I kinda remember people dumping on born in dissonance when this came out but man... it fucking crushes. That slow breakdown and then the fill going into the solo section got dayum

I think I waffled about this a few years ago on a previous page, but the way the guitar solos are structured on this record is beyond bonkers -- Thordendal outdid himself here

Makes me sad thinking about how these guys probably only got one maybe two albums left in them. Probably not too many more tours either before they hang it up

Saw the repeated comments and decided to jam this again...



Sadly, it's exactly as I remembered it, second to last in Meshuggah discog, where last is Contradictions Collapse, a good album in its own right.

"I kinda remember people dumping on born in dissonance when this came out but man... it fucking crushes. "



Honestly, the first time I heard it I was one of those people. Jens vocals seems to crack at a couple of points, and really I prefer that song live - it's one of my favorite live tracks because Jens usually sounds more menacing there and because that riff + live sound studio sounds absolutely fucking crushing.



But yeah, I definitely like it way more now than when I first heard it.
