MarkHOST
And I think it's because this came out right after Chaos Sphere.
MarkHOST
The easiest thing in the world they could have done was do Chaosphere 2, but instead they covered Godflesh's songs.
MarkHOST
Was Chaosphere
EdGUEST
a big hit at the time, though, or not? I feel like that's much less love.
EdGUEST
I feel like DEI is better love, but that might be more with time.
CoreyGUEST
Also, they can't copy DEI.
CoreyGUEST
It would take much longer.
CoreyGUEST
Chaosphere, like, half the reason Gent happened was because Chaosphere is so easy to rip off.
JoeGUEST
Okay, so getting into my B tier.
JoeGUEST
At number 10, we've got Chaosphere.
JoeGUEST
So this is, of course, the late 90s.
JoeGUEST
This is the album following Destroy, Erase, Improve, which is obviously a monumental release to the heavy music scene in general.
JoeGUEST
And so Chaosphere... gets compared to Destroy Race Improve a lot.
JoeGUEST
I actually don't think the albums are all that similar within the context of Meshuggah, because they intentionally change some things.
JoeGUEST
So Destroy, Erase, Improve, you're really getting the mixture of chugging riffs and then, like, jazz escapades, you know? It's like Alan Holdsworth makes something way heavier than he's ever done.
JoeGUEST
With Chaosphere...
Misha MansoorGUEST
So it was easier to check out music.
Misha MansoorGUEST
So I checked out some stuff off Chaosphere and I was like, This is absolute fucking noise.
Misha MansoorGUEST
This is the worst thing I've ever fucking heard in my life.
Misha MansoorGUEST
Oh, I can make random loud music like anyone can do.
