Meshuggah - Mind's Mirrors / In Death Is Death

[InspirationalChange]

Just imagine standing in a room full with people. Suddenly this music starts playing and you just stand amazed when after the robotic talk. You just wonder what will happen next as all of a sudden in Death is Death kicks in... Damn... gotta go to a concert of them or I will have missed a great thing in life.

[ickerolig]

Sry, I did fast forward. But only past the protoss talking, just.. couldn't.... stand it.

[Willferox]

In Death Is Death is the most hectic awesome song on the planet

[75321596357895147]

awesome vid man!!! the combo is just MESHUGGAH!!

[kesild]

Melodic and Death core :D

[JesusStrikesBack1994]

@kesild No...not deathcore

[kesild]

@JesusStrikesBack1994 oh thanks buzzkill

[UBConquered]

so scary, yet so beautiful.......

[97warlock]

Wonder why they use Biblical style letters as theyre logo letters. Does it mean anything since its biblical style roman reference

[thedividedheir]

I love how Meshuggah is one intense rhythm exercise. They honestly can make workout videos with their rhythms, but for the guitar. Not a sweaty over weight woman or man high kicking in front of a T.V. wearing Richard Simmons spandex chanting weight loss rhetorics.

[BenjaminKuruga]

@thedividedheir GET IN THE GYM AND LEFT.

[BenjaminKuruga]

@BenjaminKuruga lol left ...

[stevepwn]

where the fuck can i download this ? fcuking sopa put down mediafire and rapidshare

[Darknessflare123]

You know, the...ambient noise behind the vocals reminds me of the chair-creaking intro to "Prison sex" By tool.

[mrsir512]

Big bang theory, is bullshit. God made everything including the very air u breathe. This musuc is badass but try not to let it influence u, such as choosing science over god N stuff.

[byfactorise]

@mrsir512 your idiocy proves there is no god.

[adipnz]

@mrsir512 HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAH FAGGOT

[wysle]

@mrsir512 hes mad bro

[krooddubstep]

@mrsir512 the best way would be a fusion of science and god, work together!

[Alan919]

A schizoreality warp

[Pager1991]

@tiranpzauras also stating that it stops time would mean it would preserve everything inside of it, but in reality a black hole engulfs matter and increases its own size. How would that relate to stopping time?

[Pager1991]

@tiranozauras you are implying that this universe is the only one if you think time never existed before the big bang. It is generally accepted that time has always been and always will be. None of us can say for certain though, but I have never heard that black holes stop time.

[EthensGleaton]

something makes me think the members of Meshuggah are freaking genius's...

[thegr8HarV]

such rythmicly satisfying music. @ 5:30 5/8 5/8 7/8 5/8 3/8 5/8 5/8 9/8 5/8 3/8:|

[Netravick]

SINGULARITY. i am KING spell lol

[vallsack]

The second half is actually "In Death is life"

[Pager1991]

@vallsack yea. this video is: Mind's Mirrors > In Death is Life > In Death is Death

[StaggnGuvnor]

What confusing is that this video is 9 mins long but he has linked in death is death to 13:22 :S

[ben2nd]

I JUST DERPED MYSELF!"!!!

[baconpoptarts]

Any man that says this is "cute" wants to taste his own anus via buttc0ck!!

[mrslolerface]

I've heard everything. But this is it. Yes!

[Arkezion]

Brutal.

[Marre96]

fakk jäah!!

[icupfreely23]

I now have a strange urge to do meth...

[BenjaminKuruga]

@icupfreely23 Go for it.

[cypheron0]

I was rocking my head sideways i wasnt doing it i was rocking it sideways im asleep hands arent typing nothings there nothing.

[LXXXXVI]

"Blablablablablabla blabla

blablabla...

...treacherous this deceit

to make no choice matter

to have and yet lose yourself

until finally all reasons why are forgotten

to live through ones own shadow

mute and blinded is to really see

eclipse the golden mirror..."

And my erection is set free :D

[Slofenwag0n]

@thecravenator42069 obviously



[Sotosyeah]

I would say this brings a sense of a near death experience. Some deep thinking with your inner self. It's like seeing your own self infront of you and doubting about your own existance. Wondering if death and life do really exist. Finding out that there is something behind your human body

[cjstorey6]

@Sotosyeah With the help of inner/outer hatred, self-destructive behaviors, intrigue in spirituality, and consistent use of deleriant and disassociative drugs, I start to question conciousness itself. I've gone further, however, the road leading to just that...is fuckin' brutal

[sauron610]

8:48 ARRRRRGGHHHHH FUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCKKKKKK

I just kicked a big ass hole in my wall

Courtesy of Meshuggah

[ermalkoci]

What the fuck is he talking about?????

