When I listen to Meshuggah I think of little fuzzy bunnies and happy deer prancing through the forest on a brisk autumn day. The serene guitar picking of the band inspires happy childhood memories like sipping hot coco on a blustery winter day curled up by a roaring fire in a warm sweater.
Most other bands speed up their tempo when they play live but I love how Meshuggah slows theirs down...it adds so much more to the heaviness of the song.
created wayyyyy before 2005, find something else.. add the fact if their were camera, it was for a dvd version of the concert... pretty sure they weren't filming this dvd in 360p.
You do realize that most DVD had a screen resolution inferior to 360p, right? While full HD resolution existed around 2005 (only available to big movie studios, by the way), there's hardly any chance that this video comes straight from the raw camera feed, which means it's most likely a downscaled source meant for TV broadcasting. Want HD? Then go ask for the original masters.
Meshuggah, indisputably among the most innovative and important bands in metal history… their polyrhythmic grooves revolutionizing metal from the 2000s onward and influencing countless others…. is playing the “Snickers Stage”.
If this is the best I'd hate to hear the worst.... I had never listened to Meshuggah before today and now I know what hell must sound like (this isn't meant to be a compliment, either)
I've always appreciated this song, but it keeps getting deeper. It's rare that I appreciate the whole span of a bands contribution, but I like their early stuff and their current stuff. I can't get enough. I hope the 2016 album is awesome.
Trashware I just watched the video. Felt weird looking at people in front of 140 dB speakers without anything to reduce the noise. Because you know, hearing is a thing musicians sort of need. Unless you're Beethoven.
Everytime I listen to this song while high, I always had visions of the future being like "The Terminator", but more down to earth, just like the song (sort of) says: "our evolution into full integration of human machine..." we all know it's going to happen at some point. It's inevitable, we need the tech in order to speed our old software which is just too slow evolving on it's own to keep up with times, computer humanoids with downloaded consciousness/personalities/Human experiences are inevitable.
I believe that there is no band heavier than Meshuggah - this is just awesome. I love the bit where they go from sounding like Al Di Meola from the 70s to one of the heaviest passages of music ever from about 2.30.
Please for the love of god DON'T TRY HEADBANGING TO THIS. I did a few hours ago and i'm writing to you now from the hospital. I'm a quadriplegic now and have to live my life in a wheelchair. All the bones in my neck are dust. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
most people dont need to understand lyrics to enjoy a song...especially fans of metal with growling vocals which obviously aren't intended to be understood, for the most part. This band does an excellent job using vocals as a rhythmic instrument as well as to create intensity and severity in the music. If your only way to enjoy the sound of the vocals is to know the lyrics, then you can have them in front of you while listening, and it's really easy to follow along.
I hate it when the camera moves so much and the second solo was not even shot when he was moving it all the time here and there but not the one playing the solo.
"we have multiple camera's, let's use them all at thesame time!!"
lmao
Can't stop laughing
And not film the solo!
Shane EXACTLY! ARRRRGH!
***** I swear, happens every fucking time
Tell the editor to fucking chill, jesus. I can appreciate the breakdown without having an epileptic seizure in the process.
Zach Eagan Watching this gave me a headache. And it wasn't the music...
Their Grooves niggah. Go listen to Attila or for the fallen dreams for breaks downs.
He was way into it, couldn't control himself. The metal was too powerful
go to a meshuggah show, you'll get a seizure there anyway regardless lmaoo
It's not the editor, this is just footage the director is cutting the cameras.
I have the beginning of this song as my alarm. Best idea I ever came up with.
Haha this is a greath idea !
Me too. Second alarm, for if first one gets snoozed or turned off. Nobody sleeps through it. Ever. Harrowing....
@@AzraelBlackstar first alarm brr brr deng
This is the second alarm
Jajajajajsjjaja
Dude what me too I've been using it since forever, it's perfect
Given that no one mentioned it, the bass tone here is absolutely killing.
Blows my mind this is 2005.. they are so far beyond their time it’s unbelievable. Such a major influence on what metal and the “core” sub genres are today.
and it was released 10 years before that, bringing the 7 string influence to bands like Nevermore... crazy!
The Dillinger Escape Plan alike but unlike at the time.

