I'm back, covering a song that's older than me. Because I've committed to only ever cover music that means something to me, never trendy music I don't care about. Love ❤ ►► Watch me mix this cover: patreon.com/joaoldmedeiros

Bro brought back a HOOD CLASSIC

These guys were LIGHTYEARS ahead of their time man. This damn song came out in 1995!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can you believe it?! Right along side Pearl Jam and all the other 90s boys

This song crushes . I love how old meshuggah still feels like it fits in with the current metal scene.

Name another song that has the best slam section of all time followed by the best jazz guitar solo of all time followed by the 2 best breakdowns of all time, all while being one of the the best thrash songs and also one of the first djent songs. I'll wait

H A R D

This guitar tone is insane

Meshuggah's 90s releases were so influential. There were no other bands like them at the time.

3:14. Stank Face still activated even after all these years later. This is great🤘

Almost 30 years later and sounds like released today (riff wise). Awesome cover, man!

What people think is hard: most of the song. what is actually hard: the clean section at 1:58

Best production and mix to date man this shit is harder then nails🥶🥶

when meshuggah came by on the last tour, i thought they weren't gonna have this song on the setlist. was walking away from the pit after humilative thinking they were gonna close with bleed and they played this song. never ran back faster in my life. sick cover for the heaviest metal song ever.

Simply one of the most important songs to modern metal of all time, great video João, mandou muito!

Meshuggah's early stuff still hits so hard. A really all-time masterpiece, genius musicians. Thank you for your work❤❤

The king is back🙌🏻 3:39 I know that pain haha 4:01 pure headband riff Very fitting mix, LOVE IT!

FBM was the first Meshuggah song I ever heard and is still one of my all-time faves. That 7/8 over 4/4 breakdown and then the airy solo going into a tripleted chug. Headbang heaven. And you killed it, my dude. Love that Schecter KM7.

Just saw them live in Madison and it was life changing. Their older stuff is just as good as everything in their catalog. Great vid, as always

YES! MESHUGGAH! Your playing is super tight and your mix captures the essence of this album amazingly! It's an improvement to the original in my honest opinion. I was checking your channel to see if you uploaded anything since your last upload. It's been a while but your quality is always top notch! AMAZING ❤

THE TONE IS INSANELY ON POINT!!! GODDAMM

I can't imagine what coming across this in '95 would've been like. Shit still sounds absolutely visceral to this day. Amazing cover my dude!

The guitar tone on this track is absolutely perfect! He nailed it. 🤘🤘🤘🤘

first time I heard Meshuggah was when Swedish radio aired one of their live sets on a show called P3 Live. This was before Destroy Erase Improve was released, so around 93-95. I recorded the show on my cassette player and listened over and over to this song. Been a fan since! Also, good job

Long time no see, legend. Always wanted a sick mixed instrumental of this song. So cool

Destroy Erase Improve is one of the best albums of the 90s. Great cover.

An absolute BANGER of a song to cover and you did absolutely phenomenal work in every way, like always! You are a legend of this type of content, happy holidays

I love that when they play it live it's slightly slower, and somehow more brutal 😤

That tone!!! 4:01 hits like a truck

Unreal how clean and tight that is. No idea how much time you must have spent on that, but is was a massive pleasure to experience the result! Super inspiring.

The playing, the tone the drums the bass the mix... It all soundS so fucking good!!!!!!!!!!

Man, it's great having you back with a Meshuggah classic. Though Bleed may be their most popular song, this one surely is my favourite. Watched it live almost 10 years ago and it was absolutely incredible!

TIGHT mix. Probably my favorite Meshuggah song too.

Your Tone/sound/production is AMAZING!! Such a sick cover of a sick song, good job!!!

tbh that dissonant intro with semitone (?) step and speeding up (?) tempo is just so dope that I don't need weed to get high, I just listen to that part

Did not expect this. Absolute banger

Mon ami it feels good to see you back 🤩 This band isn't my cup of tea but it was a pleasure to discover the song through your cover, sick performance and mix as always ❤

Wow no one expected this song 😃. Awesome cover with perfect quality as always! Somehow Meshuggah sounds nicer with this higher tuning.

my favorite Meshuggah song, after all these years. Also, you fucking crushed it, nice job!

Holy SI&! Epic! Meshuggah are the kings of metal! Nice work and tone!

Classic! First time I heard this song was at this small club near my hometown, they had just released Catch 33 at the time. I wasn't into them at this point and I was there to see God Forbid but once they played those opening notes, I was like, "wtf is this?!" Well done, as always!

Ma boy back at it again! Good seeing you chug the hell outta ur guitars again ❤

This album was my shit in my junior year of highschool. I'd listen to it in full everyday for at least a month straight. Not only did this bring back memories, but this was a sick ass cover

i've listened to this 3 times already

Absolutely amazing work buddy. You nailed it, so clean. Testament to how far ahead of the curve Meshuggah are is that this still features in their sets.

