Meshuggah - Dancers To A Discordant System

[romplstomp]

This shit will melt your God Damn face.

[BigProcATC]

Ahh good call on the 666

[Niamorg1007]

These lyrics are mindfucking.

[trioxinforlunch]

favourite meshuggah track

[rockbudd0250]

did anyone notice the 666 ? :D

[mariorossipuzza]

@rockbudd0250 where?

[rockbudd0250]

@mariorossipuzza look at his hands , you can see hes making a 6 shape

[DillingerEscapeMan]

New stuff = disappointment

[IStoleYourMumsName]

@DillingerEscapeMan Heard the new stuff live yesterday and it was far from dissapointing to me.

[nightmantis]

ow....my soul

[SweetAmericanMustard]

5:56 = and so it begins.

[Trawlling]

am I the only one who start to randomly tap meshuggah patterns with his finger, when bored ? People sometimes think i have parkinson, especially when i do Bleed

[Morgenstern591]

@Trawlling i do the same thing, started when discovered meshuggah and i think i will be tapping till my death xD

[NongIsRad]

@Trawlling yeah I do alot of when walking around in work, funny enough to bleed ahah, i must like a cunt

[PASTAandMUSE]

@Trawlling Dude i always tap the rhythms to Catch 33, and the patterns to Bleed in class...and Rational Gaze...and the ending to this song...My teachers fuckin LOVE me:D...And so do my friends who sit next to me:D

[jonbri16]

This is the one song i NEVER get tired of. Can't wait for the new album!

[slaythedickheads]

I'm going to be DJ to a school party.. If I get 100 thumbs up, I put this song on!!

[Deathkavaderva]

@slaythedickheads

Fucking do it!

[Nikademiks]

This song automatically turns up the volume on your computer by 50%

[wyyyyyyyrsde]

love from Dub&Grub weve always loved meshuggah.

[pauhell]

the bestmetalband inthe fucking history (well not maiden)

[Bludhoundz8]

These lyrics are so brilliantly well written!

[pwnmaster9]

Love their melodic displacement, there so insane when it comes to odd time signitures

[MrAnchell]

tha ginoume KOLOSS

[chaosad22]

groovy Demilich, loving it

[pr0llyn0t]

@chaosad22 Yeah I thought of that at the beginning of the song too, pretty good ha

[scoar1]

i just got a nose bleed.

[TourettesOrc]

Meshuggah are stuck in a paralelle world of funk

[CCosby1]

Meshuggah > Djent

[kevinmm20]

At 4:40, it hits a new level of fucking heavy

[BenjaminKuruga]

@kevinmm20 It really does,

If your ever asked "What is the one and only way to listen to Heavy Metal?"

you answer "LOUD"

[brockerhoff]

categorize this in the fucking garbage that are "djent" bands. and consider yourself a faggot.

[MiddleGrounder]

@brockerhoff Had to read this a few times to understand what you were saying, but I totally agree. Fuck djent.

[baDoom111]

@brockerhoff Um. Djent is some bullshit that came out in the past few years. Meshuggah has been around more than 20. All those djent bands are just ripping them off and are nowhere near as good at it.

[CombatWombat1995]

@baDoom111 Djent aint shit. Its just a new wave (or generation) of progressive metal. If you was a true Meshuggah fan, you'd be happy that a new generation of musicians have also shown an interest in Meshuggah.

[MetalxXxMayhem]

@baDoom111 I don't hate it. I love that really low tone. Djent is a stupid name, but the music is cool. Some of it at least. Meshuggah fucking rules regardless. \m/!!

[slaymmugodknotera]

@baDoom111 Fuck yea man I just heard of djent when I saw this. That is the dumbest fucking thing I've heard in my life. MESHUGGAH is their own sound PERIOD! Like you said Meshuggah has been around for over 20 years and in another 20 years the majority of meshuggah fans(kids that don't even know what metal is yet)will be all like"yea Ive been a meshuggah fan since I can remember,I think that chaosphere was their best album and they went too mainstream"unlike others,MESHUGGAH will always progress

[MRkofteburger]

I like top comments :D

[zero88777]

@psyckla5 Nah that's pretty normal

[ThisSaturatedMind]

Pelvic thrust metal

[JoeyThe14th]

The best progressive extreme technical experimental death groove metal band by a long shot.

