@ibaho124 I think they've said that they're Progressive Metal, and to be honest, that seems like the most accurate descriptor. Djent is sorta like Grunge, in that people who love the genre hate the term.
chappers, i love you and am a longtime fan, but you seem a little in over ur head on this one, i would call probably two of those bands just death metal and one or none doom :/
@DontRespondImStupid really the so called "djent gods" periphery say they are "groove rock", not djent. and yes the sound has a lot of mids to let the pick attack show. and i do have common sense to look up my facts before i make a reply unlike you good sir. and don't call your self stupid because your actions say volumes... U MAD BRO?
facts beg to differ. you need more than that pick attack to be called djent. there are too many unique specifics for it not to be a genre. im stupid, but my brain still works with common sense. yours doesn't, i reckon you have around 2 brain cells left in that pee brain of yours.
@DontRespondImStupid meshuggah isnt djent retard, and djent isnt a genre is a sound that the guitar has. bands with a djent sound take alot from meshuggah. as for that sound they mix mathcore, metalcore, and sludgmetal
cover band? um, no. go look up djent. google it. do some research. meshuggah aren't even remotely close to death metal. yeah, they're heavy. so is black metal, that doesn't mean meshuggah are anything close to death metal. stupid. oh, this video should teach you something valuable watch?v=_BI0szjpxJs
@DontRespondImStupid Lamb of God and Chimaira are groovy metal bands. Slayer is thrash metal, but thrash metal and death similar have very similar and overlapping lineages. Djent is just a genre for a specific type of cover band. Meshuggah are heavily within the death metal genre. They're also pretty groovy in a strange way.
oh, so lamb of god and chimaira aren't groove metal, slayer isn't thrash metal, and meshuggah isn't djent. thank you for this information, i will now spread it around youtube because it's perfect for my file name.

@DontRespondImStupid Well Meshuggahs older stuff is alot more Death/thrash than the stuff they are doing today.
But yeah they are not death....
I think the "djent is just a genre for a specific type of cover band" is a joke mate, about how everyone copies meshuggah/periphery.
