    Love this album. Had the 33 shirt on a day at Yellowstone years ago, and when i was to pay for some snacks at the General store at Mammoth hot springs, the lady behind the counter started laughing at me. Turned out she was jewish, and since meshuggah means crazy/insane in yiddish it made sense.. Anyways, lovely lady.

    46:41 is what the end of the Meshuggah journey feels like. I had the same reaction the first time I heard that part! It doesn't hit as hard unless you listen to the rest of the album beforehand, but it's always worth it. I'll always believe that, between the entire setup to that point, the lyrical content, and the riff itself, it's the most mind-numbingly heavy thing ever made.
    Glad you finally got around to this! I can't wait to hear what they bring with their next album, whenever that may be.

    Finally, my favourite album. This was my first Meshuggah Record back in 2005. I could'nt believe that 8 String Guitars were a thing back then. Remember folks, this record came out long before Djent was even a thing. There was nothing remotely similar to this. Thank you for digging into the rabbithole even further. I never thought a youtuber would even dare to tackle the entire album. You deserved it. Keep rockin

    • @timothydog76
      @timothydog76 2 года назад +6

      The 8 strings really showed up even before that when they made Nothing in 2002. For Nothing they started using 7 string guitars but using the top 7 strings of an 8 string guitar. But they did eventually get 8 string guitars made for them by Nevborn (I think). To some of us real old-head Meshuggah fans, the term "djent" really means something else. :) We weren't calling Nothing and Catch 33 "djent" at the time. The term originally came from the guitar sounds that came from the None and DEI albums where they used heavy palm muting on chords and made this huge "djent" sound. It has since evolved into a whole genre which is associated with really tuned down 8 string guitars and has taken on a different meaning.

    • @CrzyWzrd4L
      @CrzyWzrd4L Год назад +1

      @@timothydog76 The original release of Nothing had standard scale Ibanez 7 strings tuned down to F Standard. Meshuggah weren’t super happy with the guitar tone, and shortly after their Nevborn 8 strings came in. They re-recorded all of the guitars on baritone 8 strings and Fred remixed the record. That’s why the re-release guitars so much cleaner and brighter.

    @Diesel_Budgie 2 года назад +55

    Also, a bit of trivia for this album.
    Because they kept changing the rhythms and riffs so much while writing the album, it was impossible for Haake to learn everything in time to record. So for the first and only time, most of the drumming on the final cut was programmed using Meshuggah's own highly refined software (I forget the name), using Haake's samples of course. They actually write or develop most of their music in programming first anyway, so it was by far the easiest route (and it still sounds amazing).

      i loved it from the moment i first heard it. but i was a huge stoner back then. also, i think after listening to it (easily) 100+ times.. the recurring riffs kinda get bit old. still a great album though and one that definately broadend my horizons.

    For me it's always the part at 51:50 that gets me. This album is a monumental masterpiece, especially for it's time. I was first drawn to it shortly after it's release because of it's cool album art, but i was a wee lad and couldn't compute this music until years later. I didn't really like it at first but somehow kept coming back to it - then all the sudden it reaaally clicked...

    Catch-33 is something special. The song structure, tone and general atmosphere is a masterclass of songwriting. The album also matches it's concept perfectly. From In Death - is life to the end of the album specifically is probably my favorite piece of music ever written. I remember ripping this album from Kazaa when it came out and had never heard anything like it. Listening to it semi-regularly throughout the years has only made me appreciate it more.

    Didn't know thomas haake did a vocal part on this, but i think he did it on "mind's mirror"
    Also for the programmed drums, they said that during the reccording process, they keep changing the riff/tracks every times so to avoid Thomas learning new riff every day, they made the drums with a drum machin call "drumkit from hell" wich is basically 600 sample from Thomas drums. and at the end, they keep it cause they though the sound was good

    Just a side note. As I understand it, with "one long song" albums like these, the main reason they split the piece into so many smaller tracks is so that the album can still qualify as an album and not an EP (which earns reduced revenue in many cases). I think artistically, Meshuggah would have wanted to put the record out as one long piece of music, like "I".

    • @02SplinterCell02

    I really really like the piece of music at 35min. Its like a morbid woozy walk though a nightmarish nocturnal landscape from a horror movie. An eerie lucid dream of melted memories and painful premonitions. I think too, it sounds both super chilled out like your floating aimlessly in haunting deep space, or underwater in a deep icy abyss. Its very cinematic, haunting, and evoking. I appreaciate the heavier side of the band, but that creepy interlude was it for me.
