This is off their 3rd album, Chaosphere. They were formed back in 1987, and they've always been in a league of their own. It took decades for mainstream metal to even start catching up to them. Personally I think this is one of the best music videos ever, and it perfectly demonstrates what metal music is all about. :)
1987! Wow.
I'm not sure...Someone may have mentioned that to me earlier.. I've read thousands of comments now from 60ish videos. The info is starting to blur. I am surprised to hear they've been around that long.
Yes
They're so tight even their sunglasses don't fall off.
With the Rational Gaze video(2002) they took it 'up' a notch. (Jens Kidman: "Videoclip? I got this.")
Haha.
Couldn't click faster on this video. Gotta do Future Breed Machine by Meshuggah next. It''s another older song that's a crowd favorite.
Good tip! Thanks.
I fucking LOVE the "Garden State" reference!!! These guys are pioneers of something no one else had done and are still making incredible music. As someone else stated Catch 33 is one you need to listen to ( but to long for a reaction) but still think you'd appreciate the drum Thomas Hakke "Clockworks" video. Awesome react!!reaction!!! Keep it up!!
Thanks mate!
Great react! Loved the details you picked up on and talked about. The solo (tapped section) is very Alan Holdsworth in both tonality and technique, one of Fredrik Thordendal's big influences.
You should listen to the "None EP" released in 1994 which definitely has elements of thrash but is moving towards that over the bar-line, heavily syncopated sound and "Destroy Erase Improve" (1995) which is where things really take off rhythmically and heaviness.
Awesome, I was hoping you'd find this song. Now you know what they get up to in their spare time on the tour bus. The singer Jens Kidman was belting lyrics into a red pen
Ahh cool. Couldn't make it out. Thanks!
Best music video ever and it costed $0
It certainly makes a statement.
You need to check out some of their earlier thrashier stuff to see their evolution. Maybe something like "Ritual" "Soul Burn" "Greed" etc.
Songs from the "Contradictions Collapse" album or the "None" Ep.
Respect from The UK, 0121! 🤘🏼
Thanks mate! I'll take a look!
Love any excuse to listen to this song, but I like how you analyze it hahah, when it comes to stuff like meshuggah, especially songs like this, I’m just stuck in how good it sounds, and the groove. Meshuggah needs to be rated more 😤😤
If they ever play chaosphere tracks live again I WANNA HEAR THIS AND BE IN THE PIT
When you mentioned the 'ooee ooee' sound you could hear at around 6:30, all I could think of was the chick outta Kung Pow.
Weeeoooowwwweeeeee!!
Great reaction and very interesting digging into that time or era of metal, comparing it to other bands. Very typical of meshuggah to go against grain even with the less main stream genres such as heavy metal, gotta love it
Thanks! I was a little out of my depth on this one. Loved the song though.
@@PrymalChaos Definitely check out more Meshuggah! Rational Gaze / Demiurge / Break Those Bones.. and any of their live stuff is awesome to watch 👍
Best music video ever :)
Don't over think it. They were paying homage to young metalhead fans playing air guitars, air drums, air mic with a pencil. That's why the video is low res. It's "air video". Every young metalhead has air guitared while listening to their favorite band and imagining themselves in a music video. This video is just Meshuggah saying we were like that too, and we're still like that.
You're forgetting another band that was around at the time, the one that Meshuggah cites as an influence. Pantera.
Yeah that makes a lot more sense actually.
Prymal about to bust out eruption!
😂 maybe. At least I can 'comprehend' Eruption. This song on the other hand...this is just awesome chaos.
Smooth reaction par excellence!!! Love your easying into the low specks of the video and at the same time being aware of the cold nasty fuckoff riffage running around. My english is stuffy. But dude, chaos makes people come together. Thanx
Yeah they get sharper and deeper, darker on C33 and ObZen
I really dig this song. I like when musicians smash the rulebook.
Clockworks drum play through next!!
As far as the solos go, Fredrik, their guitarist; is a huge Allan Holdsworth fanboy. Hence the use of bizarre harmony and flurry of notes. Listening to it, I bet he thought what Allan did was tapping, not knowing that the guy just had a monster left hand.
That’s probably accurate. They never used to have play throughs and lessons on RUclips. The kids these days will never know “listening to the tape and trying to figure it out bar by bar” 😂
I hope you do a Blackbriar reaction soon.
Arms of the ocean.
Dude, what a treat of a rection. Thank you.
Haha. Thanks! This video is a trip! They’re such an oddball band, but it’s remarkable how talented they are. They’re just on a different level.
