Lyrics:
Demiurge
Writhing and embraced,
Retribution, soul eclipse turns solid,
Energized, sucking vomit - acting like its honey;
Deprived of I,
Falling while thrusting squares through circles,
Serving one single new dimension.
Terror rising, agnostics nemesis, a prophet of extinction.
I scorch the skies before your very eyes,
My deliverance - enslavement labelled: love.
Just trust this nemesis to sign and seal extinction.

Akhamesh I'm sorry, "Dark are the veils of death" is just not heavy enough. Omega Massif's "Aura" has a very discernable riff, however, it doesn't have a vocalist to ruin it's heaviness.

This may sound cliché, but go see these guys live. It has been 3 years since I saw them live playing this as the last song of the set and I'm still blown away at what they can make you feel. It's been said over and over, but the wall of sound that hits you is real, you don't listen with your ears but with your chest, it's the best I can describe it, it is f-ing unbelievable. I may attend better or worse concerts in my life, but Meshuggah will always be on a category of its own. OMFG.

Heaviest metal track I've ever witnessed/heard and I'm a fellow metalcore/trash metal guitarist for over a decade. I went from heavy metal (metallica etc...) to trash (Slash/Metallica, etc..) to power (Trivium, Dragonforce, etc...) to death (Necrophagist, Revocation, etc....) to metalcore (Born of Orisirs, Lamb of God, etc...) and to djent (Periphery). This is actually what should be called HEAVY metal, nothing sounds as heavy. Never heard something as heavy as that, Alex Terrible or not, NOTHING...

Demiurge comes from the greek word "demiurgos (greek: δημιουργός)" which means "the creator". In Plato's book "Timeus", which has to do with the creation of the world, demiurge is the technician, as well as the creator who designs by his kindness the universe, the motion of the stars and planets and the rest of life. He managed to gather the unorganized and rude materials and then to create the best possible world for everyone, which would look alike demiurge's kindness and form. Enjoy!.

[@spawnofchaos9422]

I think they are talking about Yaldabaoth,the gnostic demiurge who created the world as a prison for the souls.

[@marrrkl]

@@sabrinakrisb4672 it's truly accurate description of demiurge, according to Plato's Timeus. Maybe you know another interpretation of demiurge. I'm letting you know that demiurge is a greek word, and also I told the story about demiurge of Plato's in order to give a story about Plato's perspective and link it with Meshuggah's relative song. Maybe we're talking about a different perspective, and that's why you refuse that perspective... What perspective you're talking about that makes you disagree with mine?...

@@sabrinakrisb4672 I meant that someone can interpret the lyrics their own way.I interpreted it using the idea of the Gnostic Demiurge while Marinos interpreted using the idea of the Platonic Demiurge and someone who doesn't know what a demiurge is will understand the song differently

I had never heard of them before and showed up to day 2 at a festival massively hung over.

I’m a 54 yo grandma that exposed my sons to heavy metal at a very young age. Recently, visiting my now grown son and his fam, and after kids in bed upstairs, he’s like “mom, listen to this…and they are from DFW Texas! (Where we are from). 2 minutes in and both sitting on couch headbanging! What a great mother/son bonding (but we’ve always listen to metal and share music). Vocals here are a little much for me, but dayum those riffs are fucking badass!! 🤘 I look out of place 😂 and strangers are shocked at what I listen to at my age 😂 my sons’ friends are like “hold up! Your mom listens to this stuff?”…hey there isn’t anything wrong being my age and headbanging! I really wished he would have gotten a reaction video of we played this song for me then 😆
