Upcoming Meshuggah

Well I´ll be damned! I was under the impression that the album would be released in the fall October or November, but now after reading an interview with Mårten Hagström I now know that it´s supposed to be released in early spring.
Boy am I pissed and dissapointed. I was and still am really looking forward to this album. I WANT IT NOW
I´ve never been a fan of the waiting game.

I can't believe not one of the albums by this pioneering Metal band is in the 'Top-20' of the Prog-Extreme genre.
For all the lack of knowledge I possess and what little I know of these Tech Metal bands, whether or not the band members themselves are familiar about the older bands or not, I hear lots of Zeuhl elements in Meshuggah, and King Crimson elements in Gorguts. Perhaps it's my over-active imagination, but from the many Tech bands I've looked into, these 2 are the ones that really 'move' me. And Behold -The Arctopus. I do focus on Bass so that may explain a chunk of my interest.......
I don't go for the 'growl' vocal, it just comes across as a frad immature, juvenile, a disgruntled teen whose angry at life in general, mindless Punk-rage...........just 'angry' vocals that seem to fit the music perfectly, and probably more 'pretentious' than ELP.   So, Hammond/Moog histrionics Vs. Death Growl........... Even ground, I'd say.

^I love Meshuggah, I'm not sure why they don't get much talk here, maybe they're a bit too extreme for most people on here? Anyways, I especially love 'Contradictions Collapse', 'Destroy Erase Improve', and the two most recent ones.

The gang from Umea are set to release a BRAND NEW album in Autumn (Fall). This time around, they've decided to use 15 stringed Guitars !! Is there no stopping them ??
Looking forward to this, BIG TIME