6:25
Good ear, man!
Bass!
Thanks mate. I barely caught it. There's so much going on in that part.
They literally invented djent. No frame of reference, just their own sound they invented. They aren't human
It’s a wild ride getting to know these guys.
@@PrymalChaos It really is. They were just way too ahead of their time. You should watch their Stockholm 1996 (I believe?) show on RUclips. It's wild how even when they were thrashier they still sounded like a band from the future and you can tell the audience isn't sure how to mosh or headbang to that kind of music yet
Oh man this bangs
They usually use a 4/4 base but build on top of that. I think pretty much all their albums use 4/4 for the most part. But it sounds so complex. Not sure if they still do this but they normally create the music on a computer. Tomas created most of it from what I remember. Him and Fredrik? I forget. I do know their last album was when they jammed for the first time unlike they did for years. Not sure how this new album was made though.
Yeah it's an interesting process. It just shows. That you don't have to use complex time signatures to make complex music.
I do like a 5/4 though from time to time!
As of now there are only 2 songs I know of that actually don't use 4/4
Demons Name Is Surveillance and Armies of the Preposterous both use 3/4 or 6/8
Keep it up Dude! Much love from Brissy! \m/
Thanks mate! Will do!
I sometimes listen to meshuggah and stop in a trance and can hear right on the middle of the groove their bass just going absolutely nuts, sounding like a razor wire. Are you with me?
6:20 you mentioned it there. Is that the bass then?
They end it in a very clean break live.
Imagine just being stopped at a red light and U look over and see some middle age SWEDS ACTING LIKE THEY ON ACID 😂 AND BASHING AND F’N around on their tour bus
I’ve got them headphones. Had them for years. They’re great aren’t they
They're fantastic! If anyone ever asks me for affordable reference headphones I always recommend the ATs. Brilliant.
I had an issue with them squeaking when I move and because the mic is right by my head it got picked up in my videos.
If not for that I'd still be using them. But I took the opportunity to upgrade to some Bayer Dynamic ones which are phenomenal. But to be fair the BD ones are about 7x the price.
Cane Hill - Power of the High
Pretty please
"random notes" naaa dont think so
No synths. Just some guitar fx they've been pioneering since the 90s
Yeah I thought it sounded more like a guitar.
All guitar no synths all the time
Very cool sounds!
Yo, always trust the Dan!
Good recommendation
Enjoyed the reaction to this mate : one of my all time favorite tracks, but tbh, I've always enjoyed the live version off the DVD more than the album version of NMCC (easy to find on youtube). Tbh, the production of Chaosphere isnt that good imo.
Thanks for the tip!
No synths just Guitar effects
Nice!
Quality reaction. Fucking A
Thank you! I appreciate that!
So, few days ago I recommended Bloodywood, Indian street folk metal band, with their song Ari, ari. But, there is a new one, "Aaj", and this one is even more a banger, I maintain Aaj is an Anthem! I do hardly recommend you to react to it! Greetz from Germany
I'll take a look!
Turns out they use a lot of math metal themes but don't notate it.
I just don't know how they communicate the ideas. One guy must write the riffs and then everyone else just learns the patterns.
What's wild is that these days everyone has a digital home studio where writing riffs is easy. You can loop things, edit stuff cut and paste. Back then gear was expensive and cumbersome to edit with. People were still using cassette multitracks and digital units were bulky and expensive. They probably write using ADAT machines. Who knows.
Either way. Super impressive.
So, you didn't want to look at an older music video because it looks .. older??
Umm ... .
At the time I was concerned with the visual aspect of the content. It seemed like I couldn’t find a reasonable resolution version for the reaction video. I didn’t know that that was the point.
Nowadays I wouldn’t care. I’ve done songs that have lyric videos or no video at all.
Dancers to a Discordant System is their best song. this is not up for debate, if anyone thinks it is up for debate, they are wrong, plain and simple. Their next best song is Future Breed Machine, which is also not up for debate.
I have neither the knowledge or desire to debate you on such matters, so I will take you at your word, sir.
*Firm handshake.
💜😍
you can't sing a polyrythm and this song is not polyrythmic. Read the drum sheet and guitar and bass tab. god reaction tho
Yeah you’re right. Stream of consciousness letting me down again. 🤣🤣 having said that bands like Meshuggah baffle me. They could be playing 6 different meters simultaneously and I’d probably miss it. There’s so much going on. It’s fascinating but it makes my head spin.
