a stupid question...but how does this group related to zorn and modern jazz related music?
I was driving Ken Vandermak when he was in my hometown, to play with DKV. We were waiting for Hamid Drake to go out from the hotel, I was playing System of a Down in the car. It's good music when you like speeding. Ken told me "if you like this, you have to try Meshuggah, you will love it". I did. I don't "love" it, but I must admit, it's advanced and complex. The only "boring" thing is pretty flat level of "emotion", it's like most metal groups - headbanging all the time. In this particular aspect, it's opposite to jazz. __________________________________________________________________ Artur Nowak [arno at emd dot pl] www.emd.pl/muzyka
