I've seen the "Is Mastodon prog?" thread here before but that was before the release of their latest offering 'Blood Mountain'.

If the scope and style of this release doesn't get them on the progarchives then nothing will.  If Death can get a mention then I don't see how Mastodon 'doesn't' fit into the prog metal scene.
Even if you don't agree get in their new one as it is awesome!
Can't think of anything cool at the moment ...

It's still a very Metal release.  I don't even see it as Prog Metal really.  More like hardcore-meets-classic-rockmeets-chunkythrashriffs-meets-Primusweirdness, while sounding not at all like any of those things at once.  The one thing I like about it is the short song lengths, very non-Prog.  A  good release from a good band.
