Lyrics:
Inside. Watching the core
of whatever we had left of our lives
The multiplications divide
We drink to quench the thirst to come
With the bones that we left the trap was sprung
Blind ancient and malevolent. Cosmos divides
The truth is we never ever had truth in sight
We spat on this purpose
We ate of whatever was left
The chasm beneath us will open and swallow the rest
Me the broken cog
You seem to not have understood
Knives out. Strings set in motion
You act like you’re surprised
Pre-emptive strike. Ruin. Chaos. Focus

#MESHUGGAH #Metal #BrokenCog #immutable
Your car not starting on a cold morning.
Most people: Dammit!
Meshuggah: That’s a song
Meshuggah...where chaos comes to take a break
"Why are you late to the studio bro the producer is hourly?" Okay I know but listen to THIS!
bro- my washing machine wrote this beat
So accurate! 😂
Yes, good comment. I concur!
Meshuggah is so dark, but in such an incredibly pure way, not like any other metal. No anger or malice. It is like the darkness of the universe.
Well said.
Agree!
This is so true!!! And when they play live they don’t have to headbang because they are already so tough. 👍🏽🙌🏽
Totally. I recently made a note on my whiteboard that it's not anger, but archetypal cosmic fury.
So you’re saying they are dark matter? Lol
The intro riff is now my new door knocking rhythm.
knock knock knock knock knock. knock knock knock knock knock knock knock knock knock knock knock knock knock. (repeat)
lol 🤣
I Call my mommy following that time signature
I laughed way too hard at this
❤💙💚💛💜
One of the best Meshuggah opening tracks ever. I can't believe after 3 decades they still sound fresh and exciting in the metal world.
Yes I agree. This really sets the whole tone of the album beautifully. Not to say I don't like other Meshuggah album openers. All of their tracks are fucking amazing.
Genuinely GOATed
Why?
@@peanutschatzie4129 Because VSOR was laborious.
@@Pragnantweggyboard O:
Meshuggah is and will always be my favourite Jazz band!
Kinda true, innit?
is the ending 3/4 on top of 7/8? LBVS
😂
The real ones know.
My favorite christian jazz band forsure
Strange how a band can be so heavy yet somehow so relaxing at the same time. You could legit meditate to some of their songs
Probably because their music isn't eager to constantly grab your attention, their music has a general groove that can be relaxing contrary to music that tries hard to surprise you endlessly.
It's the mind-numbing repetition and polyrhythms that put you in a sort of trance that is unlike any other band.
100% facts. Ppl laugh at me when I say metal can be meditative. No one believes me 🥲
I have the same feeling, is brutal but at same time calm and relaxing, don't know how to explain lol
I do meditate to their music. “Broken Cog” is great for that
This song alone, was worth the 6 year gap. So haunting and eerie, and the whispering vocals, are so fitting. It's the sound of society collapsing around us.
Never seen it like that but I can definitely hear what you mean...
It's been six years? I remember mastering screaming to the last CD omg
We didn't start the fire, it was always burning since the world was turning. I like juice!
Not only society…
Reality.
exactly what I got out of it too :,]
it's so cool that Meshuggah became one of the greatest metal bands of ALL TIME! and they fucking earned it!
How do they still sound this great? This song is phenomenal. I literally can't stop listening to it. Masterpiece
Because they take their time to deliver us great releases
@@teebubbles6408 as painful as the wait is, it’s worth it
@@teebubbles6408 RIGHTT
Not hard when every song is the same sounds over and over and over again
@@teebubbles6408 which do you think is worse hurting humans or hurting dogs
Love the atmospheric passages. So much colour & texture & mood. Feels primal & elemental.
A lot of immutable sounds remind me of their Catch 33 production
I really enjoyed the last 40 seconds of it. Can't explain why
Hey, i know you!
This is the most Meshuggah the band ever sounded and it's still fresh and original.
but also they`re going back at some parts wich is about time, i missed the old meshuggah/thordendal vibes
They have bee devolving since obzen
@@adino20 Let 'em bee
@@adino20 I know what you mean. I still enjoy this album, but it's been missing something the less Fredrik has been involved.
Hold your horses...that is just not right AND not true , at all.
When they opened with this song at rock city Nottingham, it was unbelievable, felt so other worldly, I felt like I was gaining some power, what a show that was.
i was there! amazing performance! first time ive seen them live and it was such an awesome feeling when this song kicked in
@@TomFowkes When the riff hits...god I can't wait to see it.
