...Meshuggah are (as of this writing) considered, is a very difficult genre to review when it comes to being progressive in nature. Yes, it is very heavy most of the time, and it also represents alot of things about metal that the more traditional prog fan hates. Indeed, more often than not the listener will hear such things as death metal...

...Meshuggah album, at times its even more brutal and heavier than Chaosphere, its chock-full of the technicality one would come to expect from the guys from Umea, Sweden by this point, and its definitely a great combination of everything that Meshuggah has done to date, from death to thrash to groove to experimental metal, a little bit of...

...Meshuggah. Meshuggah changed their sound radically on this release allthough its probably not obvious for the untrained ear. Meshuggahs debut album called Contradictions Collapse was a technical/ fusion thrash album that sometimes seemed to be complex for the sake of it while their second album Destroy Erase Improve was a much more mature...

...Meshuggah should pay each and every person who might have been foolish enough to spend 50 minutes of their lives listening to the album. In fact, Contradictions Collapse is a bomb. Well, at least sounds like one My first encounter with the disc was actually pleasant probably due to the fact that I was playing Starcraft while listening to the...

...Meshuggah sound through the whole thing. However, some of the stuff definetely sounds repetitive and has a lack of ideas First off, Combustion has some great energy to it. Great speed, and the whole song is in a simple 4/4 tempo, unusual for later Meshuggah music. Great thrashing. The most inventive part is the count off, which the cymbal...

Meshuggah has got to be the only metal band that can surprise you by playing something with a comprehensible note sequence. Be it a normal guitar solo or riff, Meshuggah generally wants nothing to do with that. They would prefer beating you senseless with their heavy rhythmic assult - no melodies, no repetition in the rhythm, and certainly no...

...Meshuggah albums make it clear that I am not much a fan of the band. But why review only bands you enjoy I contains, as many have said before, some of Meshuggah's most brutal and crushing riffs ever recorded on an album. Neat. This is a band built for drummers. The entire four piece act is one massive (and kind of bland) rhythm piece, with...

...Meshuggah may have nailed it with this album. This, paired with Chaosphere, is possibly the finest album of technical metal I have ever heard. The music is mathematically bombastic to no limit, however it isn't pompous, as pomposity would probably turn its nose up at the raw brutality and violence of this music. Once again, no melody to be...

...Meshuggah reviews that Im going to make ? Lets start by saying that this is tech metal band Meshuggahs debut album. An album I have owned for many years. Since 1994 to be exact. I found the LP in a second hand store and fell for the apocalyptic cover art. I had heard about Meshuggah and seen commercials for Contradictions Collapse in some of...
