Reaction to MESHUGGAH - Break Those Bones Whose Sinews Gave It Motion 

Your face should be everyone's first reaction to Meshuggah

"It's so heavy you can chew it" my guy, what an apt description of the feeling this evokes

Ayyyy! Finally! Someone who analyzes Meshuggah's lyrics! I personally think their lyrics are vastly underrated. So, thanks for that!

Try “I am Colossus” off the same album. It sounds like a Titan playing a Suspension Bridge using a semi truck for a pick.

What boggles my mind is how he not only writes such poetic lyrics, but also ones that are so creative, that really paint a weird, vivid picture when English isn't even his native tongue. Btw the drummer is the lyricist for the most part in Meshuggah IIRC, Tomas Haake.

That face you’re pulling is the essence of Meshuggah, such a dirty track

Every single meshuggah son has the same level of lyrical poetry if not higher and most people ignore the lyrics. It's sad

Stank face from the first note. Well done!! Thanks for spending time on the lyrics.

Some find this song repetitive, boring, the vocals grating. But I don't care, I freaking love it. The groove and simple melody at the instrumental break always gets me. It's basically the final part, with just bass, drums and lead guitar.

Meshuggah are one of my favs, Destroy, Erase, Improve is a world class album

Meshuggah, also known as "where's the 1?" Actually most of their stuff is in 4/4, they just dance around with the off beats like no one else I think I didn't love this song when I first heard it, but after like 4 or 5 times something clicked and now I'm addicted to it. Most of their discography is like that, and it becomes very meditative once you're tuned in to the tunes.

Meshuggah are one of those bands whose songs get better every time you listen. I'd highly recommend reacting to Straws Pulled at Random next, it's one of their best imo!

Meshuggah... One of the few bands where every song gives you a face that looks like you just ate a lemon...

Peanut butter and glue is by far the best description of Meshuggah sound thickness \m/

I describe this as what is feels like to be a man. You feel power in rage and that's why the metal scene is so male dominated.

Brother if you want heavy with a killer groove and deep lyrics check out I Am Colossus by Meshuggah, amazing song, you will dig it. 🖖

I heard the word "meshuggah" used by a character in Borderlands 3 (the Danny Devito looking dude). I think it means "crazy" in Yiddish. "Don't make me go meshugga in this bitch!"

Do Straws Pulled at Random, its their best song. Also ObZen

Something about your voice is so soothing and smooth it really contrasts with the music right after lol

"The most heaviest, poetic song I've ever heard" I've never read a more fitting description

Yes it is about the feeling of revenge but I also love the dual meaning of that and the physical sound they are USING to produce that feeling. The subharmonics and chords shuddering and vibrating as the guitar sounds twist around and chug giving you that absolute sinister heaviness you feel. It truly is a sonic declaration of spite.

Gojira was very inspired by Meshuggah. Metallica and Meshuggah were their orienter.

You know you're hearing a Southern boy when they mention the time signature and you thought they were talking about how the toms sound LOL

Came back to say I’ve shared this reaction quite a few times. It’s one of the best Mesh reactions I’ve ever seen. “That feeling when you know you’re in trouble...”. 😭 Great stuff. Reminds me of my first listen to them over two decades ago.

4:20 Yupp. That expression pretty much describes it all perfectly.

😂 it's in 4/4, snare is on the 3. It cracks me up when people think its some odd time signatures all the time. In multiple interviews , Tomas Haake always says it's 4/4 with everything they do. And most of the polyrhythm stuff underneath always falls on 4. Their early stuff from the 90s is more expensive on different polyrhythms and progressive song structures. But now from the album "Nothing" and to present, they use 8 string guitars and groove a lil more. Like a good example is to check out the 90s live videos... they moved around allot more but still kept the pulse going bc of the time meters. But now if you watch them live on stage, they all just stand and head bob to the 4/4 the entire time. 😂 like... literally going to the beat. But yet people will say what time signatures are these??? 😂 just loom at the head bobs. They're literally showing you how to catch the beat.

The demons name is surveillance Lyrics will give you chills ...

LMAO THE MOLASSES COMPARISON GAINED YOU A SUB!!

Great reaction, most listeners of music disregard lyrics and just jam out You should try some more songs from Meshuggah, you may appreciate it 🤘 Suggestions - Rational Gaze & Dancers to a Discordant System

You were not ready, for what this song do👀

If you ever have the chance listen to meshuggah, demon's name is surveillance. Its nastier then this amazing song

Sane. the mouth licking what you've bled! soul burn! need more reactions to old songs!

that Stank face speaks for itself. Meshuggah great, and im pretty sure they where one of the original groups that pioneered Djent music. Also just because you mentioned about your earbuds, ive found that a good pair of noise cancelling headphones like Sehnnheiser or AKG really improve listening. i use AKG for music production at present

People on Meshuggah: what's the time signature? My Head: 1 + 2 + 3 + 4...

Mannn. Awesome review, instant follow. PLEASE listen/react to Meshuggah - Dancers to a Discordant System. It is Meshuggahs Magnum Opus in terms of heavy, technicality but for sure lyrically. The deepest lyrics to any song. You’d make every meshuggah fan-boys day!

