Hey Geebz! Thanks for the feedback at 10:02 :) I am the creator of the video for They Move Below. I used an "AI" library called Stable Diffusion to produce the images using a bunch of different techniques for feeding it video inputs and blending frames to animate smoothly. More stuff like this is available on my channel. I love that you watched this before going to get some sleep. Hope you had wild dreams :). Love your channel.
@Wizardhead Stunning work on the video brother….The music and video worked in perfect cohesion…as Geebz mentioned….this track was such a mood vibe and the video definitely added to that effect….
This song is one of the darkest pieces of music I’ve ever heard. Once the guitar in the higher register takes off, it feels like the music is calling you from the void
The hypnotic power of Meshuggah is what I always loved most about their songs. I’ve been a fan of them for 25 years or so, and yes I love the heaviness, the agression, the layers and complexity. But Meshuggas greatest feat, imo, is their ability to suck you into their dark, musical universe, where I just get caught into their grove.
Agree. I sometimes try to explain how I think of them as the metal version of psy trance but that seems to incorrectly conjure an untz untz untz techno image, but experientially they really create a kind of alternate sonic and temporal continuum that's just absorbs your mind
Please eventually do phantoms off this album. It's an almost latin sounding mindfuck of a track tempo wise that is one of those songs where once you catch the subdivision you can never see it the same, and its dripping with atmosphere to boot.
Tomas once said he's not looking forward to playing Phantoms live. This is the same guy who can play Bleed, Future Breed Machine & Dancers To A Discordant System live with no problem. Jeezz how difficult IS this song 😳??!!
Absolutely became one of my all time favorite Meshuggah songs. They never do this. You can count on one hand the songs that have long section like this. I hope they do more. I can see someone singing, not screaming on this and it's blowing my mind the possibilities. I imagine Maynard or Chino singing on this. Would be so sick.
Exactly. first time hearing this, i was singing over the intro in Maynard style. Meshuggah need to bless us with more chill atmospheric sections like this \m/
This song was what made Meshuggah finally click for me. I’d always tried to get into the band since my favourite band, Periphery, were heavily inspired by them, but never could. One night, at 3am, this music video appeared on my recommended and I was completely awestruck. It hit me with such vivid, uncanny and uneasy imagery that my mind expanded and invented around, and I ended up writing a whole bit of prose in that moment of inspiration. The Giger like visuals felt so unsafely natural to me, and this song is now my go to for when I need to get into that cold, unfeeling, squirming and alive vibe that Giger’s paintings give me for my writing.
I know it is a hard reaction but i would LOVE to watch you react to their whole "catch 33" album. It is around 50 something minutes but it is produced to be all one long track, i think you would really like it, but i understand if you dont want to cause of how long it is. 🤙
I really really wish this happens. Catch 33 in my opinion is the quintessential Meshuggah album with the most insane tracks I have ever heard. Also, the flow of the album is simply on another level being what essentially is a one Meshuggah song. Oh and when you go through the whole album in sitting and Dehumanization kicks in you just transcend.
@@honk1419 the breakdown in Dehumanization absolutely blew my mind when I first heard it. I don't think any piece of music has hit me quite as hard as that did. They weren't playing around when they wrote Catch 33 that's for sure😂
Once you realise the snare is a backbeat throughout the whole track, it sways in a totally different way. Took me dozens of listens to lock onto the feel of the song, and it's absolutely crushing. One of my favourite things about Meshuggah is that you can discover something entirely new within their songs, even when you've listened to them for weeks/months/years.
This video is as if Lovecraft, Giger and Escher had all been uploaded into one sick AI and forcefed Meshuggah... and the track itself is moody a.f. and just so. damn. good. Thank you for listening to this, while having a bit of insomnia! I'm still here!
This song... your breakdown... has my face soaked. I am somewhat neurodivergent and music connects to every nerve in my body. Certain notes cause saliva to shoot from under my tongue... goosebumps are the minimum expression of this... thank you so much for making this video.
HELL'S YES GEEBZ!!! Meshuggah is so badass. The real magic of Meshuggah for me happens with repeated listens. Once I have heard a track 3 or 4 times there's some magic that happens, where I hear it from all new angles and it sounds better every time.