[saganemc2]

I know and love this song as well as any I've ever(considerable), I know every step but couldn't tell you how. The sway averts so naturally to me. Most people think themselves "musical" or "music person". I am a musician and one thing I've seen is that REAL MUSICIANS all appreciate their work!!

[puppetmaster532]

@thecravenator42069 lol no its F#

[probassistNOT]

@puppetmaster532 It's dropped F.

[Troubledove]

I dont understand it. (Honesty defined.)

[BenjaminKuruga]

@vicariousfellow You started off the same as me sort of. (not was I was expecting) like I listened to Bleed first, and came from a Gojira song. I didn't like Bleed, thought it was lame, still do. IMO Bleed is Meshuggah's worst song, (Still one of the best Metal songs ever) just Meshuggahs worst. Catch 33 FTW :3

[marblizedfish]

fucking the gods of metal....... period......

[Rikiunne]

@vicariousfellow This isn't fucking auto-tune. This is a vocoder. There's a fucking difference.

[Eddyles]

Out of all the metal bands today, Meshuggah never cease to amaze and inspire me. They've got the balls to go against what everyone else is doing, including most "death metal bands" of these days. I have a varied music style, from trance, classic rock, metal to even some jazz fusion. I'm proud to say that Meshuggah takes up a large portion of the memory on my ipod.

[Nike2901]

@Eddyles This song is so epic, so is every other song written, performed, produced, not-produced, evrything about them is just wow. Meshuggah have and will always be kings of djent.

[JesusStrikesBack1994]

@Eddyles Damn fucking straight man.

[MrTex1987]

Im laying this way too loud

[DeathofmeIknow]

Discovered this band when I was 12 scared the piss out of me....

[mikogigantas]

@DeathofmeIknow i am 13 and i listen black metal

[QINDYNASTY]

@mikogigantas Great to see that pop music hasnt indoctrinated all of our young folk

[KainVKail]

@QINDYNASTY not at all. and even better i can listen to music like Christina Aguilera and this directly after. and enjoy both.

[QINDYNASTY]

@KainVKail I agree that it is good to listen to multiple genres of music, but it is always great to see that young people are listening to intellectualy stimulating music like Meshuggah

[mee11mee]

@mikogigantas cute

[Netravick]

@DeathofmeIknow and you're still twelve years of age because like a black hole, the math in their music stops time.

[Pager1991]

@Netravick black holes don't stop time you derp

[Netravick]

@Pager1991 In a way they do. If you were to approach it the gravity is so strong it slows the object down to almost a complete stop...from the outside perspective if we were watching it.

[Pager1991]

@Netravick no it does not slow down the object, it sucks the object in. a black hole is a 3-dimension hole in the fabric of space and time, the black hole has super gravity and therefore it sucks in the object and stretches it out until it is a stream of atoms entering the hole itself. the hole is very tiny and therefore it squeezes whatever matter it takes in and compacts them, and the most efficient way of doing so is to break it down into singular atoms.

[Netravick]

@Pager1991 Time can't exist without movement and movement requires space, because it is so dense beyond the event horizon of a black hole no space exists between the particles crushed together in there, no movement is possible, no movement, no time.

[Netravick]

@Pager1991 If you would care to learn more, watch How the Universe works- Black Holes. It explains enough. Atoms cant even exist. If the tidal force is small we get ripped apart. If its large we slowly drift into the black hole until we cross the Event Horizon. After that the Sincularity. Thats where time and everything else breaks down.

[Pager1991]

@Netravick i've watched many videos about astophysics. i don't agree that time can't exist without movement, that is a theory, as things become less complex yes they will compress such as when entering a black hole, but i don't think that time essentially stops when inside a black hole and i've never heard a physicist say this is true. you're telling me that time can stop in one area of space-time and continue in another?

[Netravick]

@Pager1991 Isnt this a great song?!?! LOL sorry we got off topic. not the right video for it.  I RESPECT your opinion on THEORETICAL physics too lol. Enjoy the music.

[Tiranozauras]

@Pager1991 Gravity affects time, so such things like black holes affect time significantly, check "time dilation".

[Pager1991]

@Tiranozauras Black holes in no way shape or form "stop time", there is nothing that we know if that has the ability to "stop time" as time is believed to have "always been and always will"

I believe the top theories with black holes involve exits through white holes. Black holes are holes in the fabric of space-time and I have no idea how that can be seen as "stopping time"

[Tiranozauras]

@Pager1991 Well, there arent any evidence to either say they would or wouldn't stop time, for the object "falling" into it, but you shouldn't think of time as something that always was there and always existed. As far as we can tell, time is just another property of our universe, and if it indeed was born with big bang, prior to that neither time nor space didnt exist. Of course this concept is difficult to grasp, because we as humans are really limited by reality we live in.