Nice, what an unexpected and welcomed cover! If you ever feel like recording and releasing a cover of this entire album I’d honestly listen to yours over theirs lol. Mix and sound quality are so much better.

So good to see this classic! Hells yeah!

I bet someone also saw Meshuggah live this year

Não some assim João, pensei que você tinha morrido!😭😭😭😭😭

Use me as the GOAT button 🐐

Love it!! One of my faves!

Sheeeeeesssshh. Thanks for throwing it back for this one. One of the best of their tunes.

hol' up, let him cook

I'm changing my gf contact name to this song title

This song is a masterpiece

The legends say he returned for the holidays

Great sound, fresh air for a good old classic

DUDE I've been waiting for this one for a long time...Thanks a lot!

Impeccable cover Joao! I always love to get Joao KZfaq notifications

Love this song so much, absolutely amazing cover man, love the production!!

sounds amazing as always

thank you sooooo much for thisss. extremely satisfying to hear!! listened at full volume, that was so fun!! glad to know you are committed to doing music you love ❤

So glad to see you back! I was worried! Amazing vid!!!

Love to see the old Meshuggah songs get some love for a change. Spot on playing! Cheers.

the mix is just perfect this sound really amazing

MASSIVE mix Joao. Great work as always.

Been a fan of you covers ever since the early days. I keep on getting inspired by your playing, and amazin precision in the accuracy of your transcriptions.

Absolutely nailed it!!! Well done 👌🤘

Wrist breaking good time! Glad your back!

Maaann this is super crisp!! Legendary as always, João

I remember back when I was a wee little laddie in 2004 with Killswitch Engage, Korn, SoaD, Static-X, Linkin Park and Disturbed on my playlist at the time. Then I found the name "Meshuggah" somewhere, found it super badass, so I downloaded Chaosphere... And then I promptly shat myself, like WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS, and I was completely obsessed with them for the next 6 months. They were 6000 levels above everyone else, I had never heard anything like them before. This shit still sounds super modern and alien, even after almost 30 years since its release. Absolute god tier band.

Incredible João! So happy to see you’re back. Sounds amazing and the editing was great 🤘

What a song to tackle holy dude

Man comes back with a bang! Killer cover dude. Production is top shelf!

So happy that you are back my dude, did myself a favor and pledged to your patreon, my snare is slamming now with the room processing. Looking forward to more videos and tips and tricks from you. And thank you for making me realize mixing does not have to be rocket science if you just know what to do with what you have

The quality of this video is superb. Amazingly performed, clean scenario and edit. Love it!

I missed you man!! Glad to see you with another banger!

Your meshuggah covers are endlessly inspiring and entertaining, but then again thats all your covers! Keep it up man 💜

just got to see them live a month ago. unreal. 100% the best live show on earth.

O reizinho voltoooou!

the transition from the solo part to the groove part is something else. sick cover again

I just saw them play this live last weekend and it was EPICCC!

Incredible!!! We missed you and your covers bro!!! Top notch stuff as usual… mix is unreal 😍

Happy that your back ❤ I honestly don’t enjoy this type of music but it was perfectly executed and I stayed until the very end haha 🔥

Brutal mano, o tom, as notas, o groove...espetacular bro, que venha mais meshuggah para as nossas almas

Mix is cleeeean my dude. Been following you for years and you're still at the top of guitar covers on KZfaq. Always an example to strive for!

love it

This is, hands down, my all-time favorite FBM cover I've seen so far, throughout the years. Flawless playing and all the parts are there and spot on, including the second solo (which is rare)! Cheers man, this was great!

Damn dude you f*ing naild it!! Mad respect.

cé loco, cara! que parada insana foi essa!?! sensacional!

This was so much fun to watch, well done dude 🔥🤘🔥

this is so sick! just saw these guys in Boston like a few weeks ago. I always wondered what some of their older stuff would sound like with a more modern mix.

This is sick mate ! Great job 😎

Your attention to detail in everything in this cover is nothing short of incredible. Absolutely incredible work man.

Glad you’re back homie ♥️♥️♥️♥️

What a comeback

Awesome play-thru! Edit was🔥🔥🔥

This is one of my favorite meshuggah songs. I never had a guitar that could play it that low but most of the guesses I made in my head about how to play it were proven correct by this video. Great video! I may have to buy a pitch shifter now.

Best meshuggah song to witness live in my opinion. Pure madness, energy and awesome lighting!

As some russian guitarists would say: you are hammering the nails (ты забиваешь гвозди). It means that you extract good agressive sound from the guitar strings that reminds hammering the nails. :)

Dude that was so awesome! The sound and playing were literally 100% perfect in every way. The whole song is great, but the solo section on this is one of my favorites. That was really cool to watch, thanks a lot.
