Let’s be real this whole channel is mostly Meshuggah throughout the entire year (and I’m totally ok with that)

[@batweed]

Majnune 😂

[@25man5]

They’ve been a band for 35+ years and are STILL producing songs that are just as innovative as Future Breed Machine was in 1995. The Swedish king really ought to Knight them at this point.

[@MykeLewisMusic]

I don't know if the King deserves to have the power of Meshuggah at his disposal. Great responsibility and all that.

[@Ragnarockalypse]

Meshuggah can offer the Knig of Sweden a spot in the band as an honorary member.

[@AndreyMakarov-i7h]

They need to build them a monument from the clockwork video.

[@morgenstern4.669]

Seems like Djune has already started

Praying for Pineal Gland Optics breakdown for Mayshuggah 2025 🙏

[@mcAzcrew]

That concept, Along with phantoms, has the same approach. Accents with the cymbals following the 4/3 polymeter

[@ThatBeTheQuestion]

I just noticed that Nolly is one of your patrons. That's so cool.

[@YogevGabay]

Oh it's the coolest !

[@JohnVullo]

When I learned about this songs complexity, I was convinced they would never play it live. I will never doubt them again.

[@Enydrath]

damn, that ad break got me in the first half, not gonna lie.

[@maxyboy9648]

As a drummer this song is just so fun to count the 46 beat pattern to considering it doesn’t evenly divide the 16th notes the entire song. Its like a weird test to see if you get thrown off of the pattern at all

[@AlexR47x]

Just consumed lunch in our Philadelphia office while consuming this video

[@philzeo]

I call my house "My Philadelphia office" 😂

[@PushThatMakesYaMove]

Much like the pattern, Mayshuggah went over the time signature of 4/4 weeks of May, but continues to be as magnificent as in previous reps! Big up!

[@YogevGabay]

Great excuse for me being late ! Will adopt !

[@RazBenAri]

Would love to see you make a more "meta" video about how you think Meshuggah is able to remember their songs. Is it a "feel" thing, or all math and counting, or something else?

[@topipulkkinen]

this would be interesting to see

[@MykeLewisMusic]

They transcribe their music in the 4th dimension, so for them, the whole song is happening all at once, so they only have to remember one second. Yes, I am super baked right now.

[@alfonzog_music]

@@MykeLewisMusic The strain you're using sounds incredible, hook me up brother

[@necroriffmonger]

​@@MykeLewisMusic lol 😂

[@nostrum7278]

its easily just feel, i learned 90% of meshuggah's catalogue, i listen to them a lot, (48k minutes last year), and honestly its just like remembering any other song. I dont even think about whats gonna come next I just know. And surely these guys who meticulously construct these sonic behemoths tirelessly pratice to perfect them. So yeah, Im pretty sure its just feel after the 100th play. I used to struggle counting the 77535 (part after 2:30) in Bleed, but after a year of playing it, i dont have to count in my head at all.

[@rhino202]

Can't wait. These always make me appreciate their talent so much more

[@ifiwasyouiwouldntbe]

I was going to ask why at 2:24 The 2nd takadimi only has 3 notes but then at 5:30 it had 4. Good catch lol.

[@brunoflokati4437]

Currently on vacation in southern Germany. Lying in bed after a full day of cycling and more baffled as usual after watching one of your outstanding explanaeions!

[@deepseahorse]

My favorite Meshuggah song. This week I mean.

[@OfficialArthusamakh]

I remember watching one of your videos about Immutable 2 years ago and we both agreed in the comments that we weren't moved so much by this song, that it was among the weak ones. Two years later I'm happy as hell that they've added it to the set as it's now one of my favorites and you're doing a video about it. What a great tune to take 2 years to grow like that.

[@whoisdin]

dude, i'm reading your comment and i'm like "whatthefuck you mean 2 years to grow???" and then i checked that it came out april 1st 2022...... it's been over 2 years already... dissociation and maladaptive daydreaming wins again. sigh

[@YogevGabay]

YEESSS true ! That song didn't catch me at all the first few times around !

[@TheSquareOnes]

My favorite track off the new album and one of my favorites in general, love how the pattern just smashing through each section unchecked gives most of the transitions a lurching, unsteady feel. You'd think it would make things lock in more but it has the opposite effect, probably since we're "properly" feeling the full polymeter instead of the 4/4 half asserting dominance every few bars. Hope this isn't a one-off writing gimmick, they definitely need to explore this approach more in the future.

[@YogevGabay]

Yup for sure ! Such a hard thing to pull off, they did it masterfully

Is that a bass behind you Yogev? Such a sick breakdown of the song! But what impresses me the most is how konnakol can be so useful to understand rythmic pattern by just "singing" them instead of counting. This is just so cool and I should try it. I'll go back to your video on konnakol and try to learn it to help me improve with "rhythm counting". See you back in May 2025? ;)