[Tiranozauras]

@Pager1991 And white holes are just theory atm, it's just some5thing that come out of theory of relativity, while there are fairly strong evidence that black holes exist, no one has ever seen or detected white hole in any way. And I really dont think black holes are any kind of "portal" as you would suggest, they are just bodies with incredible density and mass which provide them with extreme gravity, which affects spacetime significantly.

[blrsycth]

this song is a brilliant masterpiece, i need some q tips cuz i got a eargasm XD

[GojiraNoKyokai]

imo, this reminds me of fractal patterns, just like the snakes, which can be seen as a representation of the minds unconscious aspect, its like pure motive driven by instinct witout a consciously comprehensable meaning, anyways im excited for their new album!!!!

[epicKiipa]

Omfg, I jizzed at teh bass/guitar in the beginng O_O

[baconpoptarts]

At first I just didn't get it, and didn't like it.........I was wrong.... I was wrong!! other worldly these boys are. My personal view is this the soundtrack of a extremely mentally ill person stumbling upon something NO man should, let alone a mentally ill one.

[guitarszzz]

lol, mind mother fucking fuck.

[RegentDorn]

i absolutely love the groovy riff at the beginning of in death is life

[CoheedFreak06]

There are no suggestions in the sidebar. Even You-tube understands meshuggahs Godlike originality,

[Megadedly]

@CoheedFreak06 There are actually.

[mannersification]

watch this alone in the night and the intro will scare the shit outta u!!!

[TheGreyMan93]

The opening riff of In Death Is Life makes me jizz uncontrollably!

[robert1268]

The person formerly known as me.

[TheHeartogram]

that noise at the begining is amazing ugly :)

meshuggah is the best

[AngstRiddenDreams]

I swear everytime i watch a Meshuggah video there is some sort of argument centered around the user "Dujl"

Do you seriously not have anything to better to do? Or are you trying to set a bunch of idiots straight? I really haven't read into it to see who is the actual culprit. Is he the troll?

[dujl]

@AngstRiddenDreams Lol. Thanks for taking the time to write to me, sweetheart. I truly appreciate it. :)

[AngstRiddenDreams]

@dujl I am very sorry dude! I wrote this when i thought you were a troll, trolls really bug me. But i have been informed otherwise! I am really sorry! Thank you for not getting mad.

[dujl]

@AngstRiddenDreams Question: Why would I be trolling? Also, what is the negativa effect of me trolling in this scenario?

[AngstRiddenDreams]

@dujl I'm not entirely sure, i have actually seen rants on other videos about you being a "troll". But those people are just dumbasses.

Negative effect of trolling is instead of reading funny comments or interesting ones about the music it's just a huge argument between a bunch of twelve year olds. lol

I'll think twice before making an ass out of myself again, sorry Dujl.

[dujl]

@AngstRiddenDreams Well true dat, but I can't really be held responsible for the enjoyment of others. Still, I agree that the conversation was way drawn out and futile ultimately.

[BCRichJunky777]

meshuggah is badass BUT  this autotune vocals make me sick :(

[supah1337B]

@BCRichJunky777 Autotune vocals? what song are you listening to?

[simulclass83]

@BCRichJunky777 It's not autotune, it's a vocoder. I doubt Meshuggah would ever use autotune.

[BCRichJunky777]

@simulclass83 yeah sorry about that. I guess autotune was the completely wrong word I just didn't know that the effect is called ,,vocoder,, thx for letting me know :)

[simulclass83]

@BCRichJunky777 Yeah no problem man, cheers.

[SKINHEADx4xLIFE]

this is some crazy shit--crazier than dimmu borgir

[icumsludge]

@SKINHEADx4xLIFE Dimmu can't tread water against Meshuggah. They're not even in the same Universe.

[supah1337B]

@icumsludge For Minds mirrors ....My speakers can't do justice

[icumsludge]

@supah1337B They should put this in a live action gundam movie

[DrRocksosBitch]

ends at the best of the song..you my friend are a jew for uploading this

[Caiosama205]

2:53 and 4:53 = King Crimson moments?



[titusbeertsen]

At 6:31 there seems to be a little noise, some error in the recording process? It's the same on my CD.

[MrSlaytanic1]

Meshuggau is by far one the best metal bands out there.

