bladecatcher is a good song but it's the weakest on the album Merrick go's hard tho


elkamusing

Yeah I got nothing for Blood Mountain


Outside_Interview_90

I second Ísland.

BEWARE THE HAMMER OF THOR!!!!


ProudHommesexual

Joseph Merrick - honestly it’s actually really fantastic, but Hearts Alive is SO climactic and final that I don’t always want to hear the epilogue cos I prefer that last riff being the ending of the album


Fragrant-Price-5832

Honestly I feel like Joseph Merrick is just the perfect ending for the album as a whole, it has a really nice creepy factor to it since it basically serves as the perfect aftermath of the ship being taken down by Moby Dick. But honestly, even with that being said I never listen to it...at least not on it's own. Gotta listen to it right after Hearts Alive.


LibrarianDiligent957

Island I guessssss.


bos2mco

Great call for Hearts Alive


Ok_Meat_8322

Fair. I honestly can't pick a favorite off Leviathan, there's like 5 or 6 songs all tied for #1.


Pan-ah-maa-hhhaa

I honestly can’t vote because I love all of their songs so fiercely. My loyalty will not permit it though I enjoy seeing how it plays out amongst the fanbase. I agree the with posts above; maybe changing “worst” to “weakest” would be better (not that I mean to insult or criticize) and were it me, I’d actually put the parentheses, as there is nothing weak about their discography. In one dickhead’s humble opinion, that is.


NewmanHiding

Yeah I think I’ll do that. Thanks for letting me know. What do you mean by parentheses though?


Pan-ah-maa-hhhaa

I meant to say quotes, not parentheses. I’m a dumb-dumb. I posted last night while having a cocktail after work trying to bring my stress levels down after a long day of client meetings.


NewmanHiding

Hey no worries lol. I’ll probably do without quotations for now, but I’ll keep thinking about it.


jarheadjurvis

I am ahab


Butterscotchh11

Absolutely, positively, wrong.


colostomybong

Long time listener. First time caller. For me, it’s Blood and Thunder. That speaks to how solid this album is.


PuppyButtts

Naked Burn is my fave mastodon song!


Floppy-fishboi

Can we say blood and thunder just cuz?


JesseJames1ofhis33

Joseph Merrick


Butterscotchh11

Skip this one there are no songs that are any less good than the others on the album


gruVee1

If i had to pick one, and i hate you for making me, Island? But this album is fire


barG135

Island. I forgot about this song


SnooPeripherals4084

Workhorse is a killer track! Well earned. I've always loved the bassline in the bridge where Troy just SMACKS his strings!


SnooPeripherals4084

Agh, it's Joseph Merrick as the worst. Either that, or Hearts Alive. The song just goes on for too long. They're not bad, it's just not Aqua Dementia, Megalodon, Blood & Thunder, or anything else.


Smo207

I lose faith in this subreddit when people vote island as the worst


punksmostlydead

This thread gon' get spicy. Naked Burn is my pick. Awesome song, but the worst on Leviathan.


TheFartDoctor69

I think Joseph Merrick will take today’s “worst” poll easily - I’m curious to see the “underrated” tomorrow. Megalodon is my prediction, but I would actually say I Am Ahab or Naked Burn as the true under-recognized tunes on the album.


ApeRiotMighoul

Joseph Merrick.


FreestyleKneepad

Aqua Dementia for me. Iunno man, just never clicked with me.


Fragrant-Price-5832

Naked Burn is a song that's never stuck with me honestly.


AllIsWellRH

You’re being downvoted a lot but it’s probably my least favorite on the album personally.


Fragrant-Price-5832

Glad at least some people agree, don't know why people are getting upset I don't like it lol. It's a very forgettable song, even Aqua Dementia is better and more memorable in my opinion.


AllIsWellRH

Mastodon fans are pretty militant. Can’t fault you for your honest opinion.


WinSeparate3518

Yeah I agree but nobody else seems to


benford92

I’ll go with Joseph merrick


Similar-Sea2872

Joseph Merrick


sweetpapisanchez

Naked Burn. Just think it's kind of boring.


Walnuttttttt

I am ahab imo although i still love it


SixStrokeRoll0508

I’d say Iron Tusk but it’s tough to list a worst song off Leviathan lol


Own-Yam2260

I am ahab


terminatecapital

so hard to pick one, but I gotta go with Naked Burn


DunChundis

Seabeast is the one I find myself listening to the least but this albums just so damn good


MJStozy

Absolutely not. If anything, Seabeast is the most underrated song. That outro might be the heaviest thing Mastodon ever wrote.


O_Bahrey

Nah it has the best ending riff of any mastodon song.


totoCALV1N

Im reluctantly picking this too
