Lyrics:

Relentless and inexorable
This menacing creation
That we ourselves conceived
With covetous verve and credulity

Something this intensely profound
Can never be allowed
The fabric and all that holds it
will all burn. It will all be torn down

To contain it in its lair
Pandora's quantum prison
In wave after wave
It will see us fail

Consign to oblivion
This thing we cannot grasp
Bury deep this entity
Unlearn it ever existed

This is our omega. Factitious nemesis
The great dismantler of our dominion

If ever there was a reason
Maintain this greatest lie
That never did we look
into the abysmal eye

Meshuggah will always be my favourite jazz band.

[saedt]

The way Meshuggah rhythms twist and contort around the main riff is still such bliss to listen to.

[sneezydeezymcdeluxe]

Said it before and I'll say it again. I love the fact that this band never massively changed their sound or went soft. Every album has a distinctive sound to it, but each one is still heavy as fuck and you can tell it's Meshuggah. These guys literally just keep releasing awesome heavy shit and I hope that never changes.

[mcspiffington]

Its actually wild to me, that Meshuggah influeneced almost evey other band i listen to.
But they are still releasing shit that slaps harder than 90% of today's music.

[mikeycassidy]

The sound of cosmic horror, nothing comes close. I am in awe, hail Meshuggah!

[DrewFortune]

Wow, this is going to be insane

Edit: that was fucking insane

[adrianfuentes]

I love how Haake's snare sound has evolved through the years from a tight piccolo-like sound into a deep, fat-ass sniper shot

[jkxoxo]

This is probably the most brutal and yet sophisticated Metal song I've heard in years. I shed tears, I swear.

[maureenwagg]

I'm 61 years old and a relatively new fan of Meshuggah's. I checked out Bleed on the recommendation of Bill Burr. He's not wrong. Incredible band. Now I'm checking out more and more. New Mellenium Cyanide Christ is my fave track. Just incredibly soothing and relaxing to stick on headphones and let the music wash over you like a blanket of sound. I actually feel the tension of the day leave my body. Totally relaxing. These guys are the best therapy to a day of driving kids to school and putting up with dumb drivers all day.

[JayLamm]

Meshuggah isn't my favorite band but I do acknowledge that they are the greatest band on the planet.

[chroniclerPT]

Big budget occultist Meshuggah is the proper audiovisual concept that fits the world right now

[roquefortworm]

Thousands of lives sacrificed to summon the one and only

J E N S K I D M A N L I M I T E D E D I T I O N

[bicboi]

This is the production quality Meshuggah has deserved since D.E.I. 🔥

[jimdino]

I’m a casual metal fan and this album shocked the shit out of me.. never heard of Meshuggah, now I’m thoroughly impressed…. The musical direction is crazy. Like I was expecting a Metallica inspired solo near the end, but it remained monotonous which felt more chaotic…. Brilliant work

[torm]

10 years. I've been listening to them for 10 years. A Spotless discography. Every single album is a cut above the rest.

[bergamo]

years & years of nothing but quality music
Hail Meshuggah

[iBrew_u]

Can I get a round of applause for Tomas Haake 👏

[LeftyBassATL]

I am honestly crying with joy right now and my wife thinks I've lost my mind.

[justingray]

Coming down cold turkey from Methadone, sleeping aids, cigarettes and alcohol, I was not able to feel any emotions besides anxiety for almost 1 whole month.. Literally, nothing moved me. I became alive again when I heard 'Bleed'! I seriously think they brought me out of my depression. I will see them live this October. I hope to meet them 🤘
