Meshuggah To Release New Album in 2012!

This one seems to have passed by some of the bigger sites on  the net, so let it be our pleasure to announce that Swedish nutjobs  Meshuggah will be releasing a new album in 2012.The statement on the band's website reads thus :

"After  a long time of deep soul searching, and intense wrecking of the psyches, the new album is finally done.

Soon you will meet this colossus , that will pulverise your being"

Welcome to the other side on March 27"

Never one to mince words, this lot, and given that 2011 was most definitely the year of 'djent', a genre which Meshuggah are fondly  regarded as the forefathers of, this looks set to be one of the most anticipated releases this year. No new tracks just yet, so we'll leave you with this slice of inspired lunacy and dissonant japery . ..

ETA:March 27th 2012