Same for me in Paris. The only difference being that I was kinda drunk during the whole concert so it really felt like I was attending a mass at a church of the apocalypse lmao
I've felt that power
Best gig I've been to in years. What an incredible night. Crowd were on point too!
This song makes me want to find all the lids to my tupperware
R u nuts?
@@PanHoover I know it's a dangerous mission
You cannot succeed. It's like trying to pair all your socks - at least one will be missing.
@@tubthump You just gave Meshuggah a new concept album idea. It'll reach them through the collective unconscious through acid-trippers listening to Meshuggah and coming into Jen's and Tomas's dreams.
It makes me want to go fishing in a closet...
Song is so fucking good, love atmospheric meshuggah
Same... more ominous sound to me than outright heavy meshugga, somehow makes it scarier
Agreed. I'd love to hear them do more of this style. Fukin monstrous!!
"Shed/The Hurt That Finds You First" - revised and expanded edition. Loving it!
opening riff sounds like an evolution of Down with the sickness
@@watermelon2448
Only 100X better 🔥🔥🔥
Meshuggah has transcended metal.
🖖🏽🖖🏽🔥🔥
nope
@@Pirustae L
Meshuggah has transcended MUSIC
Meshuggas is THE muzac!
If you've never seen Meshuggah live, do yourself a favour and do it.
There is nobody like them, true avant garde... It's like being fed through a machine for two hours. They never disappoint
Saw them open for Tool around 2004-ish. The crowd was completely stoic and in utter disbelief. Of course I was rocking out because I was already in to them. They were and are way ahead of their time. They’ve been the favorite band of Adam Jones for quite some time.
Yep, going to see them in September for the first time. Super excited \m/
Going to see them in May, cant wait for the experience of being in the pit when they play Bleed
I agree. When they're in my country I always try to go. Unique experience!
@@GolfTool
2002 to be exact. I was so excited to see Meshuggah open for Tool during the Lateralus era but instead we got Tomahawk, Mike Patton's band 😂😂
Best album since Obzen. I cannot believe people complained about the mix when the singles were released. The tone in this album is INSANE.
Koloss was pretty good
@@didgeteria9068 too compressed. This album is missing allot of the higher frequencies. For me the perfect production was ObZen. Not complaining though. Just my opinion.
@@alee7275 so you want beautiful songs all the time . Nah man that's just too main stream....look what happened with Obzen. All ppl still talk about is bleed . I mean Obzen started with one of their best most explosive songs and no one talks about it . Meanwhile , 14 fucking years have gone by . That's a long time . Dude Meshuggah isn't Slayer who's music never changed but Meshuggah is still here still playing . And constantly delivering. You might only love the beautiful tunes and guitar riffs but the truth is if you ask the band members , Obzen might not even be their favorite work . They've released that album as a hook to bring more people to the genre , and why a bridge . They brought ppl...some only stayed for Obzen and moved on , some stayed...i stayed . Chaosphere is a really good album , catch 33 is probably my favorite Meshuggah album . Yes i said it .
Get used to it , there will be only one Obzen . Koloss reassured that some of the ppl who were on that bridge actually crossed it . After koloss and before Obzen . That's where Meshuggah really is . Obzen is Wonderful don't get me wrong i fucking love that album , but i know there is so much more to Meshuggah. All Meshuggah albums are different and there lies the beautiful madness of it all. Always immutable, Meshuggah , never the same.
@@didgeteria9068 koloss is my favourite.
@@JDUBBY08 really good Album
This song will turn your speakers into air conditioners
The Lateralus man has evolved!
well im here cuz of that so your comment must be true haha
Try not to headbang challenge: lost
True
Try to catch the rhythm: also lost
Try to headband: Lost
@@mukhanovP Just follow dat snare
@@mukhanovP 175bpm 4/4 lol
This Band is a gift to the world
Cd just arrived on my doorstep! Listened digitally all night but I'm psyched to hear on my sound system. I've been a fan since 96 and I love what they did on this album! Definitely can't tell they are actually in their mid 50s. Damn Girl!!!
Rock on, brother. Keep the "old ways" alive. Physical media is the only way to preserve the past. Digitization can allow for an altered truth.
