Dear Andrew, tuning of perpetual Black second is wrong. Originally it played in E a# d# g# c# f# a# d# (like Stengah and Marrow)

[@bruceanthony8345]

@@aceofphrase The tuning of the song "Perpetual Black Second" is in E standard 8 string (E A D G C F A D), the song "Stengah" do you played in E standard or Drop E. And the another song "Marrow" is in F standard. Where is the "Rational Gaze" song Andrew?

[@aceofphrase]

@@bruceanthony8345 no, you aren't right man. Fredrik dropped only 8th string because they used only one guitar on their concerts. For reason, Marrow was recorded in E A# D# G# c# f# a# d# with a pitch up of half a step at some parts

[@THEDJAG-gt1tz]

What is Drop A#0? i can't find the tuning on internet

[@TobyKBTY]

Years later and Meshuggah STILL hits different. Heaviest band of all time

You're welcome Mr. @@goto228i

[@chrisburckhard9122]

That breakdown in Lethargica is still, and always will be, the heaviest breakdown ever created!

[@sirbonple]

oh hell yeah. especially the live versions because the lower bpm makes it 10x heavier imo. its so doomy and brutal

[@frankthecat1660]

The breakdown in Dehuminization is still the most brutal Meshuggah riff.

[@thewildhealer541]

​@@frankthecat1660agreed, dehumanization is freaking crazy

[@J155P]

The lethargica riff sounds a touch high to me

[@XFC856]

For those wondering, on Nothing they used different tunings by only tuning down the 8th string (live they keep it at F standard though). So, for Stengah, Perpetual Black Second, Glints Collide and Organic Shadows the F is down to an E, for Nebulous down to Eb (creating a Drop Eb tuning), for Obsidian down to D and for Spasm all the way down to Bb (and in the last minute of the song even further down to A).

[@kanvolu]

If it doesn't sound like electric cables it ain't low enough

[@drumkidstu]

Actually on Nothing only nebulous and spasm just drop the lowest string. Stengah, perpetual, glints collide, and organic shadows are E standard. Live they simply keep the guitar in F standard on those.

[@drumkidstu]

@BiRDiEMusic interesting, so they were really experimenting with which standard tuning was practical for their uses on that record. Half step down, full step down, step and a half. Makes total sense.

[@tfwnoyandere]

spasm is all a#

[@SingleCab22R]

I remember seeing Meshuggah quite a few years ago in Oregon. They opened for Obituary. Blew my mind. The Abysmal eye is a gem in my eyes. Especially coming from hearing ObZen from them initially.

[@willhersey3884]

Didn't realize obituary was that big good for them

[@ZaidPhyre]

How long ago exactly were they opening for Obituary? I believe you but it does sound a little odd.

[@SingleCab22R]

@@ZaidPhyre I don't even remember, it had to have been at least ten years ago..

[@SingleCab22R]

@@ZaidPhyre Hemlock was also on the tour.

[@VanWhyDesigns]

Absolutely Pummeling. Is the best way to describe these riffs.

[@kiril.d1]

Great selection of songs. It was especially nice to hear "spasm"

[@danhale8385]

Rational Gaze , Demiurge , Behind The Sun , Pravus , Dancers. So many more heavier riffs

[@tonygillahan]

The 3 and half minute mark of Pravus is bloody heaven

[@pricejamison2486]

every song in their discography has a contending riff

[@waylonrepass6782]

Thanks so much for featuring Spasm Andrew Baena. Its awesome to see you play one of my very favorite Meshuggah songs ever. And not only that, but to know what tuning it was in… that I could never figure out, lol.

[@robashley8216]

I had the fortune to see Meshuggah live and it was some of the heaviest shit I have heard in my life. Nothing can top a sea of people bouncing to Rational gaze

[@jwspitz35]

Bleed at the end was fucking fiiiiiiiilthy also that Thordendal sig is insane man, it looks like it weighs 50 pounds but sounds like it weighs 10,000

[@Zhivlyuk]

Glad to see Spasm here, pretty underrated Meshuggah song yet one of my favourites

[@noahbennett2961]

amazing choice of riffs, and still a lot of my favourites missing. meshuggah sure do know how to write. also, i had no idea spasm was in A#0, holy hell. that’s an absurdly low tuning

[@OHBJJ9634]

Yea and the whole song on that one note. Shows how ahead of the curve meshuggah was and hoe to this day. No band will ever do it as good as they have and continue to do

[@marcdumont2275]

I wish Pineal Optic Glands got more love...probably the most underrated track on Obzen and nobody ever talks about it

[@Antellathletic1903]

Some personal favourite riffs not on the list: New Millennium Cyanide Christ - 4:23 Do Not Look Down - Opening riff I Am That Thirst - 3:39 In Death - Is Death - 2:47 (The riff before mentioned in the video is awesome, but that short breakdown into the next riff sounds so good 🥴) Lethargica - Opening riff Phantoms - 2:54 (I understand its simple af, melodically at least, but the last two minutes of that song makes me feel some kinda way...)

[@halldinsounds]

2:59 Spasm, its SO GOOD! :D gj

[@cameronedwards6413]

dunno how I got to an unlisted video but this slaps. Edit: I'm not even a patreon member sorry for looking at this early Andrew 😬😬😬

God I love that bleed outro solo and riff so much. Props to remembering that chromatic solo shenanigans

I like that the Bleed solo actually wasn’t quite what it is in the album. If you watch them live, you’ll never hear the same solo twice

Dude Stifled needs to be number one on this list

[@neilkennethofficial]
