Yesterday was a pretty damn good day for Mastodon. Not only did their new album The Hunter crack the top 10 (their highest ranking debut to date), but the band also performed on The Late Show with David Letterman last night (October 5). This marks the second time Mastodon have played on the show, and as Letterman himself said during his introduction of the band, “The response was so tremendous, we said ‘by God, we’re going to have them back.’” After seeing them performing “Curl Of The Burl” last night on the show, it’s safe to say that this won’t be the last time Mastodon is on the show (even if Brent’s tattoo did scare Letterman the first time around).

You can watch Mastodon performing “Curl Of The Burl” on last night’s The Late Show in the video above.
