When you showed your face during Riff #4 and said "if your face doesn't look like this you should see a doctor" I was making the EXACT face without even realizing it.
Saw this comment before watching, was prepared not to make the face when riff 4 started, but that rhythm change riiiight before yogev points out the face brought me to my knees
I've watched a lot of "deciphering odd time signature" videos, and none of them have been as informative, entertaining and straight-up educating as your ones! Thank you, Yogev!!

This video let me go from taking hours to learn just one of the riffs to getting the whole song playable (guitar) within about 2 hours. The visual breakdowns are superb
i love how humble he is. i think his genius comes from his "limitations" as he is _technically_ not that complex, but instead works around odd time sigs and bar pushing by simplfying it down to a count similar to the way this is described. in an interview he once said that he is counting very simply and i guess all the extra notes are played almost subconsciously. what amazes me is the way he maintains such power and heavy strokes, there are no ghost notes, only full strokes. its all about the patterns
Dude you're awesome. It is unbelievable all the work you have, didactic and still with humor. I would like to find more videos like yours. Cheers from Brazil
Took me about 2-2.5yrs, that was about 3 yrs back, but I still haven't listened to their entire discography, I still don't consider myself to be well equipped to understand all
Clockworks was one of those songs I couldn't really enjoy until I watched this video explaining the madness and once I could wrap my head around the riff I could enjoy it.
I've been listening to them for 6 years I heard bleed and clockworks for 5 fucking years until i gave up AND listened to every album❤❤❤❤ i cant get enough now Now everything needs moreshuggah Now i am fucking insane if i dont listen to them😂 Really they are an acquired taste!
watch out for headphone thief at 14:17!! Love your videos. Super entertaining and "easy" to follow. The amount of work you put into this really shows, man!
I love your videos man, adore you're editing style and laughed my head off at "if your face doesn't look like this" - i am a huge meshuggah fan, and i think this might be my favourite song - certainly one of my top 3 especially to play on the drums and let off some steam
When you break down the song and see what's going on inside it makes a band I already thought was amazing even more amazingerest! Great work! Subscribed!
Brilliant! Subscribed. Thank you for your content. I realise now I'm listening in 'low resolution' compared to Yogev. Just great 10:03 I vote for 'Do Not Look Down'.
Absolutely love the presentation and appreciate the dedication and work it took to make these videos! Seriously top-tier content and I can't get over how I'm floored every time I watch a new video! Thanks, Yogev!
Hey I really like that you tap along with the pattern of the song. I know music is an auditory thing, but it’s so much easier for me to learn things through visual indicators. Really good work! I look forward to May.
You sir, deserve a medal! The massive bomb at 10:02 is pure badassery! What a killer riff! Awesome video! ❤ Edit: MAYshuggah? 😂 MAY the shuggah be with us all!
Dude, such a nice and thorough breakdown. I usually just brute force my way trough these songs and try to figure out the cycles via repeated air-guitar sessions and it works - but your visualizations help a lot! In fact, I also group certain parts of Meshuggah songs together and count those. It's really funny to confuse other people and musicians with your own numbered understandings 😁
Great video, as usual! I’d love to see the next Meshuggah video about Lethargica, especially the outro. It’s extremely catchy, but the way in which the riff rotates around a steady 4/4 beat is absolutely amazing 🥲
Getting here pretty late, not one to comment often, just watching, but dude, have to say it- you helped me fall In love with Meshuggah even more. Been listening to them for about 15 years now, and as I understand their music more I enjoy them more. Your videos and Meshuggah series helped me see their music in another way, and thus enjoying it more. They helped me a lot during the reserve since October 7th. Ain't nothing like falling asleep to Meshuggah. Godamn man, thank you! And while we're at it, I'd love to see more Meshuggah songs, pretty much all of them are worthy, but Lethargica would be epic for me.
Man, I appreciate this comment so much. I also use Meshuggah when times are tough, and since Oct 7, it's been intense. People killed, my parents under rockets, my brother in reserves, the whole deal. Stay strong brother, I'm super super happy you enjoy the video !
Dude this has so much work put into, it's amazing! Love the Host / Guest analogy. Been waiting for so long to see something so well dissected like this and I hope people realize that this is genius level analysis!
Thank you so much ive been figuring out some of my favorite songs but you just make it seems so easy and it makes sense with the illustrations. Pretty cool my bday month will be meshuggah month since they’re one of my fave bands. Just subscribed looking forward to it
Dude, your videos are so great, you inspired me to write my bachelors thesis about meshuggah and analyse their polyrhythmic structures. Keep it going man!
watching this makes it sooo much easier to learn on guitar, because its not the memorizing different notes, its understanding the rhythms that makes it difficult, something tabs cant show you.
Dude thank you SO much for this; I started listening to it with the intention of learning it; realized I had NO idea what was actually going on, and brought up this video and started listening to your explanation before I even touched the tablerature.
Excellent. Absolutely excellent! Add car bomb, dillinger escape plan and tool to your band list for some future analysis. Loving the idea of Mayshuggah! Great stuff!
I don't even play the drums but I'm absolutely addicted to your videos. Very clear and informative, even for someone like me who understands very little about drumming
Dude, the amount of effort you do for these videos is just unimaginable. Thanks for doing the hard work on our behalf. Oh, and the monthly Meshuggah slot and Mayshuggah, we'll certainly watch out for those. Kudos, Yogev. You're the man.
Ελα ελα παμε λιγο! I was listening to the new Meshuggah teaser and your channel popped up. I'm so glad YT decides to sometimes be good. Great content you got there! I'm going to binge watch. Greetings from Greece!
I love this song, but it has always confused the absolute shit outta me. What a fantastic video this is! Great visuals, super clear explanations. Cheers man
It's seems complicated even with colorful circles and numbers. It's feels like I've never be able to headbang with this song in a right way. Thanks Yogev! It was wonderful!
Only just come across your channel and this is a fantastic way of explaining it all. I love the very visual way you're doing it. Excellent work! Look forward to checking out some other videos. Also, I was definitely making that face 🤘
Me: trying to count with my fingers
My wife: upset thinking I’m having a stroke
😂😂😂
You don't have enough fingers......
😺
When you showed your face during Riff #4 and said "if your face doesn't look like this you should see a doctor" I was making the EXACT face without even realizing it.
That only means you're an excellent human being and your emotional responses to Meshuggah are all correct!
I showed this song to my mother and she was doing the same thing!
Literally, same face. Meshuggah bringing the stank faces through time
Saw this comment before watching, was prepared not to make the face when riff 4 started, but that rhythm change riiiight before yogev points out the face brought me to my knees
That's called the lip out nod face which is reserved exclusively for monster mid paced metal riffs
At least we know that the Clock Works

