@@bernardi5919 yes, Rivers of Nihil is great, especially that album as thats the one where they felt matured and ready to try out some progressive stuff, plus "The Sax Band" nickname came from that album.
@jonny j It absolutely does not sound as good. The original album came out in 1998, and it sounds like recording guitars through tin cans compared to what's possible today. The RELOADED version is a huge step up, but it still sounds pretty dry. This version is super smooth and has a really fleshed out low end profile that sounds a lot like Violent Sleep of Reason.
yeah the shovel sounds fuckin awesome but the vocals aren't as good, all in all I still prefer the original but holy shit rob, the clarinet player (and the vocalist too) did the song justice
Septic_Blue _Syra In reality I think that he uses some breathing technique like circular breathing or something. Didgeridoo players are famous for infinite drone sounds
yeah, you can see him using circular breathing specifically at 2:18, you can watch his chest rise while he's forcing the air with his cheeks. I've been playing clarinet for 9 years and still haven't gotten it down. That man has put in his practice hours.
The shovel and clarinet solo were absolutely brilliant, but fuck me Leo’s vocals are actually PERFECT here, I never realised his vocals could be so raw and brutal
as another commenter here before I'll reiterate; "Came for shovel,stayed for vocals." Leo,I fucking love your vocals in this vid. Please do more heavy shit,that'd be awesome :D Also,clarinet xD \m/ EDIT: Grammaaaaarz

my god that solo.... props to the clarinet player the air support to switch octaves that cleanly is incredible edit: was he using circular breathing??? I am scared
A Meshuggah Scenario: Guy: So... What is this song's time signature? Haake: Uhh, well.. 5/4, I mean -- 6/8 -- no, 8/11... Well It's Meshuggah. Guy: The Time Signature is just Meshuggah? Haake: yes. Just.. Meshuggah.
TMmodify Yeah, I've noticed that. But what I like about Koloss is how the guitars are 5/4 (I think?) And the drums are 4/4. Makes the sound really unique. ( I may have those wrong)
not sure why i noticed, probably the herb but its pretty amazing how that dude playing the clarinet played that entire solo while breathing in and out. Is that some kind of fancy clarinet technique so you never have to stop playing to breathe?
My dream is to, one day, be so cool that anything I do is automatically awesome... you know, like playing djent with a shovel or make a clarinet sound badass!
This was part of a playlist of Meshugguh I had going, and for most of the song I legit just heard it as the normal song, without even realizing what it actually was. Bravo Rob
@Tellman 23 Sure can do. Icelandic would be the only language that is a bit harder to understand for other scandinavian countries. But norwegian, swedish and danish people can pretty much have a full on conversation with one another in their respective languages. :D
That would open a whole big can of legal worms. You can't sell a song written by someone else that you performed, it's highly illegal. Unless they want to pay royalties to Meshuggah in return, then they could do it if Meshuggah agreed.
Every now and then when I've had a bad week or whatever I will click into this and listen to it like 20 times in a row and just like scrape my brain clean.
Awesome cover guys. I about pissed myself laughing when the flaming lead clarinet came in. lmfao!! I've been watching both Rob and Leo for a while now and never am I left unimpressed. Best stuff on the tube.
This is awesome, vocals and the deeper tone of the riffs are just nasty! I'll be listening to this version of the song tonight at work on repeat. It also happens to be one of my fav Meshuggah tracks.
New Millenium Cyanide Christ was probably the very first Meshuggah song I heard back in the day. Way back 😂. Dope song and dope cover! Entire mix sounds phenomenal
Holy fuck that clarinet solo was the gnarliest shit.
Caleb is fuckin' legit with his clarinet playing.
He's covered Necrophagist with one, he's fucking insane

i assume youve seen the music video?
2:11 Vsauce plays clarinet for 13 minutes without taking a breath
Circular breathing is a wonderful thing...

