Did someone tell the dudes in MASTODON that they couldn't pull in a crowd unless they brought a few similarly sick bands along with them? Whatever the case, stoner delight KYLESA, experimetalists (sic) INTRONAUT and the mighty MASTODON all risk getting blown out of the water by each other on their just-announced US tour, which indicates that 2009 just might live up to its first two months of awesome shows after all.
