Nothing

by Meshuggah

Nothing cover art

A landmark album in extreme metal, 'Nothing' saw Meshuggah pioneer the use of 8-string guitars, fundamentally shaping the djent subgenre they helped create. The record is a hypnotic and punishing exercise in complex, polyrhythmic grooves, creating a cold, mechanical, and futuristic atmosphere. Its down-tuned, repetitive, and technically bewildering sound was a seismic shift that influenced a generation of metal musicians.
