People say the bass is hidden in Meshuggah, but it's more of an ear trick - once you hear it, it's very prominent in their sound, it's just very sonically and rhythmically tight with the guitars
They aren't the only band to utilize this. Mainly I feel that it is a tendency of the bassist of meshuggah to make a bassline that follows the guitar as opposed to being a background instrument.
People expect the bass to be the lower sound in contrast to the guitars, but more often than not the bass in Meshuggah's music is playing higher than the guitars. Which, I think is awesome cuz it makes for an interesting sound and it doesn't overload you with too much low end.
In all my years and shows I have been to, I have never experienced a band the made the air and the ground move and vibrate like these guys can. Just the heaviest band in the world, bar none.
Meshuggah is the sound of our universe trying to communicate with us the only way it knows. Through violent vibrations of immense magnitude buzzing an unknown, yet awakening oscillation of your core.
I hurt my neck and gave myself a headache headbanging to this reaction, worth it 🤣. I've been a Meshuggah fan since 1995, even now at 40 years old I'm still going to risk injury rocking out to these guys.
eye literally couldn't tell any difference between your normal voice and your radio voice ;) one of the greatest ever 'rock' 'pieces'. gods. the fade is a shame. there is a longer version, but they faded the video.
Guys, I've got something like you've never seen before, her name is Angelina Jordan. She's a Norwegian jazz singer who will blow you away. Try her I put a spell on you, Age 9. I guarantee you will want more. She is something special.
I tried it. I am with Ty and Ryan - musically it was good. Maybe too heavy for me. But (always an upside), you said you have listened to this over (or on a kick). When you talk about songs or groups you like - you have a spark and you are very articulate, and at times passionate. So it is great that you bring all genres to the forefront. On an unrelated note. I listen to the Drive every night. (Our Classic Rock station). I have it playing all night. On Tuesdays they do Two for Tuesdays. Right now they just played Dreams then Rhiannon is on now. Referring to the Rhiannon video where you said Dreams is the precursor to Rhiannon. It works! ❤😁
Want to get your mind blown even more? They sound EXACTLY the same when they play these songs live. It's hard for people to understand that this isn't some shit programmed in MIDI and synths or VST's are playing generated numerical values. These motherfuckers REAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLY play this tight & sound THIS GOOD live. Watch Meshuggah - Clockworks (Drum playthrough) where you see their drummer play the song. People I have shown that video to do not believe that he actually plays what he plays. Well, they do.
Uhm: VOICE is ALWAYS another instrument. Always has been. Always. In EVERY style of music. In every place they are used. ....It's, simply, ridiculous how people try to "put them in a different category, entirely" (or something)! (Just as: "drugs and alcohol"🙄🙄🙄🙄🤦🤦 -Uhm, **slap** alcohol IS a drug!!! It, just, happens to be a LEGAL one (like: nicotine -and, maybe NOT the other hundreds or thousands of additive chemical poisons that cigarette companies loaded-up cigarettes with, over the decades-) and, now (in many places) "da reefer,"" as well). ...But, yes: they are legalized drugs, but still: drugs. SO, it's, just, "drugs" (if you're generalizing). ...or are people, now, saying: "cheese and Camembert"?? ..."food and eggs"??? ...I am NOT going to list every member of the family I, just, gave the overall name/designation to!! W.T.F.?? 🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🙄🙄😡). SO, yes: although you may, somehow, have thought of it as/thought it INTO "something different," the voice IS and ALWAYS has been: "a musical instrument." It takes JUST as much (if not MORE) musical training, gift, practice, skill and care as any other instrument that you plug-in, blow into or across or bow or hit, etc.! ...In fact, MANY of the greatest musicians have said (in different ways, at different times) that: "THE reason" (or, ONE of the main ones) that they play what they play or AS they do ...the reason that instrumentalists TRY to create new sound textures is: (even if in a distant way) to mimic or approximate the human voice (to degrees). ...because it is the most versatile, wide-ranging, intricate of ALL instruments. As well as the most INTIMATE and familiar. [Well: I'd say, probably: except when you get around to electric guitars (and sound-ideas based on its existence and what it has done & sounded-like in the past. ... Les Paul WANTED to "be an alien" ...to do stuff that couldn't be done ....and he HAD a human voice, already (Mary Ford), so...maybe not that! 😛🤷😆😆]. It would behoove everyone to understand and remember this. 👍👍👍 {{Although, yes, I'll admit: not "immediately getting" this IS, somehow, "understandable" (as well.- I have NO idea why!!🤷) I spent a long time, for unknown reasons, misunderstanding things, myself....but was *shocked* when I realized and haven't "gone back" since! 🤘🤘}}
I, MUCH, prefer the stuff they were doing on, say: Chaosphere, Catch Thirty-Three ...even, Nothingface. ...this, just, seems like-tread material, to me. ...I would have gone with something like, say: "Mouth Licking What You've Bled" 🤷🤷♀ [Also: Jens vocals??: almost totally pointless.]
Ok guys..enough of this.. want views? This one is sad Queen "I'm going slightly mad" Features Freddie in a haunting character (he was months from death) and he sings is his baritone. Great video and song.

