	Meshuggah // Bands // Lambgoat
		After some line-up shuffling, Meshuggah would then record its 1994 EP, "None." Members of the band would suffer through some physical accidents (torn off fingers and mangled hands), causing the unit to lay low.
		BIOGRAPHICAL DATA: Formed in 1987, Sweden's Meshuggah released its debut EP in 1989.
		Meshuggah would then produce several more releases, with "The True Human Design" in 1997, a reissue of "Contradictions Collapse & None" (1998), 1998's "Chaosphere," a collection of rare tracks in 2001, and the full-length "Nothing" in 2002.

	Meshuggah - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Meshuggah was formed in Umeå in 1987; two years later, the band released their first record, an EP entitled Psykisk Testbild (which can be roughly translated as "psychological test picture", perhaps in reference to a Rorschach Test image).
		Meshuggah is the favorite metal band of Steven Wilson of Porcupine Tree and Blackfield fame and co-producer of several albums by the Swedish progressive death metal band Opeth.
		Meshuggah, whose name is taken from the Hebrew and Yiddish word for "crazy," is a five-piece math metal band from Umeå, Sweden who use extended polymetric passages, complex drum patterns, odd time signatures, angular, dissonant guitar riffs, and harsh, non-pitched vocals.

	Meshuggah?
		Most people involved in the genre are aware that Meshuggah have become synonymous with a new, painfully repetitive, but unerringly accurate form of progression in extreme music, that leaves most of even their most technical contempories in the dust.
		As the centerpiece of Meshuggah's integral rhythms, not much more need be said, except that for his hard work this was voted one of the top 5 recorded drum performances this year by Modern Drummer readers.
		Whilst their previous release, "Nothing", was a brutal, tortuous and extremely uncommercial grind through doom-like soundscapes that disgusted and infuriated as many as it revealed wonders to others, this 21 minute single song EP takes a much different route to the same aim.

	Meshuggah : Catch Thirty-Three - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		That's because, for all of the justified acclaim at having established a wholly unique and instantly recognizable sonic imprint, Meshuggah's recent efforts had started to seem a little tired and repetitive, leading some critics to accuse the band of treading water in a progressive death metal pool of its own creation.
		Though they probably never intended it to, Meshuggah's 2004 EP I -- featuring a single 21-minute song -- helped open new possibilities at a crucial career juncture for the long-heralded Swedish originals.
		Because Meshuggah is more popular in Europe than America, they are often overlooked in the hardcore scene, but they truly are some of the most talented musicians in the world.

	KNAC.COM - Features - Kerby sits with Meshuggah
		Formed in 1987, Meshuggah has been producing their own version of death metal for about fifteen years now during which time they have produced six albums and three EP’s.
		Meshuggah definitely tend to be more chromatic/experimental sounding, while Pantera has a great classic 70's rock/blues feel to their sound (some of their stuff anyway).
		Of course, the backbone of Meshuggah’s intricate attack is drummer Tomas Haake who recently sat down to discuss the band’s past, present and future in metal.

	Official Ticketmaster site. Meshuggah tickets, dates
		In 1997 Meshuggah returned with The True Human Design EP; that same year, Thordendal's side project, Special Defects, released their LP Sol Niger Within.
		Meshuggah reunited for 1998's Chaosphere, a thunderous album that was unbearably dense in its songwriting and scope.
		The roots of Swedish metal band Meshuggah were planted in 1985; originally named Metallien, the founding line-up included frontman Roger Olofsson, guitarists Peder Gustafsson and Fredrik Tordendahl, bassist Janne Wiklund and drummer Ã—rjan Lundmark.

	Meshuggah - I Review - sputnikmusic
		Following on from their success in 2002 with "Nothing" this year see's Meshuggah releasing a one song EP named "I" before releasing a full length album later in the year.
		Again stopping, the first volley of screams begin beneath a riff that has been identified on the Meshuggah boards at more than 200/16 (we are still trying to tab it the entire song).
		This is the most extreme Meshuggah release, it has some really fast parts and some really slooooow parts.

