The record
Title: Mastodon - Leviathan
Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 2004, Progressive Metal, Sludge Metal Stoner Metal, Atlanta, Georgia 10/26
Condition: New (BC) | Members: Mastodon (N/A) | Producer: Matt Bayles
Cultural Facts:
- Chance Meeting: Mastodon essentially came together after its future members crossed paths at a High on Fire show in Atlanta. Bill Kelliher and Brann Dailor had recently relocated, met Troy Sanders and Brent Hinds, and within weeks the musicians who barely knew one another were building a band together.
- The White Whale: Leviathan is built around Herman Melville's Moby-Dick, with Captain Ahab's obsession becoming a metaphor for chasing something so relentlessly that it begins destroying you. The idea was bizarre enough for a metal record that the band knew making an entire concept album about a 19th-century novel was a genuine gamble.
- Captain Ahab Himself: Neil Fallon of Clutch appears on “Blood and Thunder,” effectively stepping into the role of Captain Ahab for one of Mastodon's defining songs. A friend from another heavy underground band ended up delivering the album's most famous command: “White whale, holy grail.”

This place is a little tucked away but easy to find. Though it’s not a big shop, it has a great selection of records at great prices! The guy who helped me out at the counter was friendly and really helpful! If I were in the area again, I would definitely go back.

Power plant records is the best! Great selection of vinyl, the owner and staff are super cool and one of the best things about them are the local shows they put on at Stuft Pizza to support local punk bands like Repeater and Simulator (aka Current Location).
