Meshuggah - By The Ton (Guitar Cover by Dillon Owens) 

The outro on this song are some of the heaviest riffs ever written.

IMO best meshuggah cover on youtube, and i've seen a lot. Half of covering a meshuggah song is being able to play the right notes in time, the other half is getting the guitar tone right, and you nailed both dude

Perfect job on that pick scraping

well done man. fredrik was smokin that good shit when we wrote this one.

phenomenal 👌👌👌

Bro, the level of perfection is just what???

2:51-3:47 r u a wizard that whole minute fucks my head up real good

My favorite song off of the album and you executed it perfectly. Great job man!

Fucking nailed it. And that tone can shred anyone apart sounding like a damn chainsaw. I love it bro

awesome job m8 ;)

That tone shook me loose, and now I need to take a dump. Meshuggah, keeping me regular since 1995.

That tone is incredible.

ONLY Fredrik can write this kind of stuff! i will miss him so much! Meshuggah without Fredrik is like Maiden without Harris

dude thats my DREAM ibanez guitar!!!!! love the cover!

Does it feel as good to play it as it does to listen to it?

Awesome cover and fantastic tone! This is also my favorite song off of the album

This song sound like it was written by an Stoner AI, the amount of dissonance, wicked distortion, low droning notes and the emphatic sound of the pulling strings is almost hypnotizing. And that final breakdown is groovy and heavy AF!

Nailed the tone, and all the subtlties in the riffs. Really really great cover. Also my favorite song on the violent sleep of reason beside monstrocity.

that is a sick guitar

Really awesome cover and massive tone!!!

Crazy tight. You got a superb ear, all the details are well researched! Love your rendition man

damn that was awesome

Brilliant cover dude. Well done

Seriously fine work my brother! Nailed it! And getting to watch someone play the guitar parts to Meshuggah songs up close gives me an even deeper appreciation for how truly amazing of a band they are (since you can't really see any of the guys in the band when you attend one of their shows, it's harder to truly appreciate the full spectrum of what Martin, Dick, and Fredrick are actually doing visibly). Well done, my friend! Time for YOU to make YOUR mark on the world now. Skill-wise: you're more than there! Sweet guitar too. What brand/model is it? Your tone is spot on! Thanks for sharing.

You did an incredible job - I used your tab for an analysis video and didn't realise you were also the dude who did this cover!

This one has groove for centuries

Much kudos on that tone man. Most people can't manage to make guitars with shorter scales than the M8Ms sound nearly as clearly as you do. Most guys just seem to pile on the gain and bass, without even thinking about the mids. You had me banging my head at the first bridge section, for sure. Almost sounds better than the recorded version IMO.

Brutal!

Best Meshuggah tone and cover on you tube, fo sho!

Holy hell thats some memory. I have learned a good deal of Meshuggah and i have a great grasp on the rhythmic methods they use but i just can't remember this whole track. it seems to almost never repeat. Utterly amazing job.

Great song and very nice cover !

beautiful guitar

WOW man, you destroy this onde, very nice tone, GZ from Brazil!

Amazing job!!!

100% nailed

Great work on the nuances)

Ace cover!

Dig..!

Big hands for big tone !!

this is fucken crazy i mean super crazy good

Back on the day, I had to remember fatalities for MKII by remembering the correct button combination, or combo in Tekken…same thing. But this one, on guitar, remembering which frets to play when, being so atonal, well….I mean, makes the fatalities and combos seem like remembering how to breathe

damn this is super good

amazing job man! Tight!

Awesome job dude!!! And btw that guitar is a beautiful piece of gear, I just got myself a 7 stringed Iron Label that sound killer

Great cover man. Subbed right away.

Hey I got the same guitar! Great cover man!

FAHH!!! QUE BARDO ESE TEMAA!!! EXCELENTE BEATIFUL!!

Bestial!

Tightest cover

This is sick dude

Awesome job man

this is great! could you cover the violent sleep of reason plssss? also, love your guitar man it's sickkk

BLACK HOLE GROOVE!

who TF would dislike this?

Daaawnnnn!!! lml

Wow that sounded awesome nice job man! This record is my favorite Meshuggah guitar tone! What amps did they use to record VSOR? Care to share that preset?

Gojira shirt?

Hi,a really neat cover! I wanna ask you that your tabs are not working.Guitar tab wants me to pay but otherwise i can't get the tabs.Downloaded them and they can't be opened.Any tips on how can i get those tabs?

brutal! \m/

*OUI*

Fantastic stuff! Any chance you would share the AxeFx patch? Your tone is nuts good and it would give me a reason to update my firmware!

What preamp and setup do you use? What's the scale length and pickups?

Why you touch everytime the volume on the guitar? hahaha Killing cover!!!!!

Awesome tone! String gauges?

Hell yes drop fucking z baby..........

I just subscribed. Fucking awesome my dude.

Missed the string noises in the 1:09 riff 😢

Awesome tone man!!! Are those pickups D'activators by any chance?

Play loud for full effect.

To your own sleaze their “fuck you” will now bind What is this muddled glee made of evil? In the incentive to mongrelize I see fear and intrigue co-mingle You hesitate to defile your kind Yet when their lace is shown, your eyes pervert Youthful spawn from that fear-filled soul Your nerves and intuition bank-roll their new fruit You think that they sing the truth, you think a show Yet disbelief finds a shrouded clause In their sweet voice - annihilation They devour your stock If you only knew how dark human life will be then Love this atrocity, mixing all blood, soil Their will to annihilate, your godless stock aroused They break your mind, can’t fight this death Sew the promise of man dysgenic for all time Witness kin despair, ensure tribal torment Witness your tribe presenting their ass, take it

Stop touching that volume knob bro, it don't go to 11.

Gojira shirt he’ll yeah

Get on a 7 and tune to f and tab out jinjer-perennial. I don't have time..... Lol. 💯

Can i get tab for 5:08?

Nice job Dillon. Too bad about the lack of melody in 12 tone. LOL

tone is better then the original, both great though

That tone is heavier than a ton

Not the best track on the album

Like Pantera on f'n steroids and DMT

Yeahh very nice! and dat tone!!!

this music contains some of the best meshuggah's riffs in my opinion, well done man

Nice tone, sir.

Hard to believe but i See and Hear it, amazing 😮👌

Axe settings here? I have an axe ultra and would to get close to a tone like this ❤