[AylatheRaichu]

@JoeyThe14th Couldn't you just shorten that to Djent?

[BenjaminKuruga]

@AylatheRaichu Couldn't you just lengthen that to Meshuggah?

[limeman2]

@JoeyThe14th hahahahahha it's funny 'cause it's true

[ShreddyMacFunTits]

I'm so very tempted to flag this as inappropriate. Too many heads have exploded already.

[Krapvag]

you know something's not right if meshuggah makes you cry

[veuillezchoisir]

Meshuggah is just THE band. Meshuggah is from the yidish for Mad : Meshugge (dont know if it spells likt this xD). Im so fan of em

[zero88777]

That intro is one of the creepiest riffs ever written

[psyckla5]

@zero88777 what about the fact that the guy on the cover has 3 arms and is meditating naked in a pool of blood?

[HoochE55]

just got my tickets for them and animals as leaders

[TokoBuds]

Meshuggah are the Fathers of progressive tech death

[666dchristians777]

@TokoBuds Uh, no. Death would be the "fathers of progressive tech death." Meshuggah is a totally different animal, brosky.

[xXEPICSXx92x]

@666dchristians777 Yeah Meshuggah are closer to jazz than death metal.

[markdeming1989]

why cant they play this live! just once at least

[Trag1cVision]

@markdeming1989

You really want that answering? lol

[hackshadows]

God, I could listen to that outro looped for infinity

[Xemozazk]

NEW ALBUM MARCH 27!!!!!!! YEA!

[holykimi]

if meshuggah was a game they would be DARK SOULS

[grievous56]

5:27 Best riff ever.

[CORNP00]

the way the guitar riffs have been composed for this song is fucking incredible

[sabbath13ful]

electric wizard n crowbar different genres but those r some of the heaviest riffs

[Emikropz]

I'm going to buy this album soon (:

[basstard013]

@Emikropz Best thing you'll ever do.

[Emikropz]

@basstard013 Aarh, maybe ;) But I got it in my hands right now :)

[metaldorksforever666]

This song isn't the kind of song you shut off half way through from being too long (and boring. It's the kind of song that's like a journey. The type of journey you want you go on over and over again.

[ZettaiThorn]

11 assholes are still dancing...

[gallespaul]

First time I listen to this song

When 0:48 came, a demon came out of my speakers and possessed me.

[5BadNinjas]

Really a damn dislike button on this song you have got to be kidding me!

[BaronGhede]

brilliant lyrics.

[0oLoneWolfo0]

The sweet strings vibrate immortality

Awakening in my brain originality

Melody reversing perception

Giving the chilling belief in superficiality

Pain seeping through the world

Destruction brought by humanity

Dying while advancing gadgetry

Being consumed by governmentality

Speaking the truth enigmatically

[trioxinforlunch]

@0oLoneWolfo0 masturbating verbally

[TheVlad9]

meshuggah will kill you

[Tool78Maynard]

4:56 the lyrics are wrong! Jens CLEARLY states "I shoot clay dolls!!" hahaha

[JonesROH]

core=suck meshuggah is not core.

[MiddleGrounder]

Sybreed is in the suggestions. They're not like Meshuggah, but they're still really fucking good.

Go have a listen.

[DavidAMIs]

This is my favorite on this album! Great groove. Love the vocals on it.

[theguest00]

great song. It's like robotic death metal

[shredjelly]

derp derp lol this r so satan liek you shuld belieb in a high power he iz called gawd and i warship him like everyon else cuz i am hivemended and i dun liek to be libertatered wai so many red lins in my tipe? I AM CHRISTAN THIS RED R SATAN LINEZ. BEGAWN SATAN

[mrmcsteezy]

@shredjelly .... lol wut?

[metaldorksforever666]

@shredjelly Obviously troll is obvious...

[MrGodkid]

Its interesting how professional metal bands become, as if its crucial that their individuality be crushed in order to produce the music... while beautiful, it serves as pause to wonder what a man gains crushing his soul for a moment's liberty in his music (the Devil at least retains his innocence, whatever he may entertain)

[metaldorksforever666]

@MrGodkid Satan doesn't exist anyhow. This band may be famous, they've refined to a different sound. I thought I would not though that they are still insanely talented and do not limit themselves.

