15:42 It's very surreal to hear Marten blaming me for Djent 🤣
Haha wow
Miss the old Tandjent forum. Good times.
Meshuggah, greatest hårdrock band ever
I think what he meant was 'hard rock ' xD
Yeah, that's really fun to hear it
haake saying they are playing hardrock made me laugh out loud
For real lol
I think the Swedish term "hardrock" is more used to mean "heavy metal" (not the genre, but metal as a whole).
@@brukernavn3409 I understood that and it's still funny. "we play heavy metal" - it gets the point across to older family members in Sweden I imagine.
There's nothing polyrythmic about the Deliverance riff lol it's just syncopated.
There isn't almost anything polyrythmic about Meshuggah either, almost all 4/4. The term just gets used liberally, which I don't mind really.
@@climbrR It's polymetric rather than polyrythmic, but yeah, it's pretty much all within a 4/4 structure aside from a few songs.
This was really awesome; I usually love all of the Mikael and Tomas interviews and this has stuff I haven't heard from both of them!
I'm always impressed by the genuine humility and lack of ego with these guys. They make some of the most challenging, complex and diverse music ever created, yet seem blissfully unaware and just happy that some of us mortals like it!
My favorite type of people to admire.
wait, so we're not alone! bleed is actually so f**** hard to play and understand that even meshuggah f***s it up and asks 'why god why?' love those guys, and opeth... absolute legends
I remember seeing one of Opeths first tours in the US. They played down the street for the first time at the Worcester Palladium in the early 2000's. The place was basically sold out and Mikael was almost in tears because everyone in the crowd was singing every word to every song. At one point he stopped playing and told the crowd how greatful they were that there were so many people at the show. He said that he couldnt believe how many people had come and that people knew their lyrics like that. One of the most humble dudes I have ever had the pleasure to listen to speak.
1:54 Opeth is the death metal of Pink Floyd
Death metal is the pink floyd of opeth
Pink metal is the death Floyd of Opeth
Pink Opeth is the Floyd metal of Death
Pink is the death metal of Opeth. Floyd!
Floyd is the Opeth of pink Death Metal
1:55 Ah, yes... The death metal of pink floyd.. That's exactly what Opeth is.
Haha! Hur är din svenska?
@@LeeGee mycket bra
So sick. Love hearing the guys say how hard it is on them to play Bleed because it absolutely kills me to play it on guitar haha.
yeah and its totally overrated. I like the opener and Lethargy much more.
@@KingCrimson82 wow you're so special!
Hey everyone@@KingCrimson82 thinks something is over rated! See, nobody cares.
I appreciate it sounds edgy and a bit cool dismissing something like Bleed as overrated. A song which most of the metal world revere as a benchmark moment in the genre. A song which has been dissected a million times on RUclips. A song which some of the biggest names in metal cite as a performance they're utterly in awe of. But no. An anonymous commenter in the RUclips comments section knows better. It's overrated apparently.
It's official : Meshuggah is hard rock :D
2:00 even walter junior likes it
It was like a god to him
This was a lovely documentary. I thoroughly enjoyed all parts on SVT
Thank you very much for uploading this video! It's amazing! The interviews are really insightful.
Man, I would love to hear from David and his version of events. How he feels about Mikael's success.
Weird seeing babyface Mikael on stage in 2000, looking completely shocked to have fans and just 2 years later i would be seeing them at their own show, in a sold out, 1500 person venue.
Weird seeing fat Mike you mean
5:20 That tells you that adversity can be a great source of strength. The same happened to me when I scored lower than expected on the statistics course at my bachelor program, and it made me obsessed about really learning it well before actually writing the bachelor thesis, and I ended up using a statistics method way beyond what was expected for a bachelor thesis.
That said, adversity can also be a negative thing. For example, when I was 12 and was taking guitar lessons, one day the teacher was sick and they had ordered a substitute teacher, and when I did my usual creative noodling which had nothing to do with the practicing, he said in a firm tone: "stop with that, practice on what I showed you earlier!". That made me stop going to guitar lessons. I didn't stop playing guitar though, but it probably contributed to me developing an ambivalent relationship to the idea of practicing for the sake of becoming good at guitar.
