Meshuggah - Shed / Personae Non Gratae / Dehumanization

[@rvega8038]

meshuggah are masters of ''less is more'' and ''more is more''

[@TriOdy]

In More Is Less... In More Is More

[@SummoningACryptid]

Back a few years when i was in high school, my English teacher had instructed us to fill out these little forms with parents info and personal questions so the teacher could get to know us. Where it asked for favorite song, i had unwittingly written down shed and handed it in. Next day the she says they will play each song from the students and talk about any literature or poetic elements, and subsequently played shed. Needless to say the entire class was dumbfounded and frightened by this song

[@Tsumami__]

SummoningACryptid this song isn’t that old and it’s not 1953. People aren’t exactly shocked my any form of metal anymore.

[@DaveGara95]

Love you man

[@HarleyHerbert]

There's still a lot of religious nutcases out there who still think it's all satanic shit and get all shocked when they see/hear this sort of stuff

[@golgotai2938]

Shed is a way better song than bleed.

[@WeWantYouToStay]

Goddess Usako I'm dumbfounded by how ridiculous this comment is. I guarantee you put this on in a room of randomly selected people and 99% of them would be absolutely abhorred by it. Even metalheads who just listen to popular old school bands like Metallica, Maiden, Pantera etc. would be pretty shocked by the dissonance and rhythmic non-sensibility. Do you live in some utopian hardcore metalhead bubble or something?

-Shed: I float through physical thoughts I stare down the abyss of organic dreams All bets off, I plunge Only to find that self is shed -Personae Non Gratae: A lie to maintain equilibrium To hold me in this dead realm - this last ever dream I'm the thought that never crossed my mind Disguised in the evident Forever unredeemed -Dehumanization: A new level reached, where the absence of air lets me breathe I'm inverted electrical impulses A malfunctioning death-code incomplete All things before me, at first unliving glimpse undeciphered Its semantics rid of logic Nothing is all All is contradiction Grinding, churning - the sweetest ever noises Decode me into their non-communication A soundtrack to my failure, one syllable, one vowel A stagnant flow of endings Un-time unbound Merging to form the multi-none A sickly dance of matter, malignantly benign Greeting the chasm - unbearable, sublime

This might be the heaviest three tracks ever recorded by mankind.

[@Brutalious]

I have been listening to metal for 6 years and I will say that 7:32 is the heaviest piece of music I have ever heard.

[@LukeZuniga]

I have been listening to metal for 12 years and I will also say that 7:32 is the heaviest piece of music I have ever heard.

[@Brutalious]

Update: Its still the heaviest almost 10 years later.

[@francomilanesi5843]

[@WhirlwindDrums]

catch33 is my favorite meshuggah record

[@guyonthecouch136]

Metoo

[@oceanmachine1906]

Catch 33 is definitely their greatest song

[@joshuatorres7475]

This is probably one of the most enigmatic and awesome songs by Meshuggah!!

[@IaJagon]

Dehumanization ~ A new level reached, where the absence of air lets me breathe I'm inverted electrical impulses. A malfunctioning death-code incomplete All things before me, at first unliving glimpse undeciphered Its semantics rid of logic. Nothing is all. All is contradiction Grinding, churning, the sweetest ever noises Decode me into their non-communication A soundtrack to my failure, one syllable, one vowel A stagnant of endings. Un-time unbound. Merging to from the multi-none A sickly dance of matter, malignantly benign. Greeting the chasm - unbearable, sublime

[@robmiller9920]

"This next band didn't ask me to say this, but, goddammit, I'm going to say it anyway: I fucking love this band. They are the greatest band ever, PERIOD! Ladies & Gentlemen, MESHUGGAH!"

[@arupp513]

7:31 ......fuck YES! One of the heaviest things I have ever heard. Still gives me goosebumps listening to it.

[@02SplinterCell02]

The best 8 minutes of music in the history of mankind

[@isaackmojica8302]

Also try ULCERATE -everything is fire !!!!

[@thomgardiner7572]

That tiny gap at 3:33 is the best pause ever put into a song. Probably because of the monster that comes after it.

[@JarodRebuck]

Not enough can be said about these three tracks, this album, and this band.

[@djoverkin]

It saddens me so much that most people can't feel the joy and awe this album inspires in me...