@@TheReapersSon And cheap, dull, mediocre copies of things that must not be replicated that way (like this kind of music).
Oh damn you got yours already!? I’m still waiting for mine. 😂
Oh no shit
I just barely found them in high school like 8 years ago
What kind of sound system do you have? I'm looking to upgrade. I'd love to find a good quality system that can hold multiple cds as well as bluetooth.
I think this should have been the first single for the album, it would be fire!
agreed
If you watch this music video you'll see it IS, fire.
I was going to say the same thing! Definitely better than the others tbh. The vocals are so good.
Imagine the teaser with just like 10 seconds or less of that intro 🤯🤯🤯 loving this album so far still tho!!!!!!!! Hellsyes!!!
Many wouldn't get it bar the long term fan so I think the singles that were released are simply more accessible
the sheer gravity and weight that the riff at 3:02 has is uncalled for. it makes me feel like im in the presence of some ancient deity.
🎉
When you pass from this mortal coil, ignore the lesser light and continue to move towards the pure light. Do not run from it, do not run towards it. Allow it to envelope you. Ignore the lesser light, move towards the bright light.
Hundreds of bands try - but no one, literally NO ONE. Does it - Like MESHUGGAH!
I like my sound being similar. I wouldn't want to copy meshuggah. They are their own. Just as much as I want to be my own.
@@therichardnogginproject9012 Exactly that, there are FANTASTIC bands who are influenced but have their own sounds
Hundreds?
How did you come up with that stupid statistic?
@@5orgen51 Sounds like you took that personally.
I love this album. Fucking insane rhythms.
I agree!!! I was worrying the last 2 days that it was going to be a letdown because what people were saying, but thankfully my gut was right all along! Flawless album 🔥 this by the way is my favourite track.
@@trfmusic902 I have been listening to Kaleidoscope and Ligature Marks on repeat since this morning.
I already love it!! So far it’s album of the year for me. I don’t know my favorite tracks yet but I’ll know the more times I listen to it. 🔥🔥🔥🔥👍🏽🙌🏽☺️😉😊
BRUTAL!! IS ANYONE SURPRISED!??!! NO!!😃
@@jasonsargent5030 Not me!! I thought it was going to be a straight forward but I was wrong. 😊
Transcends normal music,
feels like meditation listening to this band
Happy 10th Anniversary to Koloss! Having this release today makes it even more special absolutely fantastic album 🔥🔥
Woah, I didn’t even realize it’s been that long
@@benwilkonski8635 time flies with meshuggah 🔥
10 years??? Holy shit time really flies ...
@@razorbladethorax doesnt it just and sounds just as good today! Demiurge awesome track 🔥
Koloss > Immutable
This band makes me realise how insignificant I am in the universe, but glad that I'm able to experience consciousness.
Sick. I like the riffs.
If that is what you seek you should listen to Tool. The entire Lateralus album, start to finish.
If you listen, they're telling you you're part of the eternity of universe
@@EdgarPoe_Raven I've read the lyrics. It's also a philosophical concept. Even if we're a part of the infinity of the universe, and we chose to personify it, I don't think it would care.
@@cj2375 A recurring theme in the world, Mao said as much regarding the prospect of China facing nuclear annihilation. On your initial comment, I really enjoyed "Behind the Sun" for a similar sensation: like coming around a vast and eternal corner, turning, never completing the turn, never seeing what's around the corner, forever draped in the suspense of 'what unknown will emerge from that which is unending?'.
Meshuggah is other dimensional. They don't sound like angry teenagers with big speakers.
I've been avoiding listening to the advance tracks they put out beyond a cursory listen to bits and pieces.You really need to listen to a full album front to back to get the big picture.Took the day off from work so I can buy the album and immerse myself in the great world of Meshuggah.Been a long wait for new material.
And man was it worth the wait
Dude I was having the same issue with the newest deftones album. I'm a huge deftones fan they're like my 3rd favorite band ever behind meshuggah and fear factory, but the deftones release in my opinion were kinda weak songs. Then after listening to the entire album thr singles released made way more sense and it became my favorite deftones album. Hoping that happens here for meshuggah
I didn't listen to anything prior the final release! What a experience!
i listened to the whole thing on repeat today without looking at tracks. It all flows really well and it was hard forr me to recognize where in the album i was until this song came back. enjoying it a ton
It’s a great album love it
This is one of the most badass songs Meshuggah has ever released
I am 70 yrs old and i love this
hell yah man. ppl like you give me no fear of getting older
And you might live to be at least 100 because you love this ;-)
@@Ingremance thanks
70 going on 27, keep her lit boi!
