My friends always give me weird looks when I sit there with my iPod, sllightly headbanging and they ask me "What are you listening to?" and I reply "Nothing" :-/
The first time I heard this song it really had an effect on me. I couldn't get that ending riff out of my head. Ive even had dreams with that riff playing. There's just something about it.
@@tortureRoom You are nuts!! maybe the verse and the chorus are not a big deal but from the heavy riff before the solo onwards I think it's insanely heavy and brutal.
I tried to show Meshuggah to a friend. He listened for 30 seconds, switched it off and turned out Linkin Park's "In The End". Now I myself do like some Linkin Park every now and then, but this... was a sad moment for me.
One of Meshuggah's most underrated songs, in my opinion. SICK groove, mind bending lyrics, POWER and depth...testament to the fact that they are an aptly titled band.
Last night I downtuned my 7 string, started to play this song while listening it. The hyperboreal severance exospace collision magnitude of 6:23 and beyond is pure bestiality in many levels
The first time you hear Meshuggah, it's overwhelming. Then you get into their music and keep finding things that you didn't hear the first time through. They never get old, no matter how well you know their music.
6:23 onwards is fucking awesome. i love the over the top bend note in the riff... "derp... bee nerr nerrp...nnnnnerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr nerp" so fucking brutal and over the top. i love how it just sounds so out of place and is carried way over the bar
First, i was interressted in this band.Then, i forgot them. I found them again, listened,.......it was hard. Now i think: FUCK how brutal, fucking good are they????
The riff that plays from 3:00 to 3:30 is a solid contender for best riff on the album, in my opinion. So fucking brutal. And the rhythm is somewhat unusual for Meshuggah, especially the double snare hit at, say, 3:06 (I'm not sure what that... rhythm? is called, unfortunately). The way the guitar stops and starts again, the noise gate doing it's magic and the zeros chugging away. Fucking mesmerising. Makes you really feel the groove and headbang along.
"A twirling visual overload, Explosions of terror and beauty, Colours of fear and pain within, Crashing to Unanything." Tomas Haake, you are a lyrical genius.
My personal opinion is that the combination of guitars, rhythm, and rhythmically-placed screaming vocals during the "MIND-SIGNAL TRANSMISSION PEAKED, DISTORTED, BENT... UN-RE-STRAINED!!" defines Meshuggah's style the best.
black metal bands are religious visionaries and philosophers, etc, more than musicians; but meshuggah are pure musicians first and foremost. Their superior musicianship comes through instantly.
I'm so high right now and entranced by the ancestral blue print fractal layers like an onion housing thresholds of frequency that attract colours into harmonic geometric picture produced by the numbers which are well understood by the artist because what I see is thousands orcs destroying small villages in the dark while the light spits shapes through symptoms of sacred geometry.
This song used to scare me. Lol. When it quiets down and gets slow and melodic and fades out, then he comes out of nowhere with the screaming vocals. Ha ha. Love it.
Their last album sounds so flat in comparison to everything they've done in the past. I have quite a problem with the opener "Clockworks" due to that specific issue. There is no dynamic in the mix. It's just so flavourless. The drums should shine in that song, but since the first hat hits you know there's something missing.
NG Resonance was literally just telling a friend about the exact same thing except with Godflesh, so naturally I subconsciously looked up Meshuggah afterwards.
@killwhitneydead666 I've listened to catch 33 and nothing back to back while tripping. All i can say is when you come down how many hours later your left with a definite lasting impression.
i believe the only 'bad' thing Meshuggah ever did was re-recording this album.why man?why Meshuggah?i still hear this 11 years after i bought it,and it still sounds amazing.just perfect Meshuggah music,that's all.
You have to have the quite part before 6:23...actually you have to start it from Jens' guitar solo, which is one of my favorite Jens moments. This is a severely under rated song in their library. Love it. It's even better in the re-release.
I have to get this album. My first Meshuggah album was the one the re-did, and it's my 2nd favorite album of all their albums. It's fun to hear what they felt needed to change. I like the vocals on the re-release, and I like the way the new one sounds. I'm not into the newly released track "Pitch Black" that they put out recently. I heard that tune was supposed to be part of Nothing originally. No Jens, no Meshuggah...with a few exceptions.
I remember listening to this on lsa the precursor to lsd it felt like i was going through a thought loop of never ending lies that society created. lsa is crazier than lsd mentally

I see what you did there

I LOVE the sound of the original mix! Its fkn awesome. My favourite album as well.
All this album is a masterpiece!!!
This is the one that changed metal forever.
@@tortureRoom You are nuts!! maybe the verse and the chorus are not a big deal but from the heavy riff before the solo onwards I think it's insanely heavy and brutal.
Yes, probably the worst song of the album. @@tortureRoom
Ahead of its time!

