Only seen them live once, but they were the tightest, well - "best sounding" metal, no, any band I've seen. I was astonished how good they sounded. I also got my ass kicked hard in the pit - I OWNED THAT PIT and I paid for it. Great gig.
When I saw Meshuggah live they opened up for Tool about 15 years ago. They had absolutely no stage effects. they came out with all the lights on (just white lights, no flashes) and played their entire set that way. It was amazing.
@@gabberpietor nah they dont, Thomas haake has said himself he doesnt even understand most tool songs he listens too. I'd say they are very comparable, but on the same playing field all together. In complexity alone, tool is much harder to follow than Meshuggah
It sounds like it could be the soundtrack of a movie like Dunkirk, it sounds what I feel like dive bomb planes coming in for the kill sound like. Bring the heavy
Not trying to stir the pot, but I'd have to disagree. Within The Ruins has some epically brutal breakdowns that out do Meshuggah. Also, Leprous-The Sky is Red. The last 3-4 minutes of that song is insane. Sure it may not have double bass blasting you in the gut, but the synergy of all the instruments in that crescendo make for one of the darkest and most intriguing breakdowns out there. I get being a fan and really feeling the music, but try not to hyperventilate over a small section of music that's found in a much larger ocean of heaviness.
I can't ever get enough of all three guitarists headbanging at the same time while playing on stage together. It's almost laughable, but it's so badass at the same time.
Ever since I saw them headbanging in live show, I don't know why whenever I see other musicians or cover artists headbanging, it gives me cringy feeling 🤣 It's like I'm used to these guys more now, but sad thing is, they stopped headbanging in live shows now. :/
Jens' performance in this song was WILD!!! That "VIOLAAAAAaaaaaate" always makes me squint my eyes like if i'm in pain, it's that intense!!! It's just unbelievable how incredible these guys are. Meshuggah is definitely the best and heaviest metal band on Earth.
Saw them two times live. Best performer ever, in metal industry. All is perfect in their live: sound, light, performance. Just perfect. Always. Amazing.
***** 1. I don't see how Meshuggah songs don't have harmony/melody/rhythm. Elaborate please? 2. Aside from that, having harmony and melody and rhythm is far from the definition of music in my opinion. I'd define music as any collection of sounds that the artist who made/arranged it would call music.
***** They have rhythm and melody; not a lot of melody, but it's still there. You can't disregard that. If you want to hear them play a very obvious harmony, listen to their song "Unanything". :) They play music for sure, man!
Every band that has ever toured Japan has said in interviews that the Japanses crowd is very different..... back in the day, they did not even move... just stand in their place, listen to the music and then clap at the end of each song....... just a different way of interacting......
Fuck ya man it was on point here as well was going fuckin nuts when it dropped..its OK the boys play a half step slower now Tomas is a monster just pushing through his physical ailments recently
@@nstuck8274 Gojira is an overrated live band. Dont get me wrong they are amazing and I have seen them on four occasions. But I think they played better back in the days. Joe's voice is not the same anymore, he have lost his edge
@@MrTelorixVocal-wise I'll agree, but their live sound is still massive and instrument-wise they are still proficient. I mean, Jens also changed up his vocal style, but we still love him.
Controversial opinion ahead Gojira is a great band and they showcase what human beings can achieve. They are the epitome of human perfection, everything from emotional aspect to precision, everything is great. But there is a point beyond that a human body can't achieve. But these guys...these guys have achieved beyond human capabilities. It is like i am watching Gods performing on the stage. I am convinced these guys are not human. In fact, the real question is what dimension they are from!
Recuerdos que la primera de Meshuggah en Chile al temrinar el concierto nadie del público se iba y cantamos cómo 20 minutos para que volvieran los músicos salieron como 3 veces a despedirse y la gente aún tenía la esperanza de que tocaran más temas fue un show increíble además de que fue la primera vez que probé el trip con un cogollo de raza espectacular en era como estar en otra dimensión con la música y las luces
I love how the light show actually keeps time with Haake and reflects the various polymeters. I still can't believe that this and every other song from ObZen is in 4/4...
I'm just here to see how much 3:34 has been timestamped in the comments. Here's fun: right before, hit the left arrow key, then right, then left then right, repeat... you can hear him get possessed by the metal gods in before/after realtime!
Banda sagaz até demais, o album do meshuggah obzem e o melhor de todos prá min, em minha opinião, os outros e bom tanbem, mas meu preferido e o album obzem. Muito caótico as músicas deste album, e apesar que a capa deste album, e especialmente brilhante a ponto de querer comprar uma camiseta deste album. Já sou fan dessa banda ah pouco tempo, e sou totalmente fan de cada obra desta banda, e o que mais me inpreciona, e a voz do vocalista, e todo mundo e foda slc, banda e atmosferica, sonzeira fudido no calor da tempestade. 2021..........................................................................................................................................................
Pour tous mes amis métaleux qui subissent cette sombre période et pour qui l'ambiance des concerts manque cruellement ainsi que toutes les personnes de la confrérie, de ce mouvement hautement respectueux et bienveillant malgré les looks de furieux !! peace.
Christ it must be satisfying to make art as good as this. They can all leave this planet knowing they contributed something immense
Well said.
A band way ahead of their time. Imagine being so good at what you do that you create a subgenre of music.
Beautifully said, it must be.
Look at the veins popping out of Jens's head. That guy's a fucking maniac... Easily one of my favorite metal vocalists.
You can't fool us Jens, just trying to compliment yourself eh... we can all see you in the photo Jens, knock it off Jens
@@magicbirch7406 😂
agreed
A bunch of guys who really know what they are doing.
Never saw such organized (the band) mental disorganization (me)
3:34 has to be one of the most epic screams in metal history... This is my favorite album by far.
+Anthony Reyes-Fournier i just tried it and fuck i fell short almost 2 full seconds
+Anthony Reyes-Fournier glad to see another scream appreciater
Obzen is one of a handful of 10/10 albums imo.
omg yes
ViolAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAte
3:34 this scream literally brings a smile on my face.
Glorious
3:34 Hi, we're Meshuggah and today we're gonna show how to create a black hole!
HAHA
So heavy the matter surrounding collapsed onto itself instantaneously
This is the greatest metal band of all time
💯
Yes they are, absolutely!!!
3:34 The whole universe trembles. Reality-shattering power
Idk who their sound crew of engineers are but Jesus Christ those guys deserve a raise. And excellent live performance also.
PrimitiveAK The dummers cousin lol. They were born to do this