Im 61 and wearing my meshuggah t 👕 proudly
Love the direction they took. More melody and harmony, even some fusion sounding stuff, love the instrumental tracks, whispered vocals are awesome, and overall they're still crushing and extreme.
you don't listen to alot of meshuggah lol
@@adino20 Isn't that cute, but it's wrong!
You're probably very good at misinterpreting
@@SchnitzelKraft Dude they've had more melody and harmony in the past
@@adino20 I think they do more interesting stuff on this record than they have done since 1998. Nearly every song has melodic overdubs, loads of layered guitar leads, etc. What album was more melodic? Last time Fredik played more than 3 jazz chords in a row was on DEI. Now God He Sees in Mirrors features a cool chord progression. Most of their albums have been 95% chugging/solo/chugging, occasionally with some simple leads thrown in. I'm sure they've done more with melody/harmony this time.
@@SchnitzelKraft there are moments on this album which are very melodic and chill (the instrumental track and the closure which I honestly really like because everything else is just the shittiest most boring riffs they have ever made) but everything else you said is just wrong. There is as much layered guitars as every other record, only this time they back up the least harmonious and melodic riffs they've ever made. Everything before Obzen had really cool diminished and whole tone harmony injected into all the riffs but now it's straight open note chuggs and realllly ugly chromatic riffs. I mean are you seriously glamming on the 10 second harmony in the middle of god he sees in mirrors as an example of more melody and harmony in meshuggah???? IT LASTS LIKE 10 SECONDS and is surrounded by horrible, basic riffs like every song on this terrible album.
🔥 And more TODAY! @ 3 pm EDT / 9 pm CET / 8 pm GMT Frank Godla of Metal Injection will be hosting the inaugural broadcast on stationhead.com/meshuggah taking live questions and is talking to Tomas Haake while listening together to the new #MESHUGGAH album #Immutable - TUNE IN!🤘🔥 🔥🔥
I love you :)
Yes!!!!!
Would love to hear it, but fuck apple music.
Thank you!
I dig the visuals, I don’t think Meshuggha is capable of writing a bad song. They all kick major ass.🤘🔥
One of the heaviest bands in the history of mankind never used a curse word on their lyrics.
who the fuck cares about curse words mate xD
You think words are bad? What are you 5?
@@Jaldonado1994 Words are evil. Stop using them. >:C
Well they have in some older songs but I see your point, they've stopped and it's barely in any songs. It takes wisdom to convey a powerful message without words like that
@@davecrupel2817
This isn’t a word

Meshuggah is one of those rare bands that can be said to have consistently improved with each album. Some bands have peaks and valleys, but Meshuggah's career has been a steady climb to a summit illuminated by a black sun.
That breakdown in the middle certainly made my eyes tear up. So beautifully rhythmic!
Dude I started shaking, I almost couldn't contain myself. Such a fucking sick breakdown.
Dude I know. Was blasting it on my stereo and was getting all teary and intense. Amazing track in general
They know just where to put the break down for maximum impact, it's brutal
😭😭😭❤❤❤
I had to get out of my car and start twerking in lunch time traffic. Made a lot of enemies that day.
3:03 my heart explodes. Fucking amazing.
So many other bands struggle to maintain their initial sound. Meshuggah succeeds where others simply cannot. What an amazing video too. Love these guys.
Ik there two different genres but what about korn, there new album was amazing imo, it was pretty surreal looking back on there old music and then hearing the new musics evolution
@@DisLikedLoverOnTheMoon15 Why on earth would you put MESHUGGAH and Korn on the same conversation
Hey, they aren’t on the same level as Meshuggah, but Korn is also a really good band
@@arsonravengarcia8370 Because they gave birth to a baby called Nemertines, and you'll wanna check out Nemertines.
Huge respect to you vfx-team. Awesome. Waiting for HQ
Crazy how music like this used to freak me out but now I literally almost fell asleep to this.. it makes me forget about my depression and trauma and I love it.
Best album since obZen. Awesome stuff.
