Meshuggah - Nebulous (Re-Issue)

[jumatm]

i've seen some guys arguing about the grooviest riff from meshuggah, i think every song is sick... every single one... is pure groove

[uberepicdeathkill]

The beauty of something like this goes over way too many people's heads

[dujl]

@uberepicdeathkill Agreed. It's a sad thing.

[dujl]

@uberepicdeathkill Agreed. It's a sad thing.

[icupfreely23]

This song alone makes me want kick shit the fuck over and mosh reallllly hard

[MetallicOpeth]

sooooo much groove

[jaretthale78]

I FUCK TRANNYS TO THIS SHIT?!!?!

[lemmonlime0]

Instrumentally this is one of the coolest sounding fucking bands ever. The singing is awesome too, but fuck. The heaviness of the instruments alone is just amazing.

[proggod876]

i listen to this song everytime when i feel like a boss!!!!

[1998Chaosphere]

heavy fucking song

[stonehenge55]

one of the best Meshuggah songs. I love this re-issued version slower and heavier with those 8 strings going. Need more of this shit in future! Same thing with the re-issue of D.E.I.

[alexsvartengel]

this song is so fucking meshuggah

[NoaOno]

This version is different and cool.

[MasterDonut]

To me, this track is a pretty good example of what Meshuggah is all about.

[ErraticReviews]

@MasterDonut Pretty good example? I'd say THE example.

[MasterDonut]

@ErraticReviews Just checked your channel and had a listen to Tony Danza Tapdance Extravaganza, never heard of them before! Honestly, they literary just blew my mind away! :) Great stuff!

[ErraticReviews]

@MasterDonut The song wasn't on youtube, so I figured I'd upload it. Glad you enjoyed. :)

[xBLooDLiNEx808x]

So Heavy!

[LWRCftw]

breakdown @ 2:09 tears every single other breakdown in history a new one.

[neilorourke71]

@LWRCftw its a toss up between this and the breakdown in lethargica

[BenjaminKuruga]

@neilorourke71 Dehumanization was the best and greatest ever ness

[p2psux5]

@BenjaminKuruga So I've heard. In three different comments on this video, all from you.

[BenjaminKuruga]

@p2psux5 I think that was an accident, but still the truth.

[p2psux5]

@BenjaminKuruga personally i like entrapment most on the album, and in death is death

[BenjaminKuruga]

@p2psux5 Cool. In death is death was a scary song ^-^

[AlexXxtestify]

@BenjaminKuruga i think shed is a really cool expiremental song. that whole album is a total mindfuck

[CoolCoverBro]

@LWRCftw except for the breakdown in catch thirty three right after the soundtrack to my failure part. I still believe that might be the world's best breakdown in sense of utter heaviness.

[BenjaminKuruga]

@CoolCoverBro Dehumanization has the heaviest breakdown in existance.

[BenjaminKuruga]

Dehumanization has the heaviest breakdown in existance.

[AlexXxtestify]

@BenjaminKuruga also the breakdown in lethargica is downright fucking awesome

[BenjaminKuruga]

@AlexXxtestify Dehumanization had the heaviest most groovy breakdown of all though ^-^

[xNewAeonx]

The outro starting at 4:38 has got to be some of the best riffage Ive ever feasted my ears upon. Can never get tired of these guys.. EVER

[TheRobb573]

@xNewAeonx I know, right? Meshuggah's an addiction for which the only cure is More Meshuggah. If I could die, I would die happy. Too bad Meshuggah causes permanent life, in which the polar opposite is Chuck Norris..

[TheRobb573]

@xNewAeonx same outro you mentioned reminds me of Catch Thirty Three.

[Meshuggaaaahhhhh]

The Reality of the Dream

[BenjaminKuruga]

@Fleshphantom Could just call Meshuggah ...Metal ...or just Meshuggah

[TheRobb573]

@BenjaminKuruga I already do. ^.^ I really do.

[FailBlob]

This song is the sound satan makes when he masturbates

[Demanufactur3]

I believe the official name of the genre meshuggah is in is Technical Death Metal. But to be blatently honest, who could truly put a genre on Meshuggah. It's the most strange yet most brutal band i know of.

