Meshuggah Album: “Contradictions Collapse”

Meshuggah Album: “Contradictions Collapse”
Description :
While Sweden's monolithic Meshuggah are better known these days as a mind-melting unit of austere, calculus-metal polyrhythmic destruction, their debut album, CONTRADICTIONS COLLAPSE, shows them still figuring out the equation and hewing closer to thrash orthodoxy. Their skill is certainly apparent in knotty thrash epics like "Erroneous Manipulation" and the caustic "Greed," with popping, surprisingly funky bass and shifting rhythms reminiscent of Anthrax's best material. But they really start to sound like the scraping, precise machine they'd eventually become on later tracks like "Sickening" and "Gods of Rapture."

- Old School Meshuggah

Great album. Really it's a full length album and an EP on 1 disk. Must have for any Meshuggah fan. It is good even as an introduction to Meshuggah for fans of other types of metal. Newer albums like obZen may be too "harsh" or "extreme" for some. Like all Meshuggah tunes much of the CD is very "math metal" oriented but this disk is more likely to please the thrash/groove inclined metal heads. It also has some extremely jazz-infused moments. Highly recommended. I might have given it five stars but I reserve that for my most favorite items.
