Mastodon (band) band for personal reasons after just a couple of months. After recording a four-song demo and a 7-inch picture disc through Reptilian Records, Mastodon landed a record deal with Relapse Records in 2001. Mastodon released the EP "Lifesblood" in 2001, and its first full-length album, "Remission", in 2002, with the singles "March of the Fire Ants" and "Crusher/Destroyer" (which was also featured on "Tony Hawk's Underground"). On each of Mastodon's first three full-length albums the last track was an instrumental composition with a title that related to the Elephant Man. The band's second full-length album, "Leviathan", was released in 2004.
Perry Mastodon Perry Mastodon Perry Mastodon (sometimes called "Perry, the Mastodon") is the name for some mastodon skeletal remains that were discovered along Riford Road in Glen Ellyn, Illinois. The remains were found on the property of Judge Joseph Sam Perry and Mrs. Nelle Perry on October 16, 1963, thus inspiring naming the remains after them. The remains can be seen in a recreated state on the campus of Wheaton College in Wheaton, Illinois at the science building, where the Geology Department also is housed. The mastodon inspired some Wheaton College alumni to submit "Mastodons" as a suggestion for the school's mascot