[Meshuggaha]

I saw Tesseract last week opening for AAL and BTBAM and i'll tells ya they are no Meshuggah they want to be but... no go

[fr3sn0000]

no other band has heavier riffs than Meshuggah, trust me iv'e checked xP

[toastedgstring123]

So this is the most disturbing cd cover i've ever seen hahaha

[akudal964]

@toastedgstring123 his is meditating to Meshuggah (his masters) don't make him angry, he might come and kick your ass... fuck! that was lame

[Pager1991]

God 4:40 is so fucking brutal

[Onamorata]

The whole solo section from 5:57 - 7:30 is one of the greatest things I've ever heard.. That riff is absolutely insane.

[Onamorata]

Honestly, Tomas Haake said they probably would never play this live... THEY FUCKING SHOULD.

[8thstreetdropsoulja]

@Onamorata whyd he say that?

[Onamorata]

@8thstreetdropsoulja He mentioned "the spoken vocals." I guess "speaks" the vocals during the verses? Just fucking have Kidman do em.. Not that hard. Dammit. I love this song.

[MetalxXxMayhem]

Swallow the Sun and Opeth. Two great prog metal bands!! \m/!! Lovin the Meshuggah!!

[MetalxXxMayhem]

@MetalxXxMayhem Swallow the Sun is doomier tho. Great riffage tho. :D

[proggod876]

best song on the album

[Chwa982]

"We believe - so we're misled

We assume - so we're played

We confide - so we're deceived

We trust - so we're betrayed"

[dellaire11]

How I feel every day:

"We dance, to appease,

Compete in stupidity,

Obscured faces file our points,

Numbers fed to the machine,

Still we stand in line for the next show,

The human spine liquefied,

What are we, but stupefied, dancers to a discordant system."

[saganemc2]

@MrAnchell isn't it beautiful!

[saganemc2]

@metal882 Deride

[jsabbott0]

I've been trying to play this song on the piano and I keep injuring the crap out of my hand. Blood has been spilled.

[metal882]

If anybody wants to recommend any other great bands please let me know

[BlackHeartGraffiti]

@metal882 Vildhjarta

[MetallicOpeth]

@BlackHeartGraffiti there's a reason you got that many thumbs up, fuck yes

[yokiddingme]

@metal882 in a similar genre?

[metal882]

@yokiddingme Yeah

[Zyborggian]

@metal882 lol Meshuggah blows all those other bands out of the water IMO. but hey you're entitled to your opinion. If you like Hatebreed you should check out Kingdom of Sorrow.

[babykkkyle]

@metal882 well this is more on the technical side not the metal core or whatever the new metal stuff is called these days. Necrophagist, Decapitated, Death, Atheist(not the album elements), Decrepit Birth. Obscura to name a few.

@metal882 Tokio Hotel.

[ironwolg]

@metal882 well, there's always Dream Theater, Suspyre, Transatlantic, Andromeda, and i'm sure you'll find more from those bands. also, Living Sacrifice is a good Christian metal band, give em a try before you dismiss it as crap, those guys are actually really good at what they do

[Markuvalicious]

@ironwolg Ever head of Becoming the Archetype? They're a Christian death metal band. i don't think a band should be criticized by the message of their lyrics, BtA is a very talented band.

[ironwolg]

@Markuvalicious i've heard of tehm but never heard their music, i'll give it a listen. lyrics are a big part of the music :)

[Markuvalicious]

@ironwolg I recommend Ex Nihilo off their Terminate Damnation album. Really good song! :)

[iWentToNam]

@metal882 Periphery, tool, atomship

[BloodHarvest21]

@metal882 Periphery, animals as leaders, dream theater, opeth, mastodon, err umm, soundgarden stp, and of course, dragonforce.

[abrelosojo]

@metal882 Busted... oh and Jakub Żytecki is pretty good

[metal882]

I listen to alot of different bands but my Top 4 favorate bands are

1. Chimaira

2. Meshuggah

3. System Of A Down

4. Hatebreed

[Meshuggaaaahhhhh]

@metal882 Let me know if Meshuggah becomes number 1

[bom2]

I think I could loop the last minute of this song for the rest of my life.

[continuum288]

The lyrics to this song are true!

[grassieb]

Only Meshuggah can make something this groovy sound eerie.....this belongs in a 3-D shoot-em-up Doom-style game I think.....yeah that would keep me up for hours....

[Ilovelotro1]

great ! i was on concert in poland

[Ilovelotro1]

MESHUGGAAAH

!!!

