Most of the songs were written long before the album was recorded |
Most of the songs were written long before the album was recorded. "Workhorse" was premiered live in Memphis in July 2001. "Trampled Under Hoof", "Trilobite", "Where Strides the Behemoth", "Crusher Destroyer" and "Mother Puncher" were all played on a [[WFMU]] radio show on August 7, 2001, and "Trainwreck" was written while [[Eric Saner]] was still in the band. |

|
At the beginning of "Crusher Destroyer" is the roar of the [[Tyrannosaurus|''Tyrannosaurus rex'']] from the film ''[[Jurassic Park (film)|Jurassic Park]]'' with Lex saying her brother's name, "Timmy!", as they get attacked in the jeep. |

<blockquote>"My sister committed suicide when I was 15 (she was 14)...I was never able to put that stuff anywhere. All that pain I was carrying inside. The pain of losing her had always been there. With [[Today Is the Day]], there was a lot of anger involved. After that, I didn't want to be angry. When I start playing in Mastodon and moved to Atlanta, there was a big personal healing. Mastodon had a lot to do with that. That's one of the main reasons that the album is titled Remission. Remission means forgiveness and healing. Mastodon helped me do that: Forgive a lot of things that happened in my life."<ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.lollipop.com/article.php3?content=issue66/f-mastodon.html | title = An Interview with drummer Brann Dailor | access-date = 13 October 2009}}</ref></blockquote> |
