CONTRADICTIONS COLLAPSE

Meshuggah

Tech/Extreme Prog Metal

3.14 | 86 ratings

From Progarchives.com, the ultimate progressive rock music website

Contradictions Collapse, the band's debut record, is an above average thrash metal record released in 1991, the same year Metallica released 'The Black' album and a bunch of then no-name bands from Seattle released theirs; the implication here being that in 1991, metal was undergoing a major face lift. For a metal band to survive in this 'alternative' universe, they would have to innovate. Sure, Meshuggah eventually got the message, just not in time for this record. Contradictions is a decent album, but overshadowed not only by its thrash and groove metal peers but by the innovations prevalent in Meshuggah's very own subsequent releases.
