Mastodon has officially announced the release date for their upcoming album, set for April 12, 2024.

The album, titled 'The Lost City of Z', will be released through Nuclear Blast Records.

This marks the band's first new studio recording since 2021's 'The Wonder' and follows a period of intense creative development.

The announcement was made via the band's official website and social media channels.

'The Lost City of Z' is expected to feature a blend of heavy riffs, intricate song structures, and atmospheric soundscapes that reflect the band's signature style.

The album will be available in multiple formats including standard CD, vinyl, and digital download.

A full list of track titles will be revealed in early March.

The band has not confirmed any tour dates in connection with the release, though fans are encouraged to stay updated through official channels.

According to Nuclear Blast, the project was developed over a period of two years with contributions from all members.

The release will include a limited edition vinyl with a custom inner sleeve and artwork inspired by South American mythology.

The announcement comes as part of a broader rollout of new content from the band, which also includes a new music video for the track 'Eternal Flame' released last week.

No further details about the album's production or creative process have been disclosed at this time."
