Meshuggah - I
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 апр 2014
- I - this fractal illusion burning away all structure toward the obscene
I - to cleanse, to purge, to breach eternity and smother all life
Blind-these mortal men of clay, divine and dying in their harassed form
I-this furnace of limitless hate. Bestial, pure
The pendulum swings semi-attached to the center of all
I drug these minds into ruin and contempt-the acid smoke of burning souls
This is an anomaly. Disabled. What is true?
Not destined for incarceration, I crave my nothingness
The illness that they whisper of, is that what makes me fail?
I see through the eyes of the of the blind
Not clear what it is to be this self I dread, the immense, the rabid I am
The cogs turn, grinding away at ceaselessness-willing it to dust
Re-disintegration. Convulse. A dead universe-Impales this twilight
Fear aligns. Sadistic me. Meant to devour. Despair
Sickened by the fact that immortality is not mine to have.
A snail along a straight razor-dividing itself through motion
I charge this feeble product of god
Laughing, drenched in the bile of millions
Chewing on the stinking flesh of the crown of creation
Solitude in splendor has been rivalled
Shroud stained with tarblack vomit
Veiling the rotting eyes of the masses
The strain of Armageddon evolves
Shifting through worlds from chaos, to chaos, to chaos
I devour this manure of existence-infertile, barren, whole
Rancid redeemer. Virulent deterioration of faith
Sacrilege in persona. In truth, fundamentally twisted
A witness to this savage carnage. A frenzy of animosity
The will to mutilate. Dominant deviation
The worship of the sick and degenerate will spread
I - The nihilist, not the lunatic
Ridding my godlike being of doubt
Obliterating all hope of escape
I - Enter the echoes of despair
Miracles inverted by default, a reflex to devastate
Soaking in the will to violate, to castrate
Soiling the purpose of mankind. Deus ex machina on hold
The orgasmic, the splendid, the beginning of the end
Conception derived from misconceptions
The dimensionless features of truth
Silence in the core of undoing
Untie its knots and set it loose
The inertia of my existence is clear
Premutation of slaughtered worlds
I alone will behold the dying sky
A servant of eternity
Progress finally, emergence of doom complete
Here only to reverse the flow of life
I

I heard 90% of the mass of the observable universe comes from this song...
Misschien wel nog veel meer, tot 200% heb ik gehoord.
@@molochz Dark energy, too!
I heard aliens listen to this when they visit Earth.

I'm starting to think aliens wrote this, dude.

No one knows, how I goes.
-Thomas Haake
I know exactly how it goes from 16:28 and it's not good for the kids walking home from school. It's not the Ice Cream Truck
I've no doubt in my mind that if they played this song live and nailed the whole thing it'll go down as one of the greatest performances in music history.
Me too brother let’s make that happen......ummm somehow
1 day
As they said themselves "nobody knows how "I" goes"...
If they performed this song live, the universe wouldn't survive
It would create a black hole as its so damn heavy
Insane. So advanced. Not just "different". They have created their own environment. That's very, very rare. And by their own environment, I don't mean "djent". Meshuggah is Meshuggah. Period.Peace.
The timing, the tripped out, almost mechanical sound of dissonance. Messuggah is definetly the original. They have been around since 91... long before djent. I think Messuggah started it. I think they do it best. It's their baby... I'm not hateing, I like em both. Just timeline'ing to provide context, to support my opinion. 🤘
@Bryce Thoman before djent terms, this always was Meshuggah 😊
@Bryce Thoman They've actually been around since 1987, There's Meshuggah and then there's Djent. Nothing sounds like Meshuggah. Nothing.
Perhaps thats why they made an album named Nothing.
@Bryce Thoman lol no djent is shitty generic whiny emo pop with 8 string guitar like Periphery. Meshuggah is not in the same genre as Periphery
7:25 is verging on Death Metal. Arguably Meshuggah at their most chaotic.
10:33 This riff is the most brutal thing ever created. Period.
Best riff ever. Outstanding
My pronounce are metronome /head now 😆
Sounds like Failed Creation by Divine Heresy
5:40 is possibly the fastest I've ever heard that polyrhythm, fucking sick!
1:55 and now back to your regular messhuggah programming.
Imagine going back to 1800 and playing this full blast in front of religious people.
Or even playing it to Jebus
you mean 1980?