I think TVSOR is better than Obzen tbh, but yea this is an amazing album. Definitely in my top 3 Meshuggah albums and goes without saying in top 3 of all albums, because all three are Meshuggah albums xD
This record is so fucking insane!! It punches you in the face right off the bat. After hearing the singles I thought this one was going to be more straight forward but I’m glad I am wrong (although nothing wrong with being simple sometimes). Broken Cog is definitely an epic opener but I think They Move Below would’ve been better IMO. 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥☺️😉😊👍🏽🙌🏽
It's like a trick, the singles kinda lowered my expectations somehow. I didn't think they sounded great either. Then today I listened to the whole album on Spotify and boy was I wrong. This is a good album.
@@reezlaw yeah exactly! 👍🏽
I didn't get those vibes at all. Knew it was gonna be killer all along !
@@reezlaw Same, singles didn't do much to me either, although I liked the sound. But I was very pleasantly surprised how atmospheric the whole album was - very reminiscent of "Catch 33" and, oddly enough, of Morbid Angel's "Gateways to Annihilation". Superheavy, dark, warm and cozy :^)
I've just seen them live in France 2 hours ago.. Damn what a band
The violent sleep of reason: They can't get any heavier than this.
Meshuggah: Hold our fears!
More like “hold our guitars”. 🖤
They didn't though. TVSOR was better and hit harder.
They’ve only gotten worse since obzen. That was their last good record
that was a much better album than this 😕
@@mattdubya1037 it's only a matter of opinion. Sorry to hear you feel that way.
*It's the band that should be in Art History books (data) for the next century!*

Change my mind..
Hint: You won't.
I'll try 😄 Ne Obliviscaris
I've been jamming this one and Ligature Marks ALL DAY!!!!
Phantoms too. Scratch that, more like the whole album lol

Apenas vi que publicaron el álbum Ligature Marks fue la primera que busqué. Dios!!! Qué delicia de riffs!!
*They move below* is where I've got to. Can't wait to listen to the rest.
My 2 favourites
Incredible! This Meshuggah level of music is One Of A kind, with capitals. Hundreds of bands have tried to copy their style without being able to capture the Real Essence. Pure Genuineness.
No one tries to copy meshuggah lol
@@adino20 What pray tell is the entire genre of djent then?
@@adino20 I try to capture the vibe of bands like Meshuggah when I want to create a brutal breakdown
@@Pragnantweggyboard If djent is a copy of Meshuggah's sound then they did a terrible job
@@Tarpull what bands sound like meshuggah? there aren't any
The guy from Tools Parabola took some acids again.

3:01 hits my soul. Every fucking time. That shit is transcendental
Same. That riff is perfectly delivered
If I choked to death on that groove, it wouldn't be a bad way to die.
Umm, ok
you are a simple man
These men are legends. I’ve been listening to “Immutable” non stop since it just came out. This was a great opening song to set the tone of what you’re about to experience listening to it.
There's nothing more powerful than this band.
they are in a class of their own, the band is in their 50s and still make kick ass music
There is a very fearsome, terrifying, staggeringly massive power you're forgetting to acknowledge.
Para todos lo que dicen que el metal no tiene nada interesante
Que vean esto...
Messhuggah no falla
Una obra maestra. Una atmósfera que solo Meshuggah logra crear. Y pensar que fueron influencia para Tool.
Como el güen güisky escocés. No falla
4:25 hearing Jens scream after whispering up until that point gets me pumped. Then the whispering at the end makes it even harder.
Tomas is the one who's whispering, not Jens.
@@maxcarnage6962 This is how you weed out reviews, the ones who talk about Jens "whispering" haven't heard any other albums and don't know what's going on.
My grandma used to sing me this song when I was a little child to make me fall asleep
Me too ! Its nice to be coddled !!
Sleep now chi-yild!! 😈
Yeah, it's the fate of every true folk, punk, metal or old-young fart of classical music that we have to sing to our offspring for generations so they don't get sick of the crazy artificial pop that would otherwise be drummed into their heads and ruin their lives. You'll be singing lullabies too.
she is de best grandma in th world, she knows sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet..........
grandma knows best
This band is just unique. It’s like the concentrated cold, darkness, irresistibility, hostility and the all-deafening silence of the indifferent chaos we live in.
Imagine writing this and not cringing to death.

Accurate. Cringe, but accurate.
Indeed so!
