The first thing I tell anyone who checks out Meshuugah for the first time os throw out what you know or any preconceived notions you may have about what this band may sound like. it means absolutely dick to this band.
This drumming isn't crazy because he's playing fast or anything like that; it's crazy because he's essentially playing two different songs... at once... His feet are going in one time, and his hands are going in a completely different time...
@@19RaxR91 How so? I once rode an mtb marathon and the last third of that was pure fucking agony. If what you said was true no one could do that shit. Without some sort of tension muscles don't move and the fact that he makes a pained face while playing this is not only very understandable because that kind of motion this consistently will make your muscles burn like someone poured acid into your veins, it also makes the whole deal just more impressive than it is on account of how it sounds already.
Fun fact: the light effects are done by Thomas haakes brother. He's just tapping on the keyboard in the same rhythm as the drums. Totally insane light show
The drummer on this song is on fire great work by him. This is one of Meshuggas's best songs. I remember you said you were going to react to some other metal bands like Metallica, Anthrax and Slayer I am looking forward to your reaction to them as well. It is always great to see people reacting to songs and bands.
It’s difficult to truly and accurately describe how difficult this song is to play on the drums unless you’re a drummer who knows polyrhythms and has attempted to learn this song. Tomas Haake was already a monster before Meshuggah recorded this album (Obzen), but he spent 90% of the total time he dedicated to this album learning “Bleed” because of how demanding it was. He’s playing two different time signatures throughout the entire song. His hands are playing a straight 4/4, but his feet are playing off a different time, which means his snare is landing several different places within the various parts multiple times before it hits in the same place again. That’s very difficult to pull off in a single part let alone 8 or more parts (some of which are revisited more than once) that experience changing foot patterns that transition seamlessly and very fast. Some of the foot patterns switch the lead foot within the pattern - alluding mainly to second pattern. The chorus pattern is very difficult to find the beginning and the end of; it’s written to confuse the listener when trying to find the point where it begins. Last, adding insult to injury, is the length of the song, which demands near perfection on extreme difficulty for over 8 minutes. I’m learning this song, but I only have the first pattern down. This is DEFINITELY legendary level. I’ll be learning this song for a LONG time. Whenever I practice it, everything else seems elementary.
Musicians respecting the art wether you are a fan of the genre or not that amount of dedication and practice speaks for itself, and shout out the guitarist too for keeping ridiculously tight with the drums, this whole band is one tight unit ❤️
Gotta give props to Meshuggah's light operator, he "plays" the lights *live* in time with the band - there are videos floating around which shows him just mangling away at his control box, the one from Paris in 2012 is pretty cool (and includes parts of Bleed).
You need to listen to more of the Swedish metal scene, it's huge and a big influence around the globe. Opeth, In Flames, Entombed, At the gates, Hypocrisy, Dark Tranquility, dismember (the list goes on and on!)
Lmao I cannot believe you did these guys , I love these guys I'm 45 but I usually watch you for the Zeppelin ect.. now that I see your open to anything I'll make a request jinjer - preacher preacher . And hats off to you for being this open!
Tomas Haake (the Drummer) suffers from a herniated Disk, which makes drumming even more difficult. He had to find a way to work around it by hitting the bass drums in a different way. Check out Wikipedia - Fact or Fiction with Tomas Haake and you will learn a lot of interesting things about him being a druimmer. The first time I saw Meshugga live, was in 1996 opening for Clawfinger. One of the best concerts I had the privilege to witness.
Nice that you figured out that about the singer. Also you noticed the Lights. If you watch more meshuggah videos you will see that their Lightguy is The 6th member. I du no how its these days, but he used to/does the lightning live, tapping Buttons to the music. It all comes togheter as a whole, and damn, to see them live, mmmhmmmm Also; do clockworks drum through 😀
Skill level Cyborg!!!!! Thomas Haake is the cyborg octopus! Many non-drummers think playing two different beats, one polyrhythm with your feet, and an odd time signature, with the downbeat on 3, with your hands is hard. It’s really fucking hard.. especially after playing more songs from their catalog, before and after this. I have played this song many times, and everytime, my calves and feet are just one big cramp. I eat two bananas during the mellow bridge part, and I still cramp up. It takes years of practice to play this song smoothly, and on time..
It's interesting you mention the colours, the lighting technician is actually the 6th member of the band, he actually controls all those lights manually in time to the music with a big board, it's not programmed.
James Metcalfe I call bullshit, a band this technical and that plays to a click has 90% programmed... go spew your false mythos garbage to the preteens just discovering technical metal, poser
Thomas is the PERFECT analogy for ‘A duck in water’. Watching the top half of his body, he’s chillin’, hanging in the 4/4 pocket, just groovin. Then you look at his feet... and you can see perfectly... V-Tec has officially kicked in. That being said, as impressive as all their polymetric acrobatics are, it is a force to behold when they go straight 4/4 time. I STRONGLY recommend Meshuggah’s ‘Demiurge’. It’s... mildly aggressive. 🤣
I've been playing drums my entire life and have never attempted this song. It's stupid hard. It took Tomas 6 months to learn it, according to music legend :) It's an insane drumming track, but they make much better songs. Try: --Clockworks, --Break Those Bones Whose Sinews Gave it Motion, --Do Not Look Down, or --New Millennium Cyanide Christ.
Bleed is one of those songs where two people in the audience could headbang at two entirely different tempos, but both are in correct tempo. Polyrhythms are fun. Lol
Comedian Bill Burr did a bit on his podcast about going to see Meshuggah with his drum teacher, and someone made a video for it and posted it on RUclips. It is pretty damn fantastic.
I'm glad you mentioned the lights. Messhuggahs light guy is an extremely important part of the show. And he has to keep in time with these guys. Absolutely amazing.
I’m not a fan of the growling vocal style but love this band. So tight. The musicianship really is top notch. Drummer said he had to re teach himself how to play drums to learn how to play that song. It’s all about the feet.
