03.15.22 | what are our thoughts on Meshuggah alternatives Car Bomb and Frontierer? Are there other bands doing it better? How is it that the genre coined for Meshuggah's sound sounds nothing like Meshuggah at large? |
zaruyache
03.15.22 | because it was mostly periphery that made djent a thing, not directly meshuggah--which is why djent hails more from metalcore than tech metal, generally. |

I actually thought there'd be more alternatives to Meshuggah tbh, some you mentioned like Car Bomb and Frontierer, others are Vildhjarta. But generally, there are a lot more alternatives of Periphery than they are of Meshuggah, which I find surprising. |

03.15.22 | harder to copy quality tbh |
Tundra
03.15.22 | "stay delusional bro"
I like Clockworks, Bleed, Demiurge, Rational Gaze, New Millennium, Combustion. Pretty much everything else is mid. |
Tundra
03.15.22 | "harder to copy quality tbh"
Meshuggah is just djent riffs and screaming, you don't even have to know how to solo, just do play some tappy shit and call it a day. How is that hard to copy? |
rellik009
03.15.22 | ah so you are completely delusional
very well
plus most of the albums you listed are mid and generic like idk man not really the best showcase and believe me i think djent kinda bangs. meshuggah is more engaging and creative than most of these bands by a landslide, like you are insanely dishonest in terms of how much credit they actually deserve. |

03.15.22 | i still find it hilarious that you had most shuggah albums at a 4 before and then you did a u-turn because ur feelings got hurt or whatever |
Tundra
03.15.22 | I like some Meshuggah songs, that should satisfy you tbh, but nah you just continue being butt hurt |
rellik009
03.15.22 | says the guy who had most shuggah albums at a 4 then decided to rate them down and give them an unfair judgement just because he got butthurt over some random comments criticizing his taste in (mid) music |
Tundra
03.15.22 | well I did that to appease people but then decided screw it there's only about 10 songs by them I'd actually listen to regularly |

03.18.22 | I was somewhat on board with tundra's nonsensical (if not mildly likeable) eschewing of meshuggah's music until about the 50th time he announced into the void that they are bad and that comically less substantial bands are better |

03.22.22 | I don't how much Tundra is trolling or not, but I unironically agree that Meshuggah doesn't really work for me outside of 10-ish songs.
I keep trying and trying cause I want to understand the hype behind them but still I don't get it. Two new singles have been mid af. |

They were innovative, heavy and hypnotic. But they just do what they do, forever more. Other than those plus points mentioned, I find them very often (mostly, really) robotic, repetitive and unemotional.
Taste is taste, there’s no real “getting it” beyond that. Those fully on-board, lap it up. Those not, never will. |

03.23.22 | one the points of meshuggah's music is that it is mechanical and cold lol
tbh though I agree that the two new singles are mid, shuggah needs to change their game more after their two last albums |

03.23.22 | “one the points of meshuggah's music is that it is mechanical and cold lol”
Not saying it isn’t, point is how much it resonates with the listener—which in my case, increasingly less so. |

03.23.22 | "Meshuggah is just djent riffs and screaming"
This is verbatim what Fantano thinks about Meshuggah, which is completely off target. This band is about the grooves and patterns, which includes the vocals as a component of it. This also explains why more people gravitate towards Periphery and company because their songwriting approach is 8-string riffs and melodies. |
