Crack the Skye is the fourth studio album by American heavy metal band Mastodon, released on March 24, 2009, through Reprise, Sire and Relapse Records.[7][8] The album debuted at number 11 on the Billboard 200, selling 41,000 copies in its first week.[9] In Australia, the album debuted at number 19.[10] It had sold 200,000 copies in the US as of September 2010, making it one of their highest-selling albums to date.[11]
Drummer Brann Dailor described the album as more "focused" than its predecessor, Blood Mountain: "Maybe there was a deeper heart to this record that needed more exploring ... We got more involved with feeling the vibe of the record and everything feels more creepy and spaced out and something special is going on."[12] During the composition of the record, Brent Hinds listened to In the Court of the Crimson King by King Crimson every day as inspiration, while Dailor and Troy Sanders listened to Pink Floyd
