Initial Thoughts on Crack the Skye

Seth alerted me this morning that Crack the Skye had made its way on to the Internets. He also gave me the heads up that - despite their protestations to the contrary - the album has more of a commercial feel. With that in mind, I turned on the first track, "Oblivion," and while I enjoyed it, I have to ask: when did Mastodon become Stone Temple Pilots?
