I love how Demiurge sounds quite simple (for Meshuggah, that is) but how this documentary shows just how much time they have had to put in it. Love the band, love the album, love the song, love the documentary!
Interesting to see they had a conversation on something ive always noticed about that song. The tempo is weird. Feels like it sounds better at 25%+ for me.
What I like : their path is not easy, and when they have "struggles" : they talk to each other. When I see them talk : I imagine a scene, with Vikings, discussing how to raid. Calmly and with no nonsense.
actually as a musician, not as successful as Meshuggah, when you get older and you work with older musicians, you can be like that, solving the struggles talking to each other and looking how to solve it together, when you are younger the anxiety to show yourself and your ideas can trigger a clash of egos, currently i'm 31 y/o and i was into band since i was 18, and when i've worked with guy of my age, when i was 22-23 years old we had tons of struggles that we were not going anywhere with it, adding the ego issues, but since last 4 years i been working with late 30's musicians and the struggles are solved pretty smoothly
@@santiagodepol6640 as someone who sometimes struggles with what you describe as ego-struggles, would you have any tips or methods to overcome that? I make music with a friend and I believe we both sometimes want to put in too much of our own 'uniqueness' in recording ideas and it causes some creative sessions to slow down or downright become unproductive. Do you have any advice, whether practical or philosophical? :p ty
Are you trying to create something which is beyond both of you, or are you both acting like solo artists trying to use each other to do 'your' thing and push your own agenda's? A way around this is to always have your own solo projects always going - that way if something does not fit the group project you still have an outlet to express yourselves and nothing is wasted. When you stop trying to make a project express an individual player/s it can take on an unexpected life of it's own that neither of you may have anticipated. For musical philosophy from our current age look into guitarist Robert Fripp who is a massive influence on TOOL and Meshuggah. Sometimes a piece of music needs one person to play the same line over and over for other players parts to really shine. The whole band wins. The song Kings and Queens by Killing Joke is a great example of the rhythm section just holding it down whilst the guitar and vocals bring their own tension, but if the rhythm section was trying to be busy and expressive it would lose the tension which they create. Hope you are achieving your individual and collective goals.@@wavewithus4081
Last Vigil is SO Beautiful... Takes mi mind and heart to a WARM PLACE Where I feel off this World... Just like ACRID PLACIDITY too... Meshuggah is in My heart Forever!!! Thank you guys for inspire my life with your Music... MUCH LOVE TO YOU ALL FROM CHILE 🇨🇱!!!
as i grew up i liked bands, gradually getting heavier and heavier, when i landed on meshuggah, there was no where to go, they are the only band, and the last band i will ever be a fan of. Nothing compares
i would love to see an album where it has no limits, no boundaries, something where the entire band doesnt have to panic about what they cant or can put in
The last Vigil sounds a lot like Tesseracts April. Amazing clean sounding 8-strings! Props to Meshuggah for keeping it as a last song and more than a minute long :D
o thank god they put the last vigil at the end and gave it a decent time, it one of my favorite songs ever!!! the calm after the storm- very reflective and introverted in feel :D
Love this band!! First time I saw them was in 1999!! Opened for Slayer!! Their opening song was Concatenation!! That pit opened up immediately!! The place erupted!! It was amazing!!
You're just proving my point. I'm making a comment on the way people think about their music. Meshuggah is one of my favorite groups for one main reason: that I actually understand and relate to the way they write their music, that it's about groove and the feel of the rhythms. People who try to "interpret" their music are people who don't understand it, and I feel sorry for them, because they think of Meshuggah as a "deathcore, mathmetal" band, when they are just virtuosos.
great to see some of these seminal tunes in construction, to appreciate how much goes into a track including debates about tempo. and to think that some of these takes ended up on demiurge...
Thanks for the great videos! Meshuggah's music is fantastic, their skills are fantastic AND: they are really likeable guys! That's, I think, not often the case. Great band.
A question might sometimes be asked as leading and to prove a point. It's kinda like what people with a depth in their thinking calls irony, but then again I wouldn't expect you to understand that.
Probably for show more than anything unless as it would be noisy from not being a symmetrical humbucker unless each of the three coils are summed specifically to do so.
hey i know someone replied already but definitely chorus and one crucial thing is to have a harmonizer, i believe its a 5th higher or lower, ive gotten a similar tone, nothing close though...
i think they should have put vigil before demiurge, demiurge amazing outro to the album but then last vigil just suddenly appears and feels really out of place
I am trying to figure out why the hell they would be using what seems a Philips moodlight in the middle of night in their studio? is the winter in the north that bad?