I'm alway's amazed at how easy drummer's make it look, even though there's so much going on. You should look up this guy named George Kollias. I can't think of the correct name of the song. I want to say What's Dead Shall Rise.. I'm probably wrong, but it's something similar if I am wrong. It's a play through session. Just him in a room, with the music track playing on a computer or whatever. Dude's feet move something crazy. The camera has a hard time keeping up.
Ok man your Jinjer reactions were good. You liked the band but they appeal to a much wider audience than Meshuggah. The fact that you sat thru this and was amazed..loved Haake's groove...recognized the difficulty and wanted more of that smoke just got you another sub my man. Keep it up.
Instant subscription!!! What a great reaction man!! I have never seen props given to a drummer like that, and it was all true (core strength, endurance, etc). PLEASE react to Meshuggah Clockworks drum playthrough!! Thank you!!!
Just an FYI, Tomas has had lower back problems for many years, He could barely use His Right foot for years witch shows what a BEAST He is \m/ He Also in the past few years developed eczema on BOTH His Hands :( so he wares 2 gloves and tapes his hands up so he can deal with the pain....... :( WHAT a Man Right??? Peace, Love & Music :)
Mussugga i might have spelled it wrong this band is Swedish and hard core metal every were in the world 🌎 i have seen them live in concert a while back the guitar playing is fast and the drums are even better and the vocals 👌 are so tight but different to understand the world's and now with this virus out there in so many countries and city's the people have to play it safe and smart with this type of virus
I legitimately thought this was Lebron James listening to Meshuggah for a split second. This is awesome. I love watching reaction videos of my favorite bands! I’d recommend listening to Gojira, Tool (drum video of the track Pneuma to be exact as well as other tracks of theirs), Car Bomb, Between the Buried and Me. 😂🤣👍🏽🙌🏽🤘🏽
You gotta do Meshuggah's Clockworks... talk about polyrithmic drumming... it's like 7 layer burrito from the 4th Dimension. Tomas Haake is Legendary Master Drummer God.🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
It's even heavier, but if you want to see another absolutely insane drummer, there's a drum cam video for The Faceless - Planetary Duality. They're a technical death metal band, and the drummer in the vis is insane
One of the most technical bands out there. Mind-blowing. Check out Of Blood & Salt... The guitarist of Meshuggah, Gorjira's front man and Devin. A Perfect Storm. 🤘🔥🤘
Please react to Zakk Wylde - Black Label Society - In This River - Live In Paris(2006). Zakk (ozzy osbourne's long time guitarist) is one of the greatest guitarists alive today. Thanks.
Great song. I would start a little more commercial friendly from their selection then dive in to the complex stuff. I usually suggest Demiurge or maybe Do not look down. Glad you could enjoy it regardless. Would love to see more!
Meshuggah - Swarm has a very interesting drumming too. They're playing with time and your head. INCREDIBLE. Do the fan-made video on VIMEO if you can. You won't get through mentally.
I was wondering whether you would be interested in two bands in particular? Eluveitie is a folk metal band from Switzerland, their songs King and Rebirth would appeal to your senses of melody as well as being in the metal genre. As well, I’ve never seen anyone react to Tyr, a Viking metal band from the Faroe Islands. I think you would greatly enjoy the song The Lay of Our Love, a duet with a female vocalist, which is absolutely gorgeous workmanship
I don’t know why, but I enjoy the musical reactions of black guys (and girls) much more. And you are the most enjoyable. Greetings from Russia :) My suggestion for next Meshuggah song is Clockworks. You can find the version with only drum cam from studio if you want
After discovering your page a few days ago I specifically went back through a bunch of your videos to see if you had done a "Bleed" rection yet. Was definitely not disappointed! lol You should check out Between the Buried and Me too! Their drummer is equally awesome. Some good songs would be Telos, Prequel to the Sequel, Swim to the Moon, White Walls, Bloom, The Ectopic Stroll, and so many more. Love your channel man! You have a new fan!
Meshuggah is one of my favorite bands, Bleed is on my staylist. Great reaction...Colossus would be a good one if you want to hear more. Oh yeah, SUBSCRIBED. ;)
Å friend of mine from Sweden knows him well. He is a machine. My favourite drummer is Gavin Harrison of Porcupine tree. A more refined drummer. Check out "Anesthetize" (live from Tillburg) great progressive!
Mushuggah don't follow time signatures, time signatures follow Meshuggah. There is no wrong way to headbang to them.
Actually it's 4/4, you can headbang to the snare. That is what makes it insane.
@@thewildhealer541 true. Carl Eckert, you are really wrong with this sentence.
I just follow the hi hat.
I see your Chuck Norris there!
Polyrhythmic
Thank you. You figured out that the vocals are more of a percussion instrument than actually singing. That's the first key to understanding Meshuggah.
Yeah even metal elitists have a hard time figuring that one out
Yep, it took me a bit to figure that out, but I eventually realized it.
Oddly, I learned it from comment sections. Not often they prove a source of useful information
It’s the key to extreme metal in general.
The first thing I tell anyone who checks out Meshuugah for the first time os throw out what you know or any preconceived notions you may have about what this band may sound like. it means absolutely dick to this band.
"that's the the only type of singin' that should go with that type of drumming" spot on observation!
lolz me an mcncl mats trolling meshuggah reactions in 2020 ;)
I could hear some Robert Palmer to that.
@@timothydog76 xDDD
Thomas Haake (the drummer) is writing the lyrics
This drumming isn't crazy because he's playing fast or anything like that; it's crazy because he's essentially playing two different songs... at once... His feet are going in one time, and his hands are going in a completely different time...
Metronome: I’m good at keeping time.
Tomas Haake: Hold my beer, I’m about to ruin this man’s whole career.
Lmao.
Danny Carey has left the building....Forever.
trash
@@GooseGumlizzard thrash
😂
people who have never listened to mesuggah are NEVER ready for mesuggah i love the reactions
The thing I love most about this video is how relaxed Tomas is the entire song. Any tension would have messed him up.
Dude, pay attention to his face and then say that again.
@@SpielkindFR Thats funny alright, but if the case was that you implied, he wouldnt be able to play the song in the first place.
@@19RaxR91 How so? I once rode an mtb marathon and the last third of that was pure fucking agony. If what you said was true no one could do that shit.