@@hhward daaaaaaaaam, I knew they were playing but forgot as the covid 'gigs dont exist these days' mindset still lingers. Feckin rad dude:D
THIS
3:33 is so heavy. That scream in combination with that riff, wow!
BigNickel tell me about it i rewinded 100 times

Eric Reinhard goddamn what a show that must’ve been
That's a dream show. Two of my favourite bands in one night, lucky man
They blow tool out of the water. Gotta be an impossible act to follow. Literally the most talented musicians who live
@@gabberpietor nah they dont, Thomas haake has said himself he doesnt even understand most tool songs he listens too. I'd say they are very comparable, but on the same playing field all together. In complexity alone, tool is much harder to follow than Meshuggah
@@donnypatoine4475 what's ur source liar, cause i know thomas haake didnt say that. You made it up
3:35 one of the greatest moments in metal history
Came here 10 years after this to confirm this is still true today.
Meshuggah are so good that they gave birth to their own sub genre of metal.
Extreme Metal
God Metal
@Zelim
Well, they are Progressive metal Bands.
So is Tool and Mastodon too.
I mean Djent
0:40 So silent you can hear the snare vibrate from the guitar riff. Japanese crowds are so polite.
Had a headache before listening/watching this, now it's gone. Thanks Meshuggah! :D
I am really sick and this helped me also
Interesting how things that give a group of people a headache, take it away from others. For me metal is like medicine.
i love how you have a playlist “christian music.” Diverse listener 😀🤘
@@cameronwall5159 I’m kind of a weirdo....😁
@@louisanelson7948 you're awesome
3:36-4:14 is the heaviest riff of all time in history of metal.

TechNMusic naaah dude leprous has nothing on Meshuggah lol. In my opinion. Meshuggah is the Sound of destruction and apocalypse
@@TechNMusic i listened to that song. Shit has nothing on this song especially the breakdown. This one is just more brutal. Simple
Try the outro from dancers to a discordant system
This is pure insanity. The talent, virtuosity, passion, and showmanship of these guys is stunning.
I was in a psychosomatic cadaverous euphoria intenseitus maximus state from 3:35 - 3:45 and my heart stopped beating. True story.
I can hardly believe this is live!! It sounds so clean! Amazing performers.
+Koopagamelouda they have a beast sound guy, besides, i guess its recorded straight from the mixing table
Yep! On the right track +WhatTheFup
Meshuggah clearly have a perfectionist for their live sound guy holy shit
I can't ever get enough of all three guitarists headbanging at the same time while playing on stage together. It's almost laughable, but it's so badass at the same time.

