đŽ Old Composer Reactions đ€ - Hudba
If you want the absolute pinnacle of their songwriting ability on this album, definitely check out phantoms. It's one of those songs where the more understanding you have of how to follow the tempo, it becomes even more insane.
It's also possibly the catchiest track on the album.
Would love to see this. Such a unique song.
Feels like a total culmination of their work. Like I can hear elements from all their past albums in that one track. Well Maybe from Nothing onward.
armies of the preposterous was the best one for me. a really nice heavy track before the clean outro
@@UrinationNation phantoms and kaleidoscope
Ligature Marks from the same album is probably Meshuggah at their grooviest. So minimal at first but it keeps on giving and giving
Best song on Immutable!
My personal favorite track on the album. Just something about it, minimal like you said but the way it builds. There's a point at the end after they hit that straight 4/4 groove riff, it hits that massive chug part and I always lose myself there. Best metal band on the planet!
9 strings for the lowest tone possible. đ€đ€.
The drummer has developed a problem with his hands (psoriasis iirc) and itâs affected how long he can play for. Impressive that he recorded the drums on this and has been playing live still. Guys a beast.
Really impressive indeed. He such a monster on the drums đ„đ„
When they released Clockworks, I thought it was an ode to Tomas' internal clock.
They guy plays like he does even after having a herniated disc with numbing issues in his foot and leg. Insane.
Great album. It's a rhythmical masterpiece. Not their greatest album but still a chugfest of immense proportion.
My son said it's sloppy. Don't know what he means by that. I like the chaos, buzzing guitar insects, incredible drumming and ever changing beats. It's perfect for the ride to work and back home !
@@sebastienbrouillard Well, on its own, yes, it is extremely decent. However, if you were to compare it to their previous albums I can see why your son is calling it "sloppy". I would just call it "tamer". Technically speaking, it's amazing, top-notch Meshuggah masterpiece quality, but just a little tamer than their previous albums.
â@@MrBrainTucker1079 yup, the younger metalheads only want the heaviest music they can find, but the guys in the band are in their fifties now. They have enough hard af songs to play live.
@@MrBrainTucker1079 Extremely decent, is that like not half bad?
@@sebastienbrouillard Everyone has their opinion, but "sloppy" is a very strange word to describe any of Meshuggah's songs. Do you think maybe he meant sloppy as in, the songwriting is not as good compared to the other albums?
Just saw them live last night in Worcester Mass. AMAZING show. If they are coming to your area, go see them. The light show itself is worth the price of admission.
they may only be touring the mainland, where Geebs is from Hawai'i.
That's his problem. Every one else should go
@@senseicorey9979 bit of a dick move
Iâm going to see them this weekend in Cleveland. Never really listened to them before. Looks like Iâm in for an awesome show.
Cone back here and let me know what you think. Gotta stand on the floor
You should react to Ligature Marks or Phantoms
Yes! Ligature Marks is actually groovy as h*ll, the song building more and more fierce with Jens Kidman's voice and lyrics as another percussive instrument. And the guitars in the outro!!! Playing that sweet (! ), almost moving tune - a fanfare! backed by Haake's and Lövgrens solid rhytm. ( That part creates a mellow, soothing, atmosphere, no equlibristic Guitar solo - just a profound finaleđ€đ )
i got obzen and catch 33 on vinyl I ended up liking them so much. I didnt "get it" at first but the groove got into me deep. i get that neck face going on everytime i listen to them.
Both amazing. Catch 33 is probably my favorite
Catch 33 is such a good album!
DUDE perfect timing. T-minus 37 min until i leave to go to the Philly show. đ€
Thatâs called Meshuggah stank face! Rocking out!
Hell YEAH.... You still need to check out the album "I"....it's a mixture of gnarly ness....
If he did I in itâs entirety that would be killer
I've actually requested this on Patreon multiple times. Maybe he'll do it someday.
@@Weeping_Somnambulist geebz done did it :O
@@t3hgir yeah and I think it broke him because a week later he quit doing reactions and is on Twitch now doing OSTs more than anything else. He took one for the team lol.
