Maybe the first minute or so could be qualified as easy to an experienced guitarist.

BUT, when they start changing it up after the first break it is not so easy.

I still want to see someone doing it, I mean I know its not impossible, I just HAVEN'T seen anyone playing that intro. And I still say its some of the fastest galloping I'VE heard. 230bpm is not to be scoffed at, it starts sounding fast and djenty at like 180 or 190, alot of Fear Factory stuff is at that.

War


/THREAD

IMO best mesh song EVAR!!!shift1

What album is "War" from? I've never heard Meshuggah like that before! I checked their wikipedia and couldnt find what album it was on.

Call me a deviant, but as much as I love the Jaunty odd, angular albums like Nothing and Catch 33, "Combustion" from oBzen is still their best song. Relatively no messing, just pure fucking power and aggression. Blinding!

War is from Rare Trax I believe.

I love Combustion but Spasm from Nothing just destroys.

Yeah it is from Rare Trax i have it :p

Oh yeah i got one last question for you guys,

when i tap my loomis (go ahead make a thats what she said joke) on the high E string it keeps slipping off the neck because its so close to the edge. Suggestions? I've only had this thing for a day and its probably my technique...but i just wanted to make sure.

Word. It does sound tricky though. When they start throwing in the octave:x x xxx x x x x x xxx (not sure if that is totally right, but it's whats in my head atm) it just further complicates things...lol

I've got (re)Nothing, that whole album fucking slays. The section in the middle of Spasm where the drums change from the snare / kick / ride of Haake's usual style into that huge snare beat is amazing, the stunted guitar riff behind it is cool as fuck too. Totally awesome band. I should see them live in September but I'm not sure I can be arsed.

Try tapping right down onto the string, sounds like you are coming it too laterally, tap it as if you are fretting it with your right hand instead of flicking it down towards the edge of the neck and you should be ok.