This album is so damn amazing, love that this was an instrumental. I would love to hear your take on their entire Catch Thirty Three album in a slow burn. It’s basically 13 tracks for one entire song. An amazing 45 mins.
To me, one of the beauties of this track, talking about the opening and maturity, is that it to me honors and builds upon-, and in a way completes-, many of the other more quiet instrumental parts they've scattered around their catalogue. Songs like "Obsidian", the ending of "Sum" and some of the earlier parts all over Destroy Erase Improve and Contradictions Collapse albums. I myself, at least in the musical sense, get a strong sensation of the band having fully and truly matured and WISENED at this point - the latter of those being key, as i think thats what a lot of Meshuggahs symbolic and lyrical content is about!
If no one has mentioned it already, check out the last 6:10 minutes of “In Death - Is Death” as it transitions to “Shed” off of Catch 33. Similar somewhat to “They Move Below”; but a different voyage and into the later part of the album. At some point, you can hear the click track.
I actually found a 1 hour loop of the beginning soft part of this song and used it as study music for a book report on war of the world. Reading some of the parts of the book with this playing in my ears allowed me to visualize a lot of scenes. Meshuggah is an insane band
This is the only track that actually starts with such a big clean part in the beginning (besides obsodian? as far as I'm aware) I always love these more chill videos from you, hope to see more but hope you get some sleep!
Still here! Instant click when I saw you posted this. They Move Below was the first song on this album that I heard, and I was enamored immediately. I think it's my favorite Meshuggah track. Also saw them live about 2 months ago and it was a genuinely unbelievably good show.
Hope you slept well after this! Russian Circles is a great instrumental metal band that I think you would enjoy. Their song Gnosis has lots of layers and the musicianship is dialed in. Maybe save it for a cold day if you get them!
Geebz, if you're into this kind of ethereal reverberated guitars, they did quite a lot of them in their 2005 album Catch Thirtythree ; which I advise you to listen to in its entirety because it's a concept album where everything is connected!
This is the deepest dig into the human aural cavity that a metal band has ever lifted an Atonal shovel up to execute! This is light years beyond a phenomenal listening experience. A hypnotic/euphoric entangling!
Hey there, greetings from Slovakia. The word, you were looking for was oppression. The hypnotic oppression that is put on you, when you listen to this song is enormous. The timing, the rythm, the heights of lead, the lows of bass and drums, everything fits perfectly to attack your senses in the dark, heavy but beatiful atmosphere. Thank you for your reaction and take care!
Geebz, I’m dying for you to check out Phantoms from this same album. To me, it perfectly encapsulates Meshuggah’s growth and maturity you spoke about in this video, but mixed with the classic elements that make Meshuggah…Meshuggah!
The part at 14:33 where imagery becomes more lovecraftian and the music seemingly takes on more destructive form - I love that feeling of deterioration and corruption, most neutral evil sound ever. That song is visionary
I also saw this the other day pop up nd sat thru it exactly as you are in that ethereal trance. I love your new setup my first time seeing it, and you can trust by my username I was enjoying this review with you Aloha brotha!
This song is credited to Marten Hagstrom. I feel I could have guess this just by the sound. To me, it sounds like a much more mature and fleshed out version of Acrid Placidity from Destroy Erase Improve, a song written by Marten in the earlier years of Meshuggah. The intro to They Move Below has the same sort of bitter, dissonant sound as the aforementioned song albeit with much more dimension and progression this time. The mid section of the song also, to me at least, bears a stylistic resemblance to the track Pitch Black. IMO as much as I love Meshuggah, I haven't been the biggest fan of the albums after Obzen. To me, this is the best song and video they have done in 10+ years. It hearkens back to Meshuggah's more experimental phase ala Catch 33 or Nothing but with a different spin.