Such a great reaction... worth another watch. Thanks bro. Hail Shuggah \m/

My first time on your channel. Like the way you break stuff down. You got another subscriber. Meshuggah is by far one of the heaviest bands out there, and were heavy before Gojira was an impure thought. Going to see them in Cleveland, March 2022, already have the tickets and can't wait.

I love seeing someone geek out about the lyrics. I can recommend a song by meshuggah Called Dancers to a Discordent System, and make sure to have a lyrics video 🖖🤟

I really enjoyed your reaction! Fun fact: Thomas Haake, the drummer of the band, is most of times the one who writes the lyrics. :)

That stank face is the only appropriate reaction to this intro riff.

Meshuggah like them big words tho

activate the *STANK FACE*

The face when it hits😂😂😂

Meshuggah might have the best lyricism ever, and their riffs are only rivaled by Mick Gordon.

They honestly sound amazing on any speaker, even a DIY paper plate speaker running on potato juice

Yup. That's the meshuggah face

Do not look down is a banger too!

This man's voice is... Fucking smooth jazz. Dave you got a new fan.

You could react to future breed machine (campfire version) aka futile bread machine

If you want the heaviest Meshuggah track, try Demiurge ;)

Happy Stanksgiving!

This is the best reaction of all time..

Great reaction!!! You should react to there only single ever “ I “. It is unbelievable!!!

💖🥰💖

Fun fact. The drummer writes most of their songs and lyrics.

New Millenium Cyanide Christ (Official Video) Dancers to a Discordant System (Official Video)

The heaviest band on Earth, it's just a fact. And this song is one of the heaviest, if not THE heaviest.

Imagine seeing them live, that heaviness manifestings things inside your soul, your core, it takes it.. shows it to you, crush it and break it, then leave it in your care after the show to heal.

Me (like memory) - Shug (like suge knight) - ah (like uhhh, I don't know). (Yiddish word for crazy)

This song is so repetitive, the draw of it is those subtle changes in intensity. Pure skill.

Dude, at about 3:50, watching you listen to this is like seeing animation of my soul as it receives the Gift of Meshuggah. This is great, man. Thanks

Hey I'm not a Metallica fan, but they are heavy. They're thrash metal. Yes Meshuggah, Gojira, & many more extreme metal bands are much much heavier than Metallica, but saying Metallica isn't heavy at all is just going way too far.

Please react to Meshuggah - Obzen 2008 from obZen album thanks, conside me subbed.

It's Meshuggah like meh-shoog-uh. It's a Yiddish (Jewish) word that means crazy. Someone who's meshuggah is nuts.

Face on point. Fkn subbed for life. Saw all I had to , to knowz sub, Patreon, watch haha. Sir well done sir.

"The soundtrack to our hostility" always makes me cringe, sad to say.

Great soundtrack for some energy

Pravus

Follow his symbol. It slows it down for the new folks to this cacophony. Just a suggestion

Priceless. Just wait for when he’s locked into their 4/4 MO. He’ll acquire the entire catalogue.

Fun fact: People who like and people who dislike meshuggah make the same face

Gotta say dave! That sounded horrible... this is the 1st experience I have actually had! It seems like I got through something horrible with someone on you tube ... but I enjoyed every minute of it... fu;,%*, weird.

Heretic's Fork is a killer song by Power Trip

1:25. yup, we all have the same face when listeting to messhuggah

Gotta do a new meshuggah song ligature marks

"It's like peanut butter and glue".

"The 4 of them sat around a round table"

Very heavy and so dang good! Woah!

react to Singing REALLY LOW: Questions AnsweredSinging REALLY LOW: Questions Answered by geoff castellucci its new

Hold on now.....it's so heavy

Hahahah that's the right face!

1:12 that face. I can relate brother 😂

MESHUGGAH - DEMIURGE

Awsome 👊🏼 One of the best band ever U should listen to Imminence - paralyzed - Infectious - lighthouse - Erase

Clockwork ufffffffssss

Hi sam hyde

I love it so much and I love when people get and understand this music well done bro good video iv subscribed check out like bands Korn or foo fighters or some slayer or if you think your ready some cannibal corpse

Instant stank face

say it like this: The neighbor wants to borrow a cup of Meshuggah

Try meshuggah (into decay)

The heaviest, and blatantly said the sickest stuff ever in my eyes is "Infant Annihilator". And yes that band name is already as sick as can be and their songs live up to that! Something like "Three Bastards" is only disgusting, but something like "Blasphemian" is worse... Good musicians, really good ones, but stuff to give you nightmares!

Peanut Butter and Glue sounds like a phenomenal album name

Try out "Clockwise"! THIS are really crazy time signatures! But - oh so breautiful! ( eh, not his voice... but I don`t have to tell you THAT, have I? ) 😁🤘

this track like tryna chew a rock

Meshuggah Rational Gaze

That meshuggah face hahaha!

Meshuggah "Pravus" (Alive DVD)

Great reaction !!!

Best band ever.

Love that stank face haha