Sounds more like that it was a sad moment for your friend.

the guitar solo just leaves me speachless rock out Meshuggah \m/

i think the detune has positively affected your syntactical elaborations.
The first time you hear Meshuggah, it's overwhelming. Then you get into their music and keep finding things that you didn't hear the first time through. They never get old, no matter how well you know their music.
all of this feels like a dream
tomas haake is a lyrical genius.
He could be the most talented person in metal
This and Bleed are my favorite Meshuggah songs by far.
One of the most underrated Meshuggah tracks imo. Solo is absolutely killer and the outro riff is heavy af and subdivided so precisely it’s AMAZING
6:23 -- "I'M TROOOLLIIIING!!!!"
Yes, you are. And I love it.
some guys still dont know the awesomeness of the Nothing album
Viking funk
The original sounds so much clearer!
If you read the lyrics to closed eye visuals by meshuggah, it’s like a poem on how dogs feel during 4th of July
Destroy erase improve, contradictions collapse, and nothing are my top 3 fav meshuggah albums \m/
6:23 onwards is fucking awesome. i love the over the top bend note in the riff... "derp... bee nerr nerrp...nnnnnerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr nerp" so fucking brutal and over the top. i love how it just sounds so out of place and is carried way over the bar
Man this song is my JAAMMMM ***Elaine dance***
-What's your favorite part of this one ?
-Yes.
Part @3:00 makes me go fkn crazy. Thank you God/Universe/etc. for Meshuggah \m/
3:30 for me
First, i was interressted in this band.Then, i forgot them. I found them again, listened,.......it was hard. Now i think: FUCK how brutal, fucking good are they????
have you heard the song Bleed? If you have I don't think you'd ever forget them again.
Kalman Kovacs I think New Millennium Cyanide Christ is better.
same opinion on this one...

No words exist for statement my feelings from this
"A twirling visual overload, Explosions of terror and beauty, Colours of fear and pain within, Crashing to Unanything."
Tomas Haake, you are a lyrical genius.
This song is wonderful. Chaosphere and Nothing are what hooked me.
My all time fav song by the mighty Meshuggah. A song that lives up to it's name.
My personal opinion is that the combination of guitars, rhythm, and rhythmically-placed screaming vocals during the "MIND-SIGNAL TRANSMISSION PEAKED, DISTORTED, BENT... UN-RE-STRAINED!!" defines Meshuggah's style the best.
black metal bands are religious visionaries and philosophers, etc, more than musicians; but meshuggah are pure musicians first and foremost. Their superior musicianship comes through instantly.
You fucking RULE for posting this. This song - this version - is probably my favorite Meshuggah song...and that's saying something. This shit RIPS.
masterpiece
yep
Yep
It’s just so so good!!

Wut?
@@Cannedscourge not wut WUTDAFUQ ?
I'll have what you're having.
cringe
This album is revolution of their music makign and my music perception. G.O.A.T.
One of the most underrated songs off of nothing..this song owns
This song used to scare me. Lol. When it quiets down and gets slow and melodic and fades out, then he comes out of nowhere with the screaming vocals. Ha ha. Love it.
it is as it is, perfect
If they kept this version's drums with the new guitar this would have been the perfect album.
+Justin Stewart yeah especially if they would've left out the awful vocal overdubbing
Their last album sounds so flat in comparison to everything they've done in the past. I have quite a problem with the opener "Clockworks" due to that specific issue. There is no dynamic in the mix.