[supah1337B]

@MrSlaytanic1 Apparently the only people who get heavier than Meshuggah ...is Meshuggah

[lucariololol]

this is a concept album about how death is paradoxical and impossible. i understood it once and every thing made sense but then i forgot it

[dujl]

@lucariololol I think I can kinda dig what you mean. :P I had a revelation with this album, but like you say, it's easy to forget.

[Tolkienartist]

@lucariololol Is that your own revelation or do you have a source?

[dankcharlie666]

@lucariololol its the catch 33. ha get it?

[axisdrummer24]

@dankcharlie666 the actual phrase is catch 22

[dankcharlie666]

@axisdrummer24 i know the phrase is catch 22, however if you look in the info it says "Third segment of Catch 33" by meshuggah. you obviously didnt get it

[ShapeshifterMusic]

@axisdrummer24 A catch 22 is something you can never figure out, kind of, or whatever, which is what the name Catch 33 is, it's a catch 22, a paradox.

[CaptianCalvin]

@lucariololol It's about how I completely invested myself in something totally outside my control, and although I care for it deeply it will never be mine. It's the sense of being totally deceived in your whole reality, and painful dissolution. It is the call on every human which will wipe away their existence, and history into nothingness. It's a Painful howl when overwhelmed by betrayal complete. A primal leveling with all possibilities for consideration in the face of agony. death in life.

[22fret]

Wow, philosophy and Meshuggah walk hand in hand. Who would have thought of something like that...?

[jsabbott0]

If you listen to the recurring noodling guitar motif in the background, you'll notice that for MOST of the album, the notes are "G...F...F#...", repeat. The first 2 notes resolve to the 3rd. My way of seeing this is that each one of those notes represents 1/3 of a paradox, and the constant, unending struggle to make sense of the world's contradictions. But in THIS song, the pattern is just "G...!!F#!!..." I think this represents the finality of death. No paradox, no struggle, just... resolution.

[ShreddingDragon]

@jsabbott0 Pretty nice observation! I always paid attention to the three note motif, but never realized that the motif turning into only two notes could have a special meaning. Of course it has...on an album like this, everything has a reason.

[jsabbott0]

@ShreddingDragon Yup, changed the way I look at this whole album. Also worth noting is that I think I was a half-step too high - pretty sure the notes are "F#-E-F". Finally, I went back and listened to the whole album for more clues on the motif, and it's not just "IDID" that changes it up. On "Sum" the motif is just the first note (probably relates to the previous track's "one syllable, one vowel" bit)

[2bored4school]

@jsabbott0 I truely admire that you can envision such depth in sound, I can't yet :(

[OctopusGuy2]

Tomas Haake is a bloody genius.

[MetalOfAllOwns]

@rockin4lyfe420 I dont think it was acid they were tripping out on.. im pretty sure they were tripping on Meshuggah...

[rockin4lyfe420]

wow. i'd say R4vetastic and dujl were tripping on acid while having their little conversation. and one or the other or both were definitely over thinking things.

[sauron610]

Between all 11 dimensions, we are nothing more than autonomous organic programs, encoded only to consume and expand until we suffocate this desolate rock. Nothing more than sentient viruses.

[anwakeling]

This album is the musical equivalent of a panzer tank becoming self aware, realizing what an abomination it is and questioning it's existence and then in a merciless rage, murdering everything it can see before taking it's own life.

[signorellil]

@anwakeling Actually you may have a point here, as for some reason this has - funnily - always reminded me of the dialogue between the astronaut and the sentient/self aware thermonuclear device in John Carpenter's early movie's "Dark Star" (check it out on YT)

[anwakeling]

@signorellil I've actually seen that movie, and that fits quite well with this song, especially with the vocoder, the slower tempo and the eeriness of it. The rest of the album is really mechanical, which is why I said panzer tank. That 4/4 that the drummer plays around is like the ticking hand on the god-wheel of time.

[signorellil]

@anwakeling I've realized there's another piece of art from the past that somehow relates with this section of C33 - Emerson, Lake & Palmer "Tarkus", particularly the "Eruption" segment. Try looking out for it on YT, you may be surprised.

[toofattocare77]

@anwakeling what the fuck lol

[DreamPurpleFloyd]

Oh my.... a 30 pages argument... everything around meshuggah is definitely frightening.

[scratchneck]

this shit sucks.... u ppl gotta learn to listen to real music like, for instance, Rihanna and Katy Perry, they're a couple of good examples of real quality music

[supah1337B]

@scratchneck Thanks for the tips, Ill get right on it!

[Beelzebro]

I think the first 30 seconds is them trying out their low ass tuning on a 6 string, lol.