	CoC : Meshuggah - Chaosphere : Review
		The latest offering by Meshuggah finds the band pedal to the metal with some of the most abrasive and truly downright barbs of anger this year.
		This is too heavy to understand and, like other Meshuggah LPs, there is a lot going on.
		If there was any band out there that had a new record on my most eagerly anticipated releases list, it had to be Sweden's industrial/metal-fusion monsters Meshuggah.

	Extended play - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Meshuggah released a single track 22 minute EP, "I", comprised of a set of sections that could easily be categorised as indivdual tracks or or simply different parts of a very complex song.
		For example, EPs are usually released as a promo or as a method for an artist to release a collection of songs unfit for an album.
		Using the term EP in such cases would be considered technically incorrect, as they were not "extended", and the term "7 inch" became a standard.

		The Chariot will soon be posting some new material from their upcoming "Unsung" EP online, for now, the track listing for the outing, which features two new songs alongside a number of reworked tracks and some live DVD footage, is as follows:

		I, Meshuggah’s latest EP is a bit of a sneak preview of what is to come from their forthcoming album Catch 33.
		After the release of Contradictions guitarist Marten Hagstrom joined Meshuggah as their rhythm guitarist (Before Marten, Jens Kidman was Meshuggah’s vocalist/rhythm guitarist.) Since then the band has released three more full length albums, including their 1995 opus Destroy Erase Improve.
		In 1991 Meshuggah signed to Nuclear Blast Records, Tomas Haake signed on as the band’s drummer, and they released their debut album Contradictions Collapse.

	Music : None
		Stepping away from the thrash and embracing math and technicality, Meshuggah delivers one of the most impressive ep's to ever be released.
		However, this disc is definitely worth the price to Meshuggah fans insearch of Aztec Two-Step.
		I'm quite certain that if you're buying this you already own the first four tracks from the re-release of Contradictions Collapse and we all know that they document Meshuggah's movement away from the Contradictions Collapse style and more towards the DEI and Chaospere style.

	Amazon.com: Music: Catch Thirty-Three
		Catch 33 shows a conceptual depth beyond the first 4 LPs but similar to the "I" EP and slightly short of the utter genius of "Sol Niger (Dark Sun) Within" (Thordendal's side project, which is absolutely sublime.) The engineering on Catch 33 also sounds better overall (especially for the car) than other Meshuggah.
		Catch Thirty-Three has already drawn some criticism from fans concerned about its departures from Meshuggah's norm, but these people may be missing the point.
		Unlike Meshuggah's previous three albums, on which each song was a distinctive, fully-realized classic in its own right, Catch Thirty-Three is essentially one extended mood piece broken up into 13 parts.

		"None“ and the classic EP "Selfcaged“ were next, but it wasn`t until 1995 and MESHUGGAH`S masterpiece album "Destroy Erase Improve“ that almost the whole metal scene stood up in amazement and faced this incredible new force coming from Sweden.
		In 1991, a broader audience took notice of a monster called MESHUGGAH when the self-titled debut mini-LP was released, shortly after followed by debut album "Contradictions Collapse“.

		Meshuggah followed up Destroy, Erase, Improve with the EP True Human Design.
		A two-month European tour with Machine Head established Meshuggah as a live presence, and two separate tours later that fall (with Clawfinger and Hypocrisy respectfully) solidified their superiority.
		The band followed up Contradictions Collapse with two EPs (None and the now out-of-print Selfcaged), but it wasn’t until the release of Destroy, Erase, Improve (the infamous album that Jack Osbourne assaulted his neighbors with in an episode of The Osbournes) that the world stood up and took notice.

		Last week, Estradasphere's new EP, "The Silent Elk of Yesterday" came out, so I figured I'd put this interview from last summer back up.
		TIM: listening to Taraf de Haidouks, classical persian and middle east music, anything using Just intonation, Ethiopian funk/soul of the 60's and 70's, indian music, greek dances, hun huur tu, meshuggah, mr bungle, BEACH BOYS, Passions, Days of Our Lives.
		KING AMERICA: Don Salsa has a much rougher sound in comparison to Estradasphere, in fact, it almost sounds like the different sections are pasted together, and not played through, is this on purpose, either way it floats my fuckin' boat.