CC Normally you can tell when people are doing circular breathing. Dudes cheeks didn’t move hardly at all. Even his circular breathing was impressive.
he breath by nose while keeping air pocket in mouth you see his chest moving
they basicly can go nonstop if they wish
@@gabrielahimsa4387 nobody needed an explanation for circular breathing
Thank you for *basically* remastering one of Meshuggah's best songs.
@jonny j It absolutely does not sound as good. The original album came out in 1998, and it sounds like recording guitars through tin cans compared to what's possible today. The RELOADED version is a huge step up, but it still sounds pretty dry. This version is super smooth and has a really fleshed out low end profile that sounds a lot like Violent Sleep of Reason.
Yeah honestly this version sounds pretty amazing. Compressed a little too hard, but definitely nicer than the original
Found a non compressed remaster. th-cam.com/video/tTM_ltQf6-A/w-d-xo.html
@jonny j Get your ears checked, this is without a doubt a better recording and mix than the original.
yeah the shovel sounds fuckin awesome but the vocals aren't as good, all in all I still prefer the original but holy shit rob, the clarinet player (and the vocalist too) did the song justice
When a fucking shovel sounds better than your guitar. >_
Don't forget fluff re-amps Rob's D.I. track through some of the best metal amps in the world. And then mixes the whole song.
lemme guess, line 6 spider?
AHHAHAHAHAH you wish.
Yep , his amp is way better than mine , plus editing mixing the audio ,but I think you get where my humor is coming from.
I built a two string bass out of a shovel and it sounded better than my Jazz bass. It was really sad but also great
The clarinetist has some iron lungs, holy shit
Pasquale Vaccaro yeah, how did he not pass out during that solo?!
Septic_Blue _Syra
In reality I think that he uses some breathing technique like circular breathing or something.
Didgeridoo players are famous for infinite drone sounds
Definitely circular breathing. You can see he uses his lungs to take in more breath
So I'm assuming he has a bit of air in his cheeks.
yeah, you can see him using circular breathing specifically at 2:18, you can watch his chest rise while he's forcing the air with his cheeks. I've been playing clarinet for 9 years and still haven't gotten it down. That man has put in his practice hours.

yeah it was fucking brutal
Leo's fry vocals are ridiculous. Check out his cover of LoG's Blacken the Cursed Sun. It has the greatest 6 seconds on the internet.
Better than the original
It makes me want to listen to some older Vildhjarta man!

Crysis Music have you ever heard about MOOSE ON? this mad Russian mens are doing really funny stuff, like guitar from microwave.
Came for shovel, stayed for vocals
Agreed, Leo kills the vocals man! \m/-_-\m/
Leo is so fucking talented hes a one- man- band.He and Rob are the guys wich motivate me to practise my shit.
Eddie Gustafsson i dare say this better than the original, in terms of production and performance.
Came for shovel, stayed for clarinet
yeaaa....no just no.
This was how I was introduced to Meshuggah, now I’m a massive fan.
we can say you're digging 'em
In a way same. These shovel videos made me take a look past “Bleed”
note for note clarinet solo was fucking sick.
It was sikh indeed.
Sean Dennis it was on fucking point
There's gotta be an appropriate Squidward meme for that solo somewhere.
That guy has covered fermented offal discharge and multiple other necrophagist song WITH SOLOS on clarinet as well.
Damn, frog leap's vocals are insane on this one
New Millennium Shovel Christ
A shovel and a clarinet
*Does it gets more metal than that?*
no
Gabriel Nardin Music Add enough trumpets and tubas... BAM! The metal has evolved into brass.
Don't forget a little shot glass, that's where it all comes from!
Let Phil Anselmo play that clarinet

I'd pay $5 to see Anselmo play that clarinet during the solo.
came for the shovel stayed for the squid ward solo.

Carl Courson ikr I thought the same 😂
how come a shovel have more sustain than my actual guitar?
Because it's made of *metal*
@Shawn Camburn that's actually the reason, no jokes.
TheDarklander II why don't we make metal guitars then?..
@@Elfcheg ease of manufacturing wood, reduced weight, different acoustic properties of wood
There are more factors that contribute to the overall sustain of a guitar too:
- type and hardness of woods used to make a guitar
- 'rigidity' of construction - set neck Vs bolt-on
Elfcheg some of the first electric guitars were made of metal. Look up “frying pan electric guitar”

