As previously reported, a new trailer for the band's video 'Bleed' is available at this location. The video was produced by Mike Pecci and Ian McFarland. The track is pulled from the band's latest album, ObZen, which was released in March.
Drummer Tomas Haake spoke to BW&BK; recently about 'Bleed': "That one was a bit awkward recording, not only because of the length but because the pattern I'm playing is hard - the kick-drums on that song is something we've never done before. I spent a lot of time practising that one. I probably practised that more than all of the other tracks together just because I had to figure out an entirely different approach to playing the bass drums. It's very direct and super-hard to play, but it's still pretty straight-forward. You can't get too catchy with Meshuggah, but in a sense it's a bit catchy."
