Meshuggah

Postby Darkweasel on Thu Jan 24, 2008 1:52 am

Acquired their latest album "obZen" yesterday and the bugger doesn't want to leave the hi-fi.

When a band cancels a tour to "work on the album" I'm always a bit dubious. Most of the time that translates into "we've just realised the new album's shit and we need to slap a load of new tracks down to cover our arses".

This, however, reeks of class and you can clearly hear the amount of hard work that has been put into it.
Best thing they've done in years.

I shall be purchasing by legal means the day it comes out.

Great band. Parts of our song 'Isle of Dogs' is a blatant rip off of their style.

I don't mind some Meshuggah stuff, but I DESPISE the seeminly infinite well of bands 'inspired' by them. Seems like every band has to have a horrible staccato section these days.

Fucking shit-poor band!

I have nothing good to say about the band nor their style.

Thoroughly piss-poor!
