Meshuggah 10 "Shed" HQ Sound Live @ Pop's Sauget, Illinois 02-23-2013 

Yea, they were. They used to not even be able to play that live. Man they are just fucking machines.

I came here because of that

It was literally the 'single' for catch 33, and even has a music video. Hardly underrated.

@@kaamos79How does it being a single and having a music video have anything to do with it being underrated? Those things just means the band chose it to represent the album, probably because it’s the only track that sort of makes sense on its own, and says nothing about fan reception. I’ve spent countless hours on various Meshuggah forums throughout the years since this album dropped and it is very common to see people discuss favourite songs or new listeners asking for song tips, and it is extremely rare to see this song even mentioned in any context. I love it and agree it is underrated.

It's their magnum opus tbh

Back then Ljudas did the lighting, Tomas' brother also does the lighting. They have such a big crew it's hard to know who is who now

@@djentmaster33it’s tomas’ cousin actually

clockworks is now a meshuggah song

I see what you did there

I bet Edvard is doing those visuals with closed eyes ;) (got it? haha)

How did he know???

@@philippmuller-litz7588 closed eye visuals 🤘

olpaxis he's become, without a doubt, the 6th member of Meshuggah! Just saw them on their "Violent Sleep of Reason" tour, and he's stepped up his game even more (so has the band, remarkable considering their age! Few bands experience a Peak as epic as they are right now this late into band's career and its members lives.). Check out this video I captured of "Nostrum" from 2016 in Kansas! Visuals have definitely seen a major upgrade! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6t8mx7FLrRs.html

I thought it was Edvard Hansson that was doing lighting? At least recently he was, I've communicated with him on Instagram

@@DaleEarnhardt_ Could very well be that they've changed things up. My comment was a decade ago haha. (Saw Meshuggah four times in that decade and their lightning and stage and everything got crazier and crazier. Especially on VSONR-tour with lasers and everything.)

That is because most songs on Catch 33 especially this track, they had to use a drum machine on the album version because it was so difficult to play in the time that they had to record the album. Years later....Hakee is a fucking drum machine and now we get to see it! 😂

@@Lordnat1lol, c33 is probably one of their easiest albums to play on drums, the programmed drums had nothing to do with difficulty, it was a combination of time constraints from the record label and the band deciding to test out the newly developed ”drumkit from hell”. Thomas could easily have recorded the drums but he simply didn’t have time to.

@adamnilsson566 I've been listening to this band longer than you have probably been alive. If this was the easiest album ever as you say....then they had plenty of time. If the best drummer in this solar system couldn't drum this "easy album" in time.....then it was too difficult in the time that they had. There is a reason why we don't see Millenium Suicide Christ live anymore.....or any other song from Caosphere these days...its difficult and like you said.....time. im not saying you're wrong, but neither am I. They took the time to cut a video for SHED, and it's a focus track from the album, but playing it live is rare for a reason. I will edit what I said, it came out wrong.

Really?

I think he did it in the studio but it would be too hard to do live

He does write a lot of the lyrics, I wasn't aware that he did vocals as well.

He does spoken word vocals, such as Exquisite machinery of torture, spasm, minds mirrors, shed, dancers to a discordant system and broken cog. There might be more but yea that is usually Thomas’s thing in the studio, and in the rare case those songs get played live Jens just has to try his best to emulate that.

I’d like to know too