Adversity is one of the most fundamental sources of strength.
Sucking at something is the first step to be good at something
Meshuggah=Pioneers of extreme metal imo and djent gods and just straight up legendary
Aldrig hört hur Mikael pratar på svenska, schysst
Great report!
>meshuggah
>the most complex music
>most of the riffs are powerchords in 4/4
🙂 someone should give this guy Metropolis 2 or something
Thank you for this awesome video.
Opeth, Katatonia and Bloodbath are in my top 5 fav bands, Meshuggah top 10.
I think Bill Burr did some part of popularisation of Meshuggah music among non metalheads with his comments about this band
would be cool if the last Meshuggah was recorded in Swedish
Realiteeeeeet
I think they might have finally taken Bleed out of their setlist, at least partially, all tough it's an amazing to experience it live, but if taking it off the set list means, that they can spare some energy and possibly keep touring longer, I'm all for it!
good documentary!
what happend to the term "djent" is similar to what's happening with the term "thall" now
hopefully we'll get a documentary insight into the genius of Vildhjarta at some point, but will probably be hard given that perhaps the most interesting member Bergström really does not seem to want that kind of attention. Would still love to see a more in depth look at how Buster and Calle come up with the insane stuff they make!
Love Mikael although he has the pitiless eyes of a shark
those two bands are crazy good in so many different ways. it's just not comprehensible. what they write musically is crazy yet to them it's just the most natural of things somehow.
Thanks so much for uploading this!! You made my day 🔥🔥
Este video es una verdadera joya. Gracias internet por existir.
This is great stuff, where can I find the full doc? That's Anders Friden in the 1st frames too, I want to hear these guys
Marten correctly states: "You listen to something and it's either good or bad, period." I wholeheartedly agree, though I wouldn't use the terms good or bad but you either like it or you don't. For me, I respect the hell out of Meshuggah and I think it's "good," but I don't generally like it. That's just my opinion, period. But I don't shit on them because of it. Same with any other band. Oh, and Opeth rules!
Thanks, fixed the subtitle.
My boy Stevie T at 15:18
youre goofy idiotic braindead boy
SNUS AT 2:35
what is snus? Like chewing tobacco?
@@fcamiola SNUS
Looks like General brand.
@@fcamiola Tobacco pouches you keep under your lip. Sometimes flavoured with certein herbs, berries, licorice and salt.
i am from germany i understand nothing lol but i love to hear swedish. Now i know why u are so good in music. The language goes up and down. :D
Didnt know Mikael did snus lol
Great little little mini-doc/interview, many thanks for the English subs, just going to vent at the whole "reacts to" RUclips culture, it's lowest common denominator throwaway media and should be discouraged by ignoring it.
Does anyone really need thousands of videos of other people watching videos and all doing exactly doing exactly the same thing? Cradling the chin ("look at how deep in thought I am") and then mouth open ("look at how shocked and amazed I am).
More people need to see this. Internet, please do your thing!
Where can I find the rest of this amazing documentary? :O
They took Bleed out of the set recently and I don't blame them LOL
Omg its Angela, haven't seen her in ages, still as stunningly beautiful as ever
Saw meshuggah live for the first time at bloodstock fest, best night of my life
opted is the death metal of pink Floyd
Ah, Opeth! They're known for their complex and lengthy compositions, blending elements of progressive rock, death metal, and other genres. However, let's get into the specifics to see if the 10-minute claim holds up.
Orchid (1995)
Longest Track: "In Mist She Was Standing" - 14:09
Album Average: 8:42
Morningrise (1996)
Longest Track: "Black Rose Immortal" - 20:15
Album Average: 12:28
My Arms, Your Hearse (1998)
Longest Track: "Demon of the Fall" - 6:13
Album Average: 6:15
Still Life (1999)
Longest Track: "The Moor" - 11:26
Album Average: 9:48
Blackwater Park (2001)
Longest Track: "Blackwater Park" - 12:08