[@kaatildevilsking]

7:32 is the heaviest piece of music.Its like listning to dark psy after a dope

[@VinyLegends]

This is the Blueprint for heavy music.

[@eduardopinto989]

I remember that one night with a friend I dance the whole album Nothing, what memories those.

[@44SuperShredder]

4:19 Incase you were wondering what the heaviest moment in Music history is. That. Shit. Is. Pure. Brutality.

[@rickc2102]

Yeah, my neighbors love that one, hehe.

[@muffmuff3631]

True. Doesn't even sound like guitars, just brutal soundwaves

[@44SuperShredder]

@S I really agree

[@swiftyrocks08]

This trio just screams AAAAHHHHHH!!!!! It pretty much says: FUCK THIS 3 DIMENSIONAL PRISON!!! As the lyrics say in shed: "I float through physical thoughts. I stare down the abyss of organic dreams." And in Personae Non Gratae the lyrics say: A lie to maintain equilibrium. To hold me in this dead realm. This last ever dream. Im the thought that never crossed my mind. Meshuggah may have reached the fourth dimension with this one. What a track! Im gonna try and piece together my melted brain now.

[@isaofujii7817]

Haha. I just went in and changed the "Pitch Shift" to my speakers to "-4", which is the lowest setting. Now it's so much MORE fucking brutal.

All it takes for me to go crazy is a 15 seconds scream. They should do that more often

[@jadedmastermind]

[@taffbrigade6429]

This album is no filler.

[@meursault7030]

I don't even go crazy to Meshuggah, it transcends that. I just sit there with the scowliest scowl like I just smelled something funky as shit and nod my fucking head.

Considering how "programming" oriented the lyrics seem to be in juxtaposition with paradox, it only seems appropriate that drums are, in fact, programmed.

Ikr? the song "Bleed" does the same thing for me, so relaxing for some reason, kind of makes me feel like the guy on the Obzen album cover.

[@kiteracer2497]

It is very relaxing. In 87 I was shown master of puppets. It made life so much better. This has probably helped other kids in the last 6 yeae

[@supah1337B]

@fataloxygen No its one big song, the parts that sort of skip is just because of recording problems,

[@cyclopsvideo1]

around 2:14 mark,shit gets heavy

[@ShadowAce70]

@schpleeb hmm good question. idk "I" and Catch 33 is just pure amazement. I dont think either one is better than the other. I mean, it's Meshuggah. Anything they do ranks up to a full 5/5 vote (except for Contradictions Collapse)

@codemaster667 Seven years now! Haha. I know I got into the Metal scene a little late. Excluding Heavy Metal bands like Metallica, the first real Metal I got into was the album Follow The Reaper by Children Of Bodom. And a year after making the bold comment about that part in this song being the heaviest piece of music I've ever heard; I still stand by that statement today.

[@CaRnAgE15777]

thumbs up if you got this album day one.

[@BloodHarvest21]

Honestly, I started out listening to Slipknot, Korn, etc. Now I'm into stuff like Meshuggah. Necrophagist, Arch Enemy, etc. Lol.

[@BenjaminKuruga]

@hotta1488 And as Cuthlhul says, Obvious troll is very obvious.

[@Curmudgeon5462]

@blastbeat1984 Black metal is something that I just simply cannot take seriously. I see kids pretending they are dinosaurs and making "RAWR" sounds. It's not serious, its foe rebellion bullshit. This is heart, soul, and crushing heaviness. Jens>any metal vocalist on the planet on heaviness. This isn't opinion, this is fact. I've heard Gojira, I've heard Bodem, I've heard Suppressor, and it's pure dogshit. These guys stomp everyone in terms of complexity, musicianship, and heaviness.

[@Brutalious]

@blastbeat1984 LOL Black Metal heavy? You must be high. Doom Metal is a completely different style of music that you can't really compare with Meshuggah. Though I understand why you think its heavier, I have to disagree.

Comparing Meshuggah to Behemoth is... just... phenominally fucking stupid! Two completely different genres of metal cannot be compared, just like dance and dubstep or grunge and punk. Similar in elements, different in whole. Good music is good music, enjoy it, you'll be sorry you never got the chance to when your dead.

[@Curmudgeon5462]

@blastbeat1984 I was actually siding with you. But you can't read so...
