Product Description

CD Description
After repeatedly raising the bar for metal bands everywhere, Meshuggah goes slightly experimental on CATCH THIRTY-THREE, the respected Swedish outfit's 2005 release. Meshuggah keeps intact its propensity for the pummeling riffs, demonic vocals, and complex polyrhythms that have compelled massive crowds to headbang in 7/4 time. But the band displays a new direction here, utilising relentless repetition and atmospheric guitars to create a hypnotic opus that borders on industrial music.
CATCH THIRTY-THREE unfolds more like a symphonyin 13 parts than a metal album, as movements bleed into each other forming a perfect arc of structured chaos, strewn with darker, ambient interludes ("In Death - Is Death"). Thematically, frontman Jens Kidman's struggle with physical and spiritual confinement continues, as he describes "the struggle to free myself of restraints" on "Disenchantment". On the album's finest track, "The Paradoxical Spiral", a tightly strummed guitar drone gives way to powerhouse bass and drums, breaking open the doors for Kidman's guttural declarations. Three songs later, the rampage continues with such heft and precision that one can only sit back in awe.

5.0 out of 5 stars Masterpiece, 12 May 2006
By Gustav (Toronto Canada) - See all my reviews


Simple materials, sonic extremes, perfectly rendered, surpassingly brilliant.

The purity + focus + humility of these guys is truly impressive. I listen to this album sometimes more than once a day. There is nothing else like it - not even by them. There are other brilliant sounds out there but this band is always at the top of my list.

This music demands your close attention. Once you have really "learned" it, it begins to reward many repeat listens. Hundreds of listens later, it still yields fresh stuff to my ears. Fascinating and ingenious. It ought to be a bridge to practioners of all kinds of serious music.

5.0 out of 5 stars reaching for the inner bright, 3 Nov 2005
By A Customer
this cd is fantastic. simply put, its the most original & thought provoking metal album in years. meshuggah really do have something no other band have, you either love them or hate them. ive played this CD to people who are into their metal and theyve hated it, ive played it to people who arent into metal and theyve loved it.

the cost of this album is irelevant, it is a masterpiece of composition and execution, and will blow you away. listen to the riff on track 8 and if you can honestly say meshuggah suck after that, you dont deserve the gift of hearing

5.0 out of 5 stars Pure Structured Insanity once more!, 19 Jun 2005
By D. R. Silvester "Clandestine Knowledge Seeker" (Birmingham, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I understand death metal on a intuitive rather than logical basis, so this is as basic as it gets...

As usual these geniuses/madmen have created an album that defies adequate description. Suffice to say no-one sounds remotely like Meshuggah, something unusual in the death metal world. The album sounds to me as if it is evolving & becoming more complex as it progresses. If you are a fan of technical death then these guys are your ticket!

There is just so much going on (tempo/timing shifts) & as usual these nutcases are striving to take your sanity, warp and shatter it!

If you already like Meshuggah you most likely will love this, if you're new I'd suggest you listen to samples first & see what you're getting yourself into. Meshuggah are highly original, super technical, aggressive but very, very different from 'normal' death metal. They are a total anomaly, albeit in a very positive sense.

If this album does appeal check out Chaosphere.
