Slurred speech is one of the most common symptoms of prolonged exposure to serious riffage. Don't forget to take breaks every 2 hours the next time you're listening to Immutable.
Thankfully Immutable is only a few minutes north of an hour, so most listeners are safe as long as they don't listen to the full run multiple times in a sitting.
this is the face of a man who has listened to the entire meshuggah discografie in chronological order and has now transcended into 5th reality, therefore slowly but steadily unlearning his ability to speak, which is now obsolete
Great comments here. But why is nobody talking about how on point all the tones in the sound examples are. Ben your Meshuggah sound production is perfect.
Yay, finally another installment in the "Stuff ______ Does" series! The world can be at peace again. (I will never get “Frozen Fish Head, My Dog Turkey” out of my head)
Can we take a quick moment to appreciate that Uncle Ben even risked permanent head face disfigurements by sprinkling in multiple Jens Kidman impressions throughout the clip? Bravo Sir Ben'jammin, Bravo.
When you actually listened to all of Catch 33 and managed to "tell the songs apart" you unlock Chicken Tikka Marshgugah as a recipe, automatically added to your brainmail.
The literal perfect combination of gut busting humor and brilliant education about the theory and tendencies of one of the best bands of our generation.
What's insane is that many talented musicians can break down Meshuggah in many cool ways, however very few can make something as original as Meshuggah. I mean there are certain gimmicks Meshuggah uses, but the trick is how they make it groovy and organic instead of gimmicky and generic. There's a pulse to it rather than a beat, it just feels very much alive and breathing - while it also somehow feels super extradimensional and desolate. Great break down 👌
"Tomas plays the gortar riff with his feet, because they are friends." you know what they say: "Share the beets, share the feets." the Frozen Fish Head, My Dog Turkey strat is literally what SoaD does on Vicinity of Obscenity: "banana banana banana terracotta, banana terracotta, terracotta pie."
I love how you break it down like we're in a music theory classroom! So now people that aren't knowledgeable can actually understand what's happening within all these polyrhythms/meters.
Fantastic job on this Marzipan video, your playing is great and the fact you are able to break down those time signatures is very impressive. Happy to see Corridor of Chameleons get some love, I don’t know if they ever play that one live. Perpetual Black Second is their heaviest song and has my favorite riffs.
@@radalict thanks for the recommendation, I’m not very familiar with Koloss. Checked out the track, it’s a good one, considerably moodier than a lot of their later material
I have never seen any other band that makes such use of polyrhythmic as meshuggah does. Feel like, that really sets them apart from most other metal bands.
I completely believe, with every fiber of my being, that Meshuggah started as a band, because they wanted to afford bigger guitars and bigger drums and then they decided "Yo, this kinda grooves, let's roll with it" and music history was born.
I can just picture ya Ben at a meshuggery gig hugging everyone in the moshy pit chatting "frozen fishhead, my dog turkey". What a great sense of humour you have & a great way of explaining music theory to those who don't understand or know it. 😎🤓🤣
I love how for the "simple" example he used a part from I, their most chaotic basically unrepeatable song that they can't play live lol. Seriously though, he absolutely nailed both the playing and the tones. Shuggah are the bess boyz
just when I thought ive seen all the meshuggah focued videos. Your perfectly blended dead pan hummor with actual content. Chicken tikka meshuggah had me rolling. I think you managed to explain complex ideas in a digestable way for everyone. Subbed.
Fattest more bigglier props for not only including my favorite song Humiliative, but playing the best part of it flawlessly just like anything you happen to play.
Brown sugar is one of my favorite bands. Toe mass hackle sackie slays de drum kits. Frozen fish head method is super big brain move. That kid rock lookin fella is great at alien robot noises. Big thumbs up. Your satire resonates strongly with me. Keep up the good work!
Man, I'm not a musician and I am a total idiot when it comes to understanding beats, at least when it comes to Meshuggah's music. Your video actually made me get it. But I doubt I ever would be able to play it because of that. Totally excellent!
The solo in straws pulled at random is absolutely beautiful, it instantly puts me in a reflective mood. I'm not into guitar solos but that one really gets me.
This video got me big dick boyfriend, cleared up the acnes, erased every traumatic, and made me lots money for whole life. Thank you Brnbeller for everything
Haven't watched the video yet but this is the first time that I'm this early for anything so I would just like to thank uncle Ben for all the fun he provides. Giving you all your flowers while you can still smell them. Cheers to you!
Thank u for learn about stuff Meshuggah does. What other band boys do stuff u want to know?

