I would say destroy erase imrove or chaosphere. Chaosphere was a absolute mind melting experience my first time through as I was almost completely new to the odd time signature feel. Chaosphere combines a subtle amount of weird feels, groove, and fucking chaos. This album was revolutionary for my music taste and journey. But DEI is just a classic you can’t miss

The new remaster is based off orange Nothing. From my ears it sounds like the bass and background ambient guitars are brought more forward in the mix. This helps the guitars sound almost like the 8 strings in blue nothing. Jens' vocals are also more smoothed around the edges but he still sounds super raw and loud. Overall I would say it's a true orange remaster than a re-record like with blue

Love your Meshuggah reactions! The perfect amount of time spent reflecting and listening and you can really tell you feel the groove with them. Btw, you should check out Vildhjarta another great pioneer of Sweden. Specifically their new album Masstaden Under Vatten is something else!

I’ve been a fan of Meshuggah for about a year and a half now, and have completely obsessed over them this entire time, and learned to love them more and more; it’s really neat watching someone else kind of go through that process as well, especially this personally. Love your videos! Nothing is actually one of their albums that hasn’t really hit me yet as much as the others. I find it tough sometimes getting into the songs when the rhythms are so difficult to parse…. but once I do they absolutely wallop me. Anyways loved the video, hope to see more soon!

I had only heard popular tracks like Bleed and Demiurge and some bits here and there but the opening riff to Nebulous sent me on a Meshuggah frenzy when I first heard it a while back. Organic Shadows is a genuinely solid track too imo so do give that one another listen! Big fan of the full album format personally, really enjoyed your TesseracT album reactions as well and you're absolutely right about the music making more sense in context of an album especially with a rigorous band like Meshuggah. Chaosphere is Nothing's predecessor and is an absolute classic as well but The Violent Sleep of Reason would also be a good one to do before Immutable.

YEEESSSS WE NEED MORE OF THESE

Oh my god.. dude when I saw this I literally had to immediately stop what I was doing and throw on head phones. Thank you So much for reacting to the album.. THE ENTIRE ALBUM!

Yay! 🤙🏻 Such a great album. It holds a special place in my heart because I saw them live for the first time when they where on their Nothing tour, they opened up with Stengah and it blew the roof off! 🤘🏻🔥 I was lucky and managed to get my hands on their setlist after the show! What a day! 🙏🏻Best band ever.

Welcome to my Junior year of high School back in '02 this album was on repeat all the time! Great reaction and great Idea for a video. Can't wait for more!

Love jamming with you, Drew!

Violent Sleep > Btw, I do like the long form videos, glad you're doing them

This is a fun way I like to compare orange and blue versions. Imagine two scenarios. In one, you’re being chased by a cheetah, and when it catches up to you it’s going to use those big, sharp and nasty teeth and claws to tear you apart. That’s the orange version. In the second scenario, you’re being chased by something else, an elephant for example, and when it catches up to you it’s going to use it’s tusks to bore you through, and it’s going to stomp you to death. That’s the blue version. The orange version has faster tempos at times, and the sound is a little bit less weighty compared to the blue version. However, the drums are so much better in my opinion in the orange version, not just the playing but the sound of them as well, especially that snare. The guitars sound nastier somehow, and the vocals are superior. In the re-recorded version, the 8 string guitars match the tone of the bass so well that you can’t really hear it there, overall gives more weight and meat to the sound, but in the original version it’s a bit easier to tell guitar and bass apart, and I love that. I’ve greatly prefer the orange version. There’s just something about it for me that the blue doesn’t have. I love the reaction. Feels like I’m sitting here showing the album off to a friend who can really get down with it

You are doing really well Drew... Closed Eye Visuals didn't throw you off at all but you are starting to appreciate all the detail in their music. Love the content.

My first Meshuggah album!! I heard closed eyes visuals on an Ozzfest Sampler years ago.. First time I got to see them live they opened up with Obsidian and then went into Demiurge which is the live music video..

unrelated to meshuggah, but if you haven't done so i hope you do a reaction like this but with Periphery 1 and Periphery 2. love those guys so much, their albums are so much fun to go through and every couple of weeks i go down those badboys and just jam out, been a fan since they released their debut and you already know they slap too. the first 2 albums hit hella diff, they are so adventurous and badass, and its nice change from the pure demonic godly fuck-shit that meshuggah does

Thanks for this Drew! Been waiting for someone to react to "Closed Eye Visuals" for a long time, as I feel this is one of the BEST Meshuggah tracks in their entire catalogue. Top 5 for sure. I'm also glad you did the original master, because as thick as the guitars are in the remaster, the programmed drums don't hold a candle to the original drum tracks, especially the cymbals which just sound massive on the original. The original sounds great, unlike any other album in their discog. If they had done a legit remaster instead of programmed drums, I might take it seriously, but as it is, it's just a throwaway for me.

tesseract and meshuggah!! both so similar and so different at the same time!! man i love djent so much!! so glad to watch and listent with you!! keep it up man!!

Closed Eye Visuals is a definite banger. Prob my fav Meshuggah album, IDK they're all so good.