This track was mixed and mastered by Lockheed Martin
Pramyth Abeysekera Underrated commente
Skunk works my guys
Lol
The drummer must be half dead by the time the song ends. Jesus Christ, how do they do all those patterns and shit?! It's beautiful, organized chaos created by musical genius.
I dont think they did, its all random, I cant find live versions either, makes it even more badass haha :p
Meshuggah drummer Tomas Haake said of the EP, "That whole track was
written and recorded just on random. Me and Fredrik would just jam on
something, and when we found something that was kind of cool, he would
walk into the control room. I would just record drums and it wasn't a
set pattern, I would just kind of stray away from the pattern, but just
keep going in that vibe. Then we had to chart everything and go bar by
bar to record the guitars afterwards, because it's all just random."
Source: Wikipedia - I (Meshuggah EP)
If they played this shit live, basically reality will collapse itself.
@iori Zechs
I think that would be a contradiction...
At least one of the members has said that it's never been performed live because no one in the band remembers how it goes due to this randomness.
Incoming djentcopter at 6:48
GET TO THE DJOPPA!
The propellers have three anvils tied to the end of each rotor. We don't know how it can take off the ground, it just does.
It's so heavy the planet takes off from it.
So fast it renders gravity non existent
HAHAHAHAHA
This is like describing the Big-Bang with 21 minutes of music
Tomas Haake: "Never skip leg day!"
Only difference is this shit really happened!
10:35 This may just be the most brutal shit i have ever heard in my life
+Elias Marklund 7:07 May be more brutal
+Official Redpanda +Elias Marklund lol you guys are funny, the best part of the song is right between the 2 times you're quoting and you don't mention it.
Fuck my opinion right in the ass
+Elias Marklund 7:47 is more brutal ever, and we don't talk about it anymore!
I feel like you haven't heard much music if you consider this 'the most brutal shit I have ever heard in my life'
From 0:00 - 21:00 is the best part of the song
+Brandon it was a joke bud
Blueskythinking how didn t you a understant it was a joke
😂😂😂
@@blueskythinking4745 r/wooosh
Agreed
i've tried listening to this with my lights off and closed eyes. best thing i've done so far
Try it after sharing a spliff with a friend, thats when your brain transforms into something you cant name :D
Welcome back
6:19 is just all-time. The fact that the riff is just one pitch, in unison, with its bludgeoning on/off simplicity, drenched in so much rhythmic dissonance that it's basically untranscribable. I can't believe I'm alive on Earth at the same time as Meshuggah.
It literally is "all time". All time that ever was, is, and will be.
They need to make the riff at 17:00 into a 10 hour song by itself..... that groove is WAAAAAYYYYY too good to be that short, it's over before I'm able to achieve climax.
that should be the riff when people ask what meshuggah is lol
DevastatingDave reminds me of Rational Gaze
Sounds a bit like the one breakdown out of "break them bones whose.."
DevastatingDave true
This riff is so heavy/groove that my brain is melting rn
It is literally impossible to not headbang at the part at 10:33
I gave myself a nosebleed with how hard it was making me head bang
The whole damn song brother
8:40 leading into that part, nice...
@@collincaperton6718 same fucking shit
"I wonder what goes on inside his head..."
My head: 1:32
Don’t see anything wrong with that. Just normal human behavior, no need to make a joke about it.
"he's always so silent, I wonder what he is thinking"
Him: how the fuck does I goes?
Playing this whole track perfectly note-by-note will produce the same effect as that of dividing by zero
Thank you for coming out tonight

I - got an Eargasm everytime.
2004, me and my whole band sat around getting blazed, and listening to this for the first time. So many rewinds, so many moments when we were just like "What the fuck? "Good memories. Great album.
Best track Meshuggah have ever composed.
totally!
Nik Them
Totally random
It’s up there, but clockworks or bleed would have to take the cake, but definitely top 3
@@smallshrimpin6939 I'm personally a sucker for these conceptual, random, borderline unreproducible opus magnums of songs. At least in Djent. But yeah, I can see those other songs banging hard too.
Psiloz fair enough,and I understand why, but I just personally like bleed a lot, same with clockworks, but it’s still a great song
I think Meshuggah may be the greatest extreme metal band of all time
The breakdown at 8:40 or so is
Truly epic
Less of a metal breakdown
And more of a mental breakdown
I feel like this is one of the breakdowns that actually have a pattern in it compares to the rest of the breakdowns.