[slipknot1566]

I love this song!!!!

it makes me go nuckin futs

[XPantera17X]

i looked down for like 5 minutes and the guy was WAYYYY closer than i remembered

[Metallaro66]

this song relaxes me

[limeman2]

5:27

8==D~~~~

[Bludhoundz8]

This is horrible. People keep recommending Meshuggah to me as a new metal band to listen to. So here I am, OBVIOUSLY not trolling. My honest opinion is that this is boring. Its slow, practically the same boring, bland, lazy riff over and over, and theres no emotion to this song whatsoever, just some boring guitar work and vocal work. Vocalist doesn't even know how to scream and is gonna screw his voice up. Drummer is the only one who seems to be having fun. Meh.

[dozicusmaximus]

@Bludhoundz8 He's been screaming like that for over 20yrs I think he'll be ok. Are you a Lamb of God fan? I'm not trying to start any shit, just trying to see where your coming from. Early Meshuggah is more thrashy. Check out Destroy Erase Improve. The first album I heard was Nothing and I thought it was great.

[Bludhoundz8]

@dozicusmaximus Sorry if I came off a bit harsh, was in a bad mood last night for other reasons. But I still do think this is kind of boring. Still listening to Meshuggah, maybe it'll grow on me. I listen to bands like Disturbed, Slipknot, Trivium, Atreyu, Children of Bodom, All That Remains, Divine Heresy, Nevermore, In Flames, etc, etc, you get the picture. Oh, and Metallica XD can't forget that.

I'll be sure to check that out now, thanks. The guitars are actually kind of growing on me...

[MrRandomNumbers]

@Bludhoundz8 i know what you mean, songs like this one you can't really groove to or anything. a lot of their songs are just boring, but there are some that are really "groovy", like rational gaze, obZen, spasm, Future breed machine, a few others that i'm forgetting also. even those sucked for a while until i got used to it.

[ninjagod1337]

@MrRandomNumbers False. This song is eminently groovy. The riff starting at 0:30 is the definition of groovy.

[blackshadowbass]

@ninjagod1337 I like the groovy riff at 4:40 too, I love groovy rhythms

[probassistNOT]

@Bludhoundz8 Lol,this song has like 10 or more different riffs. Get your info straight before commenting.

[ACowWithTetanus]

@Bludhoundz8 ok, this is an oldish comment, butttt

this song has tons of riffs. The vocalist has been in this band for nearly twenty years, he know what he's doing, it's just a different style. And how would you know if the drummer is the only one having fun? I know guitar players who are content with playing stuff that's like 3 notes.

[hurrikage09]

That guy on the album picture is like a mixture of MJK and The evil robots from I AM ROBOT.

[bigbadosker]

Best techno death thrash band in the world

[Fathardweed]

@bigbadosker Mathcore, you fucking dumb motherfucking cunt

[bigbadosker]

@Fathardweed I didn't know guys or little bitch girls in your case were such fucking pussies. It's cool. I'll just fuck your cunt mother in her mouth for you faggot. Is your sister or girlfriend available too u dumb booger eating hilljack?

[EternallyFalse]

@Fathardweed actually, this band goes from speed metal to prgressive death metal. any other website that tells you otherwise retarted

[Fathardweed]

@EternallyFalse Okay okay, YOU MOTHAFUCKIN' PUSSY COCK SUCKER :D <3

[ninermanic2011]

these guys are still many years ahead of anything else

[spartinja3]

lol just try masterbating with those hands....

[IJW85]

@spartinja3

I did. he wasn't pleased.

[VJelectro]

This is one of the most horrifying, skull-crushing, and purely evil pieces of music I have ever heard. You can't close off an album like obZen better than this song.

[bom2]

@VJelectro I absolutely agree. This is the best possible closer to quite possibly the best metal album I've ever heard. MESHUGGAH IS THE GREATEST.

[VJelectro]

@bom2 Hell yes. I can't honestly say what my favorite metal album of all time is, I'd fluctuate between too many bands (Mastodon, Tool, Meshuggah, Pantera, list goes on). BUT, this album is, without a doubt, one of the greatest metal albums every written, and one of the best of the past decade. It's Meshuggah in their prime. They've definitely made their masterpiece here.

[jsabbott0]

@VJelectro Yeah, this song is pure evil.