@@razmatazz9310 I bet you cringe even when reading to meshuggah's lyrics
Careful! This song raises the dead and I now have 3 zombies knocking at my door trying to get in. They kept asking for more sugar or something.
Meshuggah and opeth were the bands that made me able to tolerate growling vocals. And I'm damn glad they did. Imagine not being able to enjoy this?
I can't deal with Opeth. There's absolutely nothing I like :(
Growling vocals? That's screaming.Cannibal Corpse ir growling vocals.
@@Unrest777 Ever heard older Opeth or the Bloodbath album with Mikael Akerfeldt? He rips the growls
@@Unrest777, Blackwater Park era Mikael Åkerfelt is the definition of growling imo. The best I’ve ever heard
Completely agree!
This song draws me back almost every day.
A fresh new pack of MESHUGGAH. Excellent!
This album hits so hard. I think the ending of Phantoms is maybe my favourite Meshuggah section ever. Eargasms aplenty.
this album is some of Meshuggah's best work yet
You think? I'm trying to familiarize with the snare sound.
@@campoacceso6892 Snare sound is fucking beast, you need a good audio system. Sounds like a damn gunfire in my ears and I love it
@@thewildhealer541 my audio system is "immutable" and dull, i'll do what i can with a pair of pro headphones. I tried with studio monitor speaker but that wasn't fun: the bass in this record is huuugely low, and the snare disappeared. Not easy to choose the right source to listen to this "object" :D
It’s actually their worse. They’ve been in obvious decline since kollos. Everything feels so forced compared to previous albums

Broken Cog Lyrics
[Verse 1: Tomas Haake]
Inside
Watch the core
Of whatever we had left of our lives
The multiplications divide
We drink to quench the thirst to come
With the bones that we left the trap was sprung
[Verse 2: Tomas Haake]
Blind, ancient and malevolent
Cosmos divides
The truth is we never ever had truth in sight
We spat on this purpose
We ate of whatever was left
The chasm beneath us will open and swallow the rest
[Verse 3: Jens Kidman]
Me the broken cog
You seem to not have understood
Knives out
Strings set in motion
You act like you're surprised
Pre-emptive strike
Ruin
Chaos
Focus
[Outro: Tomas Haake]
Whispers, murmurs, voices, voices
Whispers, purpose, voices, murmurs
Whispers, murmurs, voices, voices
Whispers, murmurs, voices, purpose
The reason why, to my ears, no other band manages to play this kind of music in a way that I like, is that Meshuggah are the only ones (that I know) that have such a thorough understanding of the technical aspects that they can manage to make complex ideas sound logical and, most importantly, feel great. Like, yeah cool that you're djenting in 5/8 with an unpredictable rhythm or whatever, but it seldomly sounds like anything beyond a personal wankfest. _THIS band_ , this song, there's a groove, a story, a vibe I can get behind! Great stuff!
You need to listen to more music then.... There are several who do the same thing, except Better!
Listen to Animals as Leaders, and come back to me with a different perspective...

Have been listening to Meshuggah since 2006. Saw them live in 2012. Their music has aged so well. This is no ordinary metal music.
My favorite Jazz fusion band.
If only Hollywood could make their movies look like this, things would finally become interesting again. It's crazy how it all fits with the artwork and the songs. They still reign supreme...
Pretty sure they have...Guardians 2 Kurt Russel comes to mind immediately
Makes me want to break into my neighbours house and toast all his bread.
copycat'd from elsewhere but G(old) anyways

Wow, stunning, incredible and beautiful video!!
Dude, fuck yeah! This is already my third favorite Meshuggah album of all time, and they've been my favorite band since Nothing (20 years, Jesus Christ). Hype af for this video
This is soothing, has so much atmospheric elements which I love.
BTW, this reminded me of Ruins of Beverast.
Meshuggah never disappoints, aging like fine wine!
ruins is so under appreciated.
Great ear! Has that eeriness for sure. Love Beverast.
I googled "I've been diagnosed with arthritis and debilitating systemic neuropathy. What's next?" and it took me to this music video
It feels like the vocals take the lead in this song. The instrumentation seems to have been written around the vocal structure. Seems to be unique for Meshuggah, at least to me. I'm digging it!
hardly any vocals here bud lol
How could anyone tell what is written around what? I feel like it could be either way
@@jonc8561 tbh there's a perfect amount of vocals for this track. It gives this awesome ass instrumental room to shine while keeping a mysterious and dark vibe
Why can't it work both ways? Which is does.