The ending of this music is just the most brilliant evidence of the uniqueness of these guys. They can do whatever they want with their sound. There are no similar bands to Meshuggah, they are in a league of their own!
I've been listening to this album everyday since it dropped đ„đŻđ€
Just saw them in Worcester at the first show of the NA tour, sold out show. I was up front, Jens Kidman right in front of me... insane fkn show.
Iâm seeing them tomorrow night. Canât wait đ€
Can't wait for the Dallas show!
Their last album is really good. They've been really consistent throughout the years. Great job, as always! Still here! Awwright!
Geebz is the absolute best! I love how heâs become a metal head
HELL YES!! Finally!! Please react to the whole album my man. Your reactions are the best on this platform by far
Metal will never die
I'm still here! Been listening to Meshuggah since '94 and they have yet to disappoint me!
You should react to "I" by Meshuggah. It is the most mind-blowing piece of music you will ever hear!
I would say Fredrik solo album with Ă gren, beats the "I" by light years distance
If you ever get âlostâ, default to the layering. Once you hear the one-and-two-and, youâve got it. Thatâs what makes the feel so special. It grows on you.
Meshuggah just proving once more that they are consistently relevant! Try the song Combustionđ€đŒđ€đ»đž
That music video is certainly one of the heavy metal music videos
It is in fact a video
Meshuggah- Dancers to a Discordant System (LIVE)
I appreciate you reviewing metal acts, especially Meshuggah. Thanks a lot for the content and I'm still here.
Meshuggah đ€ Geebz I'm seeing them live at the agora theater in Cleveland on the 24th next saturday. I've never seen them live before I'm super excited.
Seeing them tonight for the 2nd time. They're dope man, enjoy your show!!
@@drummer265 AWESOME đ enjoy your show too! đ€
Same here!
I just saw them in Norfolk, VA Wednesday. Fucking badass show. You all are gonna have a blast
This song has one of the greatest outros of all time
Incredible power. Every listen gets better. KEEP LISTENING!!
I love the Meshuggah you cover, great reaction Geebz we love you!
dude! This vid completely eradicates all that is music...Love it! But how it winds back to the "on the 1"?? Purely artistic!!! Love ur reactions & even more ur creepy vibes on that Halloween mix... A thing of beauty, bro...
That album is awesome! Stand outs for me are Broken Cog, Abysmal eye, Phantoms, They move below, Kaleidoscope. Black Cathedral is kinda an intro to I am that thirst. Check them out together. The lyrics are pretty cool on this album too.
The 9th string on those guitars - you ever gotten a filling at the dentist and they use the coarse drill to open up a cavity in order to fill it? I can feel these riffs deep in my teeth and right through my skull just like that drill.
Ligature marks, dude!
If this song was 15 minutes long, I'd be lost in it for 15 minutes. This music video (of course the main feature is the song) is awesome, as I think it's the first time in music videos where I've ever seen one I call a sequel. This is definitely the sequel to The Abysmal Eye music video.
You mention Meshuggah and their influence in music. Although bands may sample from them, there is no band even close to what Meshuggah does. They are on an island all by themselves.
Tomas is a freaking genius. He is so incredible at back boning the offbeats to Meshuggah's music, which I think very few drummers could really do. One of the best drummers ever in the metal realm. Another new to me drummer to me is awesome, and that's Haruna from Lovebites. Power/Speed and not Djent, so really hard to compare. It's what they do to push the music is amazing
I saw Meshuggah open for Tool back in 2002 at UMass Amherst. Funny combination, and it showed. Seeing Future Breed Machine live was incredible. The most comical thing though was when their set ended. The people were obviously there to see Tool, a different crowd than Meshuggah would pull in. The looks I saw when they played their last note made me laugh so hard. It was that slow clapping. blank stare, dumbfounded look of thinking what the hell did we just see. Blew Tool away for me.
Great video. I just saw them last night. Absolutely amazing
Based. Meshuggah is the shit.
i love the tuttis at the end
Iâve been a loyal Meshuggah fan since the late 90s if you really want to understand the background of their rhythmic minds listen to catch 33âs album
Geebz you absolutely HAVE To hear Vildhjarta. They are among the best bands that have expanded on this sound.