@@SpielkindFR in the beginning he does look pretty chill
@@bodhi9937 yeah, but at the end?
After you have defeated all the other S-Class metal drum gods, Tomas is the final boss.
Gene Hoglan says otherwise
@Scott Stapp Yeah, Morgan is pretty fucking amazing. He can do anything Tomas can do plus much more.
@@turtlenecks i read taht if tomas cant figure out something he wrote in protools on drums, he asks morgan for help.
@@countbleck35 Morgan is a beast
If you hit Up Up Down Down Left Right Left Right Start Select after defeating Tomas, Danny Carey shows up as a secret boss.
Tomas Haake( Ha-kuh) is the metronome you experience when you have an aneurysm.
Hm, no, not -uh, eh is the key, Haa-keh.
Apropos, since that’s what the song is about.
I recommend Meshuggah's "Break those bones whose sinews gave it motion"
This is the track that made me a hard-core Meshuggah fan.
Slow-paced destruction!
Super intense!
“Ain’t no skippin leg day” I just woke up the wife laughing
No One: What time signature are you playing in?
Tomas Haake: Yes.
Fun fact: the light effects are done by Thomas haakes brother. He's just tapping on the keyboard in the same rhythm as the drums. Totally insane light show
His cousin*
"Thats the only type of singin that should go with that type of drummin"

