grimes
Something extraordinarily-complex, that's both beautiful and brutal, that normies won't get.
Primer.
I read an interview with them in guitar world once. Apparently they write music before they even know if it's humanly possible to play it and it just forces them to get better. I've only heard a few of their songs off their 2008 album so I don't know what to compare them too. I should probably listen to them again
metal is for children

Obzen
Koloss

i like metal because it has a high ceiling, as far as genres go
there is potential to write great songs within the confines of metal

Come on man
Chaosphere
Destroy Erase Improve
Catch Thirty Three (their best)
Koloss would be great if they didn't fuck up the mastering so badly

agreed. but I think the stuff I posted is a good way to ease into the band.

maybe hard to be a god or some other russian flick, like cargo 200
Because women don't get either

A band that did its own thing and has been copied a lot by other bands (and by themselves, considering half of their albums sound exactly the same, and most of the songs on said albums also sound alike), and while somewhat unusual and complex, they're not THAT out there and their fans are insufferable and greatly overstate the band's complexity?
A slightly more unusual Tarantino, I guess. Although Tarantino has more diversity in his filmography than 'Shuggah has in its discography.
Meshuggah as the Tarantino of music seems fitting.

Calm down now. It's not that crazy in the greater musical scheme of things and Meshuggah is normie metal just a tier below Metallica and Maiden in accessibility.
What do the Meshuggah fans ITT think of these?

This might seem kind of smug because of the rest of my post, but I'm genuinely wondering what you think.

I initially didn't like them but now love their shit. So many good, heavy ass songs.
Oy Vey, I would say the fine films of Woody Allen are quite Meshuggah
Kubrick is the closest I think, something like 2001
Something cold, emotion-less, mechanical and extremely controlled but also beautiful
