I Meshuggah stanno per tornare sugli scaffali dei negozi di tutto il mondo con una release attesa ormai da tempo dai tantissimi fan. A 25 anni dalla registrazione del primo ep (“None”) a nome Meshuggah, la band ha deciso di festeggiare l’anniversario presentando il DVD “The Ophidian Trek”, che riunisce immagini tratte dall’ultimo tour americano ed europeo e dall’esibizione al Wacken Open Air 2013. “The Ophidian Trek” debutterà oggi, 26 settembre, nel Regno Unito ed il 30 settembre prossimo nel resto del mondo.Il concerto sarà distribuito in formato standard DVD, Blu-ray DVD e doppio CD Audio, tredici tracce in totale a costituire una scaletta che pesca da tutta la discografia della band ricostruendone così un ottimo tracciato nelle sue tappe fondamentali. Quando gli viene chiesto quali siano i nuovi progetti per i Meshuggah, Mårten Hagström risponde così:
«I have no idea, and I never do. And I think that’s a good thing, ’cause people sometimes say that we’re pretty unpredictable, but I don’t really think we are, because we have a sound that’s been with us since at least like the ‘None’ EP (from 1994), that’s very us. It doesn’t really change all that much, but it’s still a progression, and what I mean by taking a step forward is that we’re still having fun, we’ve been around now. We’re veterans in this game [laughs], and we’re still having fun with what we do, with experimenting with the music that we want to create. So as long as it feels like we’re making it better, and as long as it feels like we’re doing something that we can at least stand for and be proud of, that’s all that we ask.»In anteprima assoluta i Meshuggah hanno rilasciato uno spezzone video tratto dal concerto: “Dancers To a A Discordant System“, disponibile per la visione tramite il player youtube allegato.