I have never heard anyone say bass is hidden in meshuggah
@@Mia-zv1oy me neither. the bass is anything but hidden, actually is often the loudest guitar in a meshuggah mix.
Mechanical tongues akin too a whispering scream.
Funniest part of watching people listen to meshuggah is seeing 2 different tempos of headbang and both of them being on beat.
So true 😂
Meshuggah, is just essentially a wall of sound designed to make you feel every bit of it.
After seeing them live few months ago, this is the perfect description.
In all my years and shows I have been to, I have never experienced a band the made the air and the ground move and vibrate like these guys can. Just the heaviest band in the world, bar none.

This comment really pisses me off

Can just imagine this song being played live in a night show.... Slayer in Jimmy Kimmel.... Megadeth in Arsenio....
Legend has it that their guitars are powered by black holes
Meshuggah have one of the strongest discographys in metal and indeed music as a whole! Crown jewel of my record collection!
I've blown out speakers to this song... Worth it 🤘🏻
This song is slowly working over my car lol, the subwoofer will rattle it apart, a small turn of a screw at a time.
You. I like you.
The only band I want to see live!
Great review!! You have experienced the groovy funk of Meshuggah in all its glory!!
This man realized he was hearing a polyrhythm without knowing he was hearing a polyrhythm.
Tomas is a beast in the kit
Top 10 all time no question, so innovative
MiB? With this video I always get the impression they gave the cast of Vikings instruments.
Dancers to a discordant system might be a nice next one.
Meshuggah is like the Matrix,,, no matter what u think u hear, it's still 4x4 ;) snare on 3. 1,2,3,4........
BBN baby lets go!!! good shit boys loved the video keep it up!
eye literally couldn't tell any difference between your normal voice and your radio voice ;) one of the greatest ever 'rock' 'pieces'. gods.
the fade is a shame. there is a longer version, but they faded the video.
All three of you headbanging at different times and yet, as always with Meshuggah, all three of you are right
Part of this video was filmed in nyc at the show I was at. They opened up with this after the intro.
Please, please , please play necrophagist “extreme unction”. This band is absolutely technical in its delivery and absolutely genius.
The under tones are very clear in addition to their ability to play
i saw this song live. MAN WAS IT INSANE
How can you not bang your head to this🤟
Guys, I've got something like you've never seen before, her name is Angelina Jordan. She's a Norwegian jazz singer who will blow you away. Try her I put a spell on you, Age 9. I guarantee you will want more. She is something special.

Well, they do.
where's ONE/ on the right hand Cymbal 1,2,snare 4 easy with polies, like TOOL
Take that man's vocal chords to the ER.
You all have some more of that DU DA DUM ? ........great band though \m/
It sounds like you're in a tin can... But that being said, the best drop down ever.
Fuck yeah!
I feel like dude in the blue really only understood the filth he was listening to lol
I don't care about your feelings
Fr tho😂 you should be a radio host
Don't you think Mick Gordon has a lot of influence from Meshuggah when composing the sound for the DOOM BSO?
Honestly I love your radio voice. More please! Read to me baby
Dehumanization by them next?
Shit is too hype. Feels like a Doom song on steroids
why does guy in the middle sound like keanu reeves

If your editor can't keep rhythm... you can't
React to A little piece of heaven by avenged sevenfold
Hahaha... Your regular voice is a great radio voice, but that fake radio voice is TERRIBLE!🤐
This is one of their simplest songs.. not really muxh complicated rhythms. Kinda boring as far as meshuggah goes imo
The only Meshuggah album worth listening to Is Contradictions colappse.. rest is like this tune, boring as hell
Who?
Ok guys..enough of this.. want views?
This one is sad
Queen
"I'm going slightly mad"
Features Freddie in a haunting character (he was months from death) and he sings is his baritone.
Great video and song.
