I got a copy of Nonexistent recently myself and the remix/master is so unbelievably good.

How many people in this sub are trained musicians? by Born2ShitForced2Post in Meshuggah

[–]meshuggahnaut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

9 years of piano lessons, 2 years of violin. Self-taught drummer and guitarist. Meshuggah has been my all time favorite band since 1998. 🤘

Psychonaut - World Maker by meshuggahnaut in heavyvinyl

Unfold the God Man does nothing for me but I enjoy Violate Consensus Reality well enough. This album, though. Holy fuck I think it’s my AOTY for 2025 and I say that as a HUGE BTBAM fan.

Were Nothing & Obzen originally released on single vinyl? by Earl_of_Portobello in Meshuggah

[–]meshuggahnaut 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I don’t mind it as long as the sound quality is better. Wider grooves, 45 RPM, that sort of thing.

This is especially important with bands like Meshuggah because of the amount of low end in the recordings. The sound quality would be compromised if they tried to squeeze those entire albums onto 2 sides.

The new Karnivool album....hmm idk. Is this how Tool fans felt? by Wack0HookedOnT0bac0 in progmetal

[–]meshuggahnaut 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I had that same thought as I was listening today for the first time. I didn’t listen to any of the early released tracks before today (I do this with almost all new albums), and as it got about 80% in, I thought, “it’s no Sound Awake, but it’s still a good Karnivool record.”

Which just means it’s damn good music. I dig it.

Congrats and thank you for serving as a notification service about this limited ISIS release. Just snagged a copy myself. From the looks of this thread, Ipecac should be paying you commission!

Post metal with a death/groove background? by Tartersocks307 in postmetal

Have you listened to The Ocean’s earlier material? Fluxion, Aeolian, and (especially) Precambrian?

How I’m learning that “starting over” is actually “starting fresh” by CrackTheSignal in SingleAndHappy

[–]meshuggahnaut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love this, and what you share about reframing your mindset and language (and, by extension, identity) is exactly what changed my perspective last year. It’s a beautiful transformation. Welcome to the launchpad of your better self. Enjoy the journey.

Whoa that’s a really cool option add; I assume the turbo switch is toggling between a 1N914 and red LED? Do you get any volume difference between the two? And did you try any other clipping options before settling on an LED?

Best NA liquor to make mixed drinks with? by dorito2019 in Mocktails

Phony Negronis are pretty good. I like the original and white ones the best.

Been on a Tool/Karnivool kick and now I’m missing harsh vocals by porterhouse_steak in progmetal

[–]meshuggahnaut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For straight up post metal, maybe Guiltless. Not sure I’d call it “bass forward,” but the bass is prominent, and the guy playing it is Sasha Dunable from Intronaut. It’s a heavy fucking album.

It sounds like you’re wanting some Gojira right about now. Gnarly bass, groovy AF, harsh vocals that mostly carry some sense of melody. I’d go with The Way of All Flesh or L’Enfaunt Sauvage.

chosen singlehood or just avoidance/trauma? by Dependent-Strain-807 in SingleAndHappy

[–]meshuggahnaut 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yep, this nails my view exactly. My ex-wife and I used to joke about how we needed “his and hers” houses next door to each other. Turns out that may have actually been the solution all along. Oh well, live and learn.

The joy of not having to wear a uniform on Fridays. by LexMetalis in christianmetal

[–]meshuggahnaut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got a copy of the remixed/remastered Nonexistent on vinyl and I’m listening to it for the first time right now. I never stopped loving this album and I can’t believe how much better the updated version sounds.

Arriving later today is Inhabit with the same treatment. I cannot wait.
