"While we all have lots of bands to be influenced still we all rip off Meshugah!" (Devin Townsend)

[SummoningACryptid]

1:34-2:03 I am learning how to sing this 

[UBConquered]

Jens looks like he wants to kill people

[disasterspecies]

STAYYYY BLIIIIND!!!!!

[mouthlicking]

[nafsiammara]

They wern't happy with this clip but I reckon it's killer.

[abstractpercussion]

Meshuggah pisses me off because I can never nail the drum patterns x.x

lulz but they're fuckin' great

[riceball242]

@subhumanmaster People who cannot respect the talent of both Meshuggah AND Pantera shouldn't be allowed to comment.

[musicman9901]

who is drumming in this video? I thought haake was in the band for the entire career of meshuggah and I cant imagine haake with short hair.

[junkyardw]

@musicman9901 back then jens had long hair and tomas didnt

[probassistNOT]

@musicman9901 Hahaha,back to the times when Haake looked like a normal person...now he looks like a mage or something lol

[samohtnoryb]

Not a lot of people realise this band have changed everything in metal

[continuum288]

@samohtnoryb Definitely!

[Mitsyrules]

prob their best song

[ItWasWrittenInBlo0d]

beyond evil, Meshuggah crawled out of hell 7 string guitar in hand

[MASSRCOR]

I'm obsessed with this band as of late

[MickeyLWalker]

devoid of own self made thoughts

[TheIronParasite]

i was 4 when this came out.... i am now 20!.......... where have they been my whole life?

[BigBeefSicenunow]

@TheIronParasite,you missed allt he action,no worries,justin bieber is around,HAHAHAAAAAHHAHAHAHAAHA

[TheIronParasite]

@BigBeefSicenunow FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCK­KKK!!!!!

[Destrodooomocculta]

vintage meshuggah, i wish they would have retained more of their thrash influence in the recent years. really took a lot out of my liking for them. now they just crush. back then they used to crush and roll you the fuck over. devastating power they had.

[xVictimOfADownx1]

@Destrodooomocculta meh i disagree the more they strayed from thrash metal the more i enjoyed them, to each their own i suppose

[continuum288]

@xVictimOfADownx1 Yeah, i definitely enjoyed their tech thrash approach!

[Avoryne]

Shit, Jens looks intense.

[Squilliam2]

:41 is my favorite riff on this whole cd!! shits so fuckin raw

[maxxo1o]

STAY BLIND!!! Love this band!!!

[minimalizam006]

@maxxo1o don't STAY BLIND! ....... STARE BLIND :P

[worthykev]

@maxxo1o STARE blind.

[Megadedly]

Too many damn noobs commenting on this video.

[MrGumCuz]

Don't compare. It's either bad-fucking-ass or it ain't. That's like: diarrhea>constipation. Both are the shit!

[voldo1345]

incredible song

[ozenalol]

Wow, comparing Meshuggah with Pantera, you all should be ashamed. That's like comparing Pizza vs. Hamburgers, they both own.

[MrGumCuz]

@ozenalol what kind of pizza?

[MrSeemby]

@MrGumCuz Hamburger Pizza

[Meshuggahnize]

PURE DEVASTATION

[MajkeTiTvoje]

Jens has rabies lol

[gasa861]

ja mislim da nema bolje od ovo

[MetalHeadEmperor]

@subhumanmaster true, but pantera is an amazing band :)

[ryanexsus]

Comparing bands is for douchebags.

[continuum288]

@ryanexsus Yes!

\

[007Pogo]

Hahaha, no offense but these guys are better than pantera since contradictions collapse, pantera is a great band.

[evilchimpmunk566]

tomas with short hair :O

[RandomJam666]

@subhumanmaster Pantera<Lamb Of God

[Atonil]

0:43 \m/

[fullmetalmc]

excellent music

[NatteGuilty]

@subhumanmaster Agreed. 10000000 timez.xD

[mvunit3]

WTF??? I had no idea they had a Vid for this!!!! And I had this album since it debuted! wow, I guess I was super busy in 1994 :P

[fatalgrace79]

@mvunit3 you probably were...i rememer seeing this vid on headbangers ball back in 94. they used to play it quite often on that show. ahh the good old days.

[Progulus4]

@fatalgrace79 - hehe, moved to San Diego County and my 1st Video Game Co. Job as a Conceptual Artist-I guess I was immersed into my assignments and busy buying as many obscure CD's I could get my hands on :D Weird to see Tomas Haak with a buzz cut here too XD -mvunit3

[KimberleyBianca]

I like that no one has disliked this yet ;)

[Atern0x]

@KimberleyBianca

Me too, people seem to have a good aim at the like-button... unlike at other vids^^

[Morgoth51]

@subhumanmaster

Hum no. Both are awesome in their one way. Period.