@@filteredvitaminsubstance5302 i wrote it all out, it almost is completely a consistent pattern, it gets broken up a bit, but its the most uniform groove on this thing
This is that Devine lick from korn
This is like meditation for metalheads.. Just close your eyes listening to this and you've transcended the human form
7:07 one of the nastiest riffs I've ever heard. And that abrupt cut a minute later, christ alive! They were really on another level when they wrote this
The whole section from 5:40 up to that cut is just unreal. A pure unadulterated Blitzkrieg onslaught
Thordendal vibes
I was brushing my teeth to this..
now I only have gums left...
understandable
walker you been to the djentist?
@Zeppy no in first half of the song his teeth succumbed
10:33 - 11:45 well holy crap that's heavy
Well, found my new alarm clock
1:30
*0:00-21:00 fixed it for you.
2:55 absolutely Badass. Fredrik is such a Lead Monster.
The Sinister Haunted Moartea Of Melancholy Indeed. Btw, i'm dane from metal amino
fckin hell metallica aint heavy this guys are and Cannible Corpse
You know your usual 21 minutes song. Nothing too crazy
And just your regular intro break nothing to freak out about how the fuck did they récord that is it even possible Im good thank you
You need to listen to prog rock
This album cover on acid is something else, I love that the interpretation of this song is basically "A black hole went insane and destroyed the universe"
8:40 Sounds like what a Meshuggah cover of YYZ would be like.
Fuck I was wondering why that sounded kinda familiar lmao.
Lmao you right
I've been listening to this for years, but it's the first time I see the lyrics. This must be the only metal track in existence that features the word "semi-attached".
13:17 - 14:05 JESUS CHRIST, this part always had me punching everything in sight LOL. Meshugah for fucking ever.
16:57 has always been one of my favorite Meshugah rhythms of all time.
OGRE Dubs o
Musically the most complex part of the song..
11:31 when the tremelo comes in behind the pounding rhythm is one of the heaviest things I've ever heard.
Know this track now for 10 years, still sounds fresh.
schoenbaard is it really that old??
+eggo yep. released in 2004.
+schoenbaard And it still sounds fresh five month later!
This is the song of the century.
Still sounds like the future
This is a true work of art. I tried to listen to it last night and it made me feel genuine, deep terror. Arround 18 minutes I just couldn't take it anymore. It made me kinda paranoid, I started seeing movements in the dark and shit.
It's a masterpiece
-DGGB- meshuggah was on shuffle when I fell asleep with my headphones in and the later part of the song was playing when I woke up and I was terrified.
Something about it is just unsettling as fuck
How are y'all so terrified by this? I'm over here listening to this song at 6am because I can't sleep and I'm going through a bit of a stressful time but it's somehow making me feel better. 😂 I suppose it just depends on your mindset. If I was in more of a paranoid state of mind then it might creep me out a little bit, but I've definitely heard much creepier and unsettling stuff than this. I totally agree that it's a masterpiece though. 🤘🖤
@@_emilyelizabeth_ That's pretty much it yeah, perception depends on the current mindset ofc
This song soothes my soul. WTH you talking about?
Jesus Christ I could listen to this part 3:35 all day, everyday, all my life
i love the way that part develops, its fucking amazing
perfection
erection
i think is the best riff ever
i still haven't figured out the pattern there :p
16:58 is insane
My favorite part! The buildup into this is perfect
This part was my lifeblood in highschool. Really the whole album was a ridiculous piece of art that just happened to be the most brutal shit known to man. Meshuggah for LIFE.
Yes.
if meshuggah covered one by metallica
7 years later i came to comment this basically. what a fucking powerful sound
....pure meditation....
3:33 Has to be the most bone-crushing groove of all time
Meshuggah is death meshuggah is life no band can match their powers
My favorite as well. That loop around when it hits is 🤯
The Gates of Hell: *”W3LCOM3!!!”*
i'm just waiting for Meshuggah to announce that they will do a one time performance of I in its entirety as like a farewell show or anniversary performance.
Oh god hopefully not a farewell show, that would be awful
Just waiting for their new album.
@@smallshrimpin6939 Not anytime soon I hope, but there's gonna be a last show eventually. Would be a cool way to go out, and they would have plenty of time to figure it out and practice lol.
Hm, I hope Tomas can push through a song like this Live, if it ever happens.
Why is no one commenting on the riff from 12:00 to 13:14?? One of the most evil\underrated things they've EVER came out with IMO.....🤘PERIOD🤘
Yo for real!