Still here! I'm glad you appreciated this song and video as much as I did! Also I'd still love it if you de-composed Means End's "Crimson Interloper", "Magnanimous", "Lied von Leid", or their cover of "Nox Aurumque" (check out their music video of that one!)??!! It's been a LONG time since I asked lol In fact, you should just do a slow-burn of all 4 songs, since I hear they have their next album coming soon!! ...a little bird told me 😉
First of all. Fan of your channel and a big huge meshuggahh fan. I esse wondering if you could do an entire reaction they're álbum "Catch33". It is a concept álbum with all The songs connected. The álbum has a 3 note motif that runs across all The entire álbum ( using octaves, 9's and 7's along with Tonic and so forward) Spicy to a composer analyze. Just the 3 first songs only have, if i am nota mistaken 3 notes or 4. It is a voyage. It is their Masterpiece and yes there is some clean and ethereal parts there too. Reply ir you can. And thanks for all you have done. Meshuggah is top 5 most revolutionay and influencer banda ever in The metal genre and jazz Aldo, like Tigran Hamasyan work (meshuggah fan top, btw).
Took a while for this song to 'click' for me, until I realised that the snare is pretty much a backbeat all the way through. Once you hear that, you realise it's in 12/8 or 6/8, but all of the riffs are so syncopated that you have to really lock in. Once you do though, it really swings. Classic Meshuggah headfuck.
yeah the intro was kind of somewhat new but they usually try to have one track that’s more slowed down and melodic than the rest of the album like “the last vigil” and “obsidian” for sure on the maturity subject
Insane track, love what you had to say about it! Spasm is an amazing and quite unique track amongst others by Meshuggah, would be lovely if you decomposed it! And I'm still here btw!
Do the song Sane off the Chaosphere album for your next Meshuggah reaction. It is some badassed production, probably the best sound I ever heard from late 90's analog. Some cool panning between 2 guitars has a hypnotic effect, not to mention amazing performances of the awesome music they wrote at the time.
Meshuggah has employed longer, ambient sections like the intro to this track in a lot of their older material. Check out the end of "In Death (Is Death)" from Catch Thirtythree, it's unlike anything else of theirs.
The Catch 33 album is a single song, a continuous suite, with 13 movements. Some of which are discordant, building instrumentals. The intro to this song reminds me of one of those transitions.
Nice! The vid kinda makes me think of a cross of a really dark Ozric Tentacles artwork and some of Tool's artwork. The B&W makes me think a bit of Escher stuff, too. Great track and video. Hadn't picked up on this, yet. Cheers!
Commenting "still here" for the algo, found your igorrr cheval video.. now recommended this. Great stuff. Check out amorphis - rusty moon, acoustic version found here on youtube!
I feel like during the soft part you were thinking "ok, this is nice but I know it's going to drop and catch me off guard". You were prepared, but I saw you do a little jump!
I'm on a heroic dose of coffee while watching this , and I'm trippin on the visuals. had me thinking about what AI or skills it took to make the video. I can see the future of Tattoos being something like this , where you go to a shop, sit at a computer, put in criteria based on your preferred subject (eg. Skulls, aliens, eyeballs, stairs, tentacles) The computer renders up about a 15 seconds of this type of video with all your criteria melded together....Then you just go though the video frame by frame taking screen shots. Then you choose what screen shot you like and where you want it tattooed, then the tattoo transfer prints out. At this point you can choose to have it done by the tattoo artist or sit in one of the automated booths with a robot arm that will come out of the ceiling and bust it out . CNC tattoo booths!!! lol
This was quite an interesting video. I've been listening to Meshuggah for many years now and they rarely do instrumentals. I really enjoyed the song and the music video was kinda cool too. I hope you can review Wilma's Rainbow by Helmet.

Fantastic work!
This song is one of the darkest pieces of music I’ve ever heard. Once the guitar in the higher register takes off, it feels like the music is calling you from the void
It’s a beautiful representation of endless, mindless, moving chaos of anything beyond our idea of reason. And it’s fun for us stoners to watch lol.
If Meshuggah wrote an Opeth song
lol, darkest?!) check fistula, 7.5 tones of beard, corrupted, maruta, etc...
@@nicko_666 there's different interpretations of darkness and void. not just violence and hate.
