MESHUGGAH: U.S. Tour 'Pending'[views:11018][posts:6]_____________________________________ [Mar 22,2005 9:23am - RustedAngel ""] Pleeaaaaaaaase let this not pend, but go ahead, MESHUGGAH is the one of the sickest live bands ever. All the haters can eat dicks. Swedish experimental extreme metallers MESHUGGAH have posted the following message on their official web site: "Dear friends/fans/accidental metal-browsing drop-ins! Ridiculous long since last, we know! Just wanted to leave some long overdue droppings on the never-shiny plate that is MESHUGGAH news! We have quite a few European dates set (will be posted shortly in tour section). Among those are both club dates as well as bigger festivals etc. We don't know yet if we'll be coming over to tour the U.S this spring/summer! It's still pending and if we get good offers it might happen! If not, we'll at least look into coming over this fall! "As most of you have probably figured out, 'Catch 33' is not really a 'live material' album, but more of an experiment of sorts! So, if we'd come over to the U.S now, we'd be playing pretty much the same set as last time and we'd much rather be coming over with a fresh new set after completion of coming full-length! (no working title yet). Still, as I said — it may very well happen for 'Catch' as well! "We understand that the album or at least parts of it has leaked out! Not really a big surprise! It always seems to happen to us! Still, we're trusting and hoping that you guys will all still buy it once it's released! "We have a company working on a video for the title 'Shed', but the progress is a bit slow at the moment so we don’t really know how it's turning out! We'll keep you updated on the progress of it!" As previously reported, "Catch 33", due on May 16 in Europe and May 31 in the U.S. via Nuclear Blast Records. The follow-up to 2002's "Nothing" is being described as one continuous 47-minute song divided into 13 parts and is said to be "musically the opposite" of the group's 2004 EP, "I". "Catch 33" (view cover here) track listing: 01. Autonomy Lost 02. Imprint Of The Un-Saved 03. Disenchantment 04. The Paradoxical Spiral 05. Re-Inanimate 06. Entrapment 07. Mind's Mirrors 08. In Death - Is Life 09. In Death - Is Death 10. Shed 11. Personae Non Gratae 12. Dehumanization 13. Sum The artwork, which was designed by MESHUGGAH drummer Tomas Haake, is "a visual compliment of sorts to the album title, i.e the paradoxes/negations/contradictions of life and death (as we see it in our finest moments of unrestrained metaphoric interpretation) that the lyrics [on the new album] deal with!" according to Haake. |

I haven't heard anything yet so I have no idea. probably has something to do with the damned 8 string guitars that don't stay in tune live... |