Props for going with the original mix, one of their absolute best albums

Fuck, you should react to full albums more often dude! I really enjoyed this. Btw i think it's time for you to listen to Vildhjarta! The best djent band ever alongside Meshuggah if you ask me, Dagger and/or Deceit would be perfect songs to start off

More Meshuggah? Let's go. You seem pretty comfortable with most of Mehsuggah now so you should definitely check out Vildhjarta - masstaden under vatten. This band blew me away the same way Meshuggah did when I first heard them. Their music is of course inspired by Meshuggah but instead of just low djent chugs they weave short melodic runs in between these chugs and it's super sick. While Meshuggah has more of a trance like mechanical feel, Vildhjarta sounds more organic and one of the band members describe their music as "elastic" which I honestly don't know what that means but it does describe it perfectly. And they also have many songs that go as low as Spasm as well.

Guitars on Spasm were tuned down to a Low-low A#, basically an octave and a half step lower than the lowest note on a 7string.

Awesome

Love this reaction, too. :) I agree that Glints Collide isn't the strongest on the album, but this one, like others in their discography, is so full of bangers. Stengah, Straws Pulled at Random, and Nebulous are likely my 3 favourite songs, but really they are just a killer band. I hope you do Chaosphere and Destroy Erase Improve in time, because I'll definitely watch them.

Hi man, I'm french, 46, and obviously a huge fan of Meshuggah, and this since The "None" EP, just before the legendary "Destroy, Erase, Improve" album. I've listened to the differents opinions you received about the two diffrent versions of the "Nothing" album. Let me tell you my opinion, the first one is the best. That said, they have always been pioneers : 8 strings gtrs, hardware amp simulation (line6 ), close collaboration with Toontrack (easy drummer & superior drummer, Drums virtual instrument) and steinberg (Cubase, Nuendo... the fathers of the computer musical sequencer), and I'm pretty sure I forget many tings... And because Everybody is programming today, they decided for the last album to return to the basics : real recording. PS : sorry for my bad english...

im not very well today.. but watching u doing full reaction to this album make me cry..

Concatenation!!

Straws has one of the most beautiful yet simplest solos fred has ever laid down...the way it flows...it feels like you're moving thru outer space...that segment of the song is a tearjerker..so much sorrow in it...

Same here, and it's extremely fun to play on guitar too.

The misheard lyric from this album that I always heard just on my own is in Stengah he says "You eat a nice Orange" at some point lol. I can't be bothered finding the timestamp haha

Here's my take on the "which album is better" to me. Just my personal opinion, but here it goes. Original: Drums are better but the guitar production/mix/clarity is worse. Re-recording: Drums are worse (because they're programmed) but the guitar production is better. I personally prefer the original because it's way more raw and there's WAY more nuance in the drums because they're recorded live by Haake but when I'm playing guitar along to the record, I do it to the re-recorded album because the guitars are produced, and sound, much better. They sound different because the original recording was on 7 strings down-tuned to F standard (the 8 string tuning Meshuggah uses) and the re-recorded record was done with proper 8 strings in F, but the re-recording has programmed drums, not real studio drums like the original recording of Nothing does. In truth, I think the perfect Nothing record would be a mix of both with the original recording's drum track and the re-recording's guitars, but overall, even as a guitarist myself, I prefer listening to the original version due to how raw it is (because they did it live in the studio and edited very little of it due to time constraints). That said, I understand that the re-recording is more in line with what the band truly really wanted it to sound like but weren't able to originally due to said constraints, and I appreciate that, given the re-recorded Nothing's mix is more consistent with the rest of the following albums. That said, I'm still always going to have a soft spot for the original recording and mix. Either way, they're both awesome in their own ways and it's great to see someone hear this record, in either form, for the first time, and really take it all in. Brings me back to my high school days hearing this record for the first time and being absolutely bamboozled hahaha

If you're still seeing Meshuggah live then you have to hear one of their nastiest tracks: I Am Colossus 🤘

I don’t know if anybody has told you already. But In Spasm, Deshumanization, Dancers to a discordant system, and many other songs. That voice is actually Tomas. Not Jens. 😉😉😉😉😉

If you think this album is ahead of it's time you should listen to Chaosphere on its entirety, seriously, no other album sounded like that back in 1998. Also it was the last album Jens recorded before changed his style into what we know today, it had a little bit more of his actual natural voice so you could hear some notes, I love both styles BTW.

Good videos man ! IMO all albums should be played as a whole album until you know all the little secret of the songs. When it's done you can shuffle your playlist 😅.

Hope you will make reaction on Defect Noises

32:15 I absolutely love Jens voice in the 90s. Especially Chaosphere. he definitely changed it up on this album, but he was smart for doing so, because now he has a sound and technique he can hang on to and keep going with for years. It prevents Meshuggah from getting stuck in a position where they cant play as heavy as they used to because of a softer vocal style. They can stay full Meshuggah until the end at this point thanks to Jens and his style. Having said that....Chaosphere man. He destroys his voice on that album and it sounds so good. You gotta do it. Such an important and bold album for 1998. Chaosphere all the way into Catch 33 is just legendary and timeless and damn near perfect to me. Thanks for the awesome reactions man!

Would you listen to a band that sounds and most importantly FEELS like Meshuggah? I'm really trying to get that feeling and sound with my music because I love Meshuggah so much and want to be at least like them, because there's only one MESHUGGAH.