\m/ Meshuggah \m/

[mittensandfobeo]

@Demanufactur3 i've heard it been called djent. i think that's the official title of this genre. along with bands like periphery and animals as leaders.... but who gives a shit

[Demanufactur3]

@mittensandfobeo

Djent stands for the tone of the guitars (Medium to high gain) and leaked over to what some people believe is a genre, my earlier statement wasn't completely correct however. Meshuggah can be put in many genre's depending on the album. (Here come a few genre's they'd fit into)

Trash (first album) Post-trash death (second album) Technical death metal, Avantgarde/death metal and ofcource! Heavy func (snap* snap*) (okay i might have made that last one up)

Legion.

[Headbanger9000]

@mittensandfobeo no djent is just a term used to describe the sound of the guitars because of the high gain and really low tunings. Meshuggah and Animals as Leaders are Progressive Metal

[BenjaminKuruga]

@Headbanger9000 Animals as leaders are progressive metal, Meshuggah is Meshuggah,

[Headbanger9000]

@BenjaminKuruga hahaha true no one sounds like Meshuggah

[BenjaminKuruga]

@Headbanger9000 Exactly!

[TheRobb573]

@Headbanger9000 Meshuggah is Meshuggah.

[chiodos132]

you guys are wrong, 1 person couldn't handle this fucking song and pussied out 30 seconds in.

[mee11mee]

Imagine this shit in slow-mo... epic

[johnthefreeman1]

@mee11mee

This (most of it, at least) is actually is the slow-mo of the original 2002 version :P

[N0SLAV3]

who the hell disliked this?

[skezness]

@N0SLAV3 yngwie malmsteen

[NeuroHead]

The perfect soundtrack to fucking your boss daughter in the ass.

[Jsimp0487]

@NeuroHead how young are we talking here?

[Jono6671]

fuck this is aaaaawwwwweeeeessssommmmmeeee

[ParagonofReality]

1 person would rather listen to Rebecca Black...

[MelissaSue1983]

1 person had a slumber party at justin bieber's house

[TheFearAsylum]

My balls started dropping at 2:07 and didn't stop till the end

[BTBAMBoarder]

lift me up higher in this moment

[BTBAMBoarder]

lift me up higher

[plumbc]

Messhuggah is the only band in which all the members play to their own arbitrary time signature and are able to pull it off.

[ZettaiThorn]

Meshuggah are so poor...They have 1 dislike while Rebbeca Black has millions of 'em! XD

[Dude11191]

Its like mushrooms in the translated into the form of music lol.

[DocSkurlock]

1:17 "Flavor-Ice!!"

[ClassicColtCabana]

@nemesiskorn I mean I'm a huge Acacia Strain fan, as I think they totally dominate their genre, but Meshuggah is in a league of their own. Glad I'm a big fan of both bands, and that I can appreciate TAS's Meshuggah influence.

But I realize TAS is hit or miss with people, sorry you think they sucked lol.

[ClassicColtCabana]

You can really tell The Acacia Strain got some influence from this song. Not that I dare compare the 2 musically as they worlds apart. 

[bloodyrockfire]

viking metal is truely the shit.

Meshuggah can not be ripped off, not in the proper way at least

[Fluffypopcicle]

@bloodyrockfire

this isn't even remotely close to viking metal.

[miestarSqils]

1 person was vapourised in a nebula

[giodruma99]

whats the tuning in this song?

[42themeaningoflife]

@giodruma99 They use 8 string guitars dropped a half step from standard.

[giodruma99]

@42themeaningoflife thanks, because its really hard to tell if this is in Drop E or something else. Or Drop Eb I really can't tell

[N0SLAV3]

@giodruma99 Drop E? what?

[giodruma99]

@N0SLAV3 The equivalence to Drop D on a 6 string guitar?

[kilborn666]

@N0SLAV3 its drop d almost an octave lower but on an 8 string guitar.

[Fluffypopcicle]

@N0SLAV3

NO!!! don't listen to those idiots, they have no idea what they're talking about. they take the standard tuning on an 8 string guitar and tune it a half step down. watch?v=rR7qSHp2-lo they even explain in this video, they don't tune to drop d, that would mean just having the e string or the f# string tuned down one whole step and the rest of the strings remain the same. it goes F Bb Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb. that's the tuning that they use.

[Fluffypopcicle]

@N0SLAV3

continuing: well, unless they're talking about this song exclusively, and now that i think about it they probably are. i know that the lowest string in this song is in Eb and that's a whole step down from what they usually do.

