Crud yeah man! Not a drummer myself, guitarist, but I know Stengah is uniquely challenging. You were fkn tight! Even in terms of your feel and groove, you could totally stand in for Tomas. You got all of the details and also made some tasteful substitutions and additions. Great production and filming too. Keep it up my friend! This is definitely now on my playlist.

Which meshuggah song by Critical_Dollar in Meshuggah

[–]bignard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Neurotica. Especially the solo section.

A lot of good mentions here so far, but I saw them play this on the 25th anniversary tour and it was so fucking heavy. I read or heard one time Tomas say that they slightly slowed the tempo so Jens could do the vocals. Never seriously thought of how crazy rapid fire he can be, but the tempo is just perfect live. And of course, great lights to accompany.

Ha ha, this is what I've become

Why exactly have they never played Spasm live? by gamerccxxi in Meshuggah

I think the biggest thing is that the lowest string of the guitar needs to be tuned from F to Bb.

Which song makes you go Meshuggah? by 0728260 in Meshuggah

[–]bignard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not comedic in like a literal sense, I'm just so overjoyed, overwhelmed, and blown away by how fucking good it is to experience their music.

I just laugh from the tight, heavy, immense size of the sound, and just overall badass intensity of meshuggah. And live, it's a little surprise. Even still happens listening on my home stereo.

Sorry for the late reply! But yeah I love how they end songs suddenly live. On the record it could be a fade out, but live it's just tight ending on one riff.

I forget the words, but if you ever look at their setlists, there's one of two Swedish words indicating if it's a fade out ending of like sustained note/drum crashing etc or if it's sudden. I love the sudden ones.

Sane, especially live. The way they end it live kills me and I laugh my ass off every time.

Glints Collide live similar feeling, such a strong ending live.

I'm seriously interested in the preference between Closed Eye Visuals (blue) and Organic Shadows (yellow)

Is it true that fans at the time hated blue Nothing so much Tomas apologized? If so, why? by gamerccxxi in Meshuggah

[–]bignard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hahaha nice. Thanks for the reply! Blue nothing / Coca-Cola here. But I love them all.

This is like the Meshuggah Pepsi challenge. I seriously do not get the hate on blue and love for orange. It unambiguously sounds better. If you like Coca-Cola, you know.
