      I agree. I just saw Meshuggah live the other week and they are still machines and they sound as good as ever. That would be better live than on album. I assumed they didn't play Bleed beause they wanted to play something else for a change but the set was very short, like 1h 30mins? They are getting old and they are also perfectionists so if you want to see these legends in action you better go next time they are in town

    Meshuggah use 4/4 a lot, that's kind of the genius of them. They trick you into thinking something's simple when it's not. They basically use rhythms that dance in and out of the 4/4 bar structure. You can notice this often by hearing Tomas Haake keep a 4/4 rhythm in the background on a crash symbol whilst the rest of the band go mental outside of that structure.

      @JM Coulon Broken Cog is such a trip. Sounds like a simple intro song until you try to figure out the beginning chugs (5 rest rest 13 rest rest) in rhythmic sense. You can almost count them in 7 pulses or 11 pulses before they repeat and it still feels right. Once the snare comes in you are locked into a 4/4 feel but the chug patterns are woven in such a bizarre way. The main groove halfway through the song is definitely a 6/8 (or 12/8 for sakes of the guitar riff).

    I think "I Am That Thirst" is one of the best songs on this record, even better following "Black Cathedral" in the context of the album, but the second half of that track floors me every time I hear it, to burst into that amazing groove and drum pattern coming out of that middle section is fucking infectious. Just my two cents. It's so menacing and it flows so beautifully, that riff and drum pattern swimming on Tomas' crash keeping the back beat, then you get immediately pummeled by "The Faultless", and then of course "Armies" to finish the listener off for good. The last 3 tracks just fucking kill (not counting "Past Tense").

    This is the first album I've heard from Meshuggah - yeah, I'm definitely late to the party. Really intense and surprisingly emotional album. I've been reading Angela Carter's Heroes and Villains while listening to it for the second time [first time I was concentrating on the music, third time I listened and watched with you :)] and it was such a fitting soundtrack to the book that I felt it appropriate to mention it here. I really liked that second listen as the music gave additional feeling to the words I was reading and vice versa.
    For me, this is one of those albums where the songs are like chapters. If you listen to any of the segments alone they always feel like they are missing something but together everything makes sense [especially the feeling of repetition].
    Thank you for the reaction and I miss polls all the time so: I love album reactions. Definitely keep those up! I hope you won't have any more trouble with this video though 🙂

    This is by far the best Meshuggah album imo.
    Older fans might think that is blasphemous, and I adore a lot of the older records. But they hit supernatural levels of creativity on this record; the atmosphere they create on e.g., Broken Cog and They Move Below, takes me to places in music I didn't think I could go to. And their guitar tone on here was the best it's ever been in my book.

    I think that albums are cool because it's very unique content. A lot of people are so concerned with working the algorithm and spitting out content that they don't take the time to do one whole album straight through. That being said, I love the single reactions as well and I think it would be great for you to do a mix of them if at all possible.

    IT'S BACK! I'm so happy to see this back as I wanted to know how you felt about this album for so long. I thought it was amazing and I think They Move Below is seriously one of the best works they've ever done. I also personally LOVE the album reactions. A lot of the songs sound so much better in the context of the full experience, and I like going on that journey with you, friend

    ive listened to it like 4 or 5 times now, really coming back to the middle of the album starting at Ligature Marks and continuing to The Faultless. The whole thing is crazy, but the deep tracks are so dense and this album is easily a 9/10 for me. Listening passively or really paying attention gives you new perspectives and its just a great piece of work. they're unstoppable

      Agree. Was a few songs skipped on Koloss in later years on every play. The likes of into decay and by the ton on VSOR too.
      The slower sludgier stuff far more on point on this album. The groove tunes will always be magnificent, nobody does it like them.

    There is definitely one more album, maybe not from Meshuggah but the side project Fredrick Thordendal's Special Defects will drop their second one eventually!
    This album klicked with me a lot faster than many of their other albums and my brain melted more times in the first listen than during their three previous albums combined. Love their experimentation here, best album since Catch 33 and I.

    Just noticed our guy is bobbing his head to the wrong subdivision. Broken Cog is in triplets, my friend 😉👍But that's Meshuggah for you.
    So I'll just wait here patiently until Armies of the Preposterous. 6/8 in 16th note triplets. Took me a while. 🤯

    • @gabeherophenom406
      @gabeherophenom406 2 года назад

      I think of armies as 6/4 in 8th triplets, but same idea. Just different ways of notating the same rhythms. But that triple-triple feel on armies as well as “the demons name is surveillance” are so tricky, especially to play

    Mate your the best for doing these , honestly, in my opinion the best meshuggah reactions on youtube, cause you represent what all us fans wanna see. Your not an expert in this music, not some far gone metalhead that hates anything conventional, just a regular person who's willing to give it a go, give it an honest listen and find out for yourself just how groovy and amazing the band is, something we wish we saw in our loved ones, our families and friends who just write it off as noise. We know you appreciate the music but we appreciate you just as much, for giving it a go and letting the spectacular nature or the band reveal itself to you through genuine attempts at understanding their magic. Thank you
