Very true. I wish America could take notes from Scandinavian Countries and make the changes that our education system needs. But America is a very suborn country. And there are many hidden forces at work that keep things the way they are for reasons we may never understand. My theory is that education is such a low priority, so that America can get more people from other countries to do the advanced jobs, while normally educated Americans are forced to work at basic minimum wage jobs. Just imagine an America where the majority of people were highly educated. There would be a shortage of people willing to do the manual labor jobs and minimum wage work. And minimum wage work is the majority of work unfortunately. This country needs a serious increase in the minimum wage if we want the economy to ever fully rebound. And increased minimum wage would make a little dent in the wealth gap in this county. It wouldn't be much. But it would be better than where it is at now. The rich currently have all the money, while the poor are left struggling week to week and day to day. We live in an upside down system.

Also, we don't dub films and tv shows like many European countries do, and we consume a lot of American and British entertainment :)

A tip for any *drummers* trying to play this song - he uses a augmented technique of heel-toe. Similar to a rocking motion, it utilizes otherwise wasted momentum to add other quick kick on the overlaying triplets. I'm still working on the song myself, stamina is my main issue, but after figuring this out I was doing much better! Don't be discouraged if you can't get it right away like other songs, this is literally a milestone for most hardcore metal drummers. Stick with it and practice!
@thaidozy

Yes that's right. It was the left foot that took me so long to get. Tomas does left heel up (as in the Wincent live video) but I found the floating rocking motion to fit better for me for both feet. Fuck it took forever to get though, over a year of regular work on it. I also found my shins took ages to build stamina, calves don't seem to cop it too much at all. Keep at it man, you'll get there for sure.

Sure, the playing and style seems all ones and zeroes, but just try and memorize the order of those ones and zeros that go by 300 times per minute and are barely uniform. I know it's not the best metaphor but it's what I see in my head when I try to think about the structure of any Meshuggah song.

When I first heard this song, I thought, There's no way this could be played on drums without a trigger or with a programmed drum machine. Now that I know the kick drum riff is only played with two feet, I'm even more impressed than before. (And playing this on guitar? One thing at a time, please!) Trying to figure out this rhythm and how to count it has made my head feel almost the same as when I try to contemplate nothing existing (No stars, no galaxies, no universe, NOTHING. Try it if you never have. It's a quick, easy way to dip your foot into the pool of confusion and madness.). Pure chaos set to a head-bang inducing metal song. AWESOME!

While playing this song is quite the feat, understanding the rhythm is easier if you hear it 4 - the basic riff from the beginning is the main one. The rest of the song is a variation off of that main riff. That's what's happening in a lot of their music. If you can understand it in your head and in your body, that will help. The other way of doing it is break the basic riff into rhythms in different time signatures (that eventually all add up to 4/4). I like hearing their music in 4.

Nah, just because the 4/4 groove stays constant, you HAVE to know the underlying patterns.

You don't just FEEL this stuff to perform it, you have learn it, and then after you master it, you can just FEEL it.

But it's also true that they play in some crazy odd time signatures. So one could say that they're playing in 4s where each bar of 4 has a different pattern from the next one (and then they repeat in groups) OR One could also say that they're playing in weird time sigs that just repeat with a tail piece after some reps to round it off to a 4

Swedish and English are clearly pretty similar, as far as what I guess is called the phonics. Every Swede I've known, within a year, sounds unusually American. Not exactly, but damn close. This does not happen with people from Russia, Mexico, Germany, ect.....they keep that accent for pretty much the rest of their lives. Not the Swedes.

No. I dont have enough room here to explain why everything about that statement irks me, so I'll jump to the conclusion: The rythmic technicality shown in Meshugga's playing (guitarists included) is mind bending. not just performing those rythms, but writting them, arranging them together shows true mastery of the guitar. If anything, I'd say shredding and this type of playing or just as hars as one another.

Sorry I was wrong on that, Spasm has guitar bits in 7/8. and technically a swing feel is 6/4, I think. But yes you are making valid points, so excuse me.

This song must’ve been the catalyst for djent’s rise a couple years later which is cute cuz i don’t think there’s another song out there that’s so unapologetically DJENT. amazing music video too.

This song is nothing less than legendary. I'm so surprised they even doubt to add it to the album. Also, that's so beautiful to see an artist give such hard work and succeed to push his own limits and technics. That's so inspiring and make me want to mimic that. Great work Tomas, that wasn't vain !!!

What really gets me about this song is that I learn something new about it every time I hear it. It seems like a simple song at first, especially to my non-musician friends, but there is so much music there to take in.

I love how Tomas composes songs on his computer without knowing if it's even humanly possible to achieve that skill level in real life. He then proved that it's possible to play herta with your feet after spending months learning the technique.

the thing is, like my friend, who can do most lead playing, doesn't enjoy it, he actually does enjoy laying and mastering just rhythm guitar playing

the drummer i've been tudoring had been feeling cocky lately. so i gave him this song as homework. told him to take it 1 minute at a time week one: came back with a chip on his shoulder week two: came back frustrated, but after i showed him that it would be easier to carry the upbeat by switching his drive from his right to his left foot, walked out with a new chip on his shoulder week three: came in with tears in his eyes. "i can't do it. i just can't....."

Seems like such a grounded man, very humble. But as an onlooker what he did with this song made waves across the drumming community. Mike Mangini played this pattern in a solo in 1997, but Tomas made it HIS with this song. Respect to the man!