[Morgoth51]

@Morgoth51

My bad, own way, not "one".

[danielsilv2]

this song f,ing owns!!!!!!

[InfiniteDesign91]

how come 21019 views???

IT Should be much more, don't understand....

even I had to search and on the 4th page there comes the old clips.

Amazing song, amazing video, reminds me of my childhood, when metal was on the TV after midnight

Also like the old hairstyles of meshuggah

[mouthlicking]

How ahead of there time were they. Other bands are only starting to catch up now.

[CatchNothing1]

It's funny to see Tomas playing a pearl set with zildjan cymbols. Just not used to it. Love this song DEI

[Hertsman50]

Most original metal band I've ever heard. Love that guitar sound, such energy. Yeah I agree the guitarist does have an Alan Holdsworth sound but there is where the similarity ends.

[15fuchs]

lmao at jens' hair. and tomas looks about 30 years younger with short hair.

[Zeta9966]

@15fuchs Um yea, this was nearly 20 years ago.... so that's probably why he looks much younger LOL

[mor3evrfld]

1:30 TO 2:16 = BEST RYTHM SECTION EVER

[AChozenSunn]

@subhumanmaster kinda talkin about 2 very different things there

[fatalgrace79]

@047912 Yes they do...and I have the playlist from when they played my hometown. Damn...it was awesome. I remember this vid/song from back in the early 90's before everyone jumped on the Meshuggah band wagon.

[taikogroove]

His solos sound like Allan holdsworth solos. Maybe just the same effect...

[Thorngoth]

@taikogroove

I went to see Allan Holdsworth yesterday at Ronnie Scotts in London. I couldnt believe when I saw your comment here as thats exactly what I thought yesterday. Soli like Meshuggah!

[taikogroove]

@Thorngoth That would have been cool. Was it cool?

[msw0322]

Damn I didn't realize they had a video for this song, I almost forgot Jens had a skullet back then.

[thesliffinator]

greatest fucking metal band ever. besides dillinger escape plan... they're about tied. but seriously, meshuggah is insane.

[farfanatico]

WTF! very very very sick!!! I LIKE IT!!!!!

[gingersnap515]

:10 FUCK

[cliffburtonlives]

I shat myself

[JohannesDonati]

Short-hair HAAKE D:!!

Gotta love those Syncopated16th's! |,,|.

[Smaugren]

Oceans of sewage continual

Washing into our minds

Drowning in wasted integrity

With eyes too open to see...vanity!

[darkmichelle16]

ese wey se ve con los ojos muy locos

[Colubedy]

Never saw this one before.

[Desterimos]

oh god...

\m/

[ryanexsus]

This band fucking owns and has for a long time now.

[fatalgrace79]

@ryanexsus

holy crap i meant to plus 1 you. I agree. Meshuggah is a bad ass band. if anyone hasn't had the chance to see them live, make the effort. it's worth the while.

[I3lackArrow]

I've seen them live now 4 times :) I have been next to the stage on 3 of those

[straightedgesxe666]

lo mejor meshuggah

[Marinkorpse]

It's fun to see how even the old bands are ripping of Meshuggah nowadays. This guys kick ass

[Smaugren]

How can you not bang your head to this?

[Sandemose]

Just bang it ffs!

[KeithWhalen11]

My favorite Meshuggah track, 0:42 is just pure madness!

[BigBozSicenunow]

Top fucking song!!!!!!!!!!!

[subhumanmaster]

what's wrong with a good death growl?

[subhumanmaster]

this band is the future of metal

[Jakster840]

@subhumanmaster its better than alot of the shit coming out today. Although i am VERY impressed with many of the modern thrash acts and death metal acts.

[jsera7573]

@subhumanmaster they WHERE the future of metal. they gave birth to soooo many amazing metal bands, like periphery, parkway drive, the contortionist, etc.

[strobuz]

\m/ Meshuggah \m/

[vonzippa12]

is this real?

[funknotik]

I ask myself all the time...

[grogmaninteractive]

1:35 is amazing

They're so fucking brutal, and all without singing like a farting ass. I love this band!

[fernanties]

Bring back the Skullet!!!!!! Let's start a petiton, if that is spelled correctly?

[TheSymmachus]

Interesting song; I enjoy the band MEshuggah. I own their EP I and their debut full-length Contradictions Collapse. That is the first time I've seen Thomas Haake with short hair, by the way. It's also the second time I've seen Jens Kidman with that skullet (with all due respect, I'm glad he's got that shaved off).

[kalldin]

psykisk testbild!

