German for "shape decomposition" or Gestalt decomposition", is a type of visual agnosia and is a psychological phenomenon where delays in recognition are observed when a complex shape is stared at for a while as the shape seems to decompose into its constituting parts. In plain terms, if a subject reads or hears the same term over and over, that term ceases to have any meaning.

Holy shit, that's what this means? I have a memory of dissociative-ly staring at a toy firetruck for like 20 minutes when I was like 7 years old (heavy boredom I guess..? Haha.) and it just stopped making sense spatially/contextually as a firetruck to my brain for a couple of minutes - was just this strange red, black and white form that I stopped understanding. It's probably happened a couple of times since, but never so intensely. Never knew it was a phenomenon. Thanks for the definition!

How does staring at a funky physical shape until realizing that it's made up of many parts, have *anything* related to hearing a term over and over again til' it loses meaning?..

Before the outro riff, it felt like they realized they had 500 more notes to play in under 30 seconds.

My favorite one of the album. It incorporates all their styles throughout the years, from their self titled album contained in the bridge, the joy of motionesque intro (woven web style herta), the fresh guitar sounds of madness of many and the electronic drum elements of Weightless. 🤗

This album is becoming one of my favorites of all time, truly a masterpiece

I saw them perform this live last night, you felt a blast from the breakdown at 2:53 like it was like getting body slammed by music and emotions, same thing for the slow thumping part in physical education I felt a sonic boom. Seeing animals as leaders was a beautiful experience then Devin Townsend came out and kicked ass too.

4:06 makes me feel I am in the middle of a cyclone, like if its glory is being bestow to me.
