@failure2comply76 I don't really care how they do it, well I kinda do, but as long as it has a relatively consistant groove and it sound's good, I like it.

@failure2comply76 interesting comment. yes, one actually needs some frames (like Meshuggah mostly have a 4/4 one) to create "math metal", 'cause if the time signature changes all the time, then it's not math, but random rhythmics (which can be badass as well, dudes, check out Behold The Arctopus). I think Meshuggah is the perfect example of "math metal", because what they do most of the time is making variations at the instrument tracks on an often hardly intelligible 4/4 frame.

I can see your point about monotony, but not as an insult, rather in how the rhythm is structured throught the song. Tomas Haake himself even states most meshugguah songs are formed on a 4/4 central pulse, with the polyrhthmic element coming from both the other other instruments and also jens vocal patterning. The monotonous 'pulse' is actually what gives the music an interesting perspective in terms of mathematics because it acts as a framework and helps create consistency.