The hypnotic power of Meshuggah is what I always loved most about their songs. I’ve been a fan of them for 25 years or so, and yes I love the heaviness, the agression, the layers and complexity. But Meshuggas greatest feat, imo, is their ability to suck you into their dark, musical universe, where I just get caught into their grove.
And so few people understand that, it feels sad at times because you know they're missing a piece of the puzzle.
Agree. I sometimes try to explain how I think of them as the metal version of psy trance but that seems to incorrectly conjure an untz untz untz techno image, but experientially they really create a kind of alternate sonic and temporal continuum that's just absorbs your mind
@@Wizardhead ”Absorbs your mind”. I like it. 👍
I often listen to Mesh when I work. It get’s me into a certain mood. Like a bubble, or in the zone, where I just get my shit done like in a trance.
A depth of insight that could probably only be expressed by a true Meshuggah elder!
This song is a masterpiece, the intro especially is sad and uneasy but beautiful at the same time. The whole song is a hypnotic spiritual experience.
This is my first listen but I think you hit the nail on the head. 🤘
Please eventually do phantoms off this album. It's an almost latin sounding mindfuck of a track tempo wise that is one of those songs where once you catch the subdivision you can never see it the same, and its dripping with atmosphere to boot.
+1
One of the most ass-kicking songs I've heard in years. I think Phantoms may be my new Meshuggah favorite... at least post-Catch 33
Yeah, I'm not the only one who hear latin vibes in Phantoms. My personal favourite from Immutable.
Tomas once said he's not looking forward to playing Phantoms live. This is the same guy who can play Bleed, Future Breed Machine & Dancers To A Discordant System live with no problem. Jeezz how difficult IS this song 😳??!!
PLEASE try Phantoms, i've been obsessed with that song since it came out, no cap
Absolutely became one of my all time favorite Meshuggah songs. They never do this. You can count on one hand the songs that have long section like this. I hope they do more.

@Arkeves the clean part made me think of Animals as Leaders
they have plenty of songs like this...
The perfect tune to do as an encore for a concert.
Death - 'Voice of the Soul' One of the pioneers of Death Metal and a track that is very emotional. Been requesting it for a while 😁
I second this
yes
yes!
YES PLEASE!!
This song was what made Meshuggah finally click for me. I’d always tried to get into the band since my favourite band, Periphery, were heavily inspired by them, but never could.

Agreed. He could do a special edition ‘slow burn’ which is just all of C33
YES PLEASE
Catch Thirty-Three feels like the end of the damn world and the birth of a new one
nothing makes me feel like that song does
@@honk1419 the breakdown in Dehumanization absolutely blew my mind when I first heard it. I don't think any piece of music has hit me quite as hard as that did. They weren't playing around when they wrote Catch 33 that's for sure😂
I feel like late night stoner sessions with Geebz should become a thing. The track was awesome, and that video was sick!
Absolutely bro 🤙🏻
Yeah that'd be awesome
Once you realise the snare is a backbeat throughout the whole track, it sways in a totally different way. Took me dozens of listens to lock onto the feel of the song, and it's absolutely crushing. One of my favourite things about Meshuggah is that you can discover something entirely new within their songs, even when you've listened to them for weeks/months/years.
It took me a minute to realise it was in a triplet feel. Once I noticed it completely switched the feel around and was much more satisfying
This video is as if Lovecraft, Giger and Escher had all been uploaded into one sick AI and forcefed Meshuggah... and the track itself is moody a.f. and just so. damn. good.
Thank you for listening to this, while having a bit of insomnia!
I'm still here!
I also love how this track transitions to the next one titled Kaleidoscope
This album is such a treat for all Meshuggah fans
This song... your breakdown... has my face soaked. I am somewhat neurodivergent and music connects to every nerve in my body. Certain notes cause saliva to shoot from under my tongue... goosebumps are the minimum expression of this... thank you so much for making this video.
That kind of neurodivergence sounds simultaneously terrifying and exhilarating.
if you haven't seen meshuggah live yet you have to. it's one of the most intense things i've ever witnessed
HELL'S YES GEEBZ!!! Meshuggah is so badass. The real magic of Meshuggah for me happens with repeated listens. Once I have heard a track 3 or 4 times there's some magic that happens, where I hear it from all new angles and it sounds better every time.