Take a listen to DHG's Supervillain Outcast if you like music like that.
I mean they're ALL bangers, but THAT riff, makes me "wanna run towards the nearest living thing and kill it" Master Shake-ATHF 🤣
YES
It reminds me a lot of Fredrik Thordendal's Sol Niger Within
They make 21 minutes go by so fast. Brilliant. \m/
Usefule when you are bored in class
I was thinking the same the other Day.
I was like: its already finished? Its 21 min God damn it 😂
Probably the best metal song ever
This song explains why Meshuggah is my all time favourite band
This is enough to turn someone with severe anger issues into someone that doesn't get even slightly mad when dad comes back after 20 years from getting the milk
its normal to get that "more smart" feeling after hearing this adorable musicians?
If the bit at 8:30 doesn't make you jump, you're lying.
It doesn't make me jump, I actually time it perfectly when it comes in
DavieDrum98 Agreed. If you know its coming you can time it perfectly. Perhaps the first time you hear it though it comes out of nowhere. Because I play this on guitar and actively wait for it, there is no jump; only hair helicopters :P
the first time i heard it, my eyes just lit up, i didnt even flinch lol. I was like well damn
A good Meshuggah track isn't complete without jumpscares.
I just turned my volume down low, as to not shit myself, as, in fact, I’m a pussy ass bitch
I think 5:39 was my favorite part of the song. So intense and weird.
BitPuffin listen to it at 2x speed
I remember introducing one of my bandmates to Meshuggah with this around 15ish years ago. He wasn't a metalhead at all, but obviously I was. It was after jammin and smoking some bud that I played this.
At first, my buddy looked confused, but interested. Well, about 10 minutes or so into this, he had a full blown panic attack! Felt kind of bad, but couldn't help myself laughing to myself..
He hasn't listened to them since lol
Ahahaaahahah not everyone can handle meshuggah when they're high.
min 8-12.
This is what true headbanger's metal is. Such, such power in this song. I feel like dying in rage with my neck bleeding out.
Yi
10:33 The stank, it’s immaculate
How come this video only has under 500000 views? Ive watched this on repeat for 7 years.
Because we have a CD copy
7 years = 3681644 minutes
3681644 / 21 = 175316 views
Try harder
This was actually the first meshuggah song I ever heard. I was 15 or 16 at the time and, Im not kidding, was a completely different person the day after I first heard it.
Meshuggah is the only band that could write a 21 minute long breakdown and pass it off as a song. And I love it
After you've drilled a hole into the center of the earth and then finally make your way down there. This is what it sounds like. Pure creation of destruction. Phenomenal
The “I” in the Pixar logo hunting for the lamp.
its impossible to not to headbang to this 8:40
Well I'm glad I'm not the only person who thinks this part ROCKS
7:07 onwards to me is the soundtrack of a cosmic horror maelstrom. Like the sound of the universe erupting into pandemonium at Azagthoth's awakening before being devoured whole at 7:47.
5:40 is one of my favorite things in all music
Agreed. It's a total bombardment
When this song is over pizza will be ready
The god took billions of years to create universe and meshuggah did it in just 21 mins
these dudes r a fckng binary code...what a project..every album is a catharsys...
I wanna find the sheet music of this song, I just wanna look at it and just express my satisfaction to the human race for inventing such a clusterfuck of a song.
that would be pretty much impossible seeing as this is basically all randomized which is why you don't see them playing this live
You can actually on songsterr, not 100% correct though, for example it says triplets where it's actually 16th notes at 10:33
Progressive space groove djent.
Y E S
I just love the dedication, love and awe in the comments! Shout out to all metal heads
how bout a shout out to lovers of originality brother? I'm no metal head but Frederick and friends get my blue grass ass grooving
12:40 - 13:16 HOLY SHIT.
nothing is like meshuggah. they speak to you in many ways. this music has slot to offer. they are incredible.
This is #1 nastiest metal track in existence- pure madness= I - Meshuggah \m/
The best metal song ever written. Period. Nothing comes even close.
Devin townsend " we all are just trying to copy Meshuggah".
I still can't believe it's over...it's insane...
Meshuggah is the Berserk of Metal, pure and simple brutality
more like complex brutality lol
Meshuggah is a band made from five elements if one element leaves the band's power decreases
Never listened to meshuggah before and holy fuck, the drop at 1:43. I’ve just been born and I’m fucking wailing.
