Mastodon and Gibby Haynes

All summer long, i have been excitedly listening to each weekly release from Adult Swim's summer singles series, all the while anxiously awaiting the reported Mastodon/Gibby Haynes (Butthole Surfers) collaboration.  And now my wait is over.  "Atlanta" sounds about what you expect a Mastodon/Gibby Haynes jam to sound like...hyper, frenetic, screeching magic.  Listen below and download it on Monday.  Hooray!
