Meshuggah has been my all time favorite band since June 1995. Crazy to see their popularity rise only after obzen. I like watching the stages of fans. When I tried to show “metal heads” Meshuggah back in 95-96 everyone thought it was noise or they “couldn’t get into it”. Now they like em.

[@guitargodxbox22]

You so original and 1 in a million good for you

[@Nexushuggah]

Damn straight. OG status. Proud of liking a band when they first started and no one knows of or liked them, as opposed to when they get popular with the populace. 😘

[@baraldobumpa3447]

Just enjoy music

[@daves4589]

Just took me a while. Now I realize how badly I sucked at life 😃

[@SterlingSimmons22]

They were like a more complex rhythm version of Metallica back then. Now they sound like extra terrestrial meaty riff masters

[@8SweetPotatoLattes]

Super cool video! Glad to see Do Not Look Down get love, it's been my favorite riff of theirs for a decade.

[@coneplays3691]

Thank you! Scary to think that it was a decade ago!

[@8bytman]

I like to see that Do Not Look Down is so high on your list, love that song

[@SterlingSimmons22]

Do not look down is by far my favorite riff of all time from them. So damn groovy. Good video showcasing the riffs man! Their new album is packed lots of great riffs too.

[@henriquegoulartgeneroso]

Nice tone and riff selection bro!

[@coneplays3691]

Thank you so much! :D

[@dissonantiabandofficial9307]

OLHA SÓ QUEM EU ENCONTREI

[@henriquegoulartgeneroso]

@@dissonantiabandofficial9307 OOOH YOU APPROACH ME

[@VirgoKing89]

Well done! I wholeheartedly agree with this selection of riffs. Clockworks and The Spiteful Snake have some sick ones as well! 🖤🖤🖤💀💀💀🔥🔥🔥👍🏽🙏🏽🙌🏽

[@coneplays3691]

Thanks!! Yup totally agree, this spiteful snake is just groove central!

[@fourseasons4105]

My top 10: 1. In death is death (bridge riff) 2. New millennium cynice Crist (riff right before the outro) 3. Dancers to a discordant system (two final riffs) 4. Paradoxical spiral 5. Demiurge (bridge riff) 6. Straws pulled at random (melodic riff) 7. Marrow (intro) 8. Born in dissonance (main riff) 9. Pineal gland optics (intro/main riff) 10. Organic shadows (intro/main riff)

[@madebyfredrik]

It's kind of funny how every one gets the guitar riff correct on Combustion but the drums are playing a backbeat on the track.

[@devq3852]

Before i opened the video i was making the demiurge sound with my mouth and damn , u just started the video with that

[@coneplays3691]

Haha amazing!

[@vazzydazzy]

Bro I wholeheartedly see why stengah is number one, it's stupid groovy. My 10 riffs would be 10. Organic Shadows 9. Sickening 8. Straws 7. Break those bones 6. New Millennium 5. Stengah 4. Elastic 3. Rational Gaze 2. Spasm 1. Inside whats within behind Listen to them all boys 🤘🤘

[@coneplays3691]

Organic shadows is criminally underrated, that middle section is groove central.

[@vazzydazzy]

@@coneplays3691 like the guitar solo part?

[@coneplays3691]

@@vazzydazzy from 2:13

[@alrightalrightalright4280]

My favorite “I” starting at 10:30

[@user-xt4wj3ke5i]

I headbang to that shit like no one

[@LuisLopez-jt7dh]

Miss some Autonomy Lost/Imprint of the Unsaved/Disenchantment here, it is so hard to choose just 10 good riffs from Meshuggah

[@tompayton84]

After seeing them live just over a week ago, born in dissonance is my new favourite song of theirs 🤘🏻

[@coneplays3691]

Bloodstock? That song is a banger 🤘

[@user-hp6lg3tm7d]

That guitar looks sick 🔥

[@detts5082]

what an fucking beautiful guitar

[@daniel_naaden]

I want that guitar so bad, pointy 8-string ftw! and a Dean ML, too, my favorite shape ever!

[@TheShakour]

Surprised to see Stengah in this list... One of most underrated meshuggah songs.

[@treagonmoss]

Nice video! Personally I would have put Monstrocity on this list

[@animeguitarcovers3254]

That's an AMAZING axe!

[@coneplays3691]

It's a Dean ML8 Modifier if you wanted to know :)

[@heck114]

For me, its our rage wont die and born in dissonance

[@h3r3tic66]

Damn bro, nice job on bleed, not many people can do it

[@MegaAcceber]

Awesome!! 👌🏻👌🏻

[@solyamidoremifasolya1027]

Отличная работа, Олег..)

[@abhishekjohal5334]

More power to you 💪

[@adolphuswright6509]

Good job buddy!!!!

[@heavenly2k]

Pretty good selection but I think Stifled should be on here 👀 and Break Those Bones

[@coneplays3691]

The end riff on Stifled is groove central!

[@bruceanthony8345]

A tacos of Pechuggah and Lechuggah please

[@nepmobile3583]

Great video!!

[@coneplays3691]

Thank you so much! ☺️

[@manipulatingyou]

Pretty much any riff from Gods of Rapture should be on this list. Among many many others. I couldn't possibly name even a top 50!

[@TeaspoonUlysses]

Hell yeah, Stengah.

[@ikey730]

Top Ten Meshuggah Songs: 10: Autonomy Lost 09: Straws Pulled at Random 08: Lethargica 07: Phantoms 06: Perpetual Black Second 05: New Millenium 04: Demiurge 03: Electric Red 02: Rational Gaze 01: Bleed

[@UncleRJ]

I'm surprised none of TVOR made into your list.

[@coneplays3691]

Clockworks and stifled were in the running!

[@terjeingebrigtsen2662]

No Elastic is a crime !

[@Averag3Jo3]

🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥

[@Nexushuggah]

Wanna see some destroy erase improve.

[@coneplays3691]

Definitely some bangers on there! Transfixion and Future Breed Machine were in the running!

[@Milk_Bone]

Great video, not so great compressed EMG tone lmao

[@Titan19701]

🤘🤘

[@jejehorizon2594]

Damn i think i have the same rank like you

[@coneplays3691]

Yaaaas! 😄

[@gaborkrausz5402]

Amazing tone, but where's catch33? ;(

[@raulstandpena7869]

Cuál es la afinación

[@feliperibeiro463]

Putting Demiurge in a Meshuggah top 10 should be considered a crime. They have so much better.

[@captainflappyarms8277]

Meshuggah vs mick gordon

[@d.o.9808]

Where is the riff of the breakdown of Lethargica, or Corridor of Chameleons? None of Catch 33? well, it´s your opinion but there are several riffs that are better than these

[@coneplays3691]

There are so many amazing riffs from Meshuggah it was really hard to narrow it down. I could do a top ten from each album and it would still leave out top tier riffs, maybe I should do this... 🤔

[@d.o.9808]

@@coneplays3691 good idea, I will see that video for sure

[@maximilianzobisch731]

Bleed sounds a lil bit odd

wtf you play bleed wrong, Gotta go on the 5th
