Meshuggah - Rational Gaze (First Version)

[blickblocks]

NEVER SAY: "FIND THE CUPBOARD LIMES!"

[Kudblythe3]

a systematic denial of the crystaline.

[dpereira35]

I LIKE JEWS.

[TheWhocares233]

This version sounds more Raw.

[LedSatriani]

I love that guitar solo. It sounds like it's high or something.

[Astromanteia]

*Points to bottle of half full bottle of pineapple juice beside him* Need I say anything after this?

[ReyCarmesi97]

10 cunts dont like juice

[Swanton619OfDX]

Our light-induced

Image of truth

Filtered blank of its substance

...And no more fucking juice !!!!

[ReyCarmesi97]

@Swanton619OfDX juice is the reason of my entire fucking life, i has no blood but juice

[007Pogo]

This song is about Genjutsu :D

[Maxen89]

This one is perfect song, in highest volume, to drive in search for the VIP in APB:R. Very, very good everythime else

[TheIronParasite]

Rational gaze, video 1 freaky images, video 2 wierd green room of wierd effects. video 3: jens making funny faces! xD

[HeadBed101]

motha fuka sure likes his juice i thought he said i like jews lool

[PissingEverybody]

LOOOVE MESHUGGAH! When I'm feeling angry, hearing this band makes me EVEN MORE ANGRIER... just like an "angry overdose" or some crazy shit like that.

And that feels so damn good! Then, when the album's finished, I feel so relaxed that I don't even remember why I was so pissed off before. TRY IT!

[Tool78Maynard]

@PissingEverybody Agreed..try listening to any album by meshuggah while working out. Enough said.

[PissingEverybody]

@Tool78Maynard HELL YEAH!

[Dude11191]

@PissingEverybody Dont drink redbull then listen to this while angry...nuff said.

[ESPJT]

i like juice, it is so true

[ThePuffer420]

its sad to think that people listen to uneven structure,volumes,forms,periph­ery,veil of maya and a shit ton of other djent bands and have no idea who meshuggah is the people who fucking started it all

[cvasudevan82]

The riffs sound like Nevermore ripoff

[kvetonp]

@cvasudevan82 hahaahha

[Erithlon]

@cvasudevan82 No.

[GhostFramez]

@cvasudevan82 It's actually a rip-off of The Beatles.

[XplodingGuy]

@cvasudevan82  what are you, thick

[Ryanmiceter]

This version is so brutal

[fbartek]

this ver is much better

[shanadz1]

i'm so glad i'm not the only one who always thought this man had a love for juice.

[Itsoeasyafterall]

There were 10 Irrational gays that've been here.

[eyehatepop]

I definitely think they should have kept the actual drum tracks on the re-issue. They sound so much more beefier

[bw618728]

these guys gave so many bands a foundation. what a sexy song. its one of those songs that you hear and thought you heard it before because if you love meshuggah, this song was theirs before they even wrote it. one of the most persistent heavy bands ever! I love you meshuggah for being meshuggah. fuck yeah.and whats with the juice shit?i guess i was too busy having a mental orgasm to notice.

[arseymcpherson]

I LIIIIKE JUICE, IT'S CHARTREUSE, FILTERED LIKE A BIG SAUSAGE

[SemperEAS7]

I like juice in a shark suit.

[Uzingniga20]

Whoever says this awesome shit is emo music are all wrong!

Meshuggah is an awesome band. Who is with me?

[Rohhaut]

...such a beautiful noise! Makes me bang my head on whatever surface I find.

[JHJazzExplosion]

I LIIIEEEKKK JUICE!

FinISH YOUR JUICE,

FILTERED VITAMIN sUBStANCE!!!

[thismortalsoil92]

@JHJazzExplosion Hahahahaha Well done you made me CRY ahahahaha!

[stopglobalswarming]

[LerakKcirtapEimaj]

@JHJazzExplosion omfg

[splitsecondlogic]

i like jews! its the truth

[paperpro3223]

i like juice hahahahaha

[Thetrooper14]

i love how polirythms sound in metal

[rickiporter42]

@Thetrooper14 not polyrythyms... polymeters

[Ecko486]

@rickiporter42 I hate being one of those people who sound like know-it-alls on youtube comments but thetrooper14 was right, it IS polyrythmes

[MetalTCG]

i don't get why 9 people don't like it, mainly because if you don't like it you should watch something else.

[shavoserjical]

whats the difference between this version and the remastered?

[DoubleO7even]

@shavoserjical the guitars were redone and the vocals have reverb added or something...just go listen to the remastered version to know what i mean

[ShapeshifterMusic]

@DoubleO7even Drums were also programmed.

[BmGeoBm]

@ShapeshifterMusic catch 33 is the only album with programmed drums...all the other albums feature tomas as drummer. indeed, they compose the drums on a computer software, but the recording is done by tomas, on real drums...all except catch 33, as I said before.

