although there have never been as much bands on the scene as nowadays, a steadily raising portion of them use similar tools when composing. this statement is true for pop, electro, rock, metal - all the scenes, regardless of direction or movement.
and there is a minority of odd bands. bands, whom are easily recognized and follow a path unknown to others. experimenting with ale while others brew the same lager. swede meshuggah is certainly producing an ale of psychosis attracting folks.
this band has to be seen live at least once in a lifetime. and even though they experienced with no live-drums on recordings after massively collaborating to create EZ drummer. started to play live without any guitar cabinets on stage, while introducing 8stringed instruments first on the scene. even play without a bass (cause with 8strings the natural bass frequency is just there). when hitting the wall with all these artifical tools, they turned back on their earlier record, obZen and now presenting the much more focused Koloss. a pure metal inferno. a wave of tribal grooves distorted and lowered. for me: another proof for ingenuity.
if i had one wish, would like to receive a collection of songs next time like the end part of the hurt finding me first, marrow, or breaking my bones which gave them motion. these parts are probably the darkest psychedelia ever recorded in such delicate, soft fashion. this is what meshuggah is all about and the reason to put my headphones up, turn volume to the boost and shout out loud with Jens and the guys. marvellous.