This is what happens when you give Vikings instruments. 👍
How they call it? Blues?
Being a fan of this band from 1996. Favourite album - "Destroy Erase Improve".

Not anymore. I believe the same guy programs it now to run auto synced with their click track and music
Yeah, it’s all auto-synched via PC with an in-ear click now.
You need to listen to more of the Swedish metal scene, it's huge and a big influence around the globe. Opeth, In Flames, Entombed, At the gates, Hypocrisy, Dark Tranquility, dismember (the list goes on and on!)
That is some serious right brain left brain cohesion!
Lmao I cannot believe you did these guys , I love these guys I'm 45 but I usually watch you for the Zeppelin ect.. now that I see your open to anything I'll make a request jinjer - preacher preacher . And hats off to you for being this open!
The drummer is amazing that's unbelievable 💞💞💞💞💞💞
I recommend Rational Gaze, Marrow, and most of all: New Millennium Cyanide Christ by Meshuggah
Humiliative and combustion.
campfire version? :D
NMCC has, probably, the greatest video of all time!
If you want to experience the audio equivalent of a chainsaw through your brain listen to The Demons name is surveillance.
definitely combustion
No matter how many times i see them live, their stamina amazes me!! 🤟
Jamel: "What level is this y'all?"
Me:. "Over 9000!!!!!"

ohhhhh boy, you're going in deep waters now my friend! I love these guys. They are extremely talented.
I love that you watched the drummer footage for this song. Insane drums
"Ain't no skipping leg day" lol
Just when I think you can't make this channel any better you go and pull something like this!
I appreciate your open mindedness. Meshuggah isn't the easiest to listen to but it is rewarding.
Thomas Haake, that is playing. Is professor in dumming. Which says something about his talent, haha.
Maybe the best drummer in Sweden
Sweden is a funny way to spell "The World"
Gochisou Japan Hahaha... I was thinking the same thing. He’s definitely in “the world” conversation - not just Sweden.
As for Sweden it's definitely between him and Morgan Ågren.
Great Reaction Jamel.
I saw them with Tool some years back. That was a great show
I bet!
I saw Tool and Meshuggah in Knoxville in 2002 or 2003. Nasty show. I don't think many people there were prepared for Meshuggah.
Your right. That's about what the vocals are. I've seen this band twice. Phenomenal band live.
Nice that you figured out that about the singer. Also you noticed the Lights. If you watch more meshuggah videos you will see that their Lightguy is The 6th member. I du no how its these days, but he used to/does the lightning live, tapping Buttons to the music. It all comes togheter as a whole, and damn, to see them live, mmmhmmmm

There are lots of videos like this one on just the drummers, called drum cam. Props for doing a video by Meshuggah.

Check out the official lyric video for "Do Not Look Down." It's one of the most accessible Meshuggah songs and incredibly groovy.
One in the best drummers in the world. His timing and separation is simply epic ^^
Metronomes keep their time by listening to Tomas Haake

I'm glad you recognize how amazing this drummer is. Usually non drummers don't see it, but you do.

Haake is a beast on the drums, from my hometown, grow up with this! ❤️

Thomas is the PERFECT analogy for ‘A duck in water’. Watching the top half of his body, he’s chillin’, hanging in the 4/4 pocket, just groovin. Then you look at his feet... and you can see perfectly... V-Tec has officially kicked in. That being said, as impressive as all their polymetric acrobatics are, it is a force to behold when they go straight 4/4 time. I STRONGLY recommend Meshuggah’s ‘Demiurge’. It’s... mildly aggressive. 🤣
Hard Stuff!.....i love this Band and their Concerts are AWSOME !!!!
I still like their thrasher days, but that’s a peak track in drumming for the ages.

Went on tour with this band in 08, very nice guys!!! Got to play his drum set and their 7-8 string guitars, good times
that drummer is nearly 50. and his wife is Maria on Orange is the new black. so hes definitely a beast
Bleed is one of those songs where two people in the audience could headbang at two entirely different tempos, but both are in correct tempo. Polyrhythms are fun. Lol
You've conquered "Bleed" now you need to sit back and watch Meshuggah "Clockworks" drum run through.You haven't seen anything yet!
