Brann Dailor Reflects on Brent Hinds and Mastodon’s New Album

Mastodon is gearing up for the release of their highly anticipated ninth studio album, Marrow Deep, set to drop on August 28, 2026. This marks a significant moment for the band as it is their first album without the late guitarist Brent Hinds, who tragically passed away in March 2025.

In a recent interview with Metal Injection, drummer Brann Dailor shared his thoughts on how Hinds might have reacted to the new material. Dailor humorously speculated that while Hinds may not have been a fan of the heavier aspects of the album, he would likely appreciate some elements of it. Dailor emphasized the emotional weight of the record, stating that it channels their profound grief and serves as a tribute to Hinds.

The album’s first single, “Your Ghost Again,” released in June, touches on the feelings of loss and nostalgia that come with Hinds’ absence. Dailor expressed hope that the album resonates with fans who are also grieving.

Mastodon will be hitting the road for their North American Poisonous Weapons Tour, kicking off in Orlando, Florida, on September 16, 2026, and wrapping up in Dallas, Texas, on October 24. The tour will feature support from Alcest and Deafheaven, promising an unforgettable experience for rock fans.
