Mastodon has released the video for "The Motherload," taken from the band's most recent effort, Once More 'Round The Sun. Responding to criticism that the clip is sexist, drummer Brann Dailor told Pitchfork that it was not to be taken so seriously:

I don't know, I just don't see the sexism in it. I know there's half-naked women that are shaking their butts. For some people it's titillating, but for me it just looked amazing. I thought the girls were awesome and talented, and I thought it was amazing to watch. I love when it turns into that kaleidoscope effect thing; it brings the video to a whole new level. But it's gotten people talking obviously, you know. I figured that would happen, you know what I mean. I knew there was going to be some negativity. But we do that; we're that kind of band. It hadn't been done before, and we were kind of looking for something that hadn't been done before because it's hard to come by these days.