Pineal gland optics. That will blow your mind
So overrated track 😢!!
Love that you checked this one out! I finally got to see Meshuggah live this year after waiting over 30 years and I'll never forget it.
Like... a Hypnotic Contraption.
I'm still here :D
Geebz!!
I love when you do the Shuggah.
It's what made me a subscriber !
This is the deepest dig into the human aural cavity that a metal band has ever lifted an Atonal shovel up to execute! This is light years beyond a phenomenal listening experience. A hypnotic/euphoric entangling!

Xxxooo
This is an expert analysis of the mighty Meshuggah.. Thanks man
I join you from the future! Love from Australia

can't sleep
what do I do
LISTEN TO SOME 'SHUGGAH!
love the spirit!
Would love to see you tackle some Nile, something like Arra of the 4th Dagon, In the Name of Amun or even a classic like Sarcophagus
I am still here, recovering from that Meshuggah track. What a great track.
The outro melody moving back a couple beats every bar at the end. Haunting.
I'm still here!
I originally described this video as H.R. Geiger paintings on a heroic dose of LSD.
I’m still here!! This song is amazing
“I couldn’t sleep. Bro you didn’t rip a fat bowl?

totally agrees, thank you for your input , i'd love geebs to review catch 33
Meshuggah is perfect 🤩 for sleep 😴 😅😅😅😅❤❤❤❤❤
Hypnotic knot! They have some of those! Still here! Awwright!
Hey Geebz!!!
Future Classical music...
Meshuggah, Gojira, Jinjer... I like and respect how you are gravitating towards the very best in modern metal.
I love it when you review Meshuggah! Still here!
Killer guitar sound on the riffs, really crunchy. Aloha Geebz I hope you can get some shut eye!😎🤙
Yes!! This track is off the newest album but the music video that you're watching just came out I think a few weeks ago. Really cool to watch
Still here! I'm glad you appreciated this song and video as much as I did! Also I'd still love it if you de-composed Means End's "Crimson Interloper", "Magnanimous", "Lied von Leid", or their cover of "Nox Aurumque" (check out their music video of that one!)??!! It's been a LONG time since I asked lol
In fact, you should just do a slow-burn of all 4 songs, since I hear they have their next album coming soon!! ...a little bird told me 😉
First of all. Fan of your channel and a big huge meshuggahh fan. I esse wondering if you could do an entire reaction they're álbum "Catch33".
It is a concept álbum with all The songs connected. The álbum has a 3 note motif that runs across all The entire álbum ( using octaves, 9's and 7's along with Tonic and so forward) Spicy to a composer analyze. Just the 3 first songs only have, if i am nota mistaken 3 notes or 4. It is a voyage. It is their Masterpiece and yes there is some clean and ethereal parts there too. Reply ir you can. And thanks for all you have done. Meshuggah is top 5 most revolutionay and influencer banda ever in The metal genre and jazz Aldo, like Tigran Hamasyan work (meshuggah fan top, btw).
Awesome! Was hoping you'd seen this!
Great as always! - Enjoy the coffee! :)
What is blowing my mind with Meshuggah is that I understand the tempo but I can not figure what is the time signature… and I love it 🤷🏻♂️
Took a while for this song to 'click' for me, until I realised that the snare is pretty much a backbeat all the way through. Once you hear that, you realise it's in 12/8 or 6/8, but all of the riffs are so syncopated that you have to really lock in. Once you do though, it really swings. Classic Meshuggah headfuck.
Please do Swarm for your next Meshuggah dissection. Such an underrated song and, in my opinion, one of their most powerful tracks.
Fuck, how good is SWARM!
Definitely one of my favourites.
something like that intro is Acrid placidity instrumental song from Destroy Erase Improve.
The another one sick instrumental track by Messhuggah is 'Obsidian'.
Look at 8 minutes version!
yeah the intro was kind of somewhat new but they usually try to have one track that’s more slowed down and melodic than the rest of the album like “the last vigil” and “obsidian” for sure on the maturity subject
17:15 "if you're glitching on a heroic dose"... haha pretty awesome Hawaiian slang there. I'm still here. Aloha! \m/
Insane track, love what you had to say about it!
