Mastodon released Emperor of Sand this past Friday via Reprise Records. The album is based on the band losing family and friends over the years, and battling cancer, taking the listener on an emotional journey leaving all with little to no hope. However, “Show Yourself” is the poppiest track on the album, showing pep and optimism. We enjoyed their music video for it, and last night Mastodon performed this tune, as well as the album’s “Andromeda” and “Steambreather” and older tracks “Circle of Cysquatch” and “Mother Puncher” on Jimmy Kimmel Live. Props to Brann Dailor, who in addition to singing half of “Show Yoursel” is wearing a dope silk screened shirt in loving memory of Harambe.
