They Don’t Make Breakdowns Like They Used To

[@Roszomak9]

So hear me out, I am the person behind that sweet old lady and here is some background. Her name Is Niki and I aspire to be like her when I grow up. I met her at that concert. I was in the first row waiting for Meshuggah to start when I saw her on the side. She immediately piqued my interest, cause I had 0 clue how she got there. I started talking with her and the story is as follows: She travels a lot and tries to live life as much as possible. One day she went to see an art piece. She really liked it so she waited for the actors after the play. She talked to them and found out that one of the actresses actually went to the same high school as her daughter. This actress mentioned that her partner’s band plays a concert in NY in a few weeks and that should she come over, they will party. Actress happens to be Jessica Pimental and her partner happens to be one Thomas Haake. Niki likes experiences, so she obviously comes (without knowing anything about the band, djent or even metal). When the concert started I pushed her in front of me after the first song, cause we were quite close to the mosh pit and I didnt like her to get injured.. She not only survived the whole thing but was asking questions: “What are they singing about?”, “Why do they have so many lights?” and “Why are people being thrown forward” (about stage diving). She didn't want to leave. When I asked if she was ok she just stoically responded “I never left a single party in my life”. It was like a museum tour for her. After the concert she said “We are going to an after party, I got to meet my friend.” Do you think she had a badge or anything else to prove that she belongs to a band? Hell no! She just had her iron will and persistence. After talking with a bunch of security guys she actually went backstage. I waited outside. After a few minutes one of the crew members emerged and asked me to join them. Damn, Niki fulfilled my dream of meeting Meshuggah on f**king Meshuggah after the party. I don't have to tell you that I consider myself a super fan and how much this meant to me. In the end I got to leave the party early, but when I was leaving, Niki was still there having fun. That night I learned: never leave any party even if it seems crazy and help your elders because they can help you to meet your heroes…

Always use good judgement when helping ne1 of ne age. while yer story ended very well, some ppl's don't. Øystein Euronymous Aarseth helped out Vark Vikernes & look what happened to him, Joey Jordison helped all those bastards in Slipknot get to where they r today & again look where it landed him, I've helped older ppl in my own life & gotten nothing but disrespect of all kinds. Not from all but the vast majority, the pros don't out weight the cons in many cases. Some ppl r just more prone to attracting bad luck& shitty ppl so maybe evaluate yer own history before putting yerself out there to help others. I'm glad yer situation turned out good tho, sounded like a good time.

[@ds698]

Funny comment but so much misinformation about the actual sagas and mimir and the Asir and Vanir Tribes of old Norse history. I liked the game and all but dam, Odin is the good guy and Mimir is a giant/god like Odin. In fact in some sagas he is Odin’s brother and helped make humanity lol. It was the Vanir Tribes aka Njord Freya Freyr and so on that severed mimirs head when Honar was unable to lead the vanir tribe or make critical decisions without Mimir at his side being one of the wisest of beings. So they cut his head off and sent it back to Odin as an insult. Odin then used his magic of necromancy and the runes to bring Mimir back to life in his severed head to continue to help Odin and so on. So yeah God of War really trashed the real even cooler story then what Kratos did in both god of war games.

When they played THIS song for the encore SLOWER than on the album, the mosh pit was at the peak of its intensity -- absolutely nuts. Really home they come back to New Orleans. They have an incredibly imposing stage presence too, which I only got to observe the few times I wasn't getting thrown around like a ping-pong ball in the pit. lol

I agree that Meshuggah has some of the best riffs and breakdowns in metal history. There are some new bands that are coming out with crazy songs . Darko and Oceans Ate Alaska are the only modern bands I can think of that reminds me of Meshuggah the most. In terms of technical heaviness.

[@UnitedYeets]

I’ve seen and recorded over 110 artists this year across various genres, the combination of showmanship plus musicianship just doesn’t compare to anything with what I’ve seen ever. I’ll be increasing my upload frequency to show YT more like this, but I can say that too many artists nowadays who don’t have an organic growth to their following, seem to have better showmanship and eye candy than their musicianship - maybe it’s a 2022 Tik Tok / Eye Candy is more important kind of trend. In some 5-10 years we’ll have another batch of artists who are doing great now but their showmanship is poor or their live production is not that much of a spectacle yet.

Humanity's Last Breath, Vildhjarta, and Loathe should be on the list of modern heavy stuff granted, Loathe sounds a lot more like Alternative Metal/Rock, they still have Meshuggah-ish parts in their songs funny you'd mention OAA I like their music too, but don't find them that heavy, they still sounds like Metalcore even with the latest album being slightly closer to Deathcore not an elitist, I enjoy both, including old and new stuff EDIT: also Tesseract sounds incredible live despite not necessarily being a "heavy" band, they have their moments and deserve a mention when talking about Meshuggah.

