only listened to it once so far. admittedly i thought it was a bit of a slow one to get going and struggled to grab me. will give it another run at the gym this arvo.
Religion is no fun. Religion endangers the life and happiness of millions. It must stop. We appeal in particular to the youth of today. STOP THE MADNESS! There are better things in life. |

Favourite tracks: The Demon's Name is Surveillance Swarm Demiurge When the vocals match up with the guitars in the second chorus on Demon's Name... I shit my brain every time. Only song that won't sit with me yet is The Hurt That Finds You First. |

Easily my favorite Meshuggah album ever.
It's not doing well for traffic around here. Apparently, I want to kill everybody that drives a car whilst listening to this. I can't stop saying "Fuck you!", "Move you stupid bitch!", "Hello!?...the light's fucking green you dumb motherfucker...MOVE!". I need a Monster Truck.  Seriously. This album is amazing. I can't wait to buy it and watch the DVD.

I got the limited clear vinyls yesterday but the panda pre-ordered the even more limited green vinyls for me the day before.
I  this album.

At least we all agree on something. Now I need to convince you guys that "The Thing" prequel was an awesome movie.

Damn, haven't listened to these guys in a long time. Remember when they first came out, they were supposed to be the biggest thing for the future & rule the World later on. Guess not.
Always thought they were good, but could never really get into them. Too "proggy" for me, they tried too hard for it, & it made the music sound less natural and more disjointed. Schizo-metal if you will.  |

I think The Dillinger Escape Plan are more "Schizo-metal" than Meshuggah.

After listening to it 2 times, it's safe to say, the album fucking ROCKS!! The only song Im having a hard time getting into is "I Am Colossus."

I ordered the album today
 Hopefully it'll arrive before Easter. In the meantime I have Spotify. If a man is standing in the middle of the forest speaking, and there is no woman around to hear him, is he still wrong? |

It's easily the best thing they've done since I. I wasn't a big fan of Catch 33 and Obzen had some good parts here and there but as a whole I never really got into it that much. I'll have to spin Nothing again sometime soon but it never grabbed me either.
The Demon's Name Is Surveillance, The Hurt That Finds You First and then every track following it is How could I, ever think, it's funny how, everything you swore would never change, is different now, like you said, you and me make it through, didn't quite, fell apart, where the fuck were you? |

^I will never understand why people react with such anger and abuse to others' opinions on matters of taste.
So fuck if he disagrees? Keep it in good spirits, man. You come off sounding like a 13 year old commenting on a youtube video. _______________ Never Open Me Up |

My favorite three are Marrow, Break Those Bones, and Swarm.
What I love most is the production. Guitars are very wide...almost 3D sounding. Listen to the beginning of Marrow and how much it opens up when the second guitar comes in. Mmmmmm tasty. Drums are huge huge huge. Some of the best I've heard in a long time. |

I do appreciate you taking the time from punching the munchkin to your manowar posters to troll me though. And who's that douchebag in your avatar next to Phil?

Don't mind Willy, he's just drunk again...
Although he is right about that prequel...  Anyways, I really like this album. Quite "Nothing'esque" at times, but at least on the first few listens, the new songs grab me more than on that album. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  |

Its pretty awesome. As usual.
I like Obzen, its just a bit different for them. A bit more emphasis on groove. This retains some of that groove, whilst going back to that classic Meshuggah sound. So fucking excellent. At least thats how it sounds to me, after 2 listens.

Those 8 string custom Ibanez' downtuned sound pretty wicked. I think "The demon's name is surveillance" could be the coolest song title ever.