Nothing instead
I watched the Alive dvd tripping balls. all the foot stamping to the beat and head banging had me sopped with sweat. it was terrifying/awesome
Omg! This song is simply amazing, and i discovered this band just now...
First album I bought of theirs , and still one of my favorites.
my favorite Meshuggah song
Aww, the remaster is just so much better. Everything about it. It does the song more justice.
Metallica - Thrash
Behemoth - Death metal
Dethklok - Comedic Dethmetal
Meshuggah - Meshuggah
Groovy as fuck
Wonderful
Lovely!
Best song ever
this is awesome.
Meshuggah was basically describing the dark side of LSD trips in their music.
NG Resonance was literally just telling a friend about the exact same thing except with Godflesh, so naturally I subconsciously looked up Meshuggah afterwards.
@@whoseeyesareflowers639 Totally and I don't think many fans have caught onto it yet either. Godflesh was on that dark psychedelic wave.
EXPLOSIONS!!!!
How did this NOT become a single off this album??? Like seriously???
For some its happy and for some its dark and scary beware it will change you for awhile took me a few years to get over them
great track
@killwhitneydead666 I've listened to catch 33 and nothing back to back while tripping. All i can say is when you come down how many hours later your left with a definite lasting impression.
beautiful song
ALMOST pressed like, keep it up
i believe the only 'bad' thing Meshuggah ever did was re-recording this album.why man?why Meshuggah?i still hear this 11 years after i bought it,and it still sounds amazing.just perfect Meshuggah music,that's all.
Just wanna say that it still sounds amazing 20 years later as well.
Working out to this makes you feel like Mars
I really like this song in particular from this band, i don't know, that riff is just really sick.
0:29 - 0:36 = Wow. The instantly win from just that. The rest of the song is just the biggest bonus.
thanks, i was wanting to listen to the original version
everybody talking about the afterlude riff
but for me I love the part from 4:27 to 5:24
You have to have the quite part before 6:23...actually you have to start it from Jens' guitar solo, which is one of my favorite Jens moments. This is a severely under rated song in their library. Love it. It's even better in the re-release.
Doesn't matter which one, just Do Not Look Down!
i know that speeding up slow music is wrong, but sometimes i do it just for curiosity. GUYS, THE FIRST RIFF AT 2x IS CRUSHER
Thanks indeed. I like the way the original sounds so much better than the re-issue. And sadly that's all you find on youtube
@Ician100 It's sure to be. Obzen is probably their most diverse album. Destroy Erase Improve has lot of diversity, as well.
Set speed to 2 for a new version. It is a good experience, changes the dynamic!
+Fergal Quigley 1.25 sounds a little more realistic haha
At 1.25 speed it almost has a 'Do not look down' feel to it :D
I have to get this album. My first Meshuggah album was the one the re-did, and it's my 2nd favorite album of all their albums. It's fun to hear what they felt needed to change.

@underscoreisnotvalid one of the baddest ass riffs ever!
@DoctorLipsh1ts That's great. Keep us up to date with any further developments...
LOL.
Meshuggah plus acid equals your brain in fight or flight in that ancient moment the split second before killing or being killed, the hair raises.
The technical metal Gods...
this is BRUTAL dont ya think
meshuggah has been doing this for 25 yrs. or so it's what allan holdsworth would sound like if played metal
Nope.
sick Gorguts reference (La Mort Orgasme)
Kalman Kovacs Yeah, direct influence for me :D
but ya got to admit (CLOSED EYE VISUALS) is the best off this album along with Meshuggah
I remember listening to this on lsa the precursor to lsd it felt like i was going through a thought loop of never ending lies that society created. lsa is crazier than lsd mentally
Grody
I fucking loooooove that melody at 1:06
@DeathMetalArchives hahaha been there lol. I dont think I could have comprehended this song lol
@DeathMetalArchives yeh and the cops were screaming SON, CAN YOU HEAR ME?! did the cops face look like the cover?
Will there ever be a day when meshuggah will be defeated i think not! its foolish to try!
4:27 Fucking orgasmatic solo with badass riff
Jens in an elephant G-string in Long Beach CA. He had a clue lol
0:30 excuse me while I loop this part for 4 hours
...my pleasure ;-)
(I uploaded this song precisely because you could only find the 'Nothing (Re-Issue)' version here on youtube)
this album art is similar to the visuals i had on an 8th of mushrooms while laying on my back looking up unable to physically move
gr8 song. btw is the vocals hardcore-punk?
@voidisall where.......is the re-issue........?
Thordendal sounds so much like Holdsworth in the solo!
techdeathcurator as always
the intention ;)
closed eye visuals
@voidisall
Yes, thank you. Not sure why...but I like the original better. The remaster just sounds...well so ridiculous lol
so fucking good i love this
@Ghosy00 yes, maybe hardcore-thrash.
@Restayvien Yeah, I usually feel like Zeus when i listen to Pineal Gland Optics
Where can I find the original album?
Yeah this isn't about trippin...
The veil of human reality
