Fredrik Thordendal of Meshuggah plays the Meathead

[SuperFlyinMonke]

Why would anyone dime the settings on the amp to make a recording?

Fucking awful...

 

[bstaley]

That was terrible. Why doesn't he just play bass.

 

[stefvorcide]

The 3 other videos are better..

 

[ihave27frets]

I used to like meshuggah, till they all started playing bass.

 

[saxxamafone]

I didn't know his strings were so loose

 

[markymarc1979]

As others have said, making an awesome amp sound like shit is a hard to thing to do, but he managed it.

 

[BlinkTwice]

Guitars tuned that low just sound awful.

IMO.

This.

 

[shred-o-holic]

Seems like he's just screwing around........listen to the laughter on the video........have some of you even listened to Meshuggah? You would know that they are pretty talented musicians......

 

[tokyo tapes]

Well, if you did notice, the first clip is the CLEAN channel dimed. That means every control of the amp on max. Of course that is going to sound a bit weird, but it also showes that Fredrik isn't your average guy and that he's always looking for new sounds.
We will post proper clips that will be professionally recorded, so stay tuned.

They did the same thing with the DAR amp. Terrible vid for both Fortin and DAR.

This sounds alot better. I'm all for detuning, but there is such a thing as too low ! I thought even SYL sounded like shit with that low 'G' string on their last two albums.

 

[Vince Sansevere]

Wow, that sounds absolutely horrible!!!! I don't even think I could get a crate practice amp to sound that bad, if I tried!

Yeah and I'd gather because this is rig talk, you don't listen to Devin either.....

I know I love the 80's but I think people would be surprised by what I actually listen to

 

[Vince Sansevere]

Come on guys, this is just a tuned down bass. You know better than this. Maybe if they played a decent guitar tuned to pitch, he'd sound good. I guess not everyone has the gift of tone though!

 

[Mailman1971]

I like alot of new metal. That video just sucked for trying to show that amp thats all.

Devin?

Never heard of him. Wasn't he in Danger Kitty back in 83?