[TheSymmachus]

Yeah, that's the only Meshuggah recording that Thomas Haake wasn't doing drums for. Niclas Lundgren did them instead.

[Meshuggah980]

Tomas is the best!!

[pepekong]

Tomas with short hair!

[strannger]

STAAAAAAARE BLIIIIIIIIIIND!

this is one of my fav tracks from Meshuggah, i wish they'd play it nowadays.

[GadKing]

Ok guys, just tell me if I'm crazy. The first 16 seconds remind me the battle against Bowser in Super Mario World on the SNES. I mean, really

[perdedoronline]

LULZ! You're funny!

[patatra]

the ending is Great !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[047912]

Feel The POWER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!

[MethCircuS]

@047912 power felt indeed brother

[chawoosemothergoose]

these guys were so ahead of their time

[Thetruthinall]

I remember watching this video on Loud about 10 years ago and hating it... Now its usually the song i test any heavy tones to... just gotta love this song!

[behindthen0thing]

DEI = masterpiece

[XCrusherX1]

One of the very, very few bands that give me the urge to turn the volume up as high as possible. Especially this song.

Therefore: STAAAARE BLIIIIIIND!

[Mahavishnu80]

I thought the lyrics were notes below the STAAAAVE LIIINNNNE

[behindthen0thing]

its stare blind

[Mahavishnu80]

should be stave line

[behindthen0thing]

ok but wtf would stave line mean hahahaaaaaaaaaa

[Mahavishnu80]

notes below the musical STAAAAAAAAAAAVEEEEEEEEEEEE LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNN­NNNNNEEEEEEEEEE

[Ajfrost14]

this makes me wont to puke in my mouth. AAAHHHHHHGGGGGGGG ERRRRRRRRRRRRRRERRRRRRRRRRRR..

[strannger]

fuck, do they play these old songs live nowadays? i'd love to hear this, or vanished, or maybe Sublevels:)

[meshuggahfan]

blah holy shit, thanks for posting this, haven't seen this video in like 10 years!!!!

[Zeta9966]

part at :50 is the best part of the song imo

[Sicenunow]

The whole song RULZ dude.

[p3945u5]

Everybody listening to this in '94 '95 really scratched their heads why this band wasn't popular yet. When I bought DEI in '95, it literally blew my mind, after that metal wasn't metal anymore.

[replica07]

this song is about tv lol seriously read the lyrics. youve probably all guessed that anywayz. but yeah its about tv. think of it...there are ppl that choose tv to tell them how to cook or sumthin instead of buying a cook book and reading the information lol. but its like theyre obssessed with it. but there aremother things like how it lowers IQ n kills brain cells, from radiation. you also dont see the time fly when watching tv. THEYRE ALL BLEEDING FOR THE "ENTITY OF WAVELENGTHS!" lol

[thehollow333]

that is your opinion. let ppl decide for them selves. if jens is like me, i will let everyone decide for themselves what they read into the lyrics.

[replica07]

umm jens doesn't write the lyrics...tomas does.

[Zeta9966]

uh.... you're obviously misinformed. While Haake tends to write the majority of the more recent lyrics, Fredrik and Jens wrote alot on this record and a few other albums.... Tomas took over when they went all progressive.

[replica07]

what do the lyrics mean to you? i mean to me its quite obvious...even the video kinda tells ya its about the effects of TV lol theres static which looks like someone is changing channels, or "selecting illusions". you get wavelengths from tv or what they use in the song "devine screens, radiate us now, your blessing..." but fair enuff you can relate it to whatever ya feel like, im not stopping you lol i just like to find the real meaning to their lyrics, cuz tomas haake is very good lyricist.

[Benjemima2220]

i think the song is about butt sex

[NecroButcher91]

Yeah, its about T.V. I love the part where he says "Oceans of sewage continually pushing into our minds", and its even more true now than it was in '95 when they wrote this, because t.v. is even purer filth now.

[replica07]

yea the metaphors that Tomas can come off with are fuckin immense. yea it would be more true now, than it wouldve been back in 95. so i agree. but yea at least someone agrees with me and can read between the lines. cheers! lol

[TheTownOfKickapoo]

man that solo at 1:36 is hectic >_>

doop....bee...dooop

dooo, do , do

its like a retarded 6 year old playing a keyboard XD

[rockrenegade]

Jens rocked a badass skullet.

[tehriverdragon7129]

Haake used to have short hair?

[Zeta9966]

yea and Jens had long hair and played guitar too :D

[ribs22]

would love to see this song live on day

[snigelsnor]

This song deserves a better video. x(

[54NT14G0]

that solo is disturbing

[1xxchopper]

Meshuggah fuckin go off

[123shawnt]

So true, it's almost funny how heavy this band is.
