Last year, longtime Mastodon member Brent Hinds died in a sudden and tragic motorcycle accident, just a few months after he split with the band in acrimonious fashion. On Tuesday, Mastodon shared "Your Ghost Again," a colossal new song about the losses of both Hinds and drummer Brann Dailor's mother. On Wednesday, they played it live for the first time.
Wednesday's Mastodon show was with Loathe at Prague's O2 Universum. Before they played "Your Ghost Again," singer/bassist Troy Sanders mentioned that they'll have a new album out later this year and that "Your Ghost Again" is the first song that they've ever made without Hinds. They dedicated it to Hinds' memory: "We miss him, and we love him, also." Watch a fan video below.
