"Bleed" by Meshuggah EXPLAINED (part 1)

[@dngrouscrgo]

Meshuggah in 2008: Just trying to make a brutal metal song *accidentally creates benchmark composition for in depth rhythmic analysis for decades to come*

[@Fitz1993]

And to think it almost never made it to the album...

[@AlbertSirup]

honestly they knew what they were doing, they've been doing that shit 10 years before bleed came out... Bleed is actually one of their more "straight forward" tracks

[@Fitz1993]

@@AlbertSirup None of that changes the legitimacy of the post you're trying to correct...

[@AlbertSirup]

@@Fitz1993 I didn't intent to...

[@AlbertSirup]

@@Fitz1993 that being said, it would be a dishonest to say they "just" wanted to make a brutal metal song like Cannibal Corpse is making brutal metal songs - I'm pretty sure the members of Meshuggah do enjoy the nerdiness of making up weird rhythms and it doesn't just happen by accident

[@coolcoconuts4453]

Just the fact that they managed to turn a relatively simple beat into one of the most notoriously difficult rhythmic songs to play by sneaking in just 1 extra beat is mind-blowing

[@georgeaiken2965]

Tool's "Invincible" main riff is the same except every two repeats they introduce yet another extra beat, and it's also much much slower

[@bstnlcge2662]

Mike Mangini was already playing this exact beat during his drums solo, way before the band existed.

[@futoninc.3813]

yep. as a drummer, Hertas are universally recognized as one of the hardest rudiments to play, and the fact he can do it with his feet is beyond impressive

[@viscountrainbows2857]

It's like how Bill Burr said one time: 3 different people can be headbanging to 3 different tempos, and all be on time with each other. One guy windmills to the faster bits, one guy goes for the more 4/4 nod, and another goes for a semi delayed nod to sync up with the 4/4. An orchestra of whiplash

[@sebastianahrens2385]

To anyone who's as confused with this as I was: Meshuggah use 8-string guitars. Benefits of more strings are: More total range, more notes available at each hand position (economy of motion) and - if I understood this correctly - better tonal distinction because more notes are now "in the middle" of the string rather than towards the ends.

[@dorcarmeli2562]

He also said ObZen was released in 2010 when it was actually released in 2008

[@bguzewi0]

It's incredible that one human can play two different rhythms simultaneously and keep them straight in their head. I can see why it took him as long to master this one song as it did the rest of the tracks on the album.

[@stevenhetzel6483]

Wait till this dude finds out about Danny Carey, playing not just 4 different sigs, but 3 of them being preposterously obscure, and mixing in percussionist melodies at the same time.

I seriously had never taken the time to figure out what the hell was going on in the last part you cover in this video, and it's actually even more clever than I was imagining. Plus, if you just shift the writing, you get 7-5-3-5-7... That's kind of a slow, very regular wave, and it's not just hidden in the structure of the song, it's its backbone. God I cannot talk about this band without gushing. Great video

[@YogevGabay]

Thanks man! And yes, I also thought about the 7-5-3-5-7 thing, but why would it start with 2 sevens?

[@Henry14arsenal2007]

In fact thats the pattern that plays right after the solo.

[@Variety_Pack]

@@YogevGabay my guess is it's a shifted pattern of patterns? Just like in Combustion (nice video there) where the guitar starts out a tad late, maybe this one starts a tad early?

[@YogevGabay]

@@Variety_Pack Maybe? no idea hahh

[@schizophrenicenthusiast]

@@YogevGabay It could technically still be considered as a 7-5-3-5-7 repeating pattern, because that's how that section ends and the first time it's played it's truncated, starting with the last 7. This way the rationale behind it looks more logical; slow-normal-fast-normal-slow, I like to think that's how they came up with it.

[@joshuac717]

I did literally fall asleep to this album for a few month period. So hypnotic and peaceful in a completely chaotic and violent way.

[@vibes6326]

to be honest for me this is the easiest meshuggah song to understand theoretically by quite a large margin, it really is just 4/4 and once you slow it down the patterns are very easy to grasp. playing it on the other hand...

