| Meshuggah Ranked
This list is going to be unpopular...but oh, well. | | 1 |  | Meshuggah Catch Thirtythree
Now, I know for a lot of reasons people consider this to be one of the weaker tracks on the album but I will
never understand that. It takes patience to listen to, yes, but all classics take a lot of investment to be
fully appreciated. This album takes it's time crawling under your skin by holding onto repeating riffs for a
longer duration of time than they usually do, as well as its use of silent sections (Minds Mirrors/In Death is
Death). But I feel that this is Meshuggah at their most lyrically intelligent. It also has the scariest
atmosphere that I have ever heard on any album. I love this album so much that I'm actually finding it
difficult to explain it's awesomeness: I am finished ranting.....now. | | 2 |  | Meshuggah Koloss
Their newest album and in my opinion, the greatest summary of their entire career. The opener is as
groovy as anything off Nothing. Break Those Bones Whose Sinews Gave It Motion is a very atmospheric
slow builder like Catch 33. The Hurt That Finds You and Marrow sound like Chaosphere and DEI days, etc.
etc. This album has everything. | | 3 |  | Meshuggah Nothing
GROOVES! THE GROOVESSSSSS | | 4 |  | Meshuggah ObZen
This has my favorite individual songs by Meshuggah: Pravus, Bleed, and Dancers to a Discordant System.
It can be a bit rough to listen to the album as a whole on multiple listens, but that is just because it is so
goddamn intense. | | 5 |  | Meshuggah Chaosphere
Insanity in an album. Even though this is number 5 out of 7, I still love this more than most. It's
just...crazy. | | 6 |  | Meshuggah Destroy Erase Improve
Everyone seems to think that this is among their best releases except me. Maybe I'm bias because I
prefer progressive/experimental music to thrash/industrial or whatever this is considered to be. This is still
a very good album, but for Meshuggah standards its sort of lacking a distinct voice that they find in their
next album. | | 7 |  | Meshuggah Contradictions Collapse
Cool stuff. Unfortunately, this is the most forgettable out of their entire discography. Too much Metallica
in this album. | |

03.30.12 | Apologies for any spelling, grammar, or other errors in the description section. I'm too drunk to edit/reread any of that. | KjSwantko
03.30.12 | omg | KILL
03.30.12 | omfg dei | KjSwantko
03.30.12 | I knwo right | DarkSideOfLucca
03.30.12 | Eh. I knew that would be an unpopular opinion. I dunno dudes, I just prefer their later material much more :/ I think it's a lot tighter, more original, etc. | MO
03.30.12 | yea dei should be 3rd, 3 is 1, 1 is 2 | KjSwantko
03.30.12 | MO knows what's up | Dryden
03.30.12 | band sucks | Yazz_Flute
03.30.12 | ObZen
Koloss
Destroy Erase Improve
Catch-33
Chaosphere
Nothing
Contradictions Collapse | DarkSideOfLucca
03.30.12 | ^ That's a pretty sick list, Yazz. The weird thing about Meshuggah, is that unlike most bands, every single one of their albums (minus Contradictions Collapse) is insanely close in quality. Obviously in my opinion. | Wheelah
03.30.12 | I feel like DEI is above obZen in this list, though everything else is pretty much right. And I agree about Catch Thirty Thr33, that is by far their best. It's an album you can completely get lost in, and it almost meshes with your consciousness. Just flat out astounding. But what track are you referencing in the description? | KILL
03.30.12 | dryden i will fight you | Dryden
03.30.12 | pillow fight | Relinquished
03.30.12 | me too
and something's wrong if you choose DIE than DEI | DarkSideOfLucca
03.30.12 | Oh wow, I just reread that. Yeah, like I said man, super drunk right now- what I meant is that a lot of people consider Catch 33 to be among their weakest. No particular song in mind. | KILL
03.30.12 | pillow fight but naked and we can use our boners as weapons | KjSwantko
03.30.12 | lol | DarkSideOfLucca
03.30.12 | ^ My boner is made of steel and fire. | KjSwantko
03.30.12 | why | DarkSideOfLucca
03.30.12 | It's just the way shit is. | taylormemer
03.30.12 | I (the most incredible mind fuck ever released)
Catch Thirtythree (NOT FUCKING THIRTYTHR33 RETARDS)
Koloss
DEI
Nothing [Re-recording]
obZen
Chaosphere
Contradictions Collapse
But this changes for me regularly (except for 1 and 2), so it's kind of redundant.
| sumyunguy
03.30.12 | Holy shit, switch 2 and 3 and you have my order exactly! All Hail Catch 33! | FearThyEvil
03.30.12 | Chaosphere is 1 for me. | Tyrannic
03.30.12 | Pravus is my favorite off obzen, that opening riff is massive | ILJ
03.30.12 | Catch Thirtythree is so overrated. | Foaming
03.31.12 | No it's not. | cagedescending
04.29.12 | I actually agree with this list almost 100%. I'd just put DEI in between Koloss and Nothing. Dunno where I'd chuck in I, need to listen to it more.
c33 recently clicked with me, hard | conesmoke
04.29.12 | 1: Catch Thirtythree
2: Nothing
3: Obzen | conesmoke
04.29.12 | but for me, 1 & 2 are pretty much equal in overall awesomeness |