Spasm is an amazing and quite unique track amongst others by Meshuggah, would be lovely if you decomposed it!
And I'm still here btw!
Do the song Sane off the Chaosphere album for your next Meshuggah reaction. It is some badassed production, probably the best sound I ever heard from late 90's analog. Some cool panning between 2 guitars has a hypnotic effect, not to mention amazing performances of the awesome music they wrote at the time.
I kind of Opeth in the Beginning.
Nightmare is the word. Hypnotic Nightmare.
Can't talk. Listening....
That's why I love your channel.
I feel like, for certain songs, Meshuggah is basically just giga-heavy Jazz
Tru
Now, if you don't call yourself a metalhead.... Listening to these lullaby trying to sleep makes you one!!! \m/
Still here! ❤️🤙🏼
Ambience is the word.
Lotta Catch Thirty Three influence on this track. Love it!
Thank you as always ☺️❤️
I'm still here! 😯📢 WOOOOOOO! 🤘💯
please do The Faultless offf this album!! very underrated track with alot of melodic power
Meshuggah has employed longer, ambient sections like the intro to this track in a lot of their older material.
Check out the end of "In Death (Is Death)" from Catch Thirtythree, it's unlike anything else of theirs.
Shalom brother
This has become my favorite song by Meshuggah. I did a mini cover of the riff that starts at 6 minutes in. It’s an absolute masterpiece 🤘
Great band!
The Catch 33 album is a single song, a continuous suite, with 13 movements. Some of which are discordant, building instrumentals. The intro to this song reminds me of one of those transitions.
That was really nuts

Nice! The vid kinda makes me think of a cross of a really dark Ozric Tentacles artwork and some of Tool's artwork. The B&W makes me think a bit of Escher stuff, too. Great track and video. Hadn't picked up on this, yet. Cheers!
The whole album is so good, but this is for sure on of the greatest pieces I've ever heard. One of their deepest tracks next to Catch 33.
Like marching through quicksand and fog!
Commenting "still here" for the algo, found your igorrr cheval video.. now recommended this. Great stuff. Check out amorphis - rusty moon, acoustic version found here on youtube!
7:20 this transition into the nastiest groove ever, insane
The intro is auto goosebump. My favourite song of the album.
Love the album, still here
If you love that "kind" of Meshuggah , check Behind the sun from them.
I feel like during the soft part you were thinking "ok, this is nice but I know it's going to drop and catch me off guard". You were prepared, but I saw you do a little jump!
tripping out in many different levels... wink, wink... :P Those aren't just tired red eyes lol
I'm on a heroic dose of coffee while watching this , and I'm trippin on the visuals. had me thinking about what AI or skills it took to make the video. I can see the future of Tattoos being something like this , where you go to a shop, sit at a computer, put in criteria based on your preferred subject (eg. Skulls, aliens, eyeballs, stairs, tentacles) The computer renders up about a 15 seconds of this type of video with all your criteria melded together....Then you just go though the video frame by frame taking screen shots. Then you choose what screen shot you like and where you want it tattooed, then the tattoo transfer prints out. At this point you can choose to have it done by the tattoo artist or sit in one of the automated booths with a robot arm that will come out of the ceiling and bust it out . CNC tattoo booths!!! lol
hypnotic crawl
My man couldnt sleep so he pulls up an existential nightmare of a meshuggah music video lmao
Please check out "Catch 33." It is one of my all-time favorites. It would make for a daunting listen because it really should be heard in one pass.
love
I'm still here
Hypnotic Trance Metal! The video reminds me of a cross between M.C. Escher and H.R Higer. Cheers and Aloha everyone!
This was quite an interesting video. I've been listening to Meshuggah for many years now and they rarely do instrumentals. I really enjoyed the song and the music video was kinda cool too.
I hope you can review Wilma's Rainbow by Helmet.
Recently found this band called Ordos. Super good metal band. You should absolutely check out their song Hunter of Hades.