[@danielssonsgarage]

Well every meshuggasong is 4/4

[@danielssonsgarage]

I just said that to make you understand it still polyrythms, 77535 is not a standard 4/4 song, but it still bleed and fucking Hard to get a grip of haha

[@FatCandyProduction]

Can you please please please do The Art of Dying by Gojira!? Those first 3 minutes are so hard to figure out by ear and your way of explaining is perfect for figuring that intro part out!

[@theguy4361]

Follow exaclty what gustavo said, that's the whole structure. That's just a mix of group of 3 kicks / snare and 2 kicks / snare k k k S - k k k S - k k k S - k k S k k S k k S k k k S - k k k S - k k k S - k k S k k S Just reapeat that 4 time and then it ends with k k k S S k k k S S k k k S S k k k S S and loops back

[@lyndonbauer1703]

My comment dissapeared, my bad, anyway the above works for kick/snare timing. Bar structure is 5 bars of 8 (40 counts) 1 bar of 5 (5 counts), 1 bar of 6 (6 counts) and then loops, totalling 51 counts, Count denoted on ride/crash cymbals at 138bpm during the intro section. Hope it helps!

[@knockedgoose4206]

The fact that explaining this song takes more than one part does kind of point out how incredible it is.

[@AissurDrol]

I've been saying for years that this song is entirely in 4/4 and everyone has said I'm an idiot with no understanding of music. This song is fast and very in your face, so it's hard to count, but it's one of their simplest songs. The gallops are not difficult on guitar (or bass), just exhausting. The drumming is clean and consistent, but also exhausting. The hardest part of this song is remembering where you are.

[@tim.noonan]

It’s very funny to me to see non-drummer musicians over-analyze the hell out of time signatures for songs, especially metal. Like, find the backbeat and you’ll find the time signature. More often than not a song is in 4/4 but isn’t felt in a straightforward manner. For example, even Tool’s ‘Schism’ is 5/8 + 7/8 until they get to the bridge. It’s really very easy to feel in 12/8 or even 4/4. But everyone tries to find time through the bass line, which is an ostinato that goes over the bar line by design. It’s like trying to find the point of origin on a mobius strip - it doesn’t exist, and it was designed that way. Danny’s drum part, however, gives a backbeat that no one but other drummers seem to be able to latch on to. Moral of the story - don’t think it first, feel it. Then think about what you feel.

[@kymcconnell]

​​@@tim.noonanan... I love this reply. It's exactly what I've been telling my peers about their own musical creations. Stop over thinking what you're playing. Feel it, keep feeling it, then think about what you feel and analyze what it is in musical theory that makes you feel it this way. It almost always comes down to simplistic or familiar structures as the backbone or foundation of the composition. All the other elements are just built off of or around the initial structure. Thank you. You put what was always in my head into relatable words :)

[@raingirlcat2245]

you’re right. it IS in 4/4.

If you want to have extra fun at a Meshuggah show, watch all the confused people who are stuck on the complex subdivisions and don't know how to headbang to it. Every time I'd go to one of their shows, I'd point out to people that you can usually rely on the backbeat of the snare or the steady cymbal hits to figure out the actual time signature. BTW, shout out to their A/V tech doing their live lighting. In case anyone isn't aware, that dude is a seriously unsung hero. He is just as skilled as the members of the band because he plays their polyrhythms on the control pads in sync with their live performance to do their lighting. He knows their songs in and out just as they do and deserves so much more credit than he ever gets.

I actually think of it as a palindrome 75357, that they start on the last 7 to create 77535. Meshuggah have a habit of starting riffs in the middle making it seem as if the pattern has a certain order, but really it's a different order all together.

Hmm that's very interesting. Thank you for another high quality video. I've always thought of the last pattern in this video as a mixture of the first two riffs, where the kick alternates to repeat every 5th as well as 3rd 16th note. Or rather, if you call the 5 one "infrequent" (or '0') and the 3 one "frequent" (or '1'), you can formulate the pattern in another way. This pattern then becomes: 00011, repeating. For clarification, the riff where the kick repeats every 3rd 16th note becomes 11111 (repeating) with this notation, and the pattern where the kick repeats every 5th 16th note becomes 00000 repeating. Very interesting that we've found different ways to communicate the same pattern!
