Fucking facts. I literally bought an 8 string immediately when I found meshuggah 2 months ago. Made me a better player and gave me a better ear thanks to these guys. Best fucking piece of art
overall I would say the influence of thrash in their early music is pretty transparent, and it was probably the vision of the band coupled with that influence that created their sound; whether or not they were influenced by early groove metal like pantera or not is hard to know, but by 1997 groove metal was in full swing, from machine head to fear factory, so there were certainly bands that sounded similar in terms of drumming, vocals, and riffs, even if there was not exactly the same emphasis on being mathematical. however, when none (the EP most of the songs from this set are from) originally came out in 1994? yeah, there was no one quite like them lmao, i mean just listen to the solos; it's crazy to me how early they were doing practically the same things they ended up being known for like ten, twenty years later~
Holy shit, is this Barry Kotarba of Scitna and Boatman’s Toll fame? I feel like it’s unlikely there’s a surplus of Barry Kotarbas runnin around out there.
Yep except there's nothing agonizing about it....... We know Jens puts himself through catharsis every night and that is something beautiful and a!axing that I can dig and feel to help myself thank you jens!!!!
As a drummer, I’m always impressed with Haake. As impressed as I am with him, though, I always wonder if Jens is actually doing the hardest job up there. His timing is unbelievable. The drums eventually end up making sense to me. The vocals are on a different level of weird timing, though.
Nah lol sadly they're so underrated that alot didn't know about them till recently seems like in the states anyways, No ones ripping off anyone there are 0 original ideas anyways so technically everything could be considered a rip off
In the last several years, whenever I “discover” a band that I like eg. Opeth, Avatar, Messhugah, and Thundermother, they invariably end up being Swedish. As a Canadian I’ve always felt a kinship with Sweden even though I don’t know any personally. Must be the universal healthcare care, hockey, and great music.
Future Breed Machine.... one of Metals best tracks ever. This band was ahead of their time. Saw them in '99 for the first time... fan ever since. GREAT video!
actually the BEST quality live video from the 90s i've ever seen is Marilyn Manson Live at Bizarre Festival 1997 (no comparison to meshuggah though lol).
on another note how is the mix this fucking good, so many people don't understand how hard it is to mix live...much less have it mixed well when you're doing it. all things considered this is AMAZING sound quality for LIVE. you're literally put into the picture here in 1997 Meshuggah and it's just brilliant. That's all I can say.
Well put. I love meshuggah, and usually me and Vincent would be happy with some freeze dried tasters choice, but he springs this serious gourmet shit on us
@@123612100 I would say he means more the combo of heavy chug chug but still technical and clever like the optimisation of head bang chug meets technical proficiency and ideas.
@@123612100 “Heaviness” is kind of subjective but as far as heavy bands who are also technical, the rhythmic complexity had gotten to ridiculous levels, really only other “djent” bands compare, like Animals As Leaders, Intronaut, CB Murdoc, etc. bands like Cattle Decapitation, Nile, etc, don’t go to that rhythmic level. Even Dream Theater or The Dillinger Escape Plan…constantly changing time signatures is “easier” than the whole band working polymetrically. That’s how Meshuggah can be so technical and yet almost never losing the heaviness. (Also, the rhythms on their early work are elementary compared to later work.)
This is the Meshuggah I fell so deeply, madly, eternally in love with all those many, many years ago! 🤘❤️❤️❤️🤘 Most people today have no fucking clue as to how INSANE this kickass, monster of a band was back then! Still is! Most people back then actually had no idea either! 😵💫🙌❤️
I saw them in 1998 here in Cincinnati I bought destroy erase improve on cassette about a year earlier because the cover art looked cool haha that was a brutal moshpit those were good days
Man I wish we could get this version of Meshuggah back for one more album like DEP. Even just one more song that has that unique sound of panic that they just never captured again once they started to lean exclusively into groovier, slower tempos. Not a knock on their legacy or anything like that, just BADLY wish they still had this panic mode in them.
People generally don't understand just how much work goes into getting a band to sound like this or Between the Buried and Me. Every time they put something out, I am absolutely stunned at how much work went into it just based on the sound quality alone. Incredibly impressive.
The reason why this band will always be relevant is because they have several things happening at once. They are connected to the past, so it's not about the brain, it's about the body - all the concerts you see people banging and doing what metal fans do. 2) I hear funk (first band listed as influence on this album was Earth Wind and Fire), I hear fusion, I hear metal. The riffs are not about math, like Hägstrom says in an interview. They have truly found something genuine. I look at them in this footage and see how connected to everything that came before them, and yet they forge a new path for themselves. NOBODY touches this band. Absolutely no one.
