Mastodon‘s track “Island” from their 2004 release “Leviathan” will appear in the new Disney–Pixar film, “Monsters University“. According to the film’s director Dan Scanlon:
“There is a great moment in ‘Monsters University’ when we thought it would be funny if the tunes were some of the most intense heavy metal imaginable. Mastodon was the obvious choice. They show off an unexpected monstrous side for one of our great new characters.”
Despite being featured in the film, the song does not appear on the official soundtrack. The movie will open in theaters on June 21st.