How can it actually be even more awesome by re doing the audio?????
VIIIOOOOLLLLLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTEE
Love Meshuggah. Did anyone else notice how perfectly executed the lighting was at the beginning of the song? Just wowed by everything this band does
Their Lighting engineer is completely in sync with what there playing the whole time! there's Videos of it, He's incredible.
He really is
Donald Record I'm not sure, but I think I heard the lighting guy is actually related to one of the band members.
I just watched a bunch of his videos
Jamie Budge Actually, the lights engineer is a drummer! He's literally playing the lights as if they were an instrument along to the song!
The most incredible thing about this song is... it's in 4/4.
+Carlos Asuncion He's right, it fits 4/4 :D
+Reggie Postlethwaite Nearly all their songs are in 4/4 :)
That's also true.
also fits in 23/8...
Kadrick Ninness 6/8
3:34 most epic metal scream ever no-one does it like jedd.
Saw them two times live. Best performer ever, in metal industry.
All is perfect in their live: sound, light, performance. Just perfect. Always.
Amazing.
This is such an amazing live band. Takes you to another place when you're there.
This is one of the sickest breakdowns. It feels like the gate to hell
fuck yea bro
3:34 Sounds like a man in a spacesuit slowly being sucked into a black hole screaming
No, Jens is the black hole
My favourite Meshuggah song! Easily top 10 songs by them!
Man oh man what a wonderfully beastly expression of power xx
Tomas is just chilling with his drum..
I'm just obsessed with this performance
It's amazing how on-point they are! So precise and flawless! They practice a lot! Holy shit!
They actually doesn't practice at all!
1:18 THAT DROP THO !!!!!!!!!!!!!
That chug just kinda eats you alive. holy fuck.
Spectacular performance. Guys, Meshuggah is The Music.
Meshuggah technically aren't music. For music you need harmony, melody and rhythm. But they are still my favourite band.
***** Theyre fucking amazing is what they are
***** 1. I don't see how Meshuggah songs don't have harmony/melody/rhythm. Elaborate please?
2. Aside from that, having harmony and melody and rhythm is far from the definition of music in my opinion. I'd define music as any collection of sounds that the artist who made/arranged it would call music.

Jens’ vocals are just too good… I still can’t believe it in 2024
This song is so badass, so heavy, the mix is on point also as always with meshuggah, and Jens is crushing it here 🤘
Ditto
They sounded fucking insane at the palladium but this is just the like only performance a little better 🤣
Fuck ya man it was on point here as well was going fuckin nuts when it dropped..its OK the boys play a half step slower now Tomas is a monster just pushing through his physical ailments recently
3:34 HEAVY AS FUCKKKK!!!
I cant stop listening to this song , the pure raw energy is addictive.
3:34 the way he held that scream gave me chills. Fuckin sick.
3:33 taking a shit after too much mexican food.
This is hands down the best fucking scream in metal history.
Just a reminder....they are doing this LIVE with REAL instruments! Out of the world.
Fucking heaviest band of all time no doubt, saw em on this tour in NYC. Best show ever, can’t believe they’re humans
ferocious
Going to see them for the first time in a month. I’m just sad that I didn’t discover them much sooner.
How was it?
@@02SplinterCell02 better than expected, and my expectations were high. I’m seeing them again in November.
The outro gives me goosebumps :O so heavy and kind of atmospheric
Haha look at the vocalist keeping time with his foot, he struggles to headbang it's so intense! Respect dude...
This sounds much better than the studio version. Idk how these guys sound better live than in studio, almost every band has it opposite.
Like Gojira !
Unpopular opinion- Gojira sucks live because they are never sober.

Cannot believe the balls it takes to pull this off live. But they are Meshuggah.

It's not a djent. This is math metal.

Definitely, man.

So ... Fucking ... Heavy.

3:34 sounds like the decepticons are about to destroy humanity
so yea this is the best meta band
His name is Tomas Haake. One of the best drummers.
The story goes that "drum machines" learned from him 🤣🤣
2:09 That scream...
Even Satan gets scared!
1:28 - 1:30 the most heavy two seconds in the existence of sound.
Are they actually performing it live???? Seriously amazing... Long live Meshuggah.
28 November in Portugal, I waited around 8 years for this!!
THE DRUMMER IS INSANE !!! :) SWEDISH MACHINES !!! RESPECT FROM BULGARIA TO SWEDEN !!!
Still the most satisfying drop to me!
up there with the greatest i don’t care
