Meshuggah is pretty much all in 4/4. That beat is either kept by the right hand or the left foot. Then they’ll create repeating 16 x 4/4 patterns (64 quarter notes or 128 eighth notes). Then there will be an underlying rhythm in something like 28/8. That rhythm will repeat underneath the 4/4 beat. It will be 28/8 + 28/8 + 28/8 + 28/8+ 16/8 = 128/8. The rhythm will be cut short the last time through to resolve with the 4/4. Typically that 28/8 pattern will be grouped into 2s and 3s, like: 2-2-3-2-3-3-2-2-3-3-3 and then repeat. Then the underlying pattern will switch for the next section. RUclipsr Yorgev Gabay does a good job of breaking down Meshuggah polyrhythms.
Except for very specific parts, almost all of Meshuggah has "Snare on 3", its basically just 4/4 where the guitars sometimes go over the bar, then it resolves, and the bass drum pretty much always just follows the guitar rhythm. That syncopation between the two rhythms are what makes it interesting, but that standard 4/4 underneath it all is what makes it groove and work
It is all in 4/4, but there is polymeter embedded here- see below for a good description fo how they divide the beats. An amazing piece, it took Tomas 6 months to learn.
Buckethead- hold me forever From a guitarist to a guitarist its my duty to show you this song lol. I hope you react to it you ll see what buckethead really is
Mario Duplantier and Tomas Haake sat in a bar.......there's a joke in there somwhere. There's a reason there are fucking (pardon my french) terms in a college teaching ONLY Meshuggah theory ffs lol. Tomas (and if you ask me Mario from Gojira) arent human.
