I just got Meshuggah's "Destroy,erase, Improve" through the post today. I've listened to it once and I'm extremely impressed with the standard of playing, lots of complex rhythms perfectly executed and the guitar and drums particularly impressed me. I'm not sure I'm that into the full on metal thing though; does anyone know if Fredrik Thordendal has any solo albums? As someone mentioned on another thread it sounds like he's jazz influenced. He reminds me of a cross between George Lynch (Gruesome tapping and heavy tone) and Holdsworth (wicked legato, odd timings, creamier tone he uses in places) and he uses a lot of volume swells. If you like your metal gruesome but brainy you should check these guys out.