		After DEI Meshuggah went on tour with Machine Head, during this 47 show tour Bass player Peter Nordin fell ill and later decided to leave Meshuggah, he was replaced by Gustaf Hielm who first played as a stand in but he is now a full time cp member.
		First release, the 1989 self titled or "Psykisk testbild" EP, showed a promising approach, sounding "early mid metallica" and putting Meshuggah on the underground metal music map forever.
		Formed in the city of Umeå in1987,where the band members had a good environment to develop their own style, having a strong jazz scene the city were the perfect platform for Meshuggah& style to emerge.

	Meshuggah : Catch Thirty-Three - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		That's because, for all of the justified acclaim at having established a wholly unique and instantly recognizable sonic imprint, Meshuggah's recent efforts had started to seem a little tired and repetitive, leading some critics to accuse the band of treading water in a progressive death metal pool of its own creation.
		Fair assumption or not, the group wisely decided to replicate and extend that single-song strategy on 2005's appropriately named Catch Thirty-Three; although the reality that its virtually nonstop 47 minutes are in fact broken down into 13 sections could also be viewed as a not so elaborate ruse to disguise just another, typical Meshuggah LP.
		Though they probably never intended it to, Meshuggah's 2004 EP I -- featuring a single 21-minute song -- helped open new possibilities at a crucial career juncture for the long-heralded Swedish originals.

	Catch Thirty-Three by Meshuggah CD
		I admit, I didn't like this album at first, because I expected this album to pick up where their one-song EP 'I' left off, and felt that this was too slow and repetitive.
		This is a very bizarre Meshuggah album, and metal album in general; it flows as one long, continuous song broken down into 13 songs.
		"Mind's Mirrors" is the weirdest song on the album, as it starts out with a metal riff that comes to a crashing halt, and then followed up by a robotic vocal style unlike anything I've ever heard before.

		While the distance between Nothing and Catch Thirty-Three was interrupted with the band's 2004-released EP I, which comprised of a single, 21:00 sonic assault of a song that truly pushed the envelope of Meshuggah's trademark technical metal sound.
		Swedish [math] metal machine Meshuggah's (ooh, alliteration++) 2005 release, Catch Thirty-Three, is the latest album from the band, approximately three years after the album Nothing, released in 2002.
		The album's main riffs can get a bit repetitive at times, especially when they carry over to two or three songs.

	THE METAL OBSERVER - Review - MESHUGGAH - None EP
		The musicianship is probably the most Progressive ever to be shown on a MESHUGGAH release, there’s lots of time changes between harmonic clean guitars and programmed riffing, I suspect this EP being the bands transition from man to machine (see my “Chaosphere” and “Contradiction Collapse” reviews).
		I chose to do “Contradictions Collapse” and this EP separately, even if they’re together on the same release, to give a more focused and singular view on both instead of giving you a cheap “sum up” kind of review.
		Note: The absence of the track “Aztec Two-Step” is because of the reissue of “Contradictions Collapse” containing this EP minus that track.

		Lundgren left the band and was replaced by Tomas Haake, in 1991 the LP "Contradictions collapse" took over were metallica should have gone after "justice".
		The songs displayed a playing technique and diversity so far unheard of, unfortunately not promoted by the record company, it never sold good and not until the following mini CD "NONE" in 94 did Meshuggah get the attention deserved.

		Tomas Haake joined on drums before Meshuggah recorded their first LP, "Contradictions Collapse," which was released in 1991.
		The music of this EP is simpler and more straight-forward" than their more recent material, but some of their more progressive elements are present in the form of time-changes and polyrhythmics, and Fredrik Thordendal´s lead playing stands out.
		In February, "Nuclear Blast" released the repackaged "Contradictions Collapse" album, with four tracks off of "None" added.
