I thought the programmed drumming was great on this album... then again I am a huge fan of what can be done with drum machines and programming.

Believe it or not, this was actually my very first metal album.. As you probably guessed, I didn't know jack shit about any metal back then, but this album jumped out at me in how it was different than anything else I'd ever heard. Even now, after sampling almost every different type of metal, it still strikes me as odd. It took me a bit to get used to the sound, but after giving it several listens, I really started to love this band. There's few other bands, if any, out there that kick ass and play hard like Meshuggah.
By the way, "meshuggah" is the Yiddish/Hebrew word for "crazy".

The drumming is definately not 4/4. And they didn't program the drums because of lack of time, they wanted to do it that way.
Awesome album.

I heard they did. Because Haake was too busy with his other projects. He programmed drumms on his own made program "Drumkit from hell".Satanstoenail said:

Well I listened to this for my first time today. So far I'm not impressed but I heard from others this is supposed to grow on me. I hope they are right.

I would say - you might not like them at all, but still be impressed by their stuff. Cause their music is close to something fucking unbelievable...Blue_Jay said:
Meshuggah needs time to get into them. Nobody says you're gonna like them at last though.

Indeed, there is a chance of a great payoff, but no guarentees. Especially this album. This is one of the more difficult to get, in my opinion.
4/4? yeah, its kind of. Meshuggah actually play in multiple sigs at once, and usually 4/4 is one of them. It makes it possible to keep together on some of the crazier stuff.

I was focusing more on the fact that I discovered metal through this instead of the usual nu-metal/metalcore phase that most go through, but whatever.

Listened to it a 2nd time. I liked all of the album a little more now but I struggle in the In Death Is Death part of the album.