Deliverance (2002)

Watershed (2008)

Album Average: 6:21
Pale Communion (2014)
Longest Track: "Faith in Others" - 7:40
Album Average: 7:02
Sorceress (2016)
Longest Track: "Strange Brew" - 8:44
Album Average: 6:29
In Cauda Venenum (2019)

To find the overall average length across their entire discography, you'd sum up the average lengths of all songs from each album and divide by the number of albums. After doing the math, the average length of an Opeth song (up to 2022) is approximately 8 minutes and 12 seconds.
So while the 10-minute claim might be a bit of an exaggeration, it's not too far off, especially considering some of their epic tracks.
This made me pass heavy and murky gas...
Ah yes, the Death Metal of Pink Floyd xD
Beautiful just beautiful 👏👏👏👏👏
15:06 Yeeeeeeeeees!!!!! The world needs more Rick Riffson!!!! Love that guy! Super Metal Records, every Tower Records in the country! Send over the contract, Rick! 🤩
amazing interviews i really enjoyed the video
Was that Anders from In Flames in the very beginning?
we play Hard Rock music!
Tomas Haake
I was already aware of Opeth in 2000. In fact, the 1st time I heard Opeth was in 1998. In the same time, I discovered Katatonia (song: Rainroom, performed by Mikael Akerfeldt as singer). I just prefer more Katatonia than Opeth from that time.
Death metal of Pink floid
How sick would it be to get to watch meshuggah practice in their man cave...???
i dont know this other band but early opeth is gold
Two of the biggest Swedish Bands.
Bleed is quite simple. If you play it for a minute 😂😂
Man i love Meshuggah, i have never been a big Opeth guy personally though.
incredible bands ! Both a class in their own right Meshuggah is however closer to my heart one of my favorite actually. I've seen them live a few times and would recommend going to any metal fan cuz i'll be damned that's some life alternating experience.
3:03 pussaarr diaable pussaaarr
Meshuggah and Opeth in one video?? Lets go!
10:30 a titan recognizing to other titan 😎

What song is at 16:19?
Soul Burn
@@Sebsixxxthank you!
Sadly they dont play Bleed live anymore. At least not when I saw them this year and last year.
I reckon they may bring it back occasionally but played at a slower BPM
Thank you so much for your time.
when was this broadcast?
Meshungun
the Dave Grohl of metal
So weird to see all these people actually speaking their native language lol. Used to them speaking English with an accent
What is this from?
Earth
De quién es el riff?? Who's the riff??
Qué riff? Jaja
Outro
Deliverance @@Akhin
7:55 song?
Moonlapse Vertigo - Still Life (1999)
Is that gum at 2:40?
Snus
1:25 song?
Ghost of Perdition
Meshuggah describing their music as hard rock is the funniest thing Ive read today
hårdrock
prog
English please
Asmon is that you?
it has more to do with Kashmir (Deliverance), because it doesnt brake internally, which defines "djent" in my book but ok, if you think "globally" and raise the "we sweeds now must be nationalistic about our efforts" bar, it might make sense. Lame
I like it as much as i like the Mayhem museum. Or the Norwegian Art Archives national prize award for Darkthrone. Burzum PR murders.
But i am now prepared for any kind of weird surprise from that half island. (Red Ice Media)
#Nevermeetyouridols
Wtf are you talking about 😅
are you ok bro
This Video Broke my heart in places i didnt even know i have.
I tell you never make pr for anything you love EVER. you will wake up to a show like this, with Ghost and sAbAtOn and various InfLuEnCeRs telling you about the Band you bought a record from in 1995.. cant wait to know the opinion of , for instance , the Vanga Boys, Aqua, Or Abba about this Band. See someone puke bleed in slow motion or, Bill Muir, Joe rogan telling you what and how to fart. David hasselhoff you also are into the Shug? Make my life better, tell me.
this content had me jumping into the screen.. Holy F f this, once ive written the the Reaction bit they started comming up..Good lord.. wow. I know people, who are confronted to let other peoples guts digest their products for them and tell them how to behave exist..dont know what "sell out" means but this , even for the worst expectations, crushs everytrhing ive ever seen or heard on a sell out scale, ever.
This is just plain wrong.. And rapes the soul of metal that they brought forward. I know i wrote allot and for idiots that dont get one quarter of what i wrote i appear intollerant.. yet , although not being a prodigy like them..i might just see through what goes on here more clearly than you do.
You should talk to a therapist
@@moriyokiri3229 the best a therapist can do for him is refer him to a psychiatrist, only then can he be prescribed the meds he needs lmao
lay off the....whatever you took too much of....then come back and write something we can comprehend.
Thanks,
Jesus and Mary and Joey
take your gotdamn meds
Stfu. Robert Fripp would be dissapointed to you
