Leventhian is really a work of art to me. It was a bit different but ended up blowing me away. Mastodon never really were just another metal band but something about this album really establishes their sound and gives their music the distinction it needed and deserved. 9/10
The Oncoming Storm was a little bit bleh for me - if you know what I mean. They sound a little bit too proccesed this time around. The music is decent but nothing establishes a difference between TOS is the production - the breakdowns are boring and the music is too predictable. It's like listening to Chimaira's THe Impossiblity of Reason. 4/10
The End Of Heartache is awful in all respects. The music would be alright if the lead singer didn't ruin every song with his voice...they should've recorded their cd with Unearth, pressed them both onto the same cd and called it a day - or the end of their careers for this matter. 3/10
I have yet to hear Ashes of The Wake and I won't hear it until this monday when I get a free copy and their show. The music could be terrible and I'd still enjoy the show.
What about The Dillinger Escape Plan's album "Miss Machine", Bloodbath's "Nightmares Made Flesh" or Arsis' "A Celebration Of Guilt". The last 2 are very death metal but I suggest you download them if you haven't heard them.
Edit: Hey Kiwiman, nice signature.