[supah1337B]

@Beelzebro ...6 string? What kind of pussies do you think Meshuggah are? This is some Bass/7-8string shit here man.

[Bardok513]

@supah1337B Dude's saying that the first 30 seconds of the song sound as if they were trying to play their songs as low as normally on a 6 string, which would make the strings really loose and floppy and gross.

[supah1337B]

@Bardok513 I know, and besides, sounds more like that was the point of that part. This album if listened to all the way through is more terrifying then all the horror movies ever made put together.

[AlteredVisionz]

wow, cynic is influencing everyone. The faceless did an intro like this too. Meshuggah needs to be a bit more original.

[ironcladgungrave]

@AlteredVisionz what song from the faceless(witch is one of my fav tech death metal bands)

[AlteredVisionz]

@ironcladgungrave akeldama. One of my favorites by the faceless too.

[dujl]

@AlteredVisionz Funny, because it's untrue.

[AngstRiddenDreams]

@dujl Ah so you're the troll who is probably some pissed off fat teen who lives in his dark basement that is such a "bad ass" because he talks shit on Youtube. ATTENTION TO ALL: Dujl here is just mad because no girl will ever get with him and his dick is too small for him to even pleasure himself.

We might just feel sorry for you if you weren't such a faggot fucking troll.

[supah1337B]

@AngstRiddenDreams Naw he just uploads Meshuggah songs

[scoar1]

if u scroll down u will see three idiots arguing.

[dujl]

Yes, I think our so-called argument started 33 pages ago.

How very coincidental, considering the album we are listening to.

[NitroAndDeathMetal]

THIS SONG, Just flipped me over on my computer desk, AND RAPED ME.

[R4vetastic]

It's a tarp

[Dethwalka]

this is fuckin scary lol

[Tool78Maynard]

Two so-called men fighting for a solid week over petty nonsense. Listen to the damn music!!!!

Befriend eachother on facebook if you two wanna have a long drawnout conversation on who has the bigger dick.

People appreciate informative comments referring to the music..not about who's EGO is bigger. Grow the fuck up

[penam7300]

Like this if u find it funny how the two dudes below have been argueing all the way...-.-"

[Mazter0fMuppetz]

@penam7300 what the hell!! you should be able to ban people from the comment section -.-

[ChrisEpperson90]

why argue? it brings about no change, people are stuck with their opinions.. it takes changes in their life experience to alter their way of thinking. it's called personal growth and maturity. petty squabbling over youtube only feeds negative emotions to each other and the only thing that is accomplished is personal destruction. acceptance and understanding, yo

[DarkCrusade3]

Goddamnit can't you kids shut the fuck up and just ignore the trolls? You feed them, and they enjoy it, and they grow. They'll grow until the internet and your mum crush and burst into peaces of pain and futile agony. Stop this war or we'll see a lot more futile discussions spamming all popular videos on YT.

But to all of you: I don't enjoy this track myself, but I have the respect not to voice my opinion in an offensive way. Just get the fuck over it and keep it back.

[gringuish12]

And that is, gentlemen, what I love about Meshuggah. Just look at the comments, this music makes you think and doubt about everything standing or flooding in the cosmos. I think that's one of the objectives of the band

[R4vetastic]

@gringuish12 Indeed, Meshuggah is probably the most unique band I've ever heard. 

[13fridayguz]

In reality, there is no such thing as reality.

[miestarSqils]

@13fridayguz There is but it morphs so fast any statement of what reality is becomes immediately obsolite

[dujl]

@13fridayguz How do you know?

[Wheelah23]

7:46

MY THOUGHTS A RADIANT BEACON

TO THE OMNI-DIRECTIONAL HUNTER

[nmh2112]

R4vestastic and dujl you guys just need to fuck and get it over with. you're building up all this sexual tension, just release it. you'll both feel much better, and we can listen to the music without hearing you pussies argue.

[R4vetastic]

@nmh2112 I totally agree.

[Steveskies]

To dearest R4vetastic and dujl: if I were in a room with Hitler, Bin Laden and you two and I only had two bullets, I'd shoot you both and give Hitler and Bin Laden some Meshuggah to listen to. Get the fuck off my internet.

[perrottafamily1]

@Steveskies Lol

[dujl]

@Steveskies Don't tempt fate. Bring it on, bitch.

[supah1337B]

@dujl Dujl, your angering the Meshuggah

[supah1337B]

@Steveskies Not your internet, its Meshuggah's and Justi- and gaga *Pukes a bit* are currently getting 300 style fucked over and out of this bandwidth.

[stewy1897]

@Steveskies Very wierd that now bin laden is dead