Yes but they tend to stay away from stochastic processes...

i saw my reflection when he said it and laughed so hard
Riff 4 is one of the best things I have ever heard in all of my 37 and a bit years on the earth. It is absolutely amazing.
Today I learned: converting a 6-string guitar to an 8-string guitar means you draw a couple of extra lines and ovals.
You know at some point you'll have to talk about the 24-minute song because there is none left :D
You mean the none EP?
@@bsatyam I think it was I, even though it is "only" 21 minutes long.
@@DocteurZeuhl I know about 'I'. I was referring to 'because there is NONE left' -> None EP... #facepalm
Look.

You're right.
@@YogevGabay Do it, you won't do it.
I can't believe it took me 10 years to finally like Meshuggah. Their grooves are so good and so brutal.
Just like me ! But after 10 years of music study, I finally get a brain equipped with enough RAM to fully appreciate M E S H U G G A H !!! 😍
Took me about 2-2.5yrs, that was about 3 yrs back, but I still haven't listened to their entire discography, I still don't consider myself to be well equipped to understand all

Really they are an acquired taste!

@@YogevGabay She had to give that track another listen from how confusing yet amazing it is.
Dancers to a discordant system for one of the months pls!! That rotary riff is driving me crazy
You mean the verse riff?
This might sound weird but there's a piano cover on yt and seeing it played on piano from above the keys really helped me to learn it
@@bsatyam The riff from 4mn09s to 4mn40s, with the half time snare, is awesome.. I always loose the pulse !

Monthly Meshuggah!? Wooo. I hope you eventually get to the intro to Swarm.
Or Do Not Look Down. I told my dad that both songs intros were a 21st century version of Led Zeppelin's Misty Mountain Hop and he got it
you are the type of channel one doesn't skip ads on so you get more cash money.