"They have 33 pedal... I do not."
This was amazing. This whole video was amazing.
I have a dirty tree🤣🤣🤣
I have a dream.
lmfao YES!! something tells me he loves gortir
I burst out laughing at that part 💀💀💀🤣
pathetically, this was my realization that "dirty tree" sounds like "33"
Holy balls, that "Frozen fish head, my dog Turkey" song writing tip is genius.
ya lol i wouldn't bat an eye if i heard that on one of their albums
That reminded me of "Pickup a pancake" from the Oxford Dictionary's entry for Djent.
That's literally coming up with a mouth riff and playing it
The riff slaps!!
Kangaroos eating oranges
“Tone as tight as frog butthole” is now my way of describing this kind of sound. Thanks Uncle B
😳
😂😂😂
I've always said "tighter than dolphin ass" but to each their own lol
I never realized how many romantic songs Meshuggah has made, until now. ❤
Close Guy Visuals ❤
Just some boys makin some noise for the ladies!! Or other boys too!!🤷♂️🤷♂️🤘🤘
Meshuggah was my very favorite concert because you could ALWAYS bob to that 4/4
Yay, finally another installment in the "Stuff ______ Does" series! The world can be at peace again. (I will never get “Frozen Fish Head, My Dog Turkey” out of my head)
The planet is healing
That polymeter explanation is brilliant well done. And people said homeschooling is of no use tsk tsk
It's also nice to see it called what it actually is: a polymeter and NOT a polyrhythm.
Homeschooling from UA-cam and Patreon for the win.
Undoubtedly influenced by Yogev Gabay's great videos explaining Meshugah polyrhythms. Check out his channel!
I'm embarrassed to admit how much better I understood that than other explanations I've seen.

Great break down 👌
Many a band can play djent but only does meshuggah make it sound like you're communicating with some sort of extra dimensional being/ alien.
Groovy and organic?
This is some of the most repetitive and boring shit in existence
The vocals are criminal
other bands reduced things to gimmicks, but meshuggah is perpetually an organic machine of awesome. for me anyways

Been a huge fan (from Sweden) since Contradictions Collapse, and I agree! We can even dance to it, right? : )

true XD
Imagine Mashgooya releasing a song titled "Frozen Fish Head, My Dog Turkey" some time in the future. I think my head would implode.
I could see this as a Special Defects title
These types of posts are sooo funny. They are like a funny SNL skit, plus informational. I like Ben's style of humor.
Mushroom Burger about killed me.
Chicken Tikka Meshuggah got me too lmao
Comparing this to an SNL skit is insulting. SNL wishes it could be that funny
Big tim and eric vibes
Marsupial got me
I thought funny SNL skits went out of style in the early 2000s.
My only problem with this video is that you don’t have more of this style. I loved it, please make more boys of bands do stuff
I love how you break it down like we're in a music theory classroom! So now people that aren't knowledgeable can actually understand what's happening within all these polyrhythms/meters.
"Thomas has four beats" proceeds to show Haake with a bunch of beets. That literally made me laugh out loud
He’s a swede, not a beet.
I think the polytonality is what makes Meshuggah so good.
This is the funniest video about Meshuggah ever - so frustrating none of my relatives could even start to understand the niche humor
“Thomas will play the guitar boys’ riff on his feet, like a good friend.” is one of my favourite sentences ever concocted.
Ben talking about Meshuggah while doing a Steve Brule impression learned me better than any straight-laced nerds
Animals as Leaders would be fun. Good luck Uncle Ben!

Not only is this funny and educational, but that guitar tone is absolute fire.
No lie that was the best explanation for polymeter that I've heard. Very easy to understand.

The most original and entertaining beat lesson ever.

Thanks for the laughs uncle Ben! 🤣 Great playing as always 🤘🏽😣
It’s my favorite!
"They have thirty three, I have dirty tree"
Truly genius
“Tone tight as frog butthole” is my new favorite saying. I am eternally grateful uncle Ben.
I will take that Frog Butthole as my band name lmao
This is unironically a really good breakdown of a lot of the motifs Meshuggah uses. I feel like I could learn a lot from this
“When they got bigger, they put more string on Gortar.”
Never change Ben, never change. 🤣

I love it when bands make rubber riffs with bendy bois on the big string
Love the fact Jens Kidman composed "Behind The Sun". Seriously one of their best songs, so overlooked in my opinion.
Behind The Sun is probably in my top three ‘Shuggah songs. severely underrated.
Did not know that! Easily one of my favorite songs from Mehchuggah
Great one. Their more melodic ones tend to be the most impactful to me. The last couple minutes of Straws Pulled at Random anyone?
@@izzate7 Probably the most beautiful moment in their entire discograpy. I hope they play it live next summer at Metal Capital
Do Not Look Down is my favourite song by Mushroom Shed