@@aprioris.knowledge2765 I’ll be uploading Fallujah in about 3 weeks ish. Their last tour was great. Problem with Fallujah is that, for KZbin, their production is just small - all they have to carry them is their musicianship and while it gets them very far, they’re still not popular enough to put up a “show” show that people could easily watch even if they don’t know them.

Hell No They Dont Make Breakdowns Like that one anymore Future Breed Machine is an amazing Opening To A Legendary Meshuggah Album That Goes By The Name Of Destroy Erase Improve

Bruh this straight up look like a bot responding wtf

No one will ever match the mighty Meshuggah 🤘

I photographed this show. Such a great concert, they never disappoint!

[@UnitedYeets]

Boy do I have questions for you then, could you shoot me your business email if you can take questions about the night and general photography?

[@AndrewMinarikPhotography]

@@UnitedYeets Hey dude! I think my last reply got deleted cause i shared my website link, but if you go to my page here on youtube, there's a link to my website and you can contact me directly there! Would absolutely be open to answering any questions!

I can watch this over and over

I had the full vid where this clip is from on repeat for two months before I had the time to upload this haha

[@dorian1104]

This song is over 25 years old, still heavier than anything today

[@turagamaxil]

I immediately knew it was gonna be Future Breed Machine. What a classic

[@jbasti227]

This show and specifically this moment is one of the best things I’ve experienced

[@UnitedYeets]

If you can, play it on an OLED TV at the 4K60P+ HDR, most of the videos on my channel are set up this way. If you want full versions of tunes, you can only find them here - the videos are unlisted but the playlists aren’t. Meshuggah kzbin.info/aero/PLqnwnEOdrvlchvva8Z1jEfrXG5Uba2FfA

bro when i return to the gym i shall use this song to motivate me into new hights of headbanging energy

[@mugable]

This is an actual good breakfown. The bass drop, core stuff sounds so cookie cutter.

[@UnitedYeets]

Glad you liked it! More fun uploads like this to come

[@kodaavkin_music]

Now everyone else makes breakdowns like they did 😂

[@UnitedYeets]

Lmfao straight up

[@nicholasc.3928]

And still can't quite do what they do!

[@No-cg9kj]

Most of the best breakdowns come from the 2000's. Most of the newer music is listen to doesn't even have breakdowns lol.

[@TheSilverGate]

Yeah and that's why modern metal sucks, it's just like when Korn came up and then all the copycats in every corner

[@TheBanana93]

@@TheSilverGate Bro there is plenty of sick metal out there right now haha. There is a lot of shit ofc but there are some sick bands!

[@kwild6791]

Amazing quality! Why can’t all concert videos shot on the phone look/sound this damn good

[@UnitedYeets]

It’s because of the post-processing I put on it and the format it was taken in - else it would look like any other video you see out there.

[@SurvivalSuperhero]

@@UnitedYeets what post processing and format did you use? it really does look amazing

[@UnitedYeets]

@@SurvivalSuperhero thank you so much for the props, these clips can take some time to set up to record, organize, and process. It depends on the scene, but if the lighting for the venue is not bad, I record in standard HEVC Codec, 4K60FPS + HDR with Dolby Vision, then I edit these data and colour grade using Final Cut Pro X. If the lighting is a challenge or the colours and contrast are really bad, I record in ProRes 422HQ Codec with HDR at 60FPS using the Filmic Pro App on the iPhone 14 Pro. A 3-4 min song goes over 100GB in file size with this codec, but it gives me enough leeway to process the colours/lighting properly otherwise the video won’t be as enjoyable. The future of KZbin videos and general media is in HDR, but it is a lot more time consuming to work with. I hope that more and more people who pull up my videos can watch it on their OLED phone or TV to really watch it the way I had targeted.

[@attackJattack]

​@@UnitedYeets Watching on my OLED phone and oh yeah, quality is AMAZING. Nice work.

[@Ahcoolman]

Listen to more bands if you think "they don't make breakdowns like they used to". That's a basic comment.

Facts there dozens of good music and concerts out there

[@calebbean1384]

Don't take a clickbait title so seriously dude

Cool to see Gloria out in the wild.

[@777malkavian]

Lol, a seizure warning for the breakdown is needed for those on HDR monitors. The lighting work is crazy at their shows.

[@bradleyvrooman1801]

My father in law and I had to wait 30 minutes after the show to get the green streaks out of our vision so we could see stoplights lol.

[@mohammedfaqih499]

@@bradleyvrooman1801 is that how this works?? Lol

[@UnitedYeets]

The first time I saw them live, it wasn’t my first metal/rock show by far, but I was shocked at how intense their light show was…I had a headache for several hours after the show back in 2016, wished I even wore glasses. Now, I’m more used to it, but yeah this video and some of my other videos on HDR monitors and OLED devices have some crazy flashes, especially with the 60FPS.

[@Heliosphan33]

I hope they never stop playing Future Breed Machine live.

I miss them already ive been to nearly every show in LA/OC since I was 15 im 37 now lol
