“I always had to think, ‘Is Brent gonna like this?’ Pretty soon, he didn’t like anything that we would come up with”: Bill Kelliher on his difficult songwriting sessions with Brent Hinds

Bill Kelliher has looked back on his songwriting partnership with the late Brent Hinds, which he says felt like a “competition”.

Hinds’ exit from Mastodon in March last year sent shockwaves through the fanbase. His tragic death several months did the same. The band has since released their first record following his death, Marrow Deep.