[TetraVaalBioSecurity]

Anybody else get that retard from Google with his stupid ass flute before listening to this?

[rage1331]

Tempo sucks. The 2002 release is *just* faster, probably 10 -15 bpm. The original sounds better.

[borris93]

@rage1331 I played them both simultaneously, they both start and finish at the exact same point.

I thought they were different tempos also but I proved myself wrong.

[rage1331]

Tempo sucks. The 2002 release sounds better, and its probably only 10 -20 bmp more.

[CyanideSovereign]

I wonder what would happen if you played this song beside the Large Hadron Collider whilst dividing by zero?

[jakeen229]

@CyanideSovereign That would be metal as fuck,,while fightng a black hole

[CyanideSovereign]

@jakeen229 I think maybe someone already tried. The cover-art for this album is a photograph.

[supah1337B]

@jakeen229 I just measured Meshuggahs awesomeness. Sadly it reaches to Inifity [Squared] and then turns into a paradox that I can't figure out

[dying8]

3:12 - 3:55 is staggering

[dujl]

@dying8 The part after that is colossal as well. Slow, planetary destruction.

[Avoryne]

PFFT! Drop 0Hz mutha fuckaz.

[TheCMH357]

this song is chunky and sludgy as fuck. gotta love meshuggah

[MyChemicalJasper483]

@lamb666ofgod666

lol XD

[yasminleveau]

ONE FUCKWIT WILL GET HIS BALLS GROUND INTO SAWDUST

[yasminleveau]

<3 fucking hell.

[CyanideSovereign]

That song's so heavy several extra atmospheres materialized above me. My house collapsed and I can barely breath, but worth it.

[ktrel54]

@CyanideSovereign Shit yeah it's worth it.

[Bierchen1337]

You know what? Just amazing.

[gsoks]

most underrated meshuggah song

[MutantClannfear]

This is fucking trippy...

[Meinfuss1]

Although meshuggah is not doom metal, they utilize doom metal's motto here..."Tune low, Play slow."

[murilospecht]

@Meinfuss1 I don't like doom metal bands, but somehow I love slow low tuned songs like this, maybe I'm just weird, or I wanna create a new music style, MANLY DOOM METAL! I don't know...

[UnarmedSnowman]

@murilospecht That is exactly how i feel!

[Meinfuss1]

@murilospecht Hellyeah do it man! As long as it rattles the shit outta my sub-woofers! LOL!

[Meshuggaaaahhhhh]

In dreams, it speaks to me of the truth that means reality...

Reality is a dream heavily reinforced/manifested through physical law. So follow your dreams, or live a life of misery!

[supah1337B]

@Meshuggaaaahhhhh REE-AHH-LUHH-TEE!!!

[imperfection32]

this is in like drop negative E

[Brettney01]

@imperfection32 Lmao dude, thats funny shit.

[vikingwizardeyes2121]

2:20  HOLY SHIIIIIT

[Sacla13]

wait. its a 7 minute song and ridiculous tuning. maybe if it's sped up double speed we can hear what they actually recorded :D

[supah1337B]

@Sacla13 Lol you can find the original. but this wasnt sped up, they just re-recorded it and made it heavier.

[Sacla13]

ok there's speed metal, but i've never heard of super slo-motion metal before. meshuggah. pushing the boundaries of music once again.

[macadoolahicky]

@Sacla13 haha ik man. im thinking maybe one day the band will be like "screw the system as a whole, im playing with my feet"

[Slayer21394]

This song sounds like the guitars were tuned down to the brown noise to play it. Great song, though, one of my favorites on perhaps my favorite album.

[jumatm]

@Slayer21394 HAHAHHA south park XD the brown noise

[joshplayin111]

This is what Satan sounds like when he busts a load all over Mary's face.

[jerk89]

@joshplayin111 hahha damn dude

[JosephTheMetalKid]

OMGz dis song requires extra extra f**kin sloooow headbangz yeah \m/

[AngstRiddenDreams]

@JosephTheMetalKid Dude reading that i could have sworn you were Toki from Metalocalypse.

[JosephTheMetalKid]

@AngstRiddenDreams hohoho

I may be! :)

[slowblood99]

WAH dun dun dun WAH dun dun dun dunnnnnnnnnnnnn....

[SquareWand]

@slowblood99 Djent dun dun dun Djent dun dun dun dun..