This is overall just an awesome anti-smoking video.

@@AlexdeJesusR down
Not seeing many comments about how relatable the video is, so amazing. Keep breathing.
I like when there's a growling whisper in their songs, it's like the calm before the storm.
When “That riff” kicks in around the 3 min mark my goooddd 🔥🔥🔥
It seems I'm going to pass the anatomy class. Thanks Meshuggah.
I listened to this song for the first time on my way to work this morning. I nearly wrecked my car from headbanging when the riff hit at around 3 minutes. Insane tune and DEFINITELY one of my favorites from the band
Best song on the album to me.
great tune, but too early to pick the best song. There are too many good songs in the album
@@pablotrujillofierro4435 I hear you, but i did listen to the whole album before saying it was the best song.
never thought i would be able to get into music this heavy until i heard this song
So many people used to talk shit about this band when i was in high school in 2007-2011. Making fun of me listening to Meshuggah when i ran in track and cross country. I love that they are still kicking ass and helping everyone cope with the world. I feel bad for the people not open to how powerful this band is. Thanks to Tomas Haake for writing the lyrics for all their songs. Rock on 🤘
I had the complete opposite experience, when I was in university most of my mates didn’t even liked metal and whenever we hung out we got this thing called “Meshuggah time” when they allowed me to put the heaviest songs and the guys just groove with it. Since we are from Latin America most of them only listen to reggaetón and Latin trap or else, all of them bow in respect of Meshuggah
God I love my squad ❤
I started jamming with um on first EP and all my friends thought they suck been a fan ever since my friends said they would never make it so fuck my friends
Have you considered introducing your friends to a steam roller?
I like how you comment about Tomas writing *all* the lyrics on a video that literally states Mårten wrote this.
@chuckh9168 oh wow I didn't realize that. Thanks for the heads up
I set this as my alarm through Spotify.
There's a small delay between the vibration and the song itself and everytime I hear the phone vibrate I rockeт out of bed to turn it off before I bring the building down. 10/10 sleep conditioning
I love how every Meshuggah album always starts with it's best song!
Great slow build up, groovy and heavy, great
The album is absolutely amazing. Much love ❤
Meshuggah captures the energy of what being a primal ancestor must have felt like.
Astonishing.
Such a badass song and video. And The first song I've heard from them. What a great introduction! I've been missing out.
Been a fan since destroy erase improve. They never fail to deliver.
I listened that album so many times on my Cd Player. Good time ! Go See them live and you will be amazed.
@@pablotoes1925I'd like to.
This is how they opened the show this tour. Just standing in front of red backgrounds. So fucking dark and light at the same time. No one is heavier.
Their videos are almost as mind boggling as their music, just pure epicness..
you seen their new vid? you may wanna reconsider that statement...
@@user-ju6zx3rm8d
Ya, I was highly disappointed with that one.
These people have managed to shake off all human aggression and brutality from within and have come to create pure movement of thought and energy. Like ancient martial art masters, creating their own movements with unique intent. This simply is, beauty of existence. ❤
It's like they attract aggression and use its momentum to redirect it into awe and appreciation
Some of their older lyrics from DEI, for instance, had a sociopolitical bent to them, expressed angrily.
they peaked at Obzen. except for the clean songs(which sounded like Animals as Leaders)this album was underwhelming for me. they need Fredrik Thordendal back
@@mattdubya1037 While your opinion is dog shit, you are entitled to it
@@mattdubya1037 Fredrick did some lead work on the album apparently, but I agree with you.
For me, this is the first album that meshuggah made where THEIR sound is influenced by others rather than forging a new path before others.
10 minute djent instrumental, that felt typical and meshuggah should never/has never felt typical before.
I like the album, but it doesn't reach the levels that others are hyping it up to be, for me.
Most metal bands song making process: guitar player says I have a cool riff, put drums and bass to it.
Meshuggah's method: guys, I saw this really complex algebraic formula the other day, it sounded like this....
Dude, I literally had a dream just like this years ago: I was in this 3D space of infinitely many 3x3x3 meter rooms, each with a version of me getting tortured in an infinite variety of ways. Right before I woke up, a voice said "hell is a multiverse". I must have been listening to too much Meshuggah. Or not enough?
People's dreams are so interesting.
Who owns the multiverse?
Interesting