HEY LOOK GUYS THEY HAVE A METRONOME! AND GUESS WHAT IT'S SET TO?! 4/4!!!! LIKE EVERY OTHER GOD DAMN SONG THEY MAKE!!! STOP THINKING THEY ARE "MATH METAL" CUZ THEY ARENT! THEY ARE JUST RHYTHM CREATORS, AND MUSICAL PRODIGIES!
The last half of your comment was pretty ignorant. I (and most of the people who interpret and analyze this kind of music) enjoy the groove and the vibe, but we also like exploring what's going on behind the groove, analyzing how they do it, and (in my case) try to incorporate it into our own technique as musicians. There's nothing wrong with that.

the first time ive heard any of them speak in their native tounge...i feel like im watching ancient metal gods discuss the fate of the world
They are discussing what other bands will be ripping off for decades to come
@@metalheadblues not a bad thing, but the imitators will forever be left in the dust
Last Vigil is SO Beautiful... Takes mi mind and heart to a WARM PLACE Where I feel off this World... Just like ACRID PLACIDITY too... Meshuggah is in My heart Forever!!! Thank you guys for inspire my life with your Music... MUCH LOVE TO YOU ALL FROM CHILE 🇨🇱!!!
Whatever Marten is doing at 3:43 is so beautiful!
the last song of koloss if your wondering
The last Vigil
Damn, I want one of those Dolphins. Such an aesthetically appealing bass.
i want his mindset,approach n fingers......the bass will sound good even on a basic model
@@rajeshhkkapoor8549 wow so deep bro
jk anyone can have the mentality. Just get up and work at it. Lol
as i grew up i liked bands, gradually getting heavier and heavier, when i landed on meshuggah, there was no where to go, they are the only band, and the last band i will ever be a fan of. Nothing compares
me too, dude
Same
Fractalize has sure outdone yet stayed as good as meshuggah is.
100% agreed
Absolutely 100% agree
I liked so much when they were talking to each other at 6:54, it's so interesting to see them trying to be on the same page!
Man... I'd totally listen to a full album of Mårtens' clean noodlings. That was amazing.
i would love to see an album where it has no limits, no boundaries, something where the entire band doesnt have to panic about what they cant or can put in

I wish The Violent Sleep of Reason had a song like Last Vigil. Koloss is probably my favorite album of theirs :)
@@thewildhealer541 stifled?
it's always a true privileged to see your favorite bands in studio
MESHUGGAH for me is subtle madness.
oh thank you dear Meshuggah for leaving the Last Vigil in the album and leaving it as long as it is. Would be sad if it were a minute long :))
That rythm is sick of these guys like how the hell do they fit that together is just master level handling the guitar/drums/bas...
4:42 how the discuss this epic part of the album, and then seeing it being played almost brought tears to my eyes. Just incredible.
i love how some parts 'get' unplayable if you fuck up the tempo but the poor haake has to learn them fucked up 4/4 measures messing your inner soul
Meshuggah is a gift to mankind
Thanks for these 2 videos up!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love this band!! First time I saw them was in 1999!! Opened for Slayer!! Their opening song was Concatenation!! That pit opened up immediately!! The place erupted!! It was amazing!!
Thanks for vid. Meshuggah writes history.
Meshuggah are such good communicators, to the media but also to each other.
favorite band since 1998! ...and im 28 now :-)

how beautiful is swedish language, especially when it souns from such structured guys
0:34 WAIT WHAT. I would sell a nut to watch him build a riff like that
I love how wide that snare sounds
i love their mannerisms, so different to Australians(me). There is no argument, they just say what they think and work together.
czr7j9 It’s the Swedish consensus culture.
Actually I saw an interview where Marten was saying how lucky they were to have met since they all "wanted to do the same exact thing."
@@linusfotograf nope. It's european culture
@@BlackHeart_RUclips_Channel Not all European countries strive for consensus.
It's a Scandinavian thing
6:55 LOL Marten's inner caveman is so powerful on Demiurge everyone thinks the song sounds too slow.
amazng stuff! that clean guitar thing sounds incredibly a lot like April from Tesseract
great to see some of these seminal tunes in construction, to appreciate how much goes into a track including debates about tempo. and to think that some of these takes ended up on demiurge...
is no one going to talk about the triple coil pickup at 2:58?
Koloss has the heaviest metal bass tone ever, it fckin sounds like an electric water motor on loop
fuckin awesome. I am so glad music has Meshuggah to take care of it.