" If ya didn't know, well'a now ya know!" Incredible band...Incredible sound...Incredible time...Incredible video quality...Incredibly thankful we all can bask in the power of metal..!!
This is a really great quality video. These guys are just so badass when ever you hear them no matter what album it is you are listening to. One of the greatest bands of all time. In a class all by themselves still to this day.
I mean, even if you're not into metal. You can't deny talent, skill, performance, this show is on another level of showmanship and what a "tight" band should sound like. Even the interlude soundscape the guitars are creating are brilliant. Great mix too, whoever mixed this show should be credited here.
Thanks for the upload I had to wait 20 years to catch these guys and finally caught them last year. Show was amazing. Anything with Shuggah in it is ballin.
I’ve been a huge fan just over 20 years… 1997 good grief this concert sounds and looks amazing. Even for metal bands in this day and age (2022) it’s absolutely so rare to see bands achieve this level of musicianship. Soul Burn is still 1 of my all time favorite metal songs. Thanks for sharing this concert!
I've been listening to Meshuggah since 98 and finally saw them live for the first time last month. Not as much energy, obviously, because of age. Even I didn't mosh and stayed in the back with all of the middle aged folk that managed not to hurt our necks lol.
Amazing video. I've seen a few of the individual songs from this show but this is even better quality *and* uncut! What an incredible time and place. Everyone was totally into the music and you can feel the energy in the video. People are stage diving, the crowd is right up to the stage, no security, no one beating each other. Who knew you could actually enjoy such heavy music without worrying about getting kicked in the head!? Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for posting this treasure! I never dubted they were serious musicians already back then. Still I couldnt imagine how they could have recorded such a beast as Destroy Erase Improve... The performance is unbelieveable there and I kinda suspected there was a lot of studio tricks and editing behind it. But fuck, nope. The truth is simple - they fucking played it.... note by note .... nailing it. I cant... fucking ... believe .... my ears. Pity they never did such BRUTAL album anytime later. I mean later works are killer too, I like them. But DEI is (for me personally the fastest, the most intense and crushing. This is top Messugah era for me personally. Thanks again!
Meshuggah has been my all-time favorite band for a couple of decades now, and will probably remain so for the rest of my life. I first saw them live back in '03 and have been to multiple of their shows since then, but it's a lot of fun to see how young and energetic they were back in the '90s. Thanks a lot for uploading this awesome video!
I've heard that early on, Meshuggah cited Kobong as an influence. Incredible band, their drummer is one of my favorite drummers of all time. His work on those records and SAMO - s1 is just nuts.
Like most people I of course dig the Meshuggah of today but they were so rad back during these days also. I like the more Metallica inspired thrash at times and actually liked his vocals more like this and on earlier albums. Bleed still will forever be the most badass thing ever when it first dropped and the way vocals were done for that particular song, rule. Soul Burn’s my jam 🤘🎸🤘. Mad respect brothers of Meshuggah
they're all amazing musicians. but think about Tomas Haake here. He's ALREADY the machine. Crazy how good this is. I'm the stupid one. The older stuff is just as brilliant as the newer. Just a slightly different lense in time.
hell yeah, they pulled out some deep cuts like Humiliative, Neurotica and Gods of Rapture back in 2014, but they definitely need to do more. I've always wished Jens would return to this vocal style as well. It's a different energy.
@@93mrjake I'm pretty sure he means songs like "Humiliative" , "Sickening" and "Transfixion" . They still play "Future Breed Machine" and "In Death" to this day..
„CP“ & „Mongo“ hahahaha - I liked the hockey shirts and choirs back then. They played so on-point already back then it must have been a total blast in the audience. Especially because of all the fresh air Marten was windmilling!
Tomas is such a skilled player! To be 26 or so and playing and writing what he did up until this point is unreal? And he’s taken it and consistently pushed the envelope and his skills. Bleed aside, I think he is one of the more underrated or undermentioned drummers in modern metal. There’s some stuff he lays down that puts Portnoy to shame. Plus, his ability to subdivide and count is inhuman! Damn I love this stuff it takes me back to the end of high school when we’d listen to Meshuggah and try to picture what they looked like since the internet was in its infancy.

My favorite jazz band.

Exactly 😂😊
I actually don't like jazz but this might be the best entry and exit band for jazz.
13:14
The solo starting at 18:57 is literally just fusion

The fact that this was broadcast on national television just blows my mind. Swedes dont worry about opening up to all kinds of expressiveness
This live guitar tone has no business sounding this good
Id assume they werent using VSTs or axe fx in 97 so ofc it does lol theyre probably using the same setup they used to record.
This video is fucking amazing. At this point in their career it's like watching a band giving agonizing birth to a brand new genre of music.