El tema mas brutal que he escuchado......De lo mejor...Meshuggah es sin duda el grupo con el mejor sentido actual del metal....estructuras trabajadas y complejas.....seguro que mas de uno tiene que hacer un plano mental para entenderlas....
I've only picked up Meshuggah in the last 12months, yet I still am amazed by their metronomic abilities.
Masterpiece.
This world was not ready for this ep when it came out. Even today the world is not ready. Even meshuggah cannot play this track live, but who the fuck could play this song without mistakes? Meshuggah have managed to play In Death Is Life live in it's entirety, which comes close to this masterpeice. So they are still undisputed kings of the genre they created. Shame their latest records don't quite hit this mark, but meshuggah are only humans, and like myself, they are only human, But they created something unworldly on this EP. I am forever in their debt.
Stop being so serious.
Smoke trees
Tree I feel Clockworks and other stuff from VSoR was groundbreaking and exciting
If you put Fredrik Thordendal, Ia Eklundh, Morgan Ågren and Kim Lantto in the same room, then I am sure they'd nail it within a day or two at the most.
Violent Sleep was amazing.
1:33 I dare you to play this at full volume.
always do mate
if you're not playing at full volume then why bother in the first place?
I wonder what’s got him in such a bad mood.
On a bass speaker
@@DJ-vg1pr the human race
OOOHHH MMMYYY GGGOOOSSSHHH!!
This song's very perfect & KICK ASS!! *Hands Down!!!*
I really damn fell off the chair at the first part of the lyrics.
Really damn mindblowing stuff!! Gonna spam this video everywhere now. Keep up the good work, M8. : D
EDIT: 1:32 - 21:00
this how uranium must feels In subatomic level - heavy
At 6:19 MY GOD!
A 21 minute rhythmic mindfuck.
you could pick favourite bits of it all night, but 14mins for a few mins is savage
Dear Neighbour, Thank you for complaining to the council about my dogs barking. I hope you enjoy The following selection from Meshuggah. It will be played at 11 until the complaining stops. Hopefully you cannot hear my dogs barking over it.
This is almost as epic as this song lol

Sounds like playing hot potato with a nuke
this is the go to music for instant drug free hallucinations. dont know if i want to approach this on mushrooms lol
I have me an my cousin straight tripped way to hard to this we freaked out so bad by the end we just threw the fuckin stereo out the window speakers and all I don't remember much after that from that night
wow!
I listened to this Masterpiece on LSD a couple of weeks ago. Absolutely fucking beautiful!
If I listened to this on shrooms or acid it would be the best high ever or I would die.
@@markk9184 Its really nice, if you aren't too overwhelmed by the acid it is nice song to listen too while tripping.
This is probably the sickest song I've ever heard. I love it from the first to the last note. I say "chapeau" to all the people who are able to enjoy this. And I would not condemn people who run away by just listen to a few seconds of this song. This music is mind blowing and mind fucking at the same time....
10:32
1:33 is the musical equivalent of the moment when everything flashes white during a nuclear explosion
Does anyone else realize that this is the soundtrack to a fucking black hole? Read the lyrics! \m/
When you come over the event horizon, Meshuggah appears and plays I.
Bob Jones as long as sam neill's face is out of the frame I'm okay with that.

And I bet you thought "Bleed" was heavy.
Bleed is fast heavy but i is the og
uno sguardo che sale lungo le mura esterne di questo bastione altissimo che si inerpica in forme geometriche inusuali e appuntite, con lampi di fiamme che ad intermittenza si innalzano dalle claustrofobiche finestre, urla e sermoni solenni che provengono da inimmaginabili entità riecheggiano forte nell'oscurità di un paesaggio che non vede l' alba da secoli----
a look that goes along the outer walls of this bastion that climbs high in unusual geometric shapes and sharp, with flashes of intermittent flames rising from the claustrophobic windows, shouting and solemn sermons that come from unimaginable entities resound loudly in the darkness of a landscape that does not see the dawn for decades
In breve: Barad Dur
OMFG... Th.e hilarity of the absurdity Absolute ridiculousness produced here. I know, most Meshuggah is like this in one way or another, but I felt the need to comment on this at the present moment. Thank you so much, Meshuggah!
5:39 is light speed metal. So fucking insane...and perfect.
have been listening to this song for few years now, haven't finished yet
