What's insane is that many talented musicians can break down Meshuggah in many cool ways, however very few can make something as original as Meshuggah. I mean there are certain gimmicks Meshuggah uses, but the trick is how they make it groovy and organic instead of gimmicky and generic. There's a pulse to it rather than a beat, it just feels very much alive and breathing - while it also somehow feels super extradimensional and desolate. Great break down 👌

@blkmtl96 Жыл бұрын

Many a band can play djent but only does meshuggah make it sound like you're communicating with some sort of extra dimensional being/ alien.
