The booklet for the Japanese pressing is slightly different to the domestic release. Another good reason to buy this version if your a bit of a Mastonerd like me and must own everything the band have done.		Released in 2002 in Japan on Relapse Records / Ritual Records, this version comes complete with OBI strip and special insert with lyrics printed in Japanese and also a band biography. The Lifesblood tracks are also featured on the disc as Japanese pressings always give you that bit extra! The version that was released in November 2005 contains the full album plus bonus track "Emerald" + different OBI strip than the 2002 version.

The Call of the Mastodon, a collection of Mastodon's first-ever forays into the recording studio, exposes the humble beginnings of hard rock's heaviest hitters. The nine tracks laid to tape here, the first the fledgling quartet had ever written, document a band finding its own voice and place in the musical world. Remixed and remastered by original producer Matt Washburn, and repackaged by the band's longtime artist Paul Romano, The Call of the Mastodon is a vital piece of heavy metal history and the crucial starting point in the still burgeoning Mastodon legacy.

Released in Japan on Relapse Records this version comes complete with OBI strip and special insert with lyrics printed in Japanese and a bonus live track of Where Strides The Behemoth is uncreditted to where is was recorded but the quality of the recording is excellent.
