Call of the Mastodon is a compilation of early songs from the metal band Mastodon. It was released on February 7, 2006, by Relapse Records.

Contents

It contains alternate re-ordered versions of all the songs from their first EP Lifesblood, as well as three tracks from their 7" self-titled vinyl released in 2000 and a bonus song, "Call of the Mastodon", which has only appeared on the "9 Song Demo", which originally contained vocals by their previous vocalist Eric Saner.

This was their final release on Relapse; they subsequently signed to Warner Music.

On the documentary of the making of Crack the Skye, the band stated that "Call of the Mastodon" is their third studio album, because it sounds different from their previous albums Remission and Leviathan.