Sir, you are genius!
dont be a jerk
As a metalhead AND a clarinetist, I absolutely approve.
Also is he using a rock as a pick? Lol
Good thing you only need 1 string to play most of the Meshuggah songs!
SEiMEi I'd like to see you play of them
DryZe it was a joke.
my life too
that'sthejoke.jpg.
lol! :)
bad thing that it needs to be 9th string
This is so awesome. Leo's vocals are great!!
Came back here just to share that this is the video that sent me on the downward spiral into heavy metal.
Thanks for making me look crazy
Leo's vocals are INSANE on this one...
So good.
"Mr. Tentacles, that's your cue"
2:10
Meanwhile I actually have a 7-string and I still can't get this song down.
Maybe you need 8 Strings....
: P
Youll get it one day....
it's all in the rhythm.
only problem the rhythm is written by a fucking maniac.
Try an air guitar, it may be a good choice, yet for Mugi-chan a keyboard would be better.
i dont have much guitar playing skill but i can play this song only because ive listened to it so many times the pattern is engraved in my brain
Youre missing the clarinet, friend.
Honestly, not the biggest Meshuggah fan, but damn are Leo's vocals incredible!
Rob, you've got some awesome tones for a shovel!

It's just 4/4 though. :)

Circular breathing. I think it's used for reeds and woodwinds.
@@zongo2460 you can also circular breathe on brass instruments, but it's incredibly difficult. (Not that woodwind circular breathing is any easier).

This is definitely the best video I've seen on this website hands down.
Out of all shovel vids, so far this one is my favorite.
I had to come back to this after the recent Meshovel video because the vocals on this one are infinitely better.
Damn Leo is a beast on those vocals!
This made me want to listen to Static-X. Great stuff, guys!
Gzus Meshuggah is better
*I FucKiNg LoVe ThIs!!!* Amazing plow on that shovel, and Leo's vocals are on POINT! So impressed, great work to everyone involved💖
i normally dont like leos vocals but he killed it here
Dante ikr
Dante I still think those contact lenses are a bit overkill
Dante because he's doing an actual metal song this time (instead of a pop song cover)
check out his older bands, lowdown and zerozonic you'll see how brutal is vocals are, you can see it in his covers and ending songs too
Dante He's a pretty gnarly vocalist, just doesn't present those abilities as much.
I wasn't liking this, but that clarinet solo... ridiculously good
iamdb1990 Squidward is pretty good after all!
I think it's the guy who made Necrophagist clarinet covers.
Solos included.
I honestly thought you were kidding about the clarinet lol
he put a link to the clarinet person in the description i think if you'd like to check him out!
I thought you joking .. until .. Da Fuq!
My favorite Messhugah song…. And I’ll listen to this one over the original every time… for years now! You guys killed it.

sick. but why re-do the breakdown? that's the nutshot of the song!
i agree
Agreed.
Agreed
I....what?!...this is insane... Leo and Rob you are both animals!
I'm literally LMAO at your Jens Kidman face, it was so fucking spot on.
everytime this song (original one) comes up on my playlists now, i have to stop it, and put this video on instead... its so good!
I'm still genuinely surprised by just how good that shovel sounds...
This was part of a playlist of Meshugguh I had going, and for most of the song I legit just heard it as the normal song, without even realizing what it actually was.
Bravo Rob
Can't enough of Leo's vocals man.
I challenge you to create a djent song in standard tuning and NO distortion. Completely clean.
that's a contradiction.
Djent is all about that down tuned palm mute sound with distortion
That’s the complete opposite of djent lmao
That would be tnejd
That would be djen't
Saw a mini pic of Leo and dropped in..glad I listened. You play a mean shovel!
Some say to this day he is still screaming at that trowel
Fun fact:
"Shovel" in danish translates to spade.
Spade can also be used as a slang for guitar... and idiot :'D
@Tellman 23 Sure can do. Icelandic would be the only language that is a bit harder to understand for other scandinavian countries. But norwegian, swedish and danish people can pretty much have a full on conversation with one another in their respective languages. :D

Thats probably the best play on words ever
Meshuggas entire discography can be played using a djent stick.
Years after, and I'm still stupefied as to how you get such a clean and accurate sound from a fretless shovel. Incredible skill
you and leo should cover static x. I'm with stupid on the the shovel!!!!
that alien eyes...
Dude, Leo is the man. Great to see you working with him. How did I miss this for 3 years?
Stumbled across this a year later, forgot to mention, great song choice too. Not for the faint of heart.
