Is Empire of Sand any good?
No
It's Mastodon.
I think it's alright. I kind of liked The Hunter also so just FYI.

It's pretty good, "Steambreather" and "Jaguar God" are both fantastic but the rest is kinda samey. And "Show Yourself" is probably the worst thing they've done.

First half is like alt rock without any creativity, second half is typical Mastodon, but it's done in less interesting way, then the previous albums.