He has, bro. Search the channel.
Alrigh! The best decomposer breaking down the best decomposed breakdowns! Love it! MESHUGGAH is A#1
Great to hear you breakdown the new Meshuggah again. Seeing them tomorrow night, I'll keep my eye on Tomas on this (and probably most tracks)
Thanks for the content.
I think you would enjoy doing a bit of a deep-dive into Meshuggah.
They reinvented rhythm in "guitars and drum" music and are worth fully understanding.
And I think it would be recieved well by your audience and result in more die-hard faithfuls.
Keep it up, Geebz!
Namaste
Please react to Phantoms by Meshuggah! Incredible songwriting and a hell of a jam.
It sounds like the end of something with all the harmonizing.
cant deny you know what your getting with meshuggah
I have never really been a metal head. Meshuggah, Slayer, Opeth, Iron Maiden and a few others always have held a place in my heart and mind though.
And metal fans have always been so chill in general. Throughout my entire life.
Edit: shoutout to Metalocalypse and Brendan Small. That is one of the coolest animated shows of all time. And the music is fire.
Aloha from Cleveland!
Meshuggah are such a crazy band. Just reading the comments on this video, I think i saw close to every song on the new album mentioned by someone.
One of the aspects I appreciate most about metal is the incorporation of Phrygian modes.
That is almost like pentatonic. There is something deep in our being that understands the phrygian mode.
I hear the sound in china. I hear the sound in india. I hear the sound in desert blues from africa. I hear the mode everywhere.
Edit: you can even hear the mode stylings in microtonal music that is outside of the 12 tone scale of western music.
I'm still here. Enjoy the surf Geebz!
Yay meshuggah!
Meshuggah is innnnnsaaaane live
When you have a new reaction video, I'm so happening to listen to a song of the artist. So trippy bro
I recommend the Stifled by Meshuggah, its amazing
Iâm still here, and I love this song
I think geebs secretly listens to meshuggah all day đ
Achilles Last Stand, what a great reference!
Fantastic album! So fn sick! Iâm going to see them tomorrow night. So pumped itâs ridiculous đ„đ„đ„đ€đ€đ€
loving the new setups youre trying out. Honestly the dolls kinda creeped me out. haha
I'm still here!
This is not a new track, it's been out with the rest of the album since spring this year.
Oh, I guess it was the premiere of the video. Thank you for the heads up.
@@KeyOfGeebz Yeah I just said it so you know that there's more new material :) Like I said in the other comment. I would LOVE for you to do the violent sleep of reason, the song. It's so chuggy and still rhytmically complex.
Geebz just gets it.
Yes he does đ€đ€
I love the solo in this one. He just rips it up.
btw catch 33 would be a great slow burn as the whole album is essentially one song .
Enjoyed this video as per usual when watching your takes on music.
On a side note, your "Bleed" video flashed by in a Swedish documentary about Swedish metal a while back during the segment on Meshuggah.
Hello from Sweden This makes me very happy
No one escapes from stank face listening to MESHUGGAH. Pozdro666
Got to see them earlier in June and they played this song. Just insane!
Thank you Geebz
The cymbals used may be chinas, and often mark the eighths here.
I'm totally with you that the overheads are quiet on this album. The drums are digital, as compared to Violent Sleep which was entirely "acoustic" (recorded live on amps in a studio).
"Amazeballs " as always i leave with something I didn't know
Daaaaang buddy đą Hope you are doing well. Sending you some positive energy. Much love brother
Catching them tonight in NY! Can't wait!
Totally agree man (BTW FUCKING *LOVE* THEIR NEW ALBUM ITS *INSANE* ) and i totally dig you saying what you said about the cymbals. They really are a lot less pronounced and clear than usual. I think personally this is a very conscious choice for them. They have started leaning a lot more into not giving away the rhythmic signature/feel of the song or passage or what not. Broken Cog is a fantastic example, where it keeps you in a space between feeling 4/4 and feeling a 3 over 4 feeling (if i am not mistaken). Its not necessarily that they keep ramping up the complexity with their new material, in regards to intrinsic measure/meter/rhythmic stuff, but they have started shedding away at what they reveal to you. I think the cymbals being kinda whited out is intentional to promote this motion.