[MickeyLWalker]

@jiggaboo904

djent is a tone you goober

[MrAdo006]

the letters are serbian :D

[Jomby007]

@MrAdo006

the letters are in Cyrillic, which origins from Bulgaria, not Serbia :)

[MrAdo006]

@Jomby007 dude i live in serbia for 9 years and i certainly know the language

:D and serb's use Cyrillic as well. VUK KARADZIC, a serbian linguist made the Cyrillic alphabet so it's serbian :D

[Jomby007]

@MrAdo006 you can check it in wikipedia if u want :) it was developed by Kliment Ohridski, so stfu :)

[MrAdo006]

@Jomby007 its simple i can read it and understand it you cant i do not know Bulgarian and i recognize my language

[DreamTheater4life]

@jiggaboo904 good thing this isn't djent =)

[vasiliskannas]

AWESOME!!! HAIL FROM GREECE!!!

[xAzriphalex]

[jk47hm4]

This music video is intense as hell...

[Triumph152]

First 30 seconds here make me want to start hitting people.

[NoStickTricks]

Oh, i really can't tell, what version I prefere: Original or Remastered. Both are too awesome!

[SlatausWinder]

I LIKE JEWS !

[mrkibbles369]

I love this version, sounds more gritty and vibrant.

[U2SaxFan]

[supah1337B]

[Helladrendoria]

[Jhartsock123]

[peurosado]

This is one of the most feeling solo ever!

[BCWProductions]

I like juice, Image of truth.

[MickeyLWalker]

@BCWProductions

[randybunny]

@BCWProductions I hear the juice thing too. Comical when someone asks me if I like juice and I scream like Jens.

[Onedarknight]

@BCWProductions He likes juice...and its the truth...

[los2restantes]

esta re bien verga!

Nice Good

[setonend]

I Thought meshuggah translated to "chaotic"

[xxxslayerxxx666]

it's yiddish for crazy.

[TinyClocks]

songs sick. period.

[cholericparadigm]

u guys are all dumb.. its "our light induced, image of truth..." hahaha i used to think i like juice too

[zxcvbnm600]

this is fucking awesome :O

[kornkyd09]

this is the unmastered version, not the first. thought id let ya know. I like both mastered and unmastered- the unmastered has a rawer sound to it.

[julianisface]

@kornkyd09

naw they rerecorded nothing with a drum machine and rereleased it this is the original cd release with real drums.

i read wikipedia...

[Wolfsblood6]

wikipedia...lmao

[Avoryne]

@julianisface

Ah.

So that's why it doesn't sound as strong for the percussion.

[HidetoraHikimonji]

@kornkyd09

I love how the china sounds in this one.

It's Huuuuugeeee!!

[arseymcpherson]

juice slurp

[gokujr9090]

I LIKE JUIIIICE!!

[DimeForGod]

I thought he said I like Jews

[mason492]

me and the wife for years thought it was I like juice.....thats funny shit!!!!

[robostomo1]

IIIIIII LIKKKEEE JUUIIIICCEEE

[1410199088]

@robostomo1 for me it sounds like "i like jews" meshuggah means something on jewish i'm not sure what :D

[kornkyd09]

@1410199088 i think I recall Meshuggah being translated into Crazy

[typ0011death]

Sounds more like 'I LIKE JUICE'

Just saying, it sounds like 'joos' more than 'jooz'.

[Avoryne]

@1410199088

It's yiddish for "insane"

[misanthrope013]

sick groove

[x106erFreakx]

dip shit...

sorry^^

greetz from the beautiful germany^^

[Blueracer]

I first saw the vid on Fuse a few years ago. It stuck in my head.

[Purkinje90]

This version sound a lot like the original version, but not exactly.

Thanks for this! the visuals go well with this...

[violentanatomy]

Video kind of reminds me of the opening credits for "Se7en"

[Thedudeisadude]

this isn't the very first version made...

the original sounds completely different from this one

[dubtr3]

Meshuggah is an absolutely incredible band. Beyond words.

[catylist666]

One of my favorites. Thanks DAN1PL.

[excommunicatio]

Lol I can actually understand/read some of the textual material presented in the video as it is written in my native language, Serbian. One of the headlines of the articles expounds glands and another one stresses Arabic Metrics and so on.

I just find it amazing that they'd take snapshots of a book written in Slavic lang and put it in their video. I presume it's cause Slavic langs are generally considered mystical as they're not very well known outside the Slavic-speaking dominion.

[MickeyLWalker]

1:26 I Like Juice!

[Rohhaut]

It's "...our light-induced image...". But "I like juice" is pretty funny!

[MickeyLWalker]

lol ya i know now, i didnt think he said i like juice, but i bet he wouldnt disagree

[explosionguy]

@MickeyLWalker i like meshuggah!!!!!

