Pre-orders of the Royal Edition are available right now through Mastodonrocks.com only and has begin shipping on December 15, 2009.
Supporting act Totimoshi, the gritty and raw Los Angeles by-the-way-of Oakland, CA band, are continuing to support of their 2008 album, “Milagrosa,” which received high marks all around from StonerRock.com to Pitchfork. Having pointed to their Latin heritage as playing a key role in the shaping of their sound, Totimoshi turn the two disparate parts of their personality into music that is undeniably their own. Even the band’s name is a reflection of that cultural mash-up . That merging of backgrounds-Tony, the son of migrant farm workers and bass player Meg Castellanos’ Cuban roots-give the couple’s sound a flavor that’s unique in the world of modern heavy music.