me too! Especially when driving. It makes all the drivers and my wife in the passenger seat especially freak out. I like to hit things.

reminds me of big booty hoes

Mango Kush you have literally no fucking clue what you're talking about. DVD resolution is 480p and in 2005 1080i/720p was everywhere.
The album version is cool and all, but this performance and the 2019 Summer Breeze version are perfect live renditions of this awesome track.
My thoughts exactly.
1:01 some sick guest vocals from James hetfield
Oddly enough, their older stuff sounded like a slightly heavier Metallica
Not odd at all. Those are their origins.
Underrated comment
Saw them at Bloodstock 2023 a few weeks ago and they closed with this 🤘🏻 definitely a song that stands the test of time
I knew they've said the lighting person is the 6th member but the camera seems to have wanted to be the 7th! 😂
1:58 is one of the greatest moments in the history of Djent
those backing vocals might be the most intense and brutal ever heard by any metal listening ear in history
I didn't have epilepsy but now I do
Fredrick's solos defy the concept of scales...and I love them...
I honestly think 3:34 is the heaviest riff ever written
4:02 Meshuggah feat. Lil Wayne
@Normal Person me too! I don't get why they skipped it :_(
Meshuggah, indisputably among the most innovative and important bands in metal history… their polyrhythmic grooves revolutionizing metal from the 2000s onward and influencing countless others…. is playing the “Snickers Stage”.
It took 30 years but they are finally getting the recognition they deserve
Watching Meshuggah live has to be one of the greatest experiences of my life
can not get over the breath controller use on this performance, so fantastic.
MESHUGGAH, the monster of imperfect untimely made music\m/
Indeed......\m/.
Man Underground not imperfect,it's just odd time signatures
Man Underground This isn't music anymore this is math...But its badass kicking math
Disturber93 yes it is music, just complicated mathematical music
***** I was just kiddin
I love this song and of cource this is music as well !
I love hearing Jens sing the older songs with his new, more refined technique. Sounds great!
That guitar tone is just nuts.. 1000% brutality
This is the best I've heard Meshuggah live. Back when they used real amps and blew everything away like a nuclear bomb.
They were using digital amps here.
+Gigerian Oh shit you're right. I would've thought they were miking cabs at least but they're using Line 6 Vettas straight into the PA.
KEK
If this is the best I'd hate to hear the worst.... I had never listened to Meshuggah before today and now I know what hell must sound like (this isn't meant to be a compliment, either)

fucking adrenaline still pumping after watching this 3 times.

..these guys are in the top three most skilled bands ever. Maybe four. Meshuggah, Primus, Tool, Zeplin
+Patrick Brewer Primus sucks.
+Patrick Brewer where is dream theater? if you dont know them seriously look them up
Forgot Pink Floyd. But yes, every single member in all those bands is extremely talented.
Paynus Vajonas one extreme talented before theyre time sleeper band is living colour

Had an epilepsy episode, continued watching in the hospital.
after the solo when they miss the distortion, fits in exactly like a glove!

best swedish metalband of all time
I miss the breath controller guitar solos. Fucking awesome!!!
Oh! So that's what they're called. All this time I'd been thinking it was a talk-box.
Tooki Guy He is using a custom talk box, not exactly the same (according to the interview I read) some home brew shit Fredrick came up with

OK, that's just... beyond hardcore.

he now uses something called the Pigtronix Mothership
HaProductions01 Ah, thanks!
the backing vocals are killer!

Other guy: yep.
*bumps line of cocaine*
There are no genres, there are only bands! every band is unique in it's own way
Editor: How much editing do you want for this video?
Meshuggah: Yes.
Wow, now that's how you put on a show, they sound amazing live !!!!
DESTROY. ERASE. IMPROVE.
Sounds like socialism.. :)
Was there that day. It's as amazing to listen back to as it was at to hear at the time. Incredible performance.
Jen’s stage antics are primal asf
Learning to play guitar, I have more respect and appreciation for bands like this. They're true musicians.
The best band on the planet and any other planet/exoplanet we know of currently.

being a not so new Meshuggah fan and having epilepsy, I'm having the time of my life right now
props to Marten for using a seven during this tune
I saw them way back with TOOL and again with Ministry in Tulsa in a tiny club. Fucking brutal! Seriously thought I was going to die!