[UnseenKnight]

@MickeyLWalker tobad its 1:27 lol

[RobtheElf]

@MickeyLWalker LOL

[Hzqi]

@MickeyLWalker

You misunderstand. Jens is actually expressing his pro-semite views.

"I like Jews".

[MrAdo006]

@MickeyLWalker he says i like jews

[MickeyLWalker]

nopers

jens all about the JUICE!

[replica07]

"Reality untouchable, transparent, invisible

to our fixed, restricted fields of vision

Existence taken for granted. -Absolute"

To me hes saying, that as humans were being constantly deceived by our eyes and mind, and that as fallible as we are cant see "ultimate reality" as it truely is. We cant find the answers/truths to reality. As well as other things like, not being able tell what people are truely thinking etc. its difficult to explain it over this, i suppose lol.

[darwinism14]

thank you very much... never seen this.

downtuning of guitars is unmatched.

[xGRAIVx]

i agree with style changing from cd to cd. i also like meshuggah because there are really no two similar songs on each album... cept catch 33 which was just one big song.

[guitargraeme1]

they change their style with each album

[redrum36105997]

just a groovin along

[woahkudros]

I LIKE CAPSLOCK

[guitargraeme1]

hahahaaaa

[guitargraeme1]

best one yet:P

[plopenstien]

@woahkudros

CAPSLOCK IS CRUISE CONTROLL FOR COOL!

[HernandeztheHero]

@plopenstien hahahahahaha

[HernandeztheHero]

@woahkudros LMAO!

[MickeyLWalker]

@woahkudros mines better

:)

[FATLAYNE]

I LIKE SODA

[brandonshiza]

lmao " I LIKE JUICE!!!"

[laikiunreal]

Here the lyrics in order, enjoy!!

[laikiunreal]

Squint your eyes to see clearly

Blur reality to make it real

Let focus go from your deceiving eyes to know what's been concealed

We've all been blinded

Subjects to visual misinformation

A systematic denial of the crystalline

To see the fine grain, to read the hidden words

The context of parallel truth

Devoid of fragmentation

[laikiunreal]

Our light-induced image of truth

Filtered blank of its substance

As our eyes won't adhere to intuitive lines

Everything examined, Separated, one thing at a time

The harder we stare the more complete the

disintegration

Dissolution

Eyes re-opened, Reasoning focalized, Receptors activated

[laikiunreal]

Perspectives distorted

The ladder beyond our grasp

The twin-headed serpent forever hidden

Where's the true knowledge -

Where engines of the sane and insanity merge

The clarity. The unity

Reality untouchable, transparent, invisible

to our fixed, restricted fields of vision

Existence taken for granted. -Absolute

[laikiunreal]

Possessed, owned, controlled

By the common sense-infected rational gaze

Onward forever we walk among the ignorant

Never stray from the common lines

[Hypocrisies]

That's the most manliest "I LIKE JUICE" I have ever heard.

[Metallicafreak93]

lol Yeah XD

[alexmejia26]

Macanudo

[Caconymic]

Nice find.

[1410199088]

Insane!

[braxtonashley]

HAHA it does sound like he says he likes juice.

[ScizofrenicDrummer]

I like Jews. Their name comes from the hebrean (jewish) word Mesúga, which mean Crazy, or insane. So I think he says I like jews, as a small joke, but it's probably wrong :P

[xxsectumsempraxx]

he says 'our light induced image of truth' but it sounds like 'i like juice.' haha.

[Revolutionismyname11]

i noticed that too but i thought i was the only one

[nogeNLC]

he says "our light-induced image of truth", but yeah it does sound like he says I like juice haha

[Jgresko]

i clearly hear "our light-enduced" not "i like juice"...

[Chris0BW]

I can't decide which version of Nothing is better :)

[Chris0BW]

1:26

I like juice too !

[thumperhc]

Right?! Thats what Im hearing too! Ahhh I love these bastards

[tiki2188]

love this song!

[nX39]

Book that you see on this video is on Serbian language.....cool

[1410199088]

То је био разлог зашто сам мислио да је Meshuggah Српски бенд...

That was the reason i thought Meshuggah is Serbian band

[evanfity]

possibly one of the heavyest riffs ever?

[MunkyCZ]

The second version is better... more MAD

[unclesamistheman]

Saw them in Detroit at Harpo's backing Slayer. Massive!

[davethestoner]

When was this?

[unclesamistheman]

You know the pit there = my bud and I were on the 1st level front row direct center = we had to pull up a ko'ed mosher who weighed over 200 lbs and thats a 12 foot drop. we dragged him back 10 feet and dropped him there still out cold. This was when Meshuggah was just breaking it.

Had to be I think at least over 7 years or so ago ...

I really don't remember what slayer tour it was for.

Sorry. I think Meshuggah had 3 releases out ...
