Lyrics:
Relentless and inexorable
This menacing creation
That we ourselves conceived
With covetous verve and credulity
Something this intensely profound
Can never be allowed
The fabric and all that holds it
will all burn. It will all be torn down
To contain it in its lair
Pandora's quantum prison
In wave after wave
It will see us fail
Consign to oblivion
This thing we cannot grasp
Bury deep this entity
Unlearn it ever existed
This is our omega. Factitious nemesis
The great dismantler of our dominion
If ever there was a reason
Maintain this greatest lie
That never did we look
into the abysmal eye

I'm 61 years old and a relatively new fan of Meshuggah's. I checked out Bleed on the recommendation of Bill Burr. He's not wrong. Incredible band. Now I'm checking out more and more. New Mellenium Cyanide Christ is my fave track. Just incredibly soothing and relaxing to stick on headphones and let the music wash over you like a blanket of sound. I actually feel the tension of the day leave my body. Totally relaxing. These guys are the best therapy to a day of driving kids to school and putting up with dumb drivers all day.

Me too! That riff when Jens comes in is probably one of my favourite riffs from them, and Tomas made it that much better👌🏻

[@johnjjohningtoniii2439]

Best album's first song since "Clockworks"

[@guillaumelagueyte1019]

What did you think my dude?

[@haroldbroussard5085]

It's so nice to see that Meshuggah has mellowed out finally 😉💯\,,/

[@robkey1067]

Meshuggah did not disappoint with this one! As if they ever have! They haven't lost their touch or sold out and lost their original unique sound!

[@jeffarab4947]

That's what's the best thing they really are the heaviest band in the world. The way they use simple riffs but in a hard timing is insane I love em

[@jussiparkkonen9853]

That last riff is one of the best riffs Meshuggah has ever written

[@jeffarab4947]

400 to end is so mosh pit style

Heard of meshuggah about 10 years ago and never listened till now. Why I don't know but thank God I did

[@02SplinterCell02]

Their entire discography slaps

[@shovelforisobel5837]

So I'm really not a death metal dude. But. Meshuggah. God damn. Meshuggah. Oh my God. I can't even. This song. Meshuggah. Oh my god. I love this song. And will for the rest of Eternity.

[@jason1888]

Hats off to the only vocalist to ever remain strong as ever and even be better album after album!! And to the entire band, absolutely amazing! The quintessential masters of their craft. There is not one second of their library that isn't brilliant. And they do it live with ease I might add! Kings!!!

[@2facesofevil835]

Sick !!! Meshuggah best metal band to date

[@Yabuddy53]

I just love the way their sound feels like the fucking sky is going to collapse right on top of you. Utterly apocalyptic.

[@skummyskelly7306]

Meshuggah is like if a Giger painting came with sound

[@user-O_06660_O]

Didn't expect the "Dune: part II" trailer to drop so early...

This song makes me feel something i never have. Can't explain it at all. The sounds are very unlike what i've heard before

When you say that Drummer is a machine! Tomas is the definition 🤘🥁💪😎

This is such a brutal track. Every time this comes on, its upskippable. Gotta stare at the abyss for 5 minutes.

[@someskeptic-kid9902]

this is really how meshuggah makes there album covers trust me I'm a survivor

[@nimadaryamadj7403]

Visually, Meshuggah has come a long way since the video for ”Terminal Illusions”. :) Well deserved.

[@Egoblivion]

What!? Nah nah Terminal was a big-budget spectacular special effects extravaganza! Are you blind!?

Still the best metal bend ever! No one can be as unique as Meshuggah!

[@barbamatteo]

Every other band on the planet when a Meshuggah new song comes out "ohh shit here we go again.."

[@mathprodigy]

Meshuggah, you always make me think! With your riffs, your lyrics, your themes, visuals, and ideas! That's why you are my all time favorite band! You changed how i heard music forever and i can never thank you enough.

[@sonic-fm1gw]

favorite meshuggah riffs?

