Meshuggah

   Hi 

I've been listening to Meshuggah for a while, and what can I say?

It's not the genre I'd recommend to easy-listening, progheaded, 

puritane guys, but if you feel some day in the mood to be schizoid,

like when you're keen in having a go with KC and its 21st century, then
Meshuggah, a more extreme, heavier and cacophonic version, is

your group. Yet,  I never feel that way, so I hardly  put it on and 

sit down to enjoy its music. Though I'm personally interested in any
sort of experimentation, this group goes a bit further, its a kind of
threshold between the music you could always listen to and that you

need to mentally prepare yourself before listening to.

A friend of mine introduced me to Meshuggah last year, and he's 

really into the "scandinavian" melancholy, leading towards
"self-suicide" and antisociality. So, to cut the story short, 
Meshuggah 

is a great band if you tough enough to survive.

	My opinion of Meshuggah is that their music is awful. But i can appriciate their musicianship.