Thank god for the subtitles! Or thanks to the uploader actually.
5:20 guitar wearing a drum pedal t-shirt. that's how good CzarcieKopyto is!
Or tomas gave it to him lol
Fredrik is a drummer as well
god damn time flies
djentlemen
respect
passion
no drama
just gods going about their business
This is very cool...!
Я с 96 года слушаю, МешугА, не подрожаемо!
Thanks for the great videos!
Meshuggah's music is fantastic, their skills are fantastic AND: they are really likeable guys! That's, I think, not often the case.
Great band.
Oh my sweet lord Cheesus in heaven. 2:33 8-string baritone Iceman on the wall...... I want. I want...
BigKyleTX fuck. Me too buddy
It's great that they work digitally, but I would love to hear how it would sound if they'd do everything with analog gear.
Violent Sleep of Reason
Immutable is analog
I’m so use to jens English but it’s awesome to hear his Swedish
This is really cool
👏👏👏👏
I’ve always imagined when Dick will have a bass tuned to low F until the recent album with d#
7:20 - 5 октября )))
Cubase/Nuendo click....niiiiiiice!
The 17/8 rhythms may be played on guitar as 17/8 laid over a 4/4 drum beat. Meshuggah likes polymeter.
Love the Minnesota Wild jersey around the 7:00 minute mark
This is great. Is there Part 1, though?
A question might sometimes be asked as leading and to prove a point. It's kinda like what people with a depth in their thinking calls irony, but then again I wouldn't expect you to understand that.
sorry i have been working a lot lately, im uploading it right now.
Probably for show more than anything unless as it would be noisy from not being a symmetrical humbucker unless each of the three coils are summed specifically to do so.
De ä bar å åk.
cubase vst's for everything my friend
0:59 *If there is any chance, I would love to buy one of their personal guitars hanging on the wall.*
2:36 I wonder what they used that triple-coil pickup for.
Så jävla hårda! Varenda en! haha
hey i know someone replied already but definitely chorus and one crucial thing is to have a harmonizer, i believe its a 5th higher or lower, ive gotten a similar tone, nothing close though...
5:17 czarcie kopyto T-shirt nice to see some Polish thing on the video :)
This video should be the Go-to for that riff in Demiurge that everyone plays wrong
fucking great album
ye
Most bands create songs by going with the emotions.
Meshuggah does it as if they were constructors of some highly technical super machine...
That bass player's tone, though
This may be a stupid answer but I think its when the pickups have been wound three times, hence three layers. I could be so wrong though.
HOLY CRAP THAT SLOW RIFF SOUNDS LIKE APRIL BY TESSERACT!!!
interesting how they have the monitor speakers set up wrong.
I want that poster/posterlikething in the background at 7:04 so bad.
3:42 anyone know how to get that tone? I know it's based off of an effect but the name of it escapes me
Lol yu-gi-oh in the related videos. That show was the jam when it came out in america. Meshuggah will send you to the Shadow realm lol!
at 0:04 i think he meant to say "whatever we do sounds good"
i think they should have put vigil before demiurge, demiurge amazing outro to the album but then last vigil just suddenly appears and feels really out of place
Sakeroz I think the last vigil on album is nothing compared to the version on this movie. Where's that goosebump bass ?!
And who are you to decide what is music "per se"?
5:01
What software is using to edit the sound? Does anyone know?
0:42 i got you
People must know
This is the most swedish thing ever
Can somebody please tell me what riff/song that is at 5:25??
I am trying to figure out why the hell they would be using what seems a Philips moodlight in the middle of night in their studio? is the winter in the north that bad?
HEY LOOK GUYS THEY HAVE A METRONOME! AND GUESS WHAT IT'S SET TO?! 4/4!!!! LIKE EVERY OTHER GOD DAMN SONG THEY MAKE!!! STOP THINKING THEY ARE "MATH METAL" CUZ THEY ARENT! THEY ARE JUST RHYTHM CREATORS, AND MUSICAL PRODIGIES!
I could be way of the mark but, to me, it sounds like a mix of chorus, delay and echo over a clean tone.
You are.
guys know notes, that's cool
what software is this 5:37
hey man, why don't you use Guitar rig 5? try it.
What would you even use it for?
Konstrukting the koloss? Thought they were playing mortla kombat :v

Engineering music
Czercie Kopyto t-shirt, lol
Είναι καταπληκτικοί.
Лол! Афиша с выступления в России висит. Неужели так понравилось им у нас?)
vodka will not solve the problem
Progressive metal"
what song is that at 1:26?
Demiurge.