[@mathprodigy]

@@sonic-fm1gw o man. All of the hard section of "in death is life/ death" (the whole catch 33 album ok), bleed, dancers, future breed, cyanide Christ, (i know u said "riffs" but the whole song is the riffs), into decay, rage won't die, straws pulled, obzen (whole album), corridor of chameleons (sleeper banger), I (entirety), closed eye visuals...too many 🤣

[@yasserjamilq8]

That's exactly what anyone would have surely envisioned when listening to the song? Outstanding!

Nice Mitch Hedberg callback.

Same, but now I am certain of that

I agree Mr. Zander Hedburg 👏👏👏

Seriously. Dude. The intro itself is a breakdown. I'm eternally amazed by this band since my first listen in 2006

That's not really what a breakdown is. . .

[@knocky3659]

Remember that joke about getting lost on the desert and being saved by a metal band shooting their music video? still relevant lol

[@RayTheViking]

This just screams Koloss 2.0 and I'm soo down with that. I'm honestly more exited about this than I was for The Violent Sleep Of Reason by a country mile.

[@gearwalker89]

Right from the start it slaps you so hard your ancestors felt it.

[@eldiablo3794]

Over the years bands tend to be hit or miss with their new material.. but I must say meshuggah is that one band that continues to put out amazing original material and always pushing the limit with their musicianship. Tomas Haake's precision bass drum patterns, and the tight guitar grooves always amazes me.

[@stepitupandgo67]

I love when Fredrick solos...so brain scrambling!!...

[@realestate2181]

The consistency in the riffs over the entirety of their career is astounding.

[@JazerMedia]

Dune: Part Two is looking great.

[@clamstermcwinkle2514]

MESHUGGAH put more amazing riffs and ideas into one song than most bands do on an album. A truly one off of a beast of a band.

[@AdMech]

“Now remember, walk without rhythm, and we won’t attract the worm.”

[@R.P.McMurphy]

There's something about Meshuggah's videoclips that make them fit the songs better than most bands.

[@0bs0l3t3]

Now that I know where all the budget went I'm okay with the album cover. This production is top notch and what Meshuggahs music has deserved for years. 🔥🔥🔥

[@dronmusicsound]

Meshuggah - my favorite metal band along with Death!!!

[@metaleramakinera]

This is gonna be my first Meshuggah new album since I got into them I'm so excited

[@bradleymartin8606]

Meshuggah have low-key written the best ever metal song here

[@SchnitzelKraft]

Huge snare part @ 2:26, sounds awesome, sound is very good overall. Love the end riff @ 4:21. This song gets better and better. Video too :)

[@dieheiligenhallen5184]

NO COMPASSION WITH THESE GUYS FROM MY SIDE.......They were warned years ago to not look down......

[@satanicbeats]

By far my favorite song of theirs since Demiurge. This album's gonna slay

[@FatalPurpose]

There's many modern drummers that are absolutely amazing, but Tomas Haake will always be the best 🤘

[@pepeperez9268]

Respect. But give it a try to Pain of Salvation's drummer Leo Margritt

[@vernzimm]

But they are a *unit*... would he be the same on his own? Is he the best ever? He's very fucking good, don't get me wrong, but the fact is, these guys have been making music together for so long, they are more than the sum of their parts.

[@bcab7955]

I love the kicks in the main riff and flurries between to keep it spicy, regardless of the chaos, his right hand usually drives a 4/4.

[@cpfantastic5576]

Have you seen the drummer of Archspire? That guy is not a human.

[@Lucasryan]

Haake isn't just the drummer... Also writes most of their stuff. The man is a fucking unicorn in the metal world!

[@Soulflythemosthigh]

The one band that never disappoints and gets better with every album! And this is just another masterpiece!

[@Mayhem666anti]

Haake doing what he can do best, be the heart of Meshuggah.

[@owenshikingandadventures9605]

The solo is so evil sounding, gives me goosebumps every time it arrives.

I have loved this band for almost 30 years. They never cease to blow my mind.

That's it. I need Meshuggah to direct the next DUNE movie.