[mtbskiier92]

my face is in a permanent >:| when listening to meshuggah, gets me so goddamn pumped.

[ThatGuy1154]

Meshuggah normally plays a half step down on 8 string guitars (F-Bb-Eb-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Eb). However this song, as well as a few others from the Nothing album are in Drop Eb (Eb-Bb-Eb-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Eb). Yet, Spasm takes the cake with it's ultra low Bb0 tuning (Bb-F-Bb-Eb-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb)...ess­entially the LOW Bb is the same pitch as taking the lowest string on a 5 string bass (B0), and tuning it down a half step.

[Specialk0909]

this song puts the most maniacal smile on my face.

I love it. This tempo makes the sway of this tune haunting.

[jk47hm4]

The guitars are so fucking fat. Disgustingly brutal sound they have created.. sounds like God stepped in an ocean of tar.

[guitarmaster123456]

@jk47hm4 And then he raped satan

[supah1337B]

Meshuggahs so Awesome they made Shit happen.

5/5 Thumbsup

[heefster]

more machine than man

[Avoryne]

@heefster .....twisted....and evel.

[Lastmanonearth]

Now THATs what i like to hear.

[metalheadtilimdead12]

I could listen to the first riff for hours

[Avoryne]

HOLY SHIT!!!

MESHUGGAH INVENTED DINOSAURS!!!!

[NeuroHead]

If all the chinese people would play this motherfucker at the same time the earth would jump out of orbit and the sun die.

HAIL MESHUGAH!!!!!

[dablacksolja]

@NeuroHead btw why chinese people?

[NeuroHead]

@dablacksolja

With just over 1.3 billion people (1,330,044,605 as of mid-2008), China is the world's largest and most populous country.

As the world's population is approximately 6.7 billion, China represents a full 20% of the world's population so one in every five people on the planet is a resident of China.

China's population growth has been somewhat slowed by the one child policy, in effect since 1979.

[sLObZenOnMyNObzen]

My ass hairs are on fire nuff said

[shamane999]

Lower than the lowest isn't low enough!!!

[ScrewLimbBizkit]

So much better then the original.

[dujl]

@ScrewLimbBizkit I disagree. This is a little bit too slow at some parts that should have been kept the same.

[jk47hm4]

this music makes you feel like theres a giant jumping in circles around you

[supah1337B]

my face busted when the opening riff played

[Caconymic]

Dun DUNDUNDUN dun DUNDUNDUN

[JahazielFaber]

love the opening riff.

[theflyingscudman]

I wonder if this could have the power to pull me out of a bad trip...

[mrtambourineman117]

@theflyingscudman more like pull you into one

[asikere]

[quisquefaber88]

lidless eyes twitching beneath a sheet of rot, they reach out. they want to kiss. it matters not.

[quisquefaber88]

devastating

[immortalx50]

5:03

they tuned their guitars down to low K# to play this part

lol

[DanteLeblanc]

Eb+Bb+Eb-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Eb.

Some fucking gnarly djent.

[immortalx50]

no, it's holyfuck# tuning

[gibbsies]

haha

[abysslord16]

@DanteLeblanc

 F-Bb-Eb-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Eb

[DanteLeblanc]

I thought they dropped this track? It sounds like it.

[abysslord16]

i know they have tuned down to and octave below Eb, but i always read it stayed in a standard tuning progression, but i could have read a lie, so either or maybe.

[Caconymic]

I'm quite sure that this track is tuned to drop Eb, but they do mostly tune to F standard.

[pissed7off]

@Caconymic

It's just their 8-string guitars tuned flat, which would have the bottom string be an F.

[gibbsies]

rofl K# hey?

[JosephTheMetalKid]

@immortalx50 K!? wtf? hahahahaha

[slowblood99]

@immortalx50 Fuck K, I would go with Z Flat.

[Toxicity1987]

@slowblood99 its Simple ,E

There is no K or Z

[TheFearAsylum]

@Toxicity1987 lol? it's a joke, idiot

and its not E, its Eb or actually I think a low low D for this song

[chiknzrule99]

@TheFearAsylum Eb sounds like... and that would make sense because they usually use the bottom F and that's a whole step from F

[TP2010]

Thanks for the tip dumbass.

[jumatm]

@immortalx50 HAHAHAHAHAHAHA low K# HAHAHA epic shit dude xD i rofled

meshuggah ftw \o/