Also i have had a feeling through the last two records and especially this one, that Thomas has started going a lot more loosely on keeping time with the cymbals. Tracks like nostrum and clockworks on the last record almost keep the groove locked in the snare rolls. Very interesting stuff.
regarding the reaction, faces and grooving along say it all. Meshuggah is basically unmatched. You're right about the mixing of the drums/guitar. I think Tomas even said in an interview they consciously brought the drums down a bit and guitars turned up for this album. Check out the original release of Nothing for a great raw drum mix. You can really hear Haake's ghost notes, foot hihat work and overall dynamics :)
If you want to hear some great insight on Meshuggah's drumming and overall composition check out Tomas Haake's two interviews he did on "drumtalk" an excellent youtube channel interviewing top drummers. :D peace!
Just realized the headphones Geebz uses are what I have been using for vocal tracking the past few years and they are quite good. Beyerdynamic dt 770 pro are good too, especially for mixing if anyone is interested.
It's hard to look away! Lol
To echo other comments... your take on "I" would be a great watch/listen!
Taxing...... that's exactly how it is listening to meshuggah for extended periods of time. I fucking love them but there's so much going on it starts to make your head hurt after awhile trying to decipher it
You don't have to decipher it! Just enjoy!
The cymbal you were referring to is the China cymbal lol. But yeah this album is unbelievable. So happy to see you digging it. I saw them the other night in NYC and got to hang with the drummer for a bit afterwards. It's super impressive how near the end of this song they do fills that never repeat. And speaking of fills, the drums do this thing a few times on this album that I've never really heard before where he fills way all the way through and past the downbeat. Amazing stuff.
China cymbal is the one you're looking for :)
Please consider reacting to Megadeth-Wake Up Dead. It's almost an instrumental, there are a couple of verses but it's mostly epic solos and riffage. I was listening to it today and it popped into my head that you would probably love it.
Juicy
going to see them live tomorrow night đ€đ» will be the 6th time for me
All bow to the heaviest band ever! Just saw them in orlando last week and they destroyed as usual. Pineal gland optics fully activated đ€đ€đȘđ»đȘđ»
I'm still here
Try Straws Pulled at Random from Nothing, this is my favorite song by them.
that would be a china or china-boy cymbal to which you refer. he uses a whole rack of them - different weights and tuned to different pitches to cater for the varying levels of ROCK!!
Agreed with the overhead mic comment. Something I miss on this entire album is some of that 8th note or 4th note pulse on the cymbals to add to the groove. I think part of it is that he doesn't play it as often, and part mixing
Haake also had some type of injury, and was healing for a long time.
That may have affected the writing and playing a bit
Future breed machine by them is a must react please it was released in 1997 and was so ahead of its time itâs thrash djenty cause they tuned to f standard and just meshuggah before they created a genre
Yogev Gabay has a whole video breaking down this track. I highly recommend checking it out.
Idk much about drums but I think you might be looking for is the crash symbol? I have listened to this album, this would of not been the song I would of picked for another music video off their cd, but that's not my decision.
Insane
Great track from the shuggs.
Edit: If you have to pick between the two do violent sleep of reason, for sure. I'm going to recommend God He Sees in mirrors in from their last album. It's a very interesting little song that uses basically the same rhythm the whole song but makes it sound different. I'd really recommend it. Outside of their newest album I'd also def recommend the song "the violent sleep of reason" (the song not the albm" which imo is also very interesting rhytmically.
Would you consider possibly checking out King Diamond live at Grasspop 2019.. ( any song) I think youâll be amazed.
I've been here from the beginning. Please play Riverside - Left Out. One of these days.
Cool music video!
still here, enjoy the swells
Hey, what about Burzum ?
Burzum - Key To Gate
and
En Ring Til Aa Herske
?
Not a new track, a new musicvideo.

I'm still here bro
