It's so catchy, but yeah. Ivory Tower might be my least favorite, which is weird because Ivory Tower rules.

Well yeah because other bands take the fundamental elements of Meshuggah's sound and combine it with other things. The primary characteristic of djent is the low, palm-muted, syncopated riffs, and these guys were basically the inventors of that.

Oh I see. I have to say that I definitely prefer Meshuggah over Periphery and Veil of Maya, which I don't particularly like

Djent was invented by bands that can't play like Meshuggah.

Awesome review. IMO they finally found the missing piece of their puzzle by recording live as a band. The resulting chemistry gives this record that extra little something i always felt thw band lacked in spite of their vrilliance. Pos'd g
